Dollar Breaks Higher

Morning Report: 09.00 London

• This morning, financial markets are on the rise again, with the S&P 500 now just a day’s session away from breaking the record closing high set just three weeks ago.                                                                                                             

                               

• Elsewhere, the dollar index has broken high, extending the recent bull run to post a fresh 11 month high.
                                                                                                                                                                     
                               

• This strong dollar is in part due to the weak yen as Japanese trade balance unexpectedly widened overnight. The main yen pairs have all been pushed higher as a result.

                               
       
                               

• The British pound is recovering much of the ground lost yesterday, with the GBP/JPY one of he biggest movers today.

                               

                                    

• The main dollar pairs are all suffering at the hands of the strong dollar, with the EUR/USD and NZD/USD notable for their losses. 

                                                     
                                           
Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have the release of the most recent MPC voting patterns with no surprises expected.

• Following this we have UK CBI industrial order expectations at 11.00.

• From 13.30, we switch to the US with Canadian wholesale sales followed by the day’s main ticket – the release of the minutes from the last FOMC meeting.


Trade Idea:

• It’s hard to ignore the NZD/USD’s downside momentum at the moment, making a LOWER trade look attractive here.

                               

A LOWER trade predicting that the NZD/USD will close below 0.8375  in 7 days time could return 143%.
