Gold on bearish outlook

The euro (EUR) continues to slide against the US dollar (USD) as the pair trades at just above 1.3080. The single currency has found strong resistance at 1.3140 after it had risen from a 6 month low. The pair is heavily influenced by fundamentals such as the Cyprus bailout which has set forth a new agenda for managing country’s in debt.

  • Gold (XAU) dropped a whole 150 dollars per troy ounce since Friday as the market re-evaluates its value. The yellow metal is now trading just above 1447 after news that the Central Bank of Cyprus may sell a large amount of its gold as part of a bailout deal with international lenders; such moves are incorporated in pricing in any possible effects of a Portuguese or Spanish bailout.

  • The US dollar (USD) is losing against a strengthening Japanese yen (JPY) as the US treasury urged Japan to refrain competitive devaluation. The pair, currently at 98.02 is expected by any analysts to strengthen further as Japan goes ahead with monetary easing.

  • Weekly option volatilities for the EURUSD have dropped to 8.00 as fear leaves the market amid thin news and option premiums edge lower. A good opportunity to bet on the market moving sideways.
