FOREX: UBS' FX flow monitor noted that GBP recorded the largest normalized
inflows in G10 last week, reversing from the prior 2 weeks of outflows, as the
May release of services PMI surprised to the upside.
- AUD saw inflows for a 4th week, with the largest daily inflows coinciding with
better than expected retail sales and GDP releases on Monday and Wednesday.
- JPY was net bought against both USD and EUR, while NOK and CAD also saw
inflows.
- On the other hand, EUR saw the largest net selling interest among the majors,
extending outflows to a 10th week, despite the currency strength as Italy
entered a phase of de-escalation.
- USD saw outflows despite decent ISM non-manufacturing data in May, while SEK
was sold with a moderate slow-down in services PMI.
- In EM, BRL and MXN continued to be the most sold currencies while CZK and ZAR
were most bought.
