CABLE: Risk-on rally continued through Tuesday and allowed cable to extend its
recovery. Rate met initial resistance into the $1.2265/70 area ahead of the
European close, with NY taking advantage of thinner markets post close to push
rate through, with triggered stops providing the momentum to take rate on to
$1.2296. Momentum quickly faded and rate reversed back to $1.2235 before closing
around $1.2253. Early Asia touched a low of $1.2242 before risk appetite again
emerged, overlooking some scepticism regarding Moderna's vaccine, which had been
a part of Tuesday's risk drive, which took rate back up to $1.2276 before it
settled back between $1.2259/66 into Europe.
