Cautious Optimism


Morning Report: 06.30 London


• Markets remain cautiously optimistic after another drop in US markets overnight. Equities have recovered well off the February lows, but no-one is expecting a straight line recovery from here, especially with the ECB in ‘whatever it takes’ mode and Greece rumbling in the background. The US Dollar has staged a slow recovery this week, but this evening’s FOMC meeting minutes could prove a stumbling point.

                    

• Elsewhere, the Japanese Yen is pausing at the lows after a period of scrutiny from world markets.

                    

• In Europe, the Euro continues to hold the balance of power, with the Pound slipping back again yesterday and the GBP/JPY continuing to slide.

                    

                    

                    

                    

Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have Canadian Ivey PMI at 15.00.

• This is followed by US crude oil inventories at 15.30.

• FOMC member Mester speaks at 17.20, with FOMC minutes released at 19.00 and Bullard speaking at 23.30.

Trade Idea:

• With the US Dollar showing some stability and the yen remaining under pressure, the USD/JPY could have further to fall.

                     

A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that that the USD/JPY will close below 110.00 in 14 days time for a potential return of 132%.
