internationallove Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Market News More Forex news & analytics at FX Bazooka RBNZ: upward pressure on NZD may ease The Reserve Bank of New Zealand’s Deputy Governor Grant Spencer said mortgage-lending restrictions introduced this month could ease upward pressure on NZD by reducing the magnitude of interest-rate increases. The lending limits, which took effect Oct. 1, mean that only one in 10 new mortgages issued by banks in New Zealand is allowed to exceed 80% of a home’s purchase price. The Reserve Bank introduced the limit in an attempt to cool the housing market without raising rates from a record low and hurting the nation’s economic recovery. Have a profitable trade with FBS!

Aussie rose as the RBA kept neutral tone. If Australian dollar settles above Sept. highs at $0.9524/28, it might have chance to rise to $0.9580 (May 2012 low) and $0.9565 (June 14 high), though we believe the upside to be limited by $0.9700/15 (50% Fibo).

internationallove Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Market News More Forex news & analytics at FX Bazooka We won’t see a big USD relief rally There’s now more optimism according on the US as a plan to solve the problem is discussed in Senate. This supports USD versus JPY and CHF and weakens it versus higher-yielding currencies like AUD and NZD. Societe Generale: “People have been building dollar long positions, giving consideration to the risk of not having dollars when a deal will eventually be signed.” However, the uncertainty remains as any deal would have to win approval in the House of Representatives, where there will likely be stiffer resistance from conservative Republicans who demand more spending cuts. Praevidentia Strategy: “This is unlikely to lead to a sustainable rally in the dollar and shares. US policy makers are just kicking the can and we will have another showdown in January. Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for the Fed to reduce its stimulus.” Have a profitable trade with FBS!

internationallove Posted October 15, 2013 Author Share Posted October 15, 2013 Market News More Forex news & analytics at FX Bazooka Goldman Sachs: outlook for GBP According to strategists at Goldman Sachs, GBP/USD will hit $1.6800, $1.6900 and $1.6500 in 3, 6 and 12 months. "The UK has experienced a substantial improvement in activity indicators in recent months. Part of this may be related to a recovering Euro area economy and part linked to the acceleration in credit growth. The composite PMI stands at close to the highest level since the mid-1990s. This economic strength will likely support capital inflows, which would offset some of the external vulnerability linked to the relatively large current account deficit," they explain. However, Goldman believes that pound's ability to strengthen versus the euro is limited. Analists expect EUR/GBP to trade at $0.8200, $0.8300 and $0.8500 in 3, 6 and 12 months.

According to the specialists, there’s room for some more advance to $0.9680, and the market still seems bid. A decline below $0.9465 and $0.9410 would be a sign of a deeper correction down.
