WTO Cuts 2011 Trade Forecast On Rising Downside Risks The World Trade Organization (WTO) on Friday reduced the trade forecast for this year to 5.8 percent from its earlier 'conservative' estimate of 6.5 percent, citing rising downside risks. According to economists at the global trade body, trade has grown more slowly than expected in recent months and the outlook for the global economy is increasingly uncertain. WTO Director-General Pascal Lamy urged member countries to remain vigilant. "This is not the time for go-it-alone measures," he said. "This is the time to strengthen and preserve the global trading system so that it keeps performing this vital function in the future." More FOREX-news on pages InstaForex.Com

Euro Falls On Worsening Sovereign Debt Crisis The euro fell against its major counterparts in the Asian session on Monday amid concerns about debt worries in the euro zone following a lack of progress in the bailout efforts. The European finance ministers, who wrapped up two days of talks in Wroclaw, Poland, on September 17 said they would push back a decision on whether Greece should get its next payment from last year's $151 billion bailout package until next month. Greece needs the payment to avoid defaulting on its debt, an event that would undermine the global economic recovery and hurt banks that hold Greek debt. The euro also fell on worries that the ongoing credit woes in the euro zone will result in a marked slowdown in the global economic recovery. Reports suggested that Greek Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos will hold official talks today with European Union and International Monetary Fund inspectors on its eligibility for next aid payment due next month. The euro hit 5-day lows of 104.99 against the yen and 1.3649 against the greenback, compared to Friday's close of 105.91 and 1.3789, respectively. The next downside target level for the euro is seen at 104.00 against the yen and 1.35 against the greenback Against the pound, the euro fell to a 5-day low of 0.8694 and the pair held steady thereafter. The pair is now trading at 0.8706, compared to last week's close of 0.8736. If the euro drops further, it may target the 0.865 level. The European currency fell to as low as 1.2058 against the franc and a 1-week low of 1.6531 against the kiwi. On the downside, the euro may target 1.20 against the franc and 1.64 against the NZ dollar. At Friday's close, the euro was worth 1.2095 against the franc and 1.6641 against the kiwi. The Eurozone construction output data for July is due in the European session From the U.S., NAHB housing market index for September is expected in the New York session.

ECB Likely To Scale Back Rate Hikes: Capital Economics The European Central Bank, or ECB, is most likely to reverse its recent rate hikes due to weak economic outlook and fading upside risks to price stability, Jennifer McKeown, a senior economist at Capital Economics, said. ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet's statement that the risks to price stability were now balanced rather than on the upside has confirmed that the bank's earlier policy tightening bias has disappeared entirely, McKeown noted. ECB hiked the interest rates twice this year to contain inflationary pressures. The updated ECB staff forecast now signals a slower growth for the Eurozone this year and the next. As per the revised forecasts, the economy is expected to grow between 1.4 percent and 1.8 percent in 2011 and between 0.4 percent and 2.2 percent in 2012. However, McKeown noted that the economy will slow much more dramatically than even the ECB's new forecast implies as the decline in euro-zone export orders and the recent slump in consumer confidence seems to confirm that consumers will not pick up the slack.

UK Construction Activity Eases In August UK construction sector activity slowed more than expected in August, latest survey results from Markit Economics showed Friday. The headline Markit/CIPS purchasing managers' index for the construction sector fell to 52.6 in August from 53.5 in July. Economists expected the index to edge down to 53.2. A PMI reading above 50 indicates expansion of the sector, while a reading below 50 suggests contraction. This was the lowest score in the current eight-month sequence of expansion. Both employment levels and sub-contractor usage continued to fall during the latest survey period. Input price inflation picked up to a three-month high and the rate of increase was sharp and above the series trend. Reflecting weaker increases in both output and new business, expectations for activity weakened to its lowest level in eight months. More FOREX-news on pages InstaForex.Com
