  2. Weidmann says that ECB should not see QE as a silver bullet FXStreet (London) - European Central Bank council member Jen Weidman put a stick in the spokes of ECB sovereign debt buying aspirations. Speaking in Madrid, the Bunesbank president said that there were “high legal hurdles” to full blown ECB quantitative easing. Weidmann said that “there seems to be a conception that there is one silver bullet out there which is buying sovereign debt.” However he said that the focus should instead be on generating economic growth in the Eurozone area.

  4. USD/MXN drops to lows near 1.1361 FXStreet (Edinburgh) - The Mexican peso is now picking up pace vs. the US dollar, dragging USD/MXN to challenge session lows in the 13.600 area. USD/MXN weaker post-data The pair lost upside momentum after the jobless rate in the Aztec economy fell to 4.78% during October vs. 5.08% previous, and the 1st half-month inflation ticked higher to 0.74% in November from 0.5%. Spot thus continues to consolidate around the key 13.6000 handle, coming down from 2014 peaks near 13.6800. USD/MXN key levels The pair is now losing 0.02% at 13.6118 with the next support at 13.5975 (low Nov.21) ahead of 13.5820 (Tenkan Sen). On the flip side, a breakout of 13.6690 (high Nov.21) would expose 13.6795 (2014 high Nov.4).

  5. Another interest rate cut from the Bank of Korea on the way? – FXStreet FXStreet (Barcelona) - FXStreet Editor and Analyst Omkar Godbole, views that post the PBoC rate cut, pressure may build on Bank of Korea to cut rates again. Key Quotes “With weak growth prospects along with CPI inflation at 1.2% in October, Korea risks importing deflation if the Yuan weakens along with the Yen. The Bank of Korea has a three‐year 2.5 to 3.5% inflation target band, but annual inflation has stayed in the 1% range since January 2013.” “The PBoC’s rate cut last week has certainly increased pressure on the central banks in Asia to act.” “However, Bank of Korea is likely to wait and watch the movement in the JPY/KRW and CNY/KRW pair. So far, both pairs are trading steady.” “The JPY/KRW is already trading at July 2008 levels. Technically, if the pair fails to rise above 10.00 levels, the Won could extend gains to 9.00 and 8.60 levels.” “The CNY/KRW pair is stuck around 181.50‐182.00 levels, after rising more than 10% since the beginning of Jan 2014.” “So far, the CNY/KRW exchange rate has not resulted in sudden and sharp appreciation of Won against the Yuan, despite China announcing a rate cut on Friday.” “A further rise in the USD/JPY pair along with a rise in the USD/CNY shall make another interest rate cut from the Bank of Korea inevitable.” OctaFX.Com - Please click here to see Financial News/Forex News on OctaFx official page Nov 24, 2014 OctaFX.Com News Updates

The Nikkei finished the day 56.65 points or 0.33% higher at 17,357.51 levels. The stocks initially came under pressure as investors booked profits as the decline in the Yen appeared to have paused.

  10. Speculators reduced their USD longs – Rabobank FXStreet (Barcelona) - The Rabobank Research team highlights the IMM net speculators positioning as at 18th November 2014. Key Quotes “Speculators reduced their USD longs a little further last week meaning that net positions are now noticeably off their recent highs. Even so, they are still twice as large as the long positions held in July. “ “EUR shorts increased again. Although they are still below their recent highs, shorts could be promoted further in the next set of data by the dovish tone of ECB President Draghi last Friday. “ “JPY net shorts rose again, though they remains below their October highs. “ “On the back of the dovish November Inflation Report from the BoE, speculators have built up short positions in sterling even further. However, the minutes of the November MPC meeting were a little less dovish than expected and this could weaken the resolve of the GBP bears a little. “ “AUD shorts consolidated at fairly elevated levels, though some support for the AUD could be drawn from Friday’s PBoC rate cut. CAD shorts lessened a touch with the tone remaining consolidative.” “CHF net shorts held largely steady despite the proximity of the November 30 referendum on SNB gold holdings which could undermine the EUR/CHF ‘floor’.” OctaFX.Com - Please click here to see Financial News/Forex News on OctaFx official page Nov 24, 2014 OctaFX.Com News Updates

  14. EUR undermined by dovish speech from ECB President Draghi – BTMU FXStreet (Barcelona) - Lee Hardman, FX Analyst at the Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi UFJ notes that euro remained at weaker levels in the Asian trading session after falling sharply on Friday following a dovish speech from ECB President Draghi before the European Banking Conference. Key Quotes "In his speech, President Draghi described in context the significant shift that has taken place in ECB monetary policy since last September and how their new instrument of asset purchases operates." "The inflation environment was described as “increasingly challenging” highlighting that he is particularly concerned that a too prolonged period of inflation becomes embedded in inflation expectations. Indicators of inflation expectation over the shorter horizon were described as “excessively low” although long-term indictors were on the whole described as still consistent with price stability”." "He reiterated that “if on its current trajectory our policy is not effective enough to achieve this, or further risks to the inflation outlook materialise, we could step up the pressure and broaden even more the channels through which we intervene, by altering accordingly the size, pace and composition of our purchases”." "The market has interpreted the comments as signalling that there is higher likelihood of the ECB implementing sovereign debt QE although there was no specific reference to it in the speech". As a result the yields on 10-year Italian and Spanish governments both declined by around 10 basis points on Friday, and EUR/USD fell sharply from around 1.2550 to just below the 1.2400-level." “Overall, the speech was consistent with our view that the ECB will likely continue to ease monetary policy which will remain a weight on the euro in the year ahead. However, the short-term euro sell off following the speech could prove to be somewhat of an overreaction."

