Australian consumer confidence appears to be slipping due to tighter household finances, talk of U.S. recession. Westpac-MI consumer sentiment index falls 8.3% in January from December. Decline largely due to rises in banks' lending rates though Westpac notes consumers also wary about strong possibility of 25bp RBA rate hike in February, plus talk of global economic slowdown. Suggests consumers may already be limiting spending ahead of possible RBA tightening in February; inflationary pressures likely to still be too strong for RBA to remain on hold. RBA rate decision due Feb. 5.

We have a potential classic double top formation at the moment with the November high.
The 1d/50P tracker put`s a rev.triger on daily close with 1,4743. Which could target the supply line from 2006 which comes in at 1,4393 at the moment. To eliminate the trend.
Daily close above 1,4893 is needed for re-evaluation.
Sited is real money stops all the way under this weeks open…
Correlation between EUR/GBP, EURUSD & GBP/USD should be monitored for clarity..
Happy trade to you ..

Since we broke the 210.xx which is quite a resistance for gbp/jpy, dont you think higher than 21o.xx looks difficult for it.. Nyam I dont know if you trade the nzd/jpy seems like wave c in on now and could see it going to 7x.xx region.

Italy cuts growth forecast amid fears of slowdown
By Guy Dinmore in Rome
Published: January 15 2008 17:17 - Last updated: January 15 2008 17:17
The Bank of Italy on Tuesday slashed its 2008 GDP growth forecast for Italy, citing a worsening global outlook dominated by the US sub-prime crisis and rising raw material costs.
In cutting its growth projection to 1.0 per cent from 1.7 per cent, the central bank’s latest quarterly bulletin also warned amidst the uncertainty of the danger of a more serious slowdown in Italy and other developed economies.
EDITOR’S CHOICE
Waste wars trash Naples’ image - Jan-15Deadline set over Naples rubbish - Jan-09Rubbish protest seals off Naples suburb - Jan-07Sardinia’s farmers fend off the sharks - Dec-04Italy’s GDP is expected to have grown around 1.8 per cent in 2007 and the government is preparing to cut its own growth forecast for this year in line with the Bank of Italy’s projection, a government official said.
Italy began to feel the full impact of the global slowdown late in the fourth quarter of 2007, the Bank of Italy said, warning of a ”concrete risk that credit conditions for firms and families may undergo a significant tightening”.
Some independent analysts estimate that Italy’s GDP growth rate slowed to close to zero in the final quarter of 2007

Westpac currency strategists expect AUD/USD to rally back to 0.9400 in 1H on widening interest rate differentials, still robust global economic growth ex-U.S. However, weaker U.S. growth likely to threaten global economic outlook in 2H, will hamper AUD/USD push to parity. Recommends buying AUD/USD on dips in 1Q, sell pair as U.S. growth threatens global growth or as AUD/USD moves much beyond 0.94. dow jones

AUD falls more than 1.5 US cents in U.S. trade on escalating risk aversion after further Citi writedowns, poor retail data. ICAP chief economist Matthew Johnson says AUD/USD likely to find support around previous resistance level of 0.8860-70. Notes high-yielding AUD is a "bellwether" for risk in current environment, still slave to U.S. economic, equities developments, with growing evidence U.S. property woes are spilling over into broader economy. But AUD "could rally very quickly if volatility dies down" Dow Jones

euro can't profit from usd weakness, looks like no one wants to buy and keep it above 1.49. Nevertheless, it is better to short the euro against the pound. Target 7250. If not short the euro against the yen.IMHO

Citigroup Reports Record Loss on $18 Billion Subprime Writedown
By Bradley Keoun
Jan. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Citigroup Inc. posted the biggest loss in the U.S. bank's 196-year history as surging defaults on home loans forced it to write down the value of subprime-mortgage investments by $18 billion.
The fourth-quarter net loss of $9.83 billion, or $1.99 a share, compared with a profit of $5.1 billion, or $1.03, a year earlier, the biggest U.S. bank said today in a statement. New York-based Citigroup also cut its dividend by 41 percent and said it will receive $14.5 billion from outside investors to shore up depleted capital.

agree with you. But remember US and UK also have the same problem, inflation and recession. If US can't bother inflation anymore, why not UK? What I think is now not much govt will concern inflation if their economy has problem. They cannot rise interest rate even the inflation is huge. To save economy is the 1st piority. If US has problem, you all also have problem. Decoupling? no way.

