• European markets are on the rise this morning, attempting something of a come back after China’s Black Monday. Stock markets across the world experience the worst volatility since the 2008 crisis, with Chinese equities separating from the west and slipping further this morning. Both Chinese and Western stock markets had been running too hot of late, but few expected a collapse of this nature. Concern over the future growth of China has coincided with an acute decision for the US Fed over whether to raise interest rates in September.
• Judging by the dollar’s reaction yesterday, the latest ‘taper tantrum’ may work a charm with expectations for the next hike pushing further away from next month. As such, the euro has been a big winner as the US dollar’s biggest trade weighted counterparty. As is often the case, those who fell the most are rebounding quickest this morning though, with the euro lagging.
• The commodity-related currencies were hit hardest yesterday with the AUD/JPY experiencing some wild swings.
• The yen picked up the baton of reserve currency yesterday, with big losses for the US dollar and other currencies such as the pound.
Coming up today:
• Coming up today, we have German Ifo business climate at 09.00.
• US Consumer confidence follows at 15.00.
Trade Idea:
• The GBP/AUD rose sharply yesterday as the Australian dollar bore the full brunt of the Chinese economic storm. Britain is no bed of roses, but is further removed from the problems in China.
We might see some further volatility from here, with further upside a realistic possibility.

A good way to play this is a HIGHER trade predicting that the GBP/AUD will close above 2.2200 in 35 days time for a potential return of 140%.
