Is it a new wave for Gold?

EURUSD

The pair was fluctuating yesterday in the tight range of 40 points, but managed to come back to the starting levels by the end of the day. However, this can be considered as a small sign for changing of market sentiments since we have monitored the stable pair decline from the beginning of the week. As a whole we can admit that the pair has stabilized with the resistance level 1.1150 and has gained almost 70% after FOMC comments last week and 38.2% from the total pair rally that happened during ECB and FRS decisions. Unemployment Claims from yesterday’s release were more…

Dollar returns its levels

EURUSD

The pair continues its slow upward movement. Market analysts emphasize that Federal Reserve officials insist on two rate increases against “less than one” during this year that is factored into interest rate futures quotes now. Though, remarkably steady downtrend of the pair after peaks on March 17 is visible from the first sight to the chart. Non-exchange character of Forex doesn’t allow us to assess the volumes that came through this decline. But we assume they were quite significant.

GBP suffers again from Brexit

Yesterday the pair got the blow as a result of the terrorist attack and obviously low economic indices. In spite of the fact that Ifo indicator was better than expected and reached 106.7 level, its movement looks more like rebound from the last month lows rather than real trend turn. Meanwhile, German Manufacturing PMI decreased from 50.5 to 50.4 and could not reach the forecasted of 50.9. The same French index has fallen below 50 for the first time since last August, appearing now at 49.6 though predicted level was 50.2. Economic sentiment as well could not show investors delight more…

Euro declines without news

EURUSD

As before Federal Reserve’s announcement about interest rate, pair EURUSD slowly declines without news releases. The reason is the demand growth for risky assets that encourages borrowings in EUR which stands as a funding currency. Though, it’s important to realize that scope of Euro weakening is less than the two previous escalation impulses caused by ECB and FRS. To boost selling of common currency market participants, probably, willing to have more heavy reasons that will create bearish approach for euro. This is blocked by the confidence of the market that interest rate will reach the lowest boarder received as hints from more…

Clearer deflation in Europe

EUR/USD

The EU inflation keeps slowing down. The most important news here came yesterday from Germany, which didn’t see any price growth in November after the decline by 0.3% a month before. Yet, the annual inflation rate dropped to 0.6%. Last time inflation was that low at the end of 2009 because of the economic meltdown and cut in consumer spending. Now the situation is a bit different. The unemployment level is the lowest since the time of Germany’s reunification, as was shown in the employment report for November. Besides, it was messaged that the number of the unemployed had decreased again more…
