FOREX: Following the midterm election results and a relatively noisy Asian
session, we have seen broad USD weakness across the G10, with every other G10
currency outperforming the dollar. Indeed, the USD weakness continues at the
time of writing with most currencies at their session highs against USD.
- NZD has been the outperformer following very strong employment data with eyes
turning to the RBNZ decision later today where a neutral bias is likely to be
reiterated.
- The market is also looking towards tomorrow's Fed decision where changes to
the statement are likely to be minor. However, adjustments to the IOER could
well be discussed, although this will more be a story for the Minutes with no
press conference tomorrow.
- Risk has been rallying elsewhere today with European equity markets and
commodities moving higher through the session and yields falling.
