Fundamental analysis from New Forex: The Asia-Pacific region

The stock indexes in Asia are weakened against the background of the first steps of Trump’s migration policy which were quite tough in relation to migrants: some citizens of the Muslim countries were temporarily forbade to enter the US territory even taking into account the fact that it is possible to receive permission for residence or the visa. Besides, concerns about the fact that the USA is going to enter a trade war with China that can also alter balance of forces to the growth of world economy. The MSCI index of the region dropped by 0.4%, the Japanese Nikkei dropped by 0.4% and the Australian shares lost more than 1%. The strong yen is limited by its competitive opportunities of the Japanese exporters. Electronic mini-futures of Dow and Nasdaq Composite lost 0.3%. For today the biggest market threat is the situation of Trump’s decision to go further on the way of protectionism without paying attention to economic policy. Last time the profitability of 10-year treasury bonds was 2.4658% in comparison with 2.481 on Friday. The index of the American currency tracking cost against the trade weighted analogs has lost about 0.3% having fallen to level of 100.21.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: The Asia-Pacific region

In the markets currency wars expand and this time Trump’s administration became interested in manipulations of Japan and Germany devaluating currencies to improve trade prospects. At the same time, the American dollar fell to thirty-year minima in January in monthly expression after the American president noted essential benefits which purchase the countries due to devaluation of national currencies. The regional benchmark index of MSCI is still in flat while the Japanese shares also move according to a side trend.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: Europe

Last month the European stock indexes lost a bit in its positions and yesterday’s fall to its week minima was the culmination of sag. The cause is Donald Trump’s protectionist policy undermining more and more trade prospects of the single market every day. However, most of economists consider the European shares to be still more liquid than American no less than for the medium term. The Pan-European benchmark of Stoxx Europe 600 lost 0.7% and is traded near its week minima having fallen at 1.1% last session. Meanwhile the data on Tuesday showed that inflation in the eurozone grew almost to the target objective of the European Central Bank that emphasizes acceleration of economic growth rates of the single market while unemployment punched its seven-year minima. The common currency is traded near its week minima against the American dollar at the level of 1.0793 and with losses at 0.14%. At the same time the British pound sterling was developed and falls providing high liquidity to shares of the City of London. The Swiss franc though is stable but managed to suffer from weak data on export for the last year. The European shares will grow up while the currency weakens and in the USA a situation is similar but the European papers are more liquid and therefore the single market still advances the USA in protectionist policy but nobody knows for how long it will continue.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: The Asia-Pacific region

The stock indexes in the Pacific Rim grew to its October maxima while the American dollar grows against the background of optimistic officials statements. The U.S. Federal Reserve System is disposed to a fast interest rate development. However it didn’t occur this time. In other words, FRS takes a timeout on looking narrowly to the market prospects. The regional benchmark index MSCI escaped to its four-months maxima having closed with a surplus in 0.6% and the Japanese Nikkei closed with losses in 0.3% because of the strengthened currency. Wall Street indexes also extended today: Dow added 0.15%, Nasdaq grew up by 0.5% while S&P 500 closed with absolutely small surplus in 0.03%. The American currency is traded at the level of 113.28 against yen while the index of US dollar fell by 99.75.

Fed leaves interest rates unaffected

On Wednesday, in the first meeting since The US President Donald Trump took office, the Federal Reserve System held interest rates constant but painted a relatively upbeat picture of the U.S. economy that implied it was on track to tighten monetary policy this year. The U.S. regional bank said job gains endured stable, inflation had increased and economic confidence was increasing, although it gave no firm signal on the timing of its later rate shift. The Federal Reserve System policymakers are still waiting for the clarity on Trump’s economic policies.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: The Asia-Pacific region

