CABLE: Recovery off Monday's opening low of $1.2724(just shy of Friday's low of
$1.2723-fresh YTD low) extended to $1.2791 in NY, falling just shy of Friday's
recovery high of $1.2792. Rate was sold back to $1.2742 through the Europe close
but managed to recover to $1.2770 into the close. Trade through Asia was
contained within a range of $1.2755-76, the rate picking up some demand in Tokyo
as short JPY crosses were pared. Rate trades around $1.2765 in early Europe. UK
Employment Report provides the main domestic interest, MNI looking for robust
jobs and earnings. UK CPI and UK Retail Sales also due this week, Wednesday and
Thursday respectively. Whilst attention has been on Turkey, and its potential
contagion effects on the EUR, GBP has been seen in a consolidation mode but
Brexit concerns remain in the background, a report in The Times suggests
Conservative Brexiteers plan to challenge Theresa May directly by publishing
their own "positive" blueprint for a hard Brexit. Cable support $1.2755/40 ahead
of $1.2723. Resistance remains into $1.2800.
