Chinese PMI Reassures


Morning Report: 06.30 London


• Despite Premier Xi officially lowering growth targets, China has offered some reassurance this morning. Chinese Caixin services PMI came in above expectations, while Australian trade balance (Often seen as a China proxy) expanded less than expected. The Aussie Dollar is bidding higher as a result.


• By contrast, the NZD/USD is on the back foot and for the first time in weeks is under performing is Australian peer.
                      

• Meanwhile, the Euro continues to slip lower ahead of a busy economic calendar.

 

Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have ECB president Draghi speaking at 08.00.

• This is followed by UK services PMI at 09.30.

• The big news comes at 13.15 with US ADP non farm employment change. US and Canadian trade balance follows at 13.30.

• Following this at 15.00, Fed Chair Yellen speaks at 15.00, with non-manufacturing PMI at the same time.

• This evening, RBA governor Sevens speaks at 20.25.

Trade Idea:

• The EUR/GBP continues to struggle as slower growth haunts policy makers. The British economy is still no bed of roses, but remains on a positive interest rate trajectory.

                      

A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that the EUR/GBP will close below 0.7000 in 14 days for a potential return of 298%.
