FOREX: The lacklustre first half of today's Asia-Pac session has seen G10
crosses operate within exceedingly narrow ranges. CAD has topped the G10 pile as
oil prices have ticked away from worst levels touched in the wake of yesterday's
slump. However, the loonie's oil-tied peer NOK has failed to shake off
yesterday's weakness as of yet.
- DXY has also softened a tad, moving away from yesterday's highs touched ahead
of the close.
- The Antipodeans are gaining some marginal traction at typing.
- JPY has failed to benefit from a move lower in the Nikkei 225, as U.S. equity
futures are in the green.
- Chinese Communist Party's mouthpiece China Daily wrote that "stronger
counter-cyclical measures are expected in the coming weeks" from the PBoC.
- Focus turns to Australian labour market data, German CPI and EZ industrial
output, with PBoC Governor Yi set to speak. Also noteworthy is the first round
of Tory leadership votes.
