Markets Quiet as Osborne Lays Out 5 Point Plan


Morning Report: 07.00 London

• Markets are thankfully quiet this morning after a weekend of relative calm from the UK. The Conservative government looks to be settling into a leadership contest, while chancellor Osborne outlines his 5 point post Brexit plan which includes cutting corporation tax to 15%. There is still much uncertainty, but markets appear more comfortable with the unknowns.The pound is largely unchanged this morning.

                    

• The euro continues to capitalise on the Brexit result, holding on to gains made in recent weeks.

                    

                    

                  
• The USD/JPY  has nudged up as risk appetite increases slightly, with the US dollar slipping lower with investors no longer needing such safe havens.

                   
        

                                  
                   
 
• The Australian dollar continues to hold up well despite a hung parliament following recent elections.

                   
 

                   


Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have UK construction PMI at 09.30.
• We also have a US bank holiday today which may reduce volatility.

Trade Idea:

• This morning, Silver has broken $21 for the first time since July 2014, outstripping its sister commodity gold by some margin recently.
   
                       

However, there are signs of stability across politics and global markers which may reduce demand for the precious metal. In addition, silver has a history of at least pausing after rapid rallies such as this.
A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that silver will close below $19.50 in 25 days for a potential return of 202%.