The stock indexes grow in Asia correlating with growth of the American funds which received a notable boost in general prospects, bearish boost for dollar, in monetary policy of U.S. Fed. Bank shares of Wall Street got the upper hand as Trump attended to prospects of world finance having expressed intention not to allow the next financial crisis. The regional benchmark of MSCI added 0.3% where Australia grew up by 0.1%. The Japanese Nikkei added 0.2%. The prime minister of Japan Shinzo Abe will meet Trump on February 10 and 11 trade and currencies on agendas. Shares of JPMorgan Chase were closed with a surplus in 3.1% having pushed the banking sector S&P to a surplus in 2.6%. At the same time the industrial Dow Jones index grew up by 0.94% and technological added Nasdaq 0.54%. Friday data on number of workplaces in the USA showed growth considerably bigger than it was expected on January after civil engineering firms and the companies of retail trade increased hiring. However the wages rise is still slowed down. The American dollar weakened against the Japanese currency and is traded at the level of 112.48 yens having closed last week with losses of 2.33% near its six-months minima. The Canadian became stronger after Trump noted remarkable investment prospects of neighbors. The Australian dollar is in full defense that provides the Australian funds an essential impulse stimulating growth of the export-oriented companies. In the spot markets gold added 0.3% reflecting interest of large players in transactions of hedging and diversification.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: Europe

Comparison with other countries of the eurozone showed recently that the Italian economy grew up too slow as rates entered the eurozone and the gap with other countries which already came back to pre-crisis level only increases. In other words, news from the European periphery unfavourable though the Italian economy unique who dropped out of growth. Even Greece published GDP growth for 4% since 1998. Italy lost 0.4%. Germany added 26.1%. Just feel dispersion. The European stock indexes are traded without pronounced long-term trend as a result of the condensed uncertainty in the foreign exchange markets and in fiscal policy of the USA that doesn’t force investors to hedge portfolios. On this background gold also came out a flat so for many there is a sense today to observe movements in the spot market of precious metals. For today the European currency strengthened against the American dollar at the level of 1.0782 while the British pound got the upper hand of the foreign exchange markets having received a surplus against the background of updating Brexit process within which committee of the House of Commons and consequently also oppositional politicians will be able to make proposals on amendments to the relation of an order of carrying out the future vote of parliament on denouncement of member agreements from the EU. The Swiss franc as one would expect is stable against the background of the growing demand for gold and also considerable achievements in the banking sector which received a surplus against the background of Trump’s statements reflecting tendency to struggle with the prospects of growth of financial instability which can develop into the next crisis.

The Chinese shares are traded in flat according to the CSI 300 index. The Wall Street lost 0.2% being led by the energy sector which was injured because of the weakening oil prices and bargain for fresh economical and political decisions from the president Donald Trump.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: Europe

Decreasing of European shares gave a flat tire to the president of France at the wrong time that at the background of the beginning of the right National Front company which is headed by Marine Le Pen who opposes globalization and denouncement of member agreements with the European Union in particular. At the same time, the IMF predicted surplus for the Greek budget from 1.5 to 3.5% relatively by 2020 specifying the strong prospect of the European periphery recovery. Most of the IMF directors were equally of the opinion that further fiscal consolidation isn’t necessary to Greeks any more considering impressive results of reforms for today. However, at the suggestion of the Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund it was decided to allocate one more tranche in 86 billion euros in the third quarter this year to strengthen the acquired potential including the expand of a tax base according to the PIT and to rationalize pension expenses making room for the low tax rates and benefits for poor population stratums. The common currency lost for 0.2% and fell to the level of 1.07245 against US dollar. On Monday, euro lost 0.7% in intraday expression and 0.3% following the results of closing. For today the Swiss franc fell against the background of gold prices turn and lost 0.3% while the British pound trade above the majority of principal currencies. The situation in Europe is ambiguous: on the one hand, news from Greece demonstrate strengthening of the periphery; on the other hand — strengthening of euro against the background of weak US dollar undermines fiscal initiatives of the European Central Bank and supports oppositional rhetoric in France.

Fundamental analysis from New Forex: Europe

The stock indexes in Europe grow restrictedly because of political environment in France limiting investment prospects of the country.
