MNI (London)
EURO-DOLLAR: Eventual break of $1.1350 reported to have triggered stops as the
barrier at this level was taken out. Rate extended lows to $1.1330 before rate
recovered to $1.1347 ahead of the close. This correction extended to retest the
broken barrier level at $1.1350 but failed to edge above. Rate eased to $1.1335,
recovered to $1.1346 before EM easing, led by USD/TRY and USD/ZAR, acted to take
rate through Tuesday's low to a fresh YTD low of $1.1320, though traders did
note decent demand encountered from around $1.1327. Early Europe has probed down
to $1.1317, currently trades back around $1.1330. Apparent support may indicate
option interest at the $1.1300 being defended. Resistance remains at $1.1350. EM
remains a key driver, market to be on headline watch, especially into the
afternoon and possible US Trump tweets. US Retail Sales at 1230GMT provides main
data focus on the day.
