Emerging Market Jitters Hit Home

Morning Report: 08.45 London

• Markets are on the back foot right now as investors switch into safe harbours and drop riskier assets, especially emerging market currencies. The Turkish Lira hit a record low, while the Argentine Peso came under pressure. Worries over China’s economy have generally hit home, with the S&P 500 suffering large falls yesterday, alongside a major sell off in the US dollar.







• This morning, its the China related pairs that are feeling the heat, with the AUD/JPY down by 0.93% and the AUD/USD by 0.78%.

 



• Likewise gold is off by 0.47%, with silver down by 0.25%. The yen pairs are generally quieter after the USD/JPY came in for some heavy selling yesterday.




 

 Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have the latest BBA mortgage approvals at 09.30, followed a speech from BOW governor Carney at 12.05.

• Canadian core CPI follows at 13.30.

• From 14.00, we have Belgian NBB business climate followed by a speech from ECB president Draghi at 17.00.

Trade Idea:

• The AUD/USD has been tumbling heavily, but the closely correlated NZD/USD has so far failed to match the selling pressure. The NZD/USD out performance is unlikely to continue, so a LOWER trade could be the best bet here.


 

A LOWER trade predicting that the NZD/USD closes below 0.8225 in 3 days time for a potential return of 162%.