Key Quotes “Only few weeks after the BoJ shocked the markets with a huge dose of fresh monetary policy stimulus, the People’s Bank of China unexpectedly cut its base 1-year lending rate by 40bps to 5.6% with the 1-year deposit rate trimmed by 25bps to 2.75%. “ “The PBoC also increased flexibility in the banking sector allowing banks to offer deposit rates at up to 20% above the benchmark from the previous cap of 10%. “ “While the central bank insisted that its first interest rate cut since 2012 (following somewhat insufficient targeted easing measures) is “a neutral operation and doesn’t mean any change in monetary policy direction”, it seems that China fired its first salvo in the currency war with the BoJ.” OctaFX.Com - Please click here to see Financial News/Forex News on OctaFx official page Nov 24, 2014 OctaFX.Com News Updates
  18. All eyes on the OPEC meeting at Vienna - DB FXStreet (Barcelona) - Analysts at Deutsche Bank note that the Thursday’s OPEC meeting at Vienna will be a closely watched affair with speculations going around that there will be a 1m a day cut in barrels produced. Key Quotes “There has been no shortage of news-flow around the event recently with prices declining sharply over the last couple months in anticipation that OPEC will not cut production.” “In recent weeks it appears that the camp has become split with the likes of Saudi Arabia and other low-cost producers with large FX reserves happy to run down the price to gain market share.” “On the other hand the likes of Venezuela and more recently Iran are reported (Bloomberg) as saying that they may propose a 1m a day cut in barrels produced. They are campaigning for higher prices to balance their budget and improve fiscal positions. “ “We will no doubt hear further statements this week from producers in the run up to the meeting so it’s something to keep an eye on.” OctaFX.Com - Please click here to see Financial News/Forex News on OctaFx official page Nov 24, 2014 OctaFX.Com News Updates
  19. US Session: The market left shell-shocked on Draghi FXStreet (Guatemala) - The US session was scrambling around in a panic on the back of Europe’s action with Draghi taking the spot light delivering a speech that left markets with a strong indication that we will see further easing which sent the Euro to finish up a shave away from the November lows and over 1.2% down on the US shift and close to 200 pips lower on the week.

USD/CAD was scrambling back lost ground towards the end of the NA session and back in for the mid 1.1200’s on the back of CPI for the Canadian economy and rising WTI prices. CPI year on year came in for October at 2.4% vs 2.1% expected and 2.0% previous. EUR/JPY was a big moved and made a huge correction from the 148 handle and through the Nov low at 146.39 on the back of Draghi’s comments. AUD/USD found a base on 0.8860 after a steep drift lower post its European markets highs through the 0.87 handle when China cut 1 their year lending rates by 0.4 and the 1 year deposit rates by 0.25 to 2.75% to help bolster the economy. USD/JPY remained a non-contender and only managed a sideways drift in the US session having given all that it could give from the lows on the 117 handle in Europe. Previous to that, the Yen had strengthened when Japan's finance minister gave the markets his concerns about the rapid depreciation of the currency in Asia trade. Aso said "the pace of the decline in the past week has been too fast". The pair finishes up at 117.80 into the close.

  21. USD/CAD finding support after dumping a cent FXStreet (Guatemala) - USD/CAD is trading at 1.1229, down -0.67% on the day, having posted a daily high at 1.1328 and low at 1.1190. The USD/CAD has dumped over a cent, while analysts at TD Securities explained that the pair may start to find support in the low 1.12 area after this morning’s slide below congestion (now resistance) in the mid/upper 1.12 area. “Short-term trend momentum is picking up bearishly, so the market is likely to remain biased to the downside in the short run at least”. As with the general beat of the rum, the dollar is being questioned and scrutinized in respect of whether it can sustain a rally in a disinflationary environment around the globe and how slower growth might impact the US economy and the Feds interest rate policy going forward. “A quick move back above 1.1270 would be a positive for the USD but that looks a big ask at this point”, explained the analysts at TD Securities. USD/CAD noteworthy levels Current price is 1.1230, with resistance ahead at 1.1241 (Daily Classic S2), 1.1274 (Daily Classic S1) and 1.1283 (Hourly 20 EMA).

  23. Both rates and oil currently pushing CAD – BAML FXStreet (Guatemala) - Analysts at Bank of America Merrill Lynch explained that their view for a higher USD/CAD has continued to play out in their favour, with our short-term target at 1.14 for the end of this year. Key Quotes: “While much of the Canadian dollar's drop has logically been the result of the decline in oil prices, rate differentials have also arguably played a key role”. “Our Chart of the Day looks at the daily drivers around USD/CAD since 2013, as explained either by oil or oil in conjunction with rates”. “While the value of USD/CAD explained by oil has been rising, rate differentials have also played a crucial role in explaining the weakness in Canadian dollar, as they have with many risky currencies”. “Still, we would argue that the decline in CAD may stall out going forward”. “USD/CAD is fairly close to levels that it previously approached earlier this year, when WTI was closer to US$100/barrel”. “In our view, a reversion in oil prices, as well as a relatively robust US growth picture that should ultimately benefit the Canadian economy, will help support the CAD next year”. “Of course, in the short-term, the upcoming OPEC meeting on November 27 presents substantial event risk for oil, and thus potentially impact USD-CAD”. “Moreover, deflationary risks that push the Fed into delaying rate hikes could well wind up moving the CAD higher, as the Bank of Canada currently remains locked in its current rate”. “In the medium-term, however, we still focus on both oil and a solid US outlook, which we do believe will move the Canadian dollar modestly higher, in contrast to many of our USD forecasts”.
