We are seeing red across all sectors on the US stocks as the trading session begins, so let’s have a look at the FX market movers and shakers. Currency markets have been calmer than usual, biggest move is a gain of just point 46% and it’s posted by Australia/New Zealand. The pair retreated after 7 o’clock, but it continued moving higher once again shortly afterwards. Australian retail sales grew in line with market expectations and Ozzy Dollar is having a generally bullish day ahead of the RBA monetary policy statement. Investors are putting their bets on a March rate hike by the Fed and Greenback is mostly higher. Japanese Yen is only a fraction South of the top advancer and it’s trailed closely by the Canadian Dollar. Euro Zone retail PMI slipped below the 50 threshold, but Sentix investor confidence surprised on upside and Euro is almost level with the Swiss Franc. UK Sterling is up only from the Kiwi Dollar, which is currently the most bearish of the 8 majors on the table. Moving on to longer term performance charts, Euro/New Zealand has had a bullish week and the pair has gained a total of 2.76%. New Zealand/Greenback tops the bearish section with a decline of 2.45%. Australia/New Zealand has gained the most ground over a month and the pair is up by almost 4%. Sterling/Australia is the top decliner and a couple more pairs show similar drops. I’m Jessica Walker and this wraps up Tuesday’s report, but do click back tomorrow when we’ll be back with more on FX markets. Goodbye.
