Markets cautious ahead of ECB
Morning Report: 08.30 London
• This morning, financial markets are generally cautious ahead of today’s ECB meeting. Analysts mostly expect the ECB to stand pat, but there is an outside chance of further rate cuts. On the subject of rate cuts, the AUD/USD continues to weaken, hitting its lowest levels since 2011 on increased speculation that further Aussie rate cuts are in the offing. The AUD/USD is down 0.55%, with the AUD/JPY down 0.43%.
• Coming up today we have German Factory orders due at 11.00, with a drop of 1% expected.
• We have two rate statements today, starting with the Bank of England at 12.00, followed by the ECB at 12.45. The press conference follows at 13.30.
• US unemployment claims are released at 13.30 also.
Bet Idea:
• The AUD/JPY continues to struggle, as the Australian economy reels from unravelling resour ce boom. A future rate cut is starting to be priced in, but may not be fully priced up yet.
