FOREX: UBS' FX flow monitor notes that CHF was the most bought G10 currency on a
normalized basis last week, with the heaviest daily inflows seen on the same day
as stronger-than-expected PMI data.
- The monitor notes that USD was bid for a fifth straight week, registering only
one day of outflows on Wednesday, coinciding with the FOMC statement.
- GBP was marginally bid despite relatively soft PMI data as CAD was bought for
a third week in a row, bolstered by strong inflows on Tuesday around the Feb GDP
release.
- NZD was the most sold on a normalized basis, registering outflows for a third
week with net selling interest throughout the week.
- EUR was net sold for the fifth week in a row, following heavy outflows
coinciding with a modest CPI print on Wednesday.
- SEK saw outflows for a second week as JPY daily flows were mixed.
- NOK registered a fifth week of outflows despite further Norges hawkishness and
AUD was marginally sold.
