Fundamental review of the Forex market for November 15, 2013

Yesterday data on GDP growth was worse than expected. On the whole, the GDP grew 0.1% vs. forecast for 0.2% and 0.3% in the second quarter. In France it declined 0.1% vs. expectations for a growth 0.1%; in Germany it was in line with the forecast, 0.3%, in Italy it was -0.1% vs. -0.2%; in Portugal it rose 0.2% vs. forecast for -0.5%. Greece GDP increased by 5.12% vs. 9.66% in the second quarter. Even in Cyprus improvement was registered; it dropped 0.8% vs. -1.8% in the second quarter. The first reaction was decline of the euro, however, when the negative data on US Trade Balance was issued (-$41.8 billion vs. -38.7 billion in August), the euro reversed.

In the United Kingdom data on Retail Sales in October was disastrous; -0.7% vs. forecast for 0.0% and growth for 0.6% in September. However, when the US session was opened the British pound was bought. We do not consider that the difference in $3.1 billion could provide such a strong effect on the investors. The fact is that yesterday the US Treasury arranged settlement of 3-, 6-month and 4- and 5-week notes totaling $99 billion and the US dollar was restrained from strengthening in order to make the payments using more cheaper rate. During her speech to the US Senate, Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Janet Yellen left open the possibility that the central bank could reduce the interest rate it pays on bank reserves as a way of aiding the economy. Thus, she only said the economic indicators may influence the Fed’s decision on the bond purchase program. She dropped a hint about the fact that by December such indicators might not exist.

Today at 13:00 UTC+4 Trade Balance in Italy in September is published, forecast 1.63 billion vs. 0.96 billion in August. Consumer Price Index in October is expected to be flat, 0.7%, Core CPI is expected with a slight decrease, 0.8% against 1.0%.

At 18:15 UTC+4 Capacity Utilization in the US in October is revealed, it is forecast to be flat, 78.3%. Volume of the Industrial Production is expected to be lower, 0.1% vs. 0.6% in September.

There is no news for the United Kingdom today.

Thus, we expect the consolidation of the euro and the pound with downward pressure, as there is no necessity to keep the US dollar from strengthening at the moment.

USD/JPY.

Our fears pertaining to close of the longs by the investors amid Yellen’s speech in the US Senate were in vain.  S&P500 grew 0.51%, the yen climbed 73 points. Today Nikkei 225 by 7:00 UTC+4 has added 1.52%.

A new estimate of the published yesterday data on Japan’s GDP in the third quarter in the Japanese mass media should be mentioned. As we have already said the structure of the GDP structure worried the investors, then main accent is done on the wage growth (0.5% a year), increase of the employment rate and bright perspectives for the fourth quarter and the whole 2014 (the GDP growth in the fourth quarter is expected to be 3.3%).

Relevant data on Japan and the US is published on Wednesday. In Japan it is trade balance and PMI, Retail sales and Real estate sales in the US.

 

Up to November 20 we expect preservation of bullish outlook and the growth of the price to the areas 100.45/60 and 100.85/95.

EUR/USD。六月非農就業數據告訴我們什麼?

週四公佈的美國勞動力市場報告結果相當矛盾,儘管市場對此的解讀偏向於支持美元。展望未來,值得注意的是,儘管交易者反應樂觀,但拋售歐元/美元仍是一項風險策略——維持價格向南回調階段的多頭頭寸仍然是首要任務。

儘管美元連續第二天溫和上漲,美元/日圓匯率仍承壓,逼近144.00關口。 隨著美國和越南達成貿易協定,全球風險情緒改善,削弱了對日圓作為避險資產的需求。

美國經濟的警鐘

昨日的美國就業數據對美國經濟來說是一個警鐘。報告顯示,6月的就業人數出現兩年多來的首次下降,這主要是由服務業的工作崗位流失所造成的。
