FOREX: All quiet on the Asia-Pac front so far. NZD sits at the bottom of the G10
pile, having pared some of the gains registered just ahead of the NY close on
the back of a beat in the local retail sales data. USD marginally outperforms in
the space, while USD/JPY has inched higher upon the breach of its 200-DMA. All
G10 crosses have stuck to very tight ranges.
- Central bank rhetoric has failed to move markets, nothing really new in
speeches from Fed Chair Powell and RBA Dep Gov Debelle.
- Focus turns to U.S. Conf. Board consumer confidence, wholesale inventories and
new home sales, Swedish PPI and German Gfk consumer confidence. We will hear
from RBA's Lowe, ECB's Coeure and Wunsch, Riksbank's Skingsley and Ohlsson, as
well as Fed's Brainard.
