FOREX
EM BulletHomepagemarkets-real-timeEmerging Market NewsBulletMarketsFixed Income BulletsForeign Exchange Bullets
  • Stronger-than-expected US consumer confidence provided the greenback with a temporary boost on Tuesday, however, the USD index looks set to close lower on the session, after notably piercing the 200-dma support of 104.41 earlier in the session. SEK has outperformed its G10 peers, rising around 0.7% against the dollar.
  • With Eurozone inflation data highlighting the calendar over the next 48 hours, EURUSD has traded solidly, continuing to operate around 1.0875. The current trend condition is bullish following a bear channel breakout on May 15 - price cleared the top of a channel drawn from the Dec 28 high. Sights are on 1.0933 next, a Fibonacci retracement.
  • USDCNH traded firmer again in early London hours, extending recent outperformance and putting the pair to new monthly highs at 7.2642. Today's price action narrows the gap with next major resistance into 7.2739.
  • SEK extends recent outperformance to press EUR/SEK below the 200-dma of 11.4988 – and looks set to close below this average for the first time since early April.
  • Australian April CPI will be a focus for the APAC docket on Wednesday after the RBA revised up its Q2 forecast for both headline and core to 3.8% and cited upside risks to inflation. Last week’s move lower in AUDUSD appears to have been a correction and a bullish cycle that started Apr 19 still remains in play. The pair has recently breached a key short-term hurdle at 0.6668, the Mar 8 high, strengthening a bullish theme and a resumption of gains would open 0.6751, a Fibonacci retracement. On the downside, support to watch lies at 0.6581, the 50-day EMA.
