FOREX: UBS' FX flow model shows that USD was the most heavily bought G10
currency on a normalized basis last week, experiencing its heaviest inflows in
the early part of the week, coinciding with the move higher in 10-Year yields.
- JPY was bid for the second straight week, with buying interest in the latter
part of the week.
- EUR was net sold for the fourth straight week, with the strongest outflows
observed ahead of the ECB meeting.
- GBP saw marginal outflows, led by heavy selling interest on Friday following
the soft GDP data.
- Unsurprisingly, NZD was the most sold, registering net outflows for the second
straight week. AUD also saw outflows, with the most substantial selling seen on
Tuesday, coinciding with weaker-than-expected inflation data. CAD also saw
inflows despite a relatively quiet week data-wise.
- SEK experienced selling interest every day last week, with the heaviest
outflows noted in lieu of the Riksbank's policy meeting. NOK was also sold for
the fourth straight week.
