Japanese inflation might reach BoJ’s 2% target by 2016 – BNPP FXStreet (Barcelona) - Raymond Van der Putten of BNP Paribas, views that Japanese macro wage growth in 2015 and 2016 might aid inflation to reach BoJ’s 2% target by 2016. Key Quotes “In addition to energy prices, wages are an important determinant for price trends. In 2014, they rose by 0.7% higher. All attention is now on the spring wage offensive (shunto).” “As last year, the government is calling on enterprises to do their utmost to implement pay hikes. As the labour market has become very tight, we expect that at the shunto wages will be hiked in FY 2015 by an overall 2.6% (against 2.2% in FY 2014). These talks affect union workers only at relatively large companies and account for just 17.5% of the country’s labour force. It is, however, likely that these increases will also spread to other sectors.” “Macro wage growth could reach 1.6% in 2015 and 2.8% in 2016. In this scenario, inflation could reach the BoJ’s 2% objective in the course of 2016.” OctaFX is nominated for the Best Broker and Most Reliable Broker titles in the year 2014.

Key Quotes “In the US, the focus is on tomorrow’s retail sales.

Crude might extend its correction to around $60/barrel – BBH FXStreet (Barcelona) - According to BBH, crude oil’s correction is not over yet and the price might extend to around $60/barrel. Key Quotes “While we are not convinced a significant low is in place, technical considerations suggest the correction is not over either. We envision another 10% rally that would lift the March crude oil futures contract to around $60.” “Output has not been cut. Nor has demand meaningfully increased, and inventories are still rising.” “Baker-Hughes reports another 83 oil rigs were shut down, leaving 1140. The rig count peaked in October at 1609. Last week was the ninth consecutive week that rigs have been shuttered and 14 of the past 17.” “While there are 30% fewer rigs, output remains near its peak at 9.2 mln barrels a day. Rigs are used to drill the well and are only tangentially related to output. However, the shale wells have a shorter life span, and the rig count speaks to the exploration and future production.” “The decline in rigs appears to be concentrated among the less productive fields and vertical rigs. That said, through last week, horizontal rigs have fallen for eleven consecutive weeks.” “Last week's loss of 80 horizontal rigs is the largest drop since 1991. It leaves 1088 still operating. Seasonal forces peak soon.” “Meanwhile, the US refinery strike is expanding. This may boost oil inventories if the refinery shutdowns prevent the production of gasoline and distillates, like heating oil.” OctaFX is nominated for the Best Broker and Most Reliable Broker titles in the year 2014.

Oil prices still the core driver of CAD near-term – Scotiabank FXStreet (Barcelona) - Camilla Sutton CFA, CMT, Chief FX Strategist at Scotiabank, comments that CAD is up, digesting stronger oil prices and a slightly improved global growth outlook. Key Quotes “CAD is up, but has traded in a relatively narrow range during the Asian and European sessions.” “Oil prices are up, flirting with a break above the 50‐day MA, which would mark an important turn in oil prices and CAD.” “Correlations between CAD and oil remain high; however on short term metrics they are well off their highs. The rolling 30‐day correlation between oil and CAD has dropped down to 0.44, the lowest level in almost three months. As oil has rallied over 20% from its lows, CAD is up just 2.5%, in part reflecting ongoing uncertainty in where oil prices will ultimately settle.” “We continue to see oil prices as one of the core drivers of near‐term CAD.” “Employment data was disappointing in the details for Canada and warns of an uneven backdrop. This week in Canada the focus will be on housing data, starting today with housing starts; followed by manufacturing data to be released on Friday.” “USDCAD short‐term technicals: mixed—USDCAD has shifted back from its highs and the MACD has shifted to a sell signal; however other studies have not turned and the candlestick pattern reflects some indecision with large intraday moves, simply retraced the following day.” “Support lies at the recent low of 1.2352 and resistance lies at the recent high of 1.2644.” OctaFX is nominated for the Best Broker and Most Reliable Broker titles in the year 2014.

IMM Net Speculators’ Positioning - Rabobank FXStreet (Barcelona) - The Rabobank Team reviews the IMM Net Speculators’ positioning data as at 03 February 2014, noting that EUR and AUD net shorts increased while JPY, CHF and GBP shorts edged lower, with USD long positions consolidating near its highs. Key Quotes “Long USD positions consolidated at their current very high levels in the approach to last week’s US January labour report.” “Meanwhile EUR shorts increased even further though they are still below their June 2012 highs. When the SNB stepped away from its EUR/CHF 1.20 floor in mid-January one large EUR buyer was removed from the market. In addition, ECB QE confirmation and Greek political concerns have undermined the EUR.“ “Net JPY shorts dropped for a third week and are now substantially below last month’s highs. Geopolitical worries and concerns over world growth have tempered the bears and increased demand for the yen as a safe haven.” “Net GBP shorts edged lower. Pre-election uncertainty remains a negative sterling factor. However, signs that UK consumption is being lifted by lower food and energy prices could lend a little support as could the fact that UK assets still offer some yield.” “AUD net shorts increased to their highest level since Jan 2013 after the RBA cut interest rates. Net CAD rose again, oil prices remain a dominating factor.” “CHF net shorts dropped again following last month’s SNB’s surprise policy decision.” OctaFX is nominated for the Best Broker and Most Reliable Broker titles in the year 2014.

OPEC cuts non-OPEC oil supply forecast FXStreet (Mumbai) - The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) lowered its estimate for non-OPEC supply growth in 2015 as US drillers are expected to pump less oil after the collapse in oil price. The group lowered its estimate for non-OPEC supply growth by about 400,000 barrels a day, led by a reduction of 130,000 a day in the US. Supply estimates for Colombia, Canada and Yemen were also trimmed. “The main factors for the lower growth prediction in 2015 are price expectations, a declining number of active rigs in North America, a decrease in drilling permits in the US and a reduction in the 2015 spending plans of international oil companies,” OPEC’s Vienna-based research department said in its monthly market report. US supply estimates The supply from the US will increase 820,000 barrels a day in 2015 to 13.64 million a day, which is the half of the gain recorded in 2014. The estimate for total non-OPEC supply growth in 2015 was cut by 420,000 to 850,000 a day. The group expects the Global oil demand will increase by 1.17 million barrels a day, or 1.3%, in 2015 to 92.32 million barrels a day OctaFX is nominated for the Best Broker and Most Reliable Broker titles in the year 2014.

More easing expected in China, growth to tick lover – Deutsche Bank FXStreet (Edinburgh) - Economists at the German lender Deutsche Bank expect the Chinese growth to slow its pace in H1 and the PBoC to ease further in the upcoming periods. Key Quotes “The RRR cut is broadly in line with our expectation, though it happened one month earlier than we expected”. “We reiterate our view that the economic growth will surprise on the downside in H1. We cut our GDP forecast for Q1 to 6.8% on January 5 (consensus 7.2%), as the economy faces a "double whammy" due to property slowdown and a fiscal slide”. “We expect more easing measures to come. We continue to expect another RRR cut of 50bp in Q2. We also continue to expect two interest rate cuts, but we revise our call on timing, and expect the two cuts to happen in March and Q2, instead of Q2 and Q3”. “The RRR cut likely releases liquidity of RMB640bn into the bank sector. We think the impact on the real economy is positive but it is not enough to stabilize the economy, as it helps to raise loan supply but loan demand may remain weak”. “We expect the fiscal stance to loosen in coming months, with central government fiscal spending picking up and quasi-fiscal spending through policy banks rising. If such fiscal policy loosening does not materialize, we see downside risks to our GDP forecast of 7% for 2015”.