USA Don 10:14//I try to avoid fundamentals in justifying moves as I beleieve you can argue very reasonably for two sides of anything. But, the inflation in the UK is turning into a big nightmare. With cables move already exhibiting similar size to the Black wednesday effect, it would be dangerous for the BOE to cut too much too quickly (indeed if at all in the next meeting).
On an aside, if Trichet wanted to really show some inventiveness, a surprise cut from him would pound the Euro back to levels that would stimulate exports again and possibly turn the tide on the stagnating internal demand. He would censored off a lot of traders but he would likely be doing the right thing as inflation in the Euro zone is fast becomeing the least of his worries.

Bank of France Plays the Carry Trade?
Market News International reported today that the Bank of France netted 1.6 Billion Euros selling 105 tonnes of gold last year. The proceeds from the gold sales were invested in currencies which yield more.
The report goes on to say that the central bank governor Christian Noyer said, "We don't speculate on the price of gold"

WSJ: Citigroup is expected to announce a sizable dividend cut, cash infusion of at least $10b and write-down of as much as $20b as part of its Q4 results (due at 1130GMT) A 50% reduction would save Citigroup more than $5b a year.
The investors include the GIC, which would be the largest investor; the Kuwait Investment Authority; and Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal.
WSJ: The Chinese government's apparent rejection of a planned multibillion-dollar investment in Citigroup by state-owned China Development Bank suggests there may be limits to Beijing's status as a cash source for Western banks eager to plug holes in their balance sheets.
Vague rumours of large US Investment bank huge $25-30b write-downs triggered Asian stocks selloff.
NKS: Mizuho Corporate Bank is in the final stage of negotiations to purchase preferred shares in Merrill Lynch & Co. for about Y140b ($1.3b) by the end of the month, at the request of the US firm, it was learned Tuesday.

The stocks reversed earlier positive sentiment on news that GIC/ KIA will pump cash into Citigroup as it releases its Q4 tonight.

Is London losing its lustre?
It may be hard to sympathise with the super-rich as they pack their Louis Vuitton and arrange new visas for their Filipina maids, but London would be worse off without them and Britain would be left reeling.
The capital accounted for 20 per cent of the UK's economic growth in the past decade and it makes a net contribution to the country's finances of ÂŁ18 billion a year.
Geordie Greig, editor of Tatler, warns that if London ceases to be the best address in the world it could be a disaster. He cites a worst-case scenario in which each member of a family could be liable for tax.

Yes I agree. With the coiled energy building GBP/USD is still favored higher. Can use 2 day low for stop and if hit then re-enter on 2-day high. Otherwise it looks like a tasty treat is developing early this week for some big feasts later. Also. EUR/JPY and USD/JPY still look delicious for a move higher. Gold is a big hat sell on rally peaks. EUR/USD is poison for most now.

U.K. borrowers are being squeezed as lenders hike the cost of credit far above the Bank of England's main interest rate. One in 50 adults failed to make a payment on a personal loan in the six months to Dec. 21, 2007, an indication that personal finances are feeling the strain from higher borrowing costs, it said.
U.K. Chancellor of the Exchequer Alistair Darling said recently that he hoped financial institutions would pass on the benefit of lower BoE interest rates to their consumers.
The BoE cut rates to 5.5% from 5.75% in December but left them unchanged at the first Monetary Policy Meeting of this year last Thursday. It is widely expected to cut rates again in the coming months.
MoneyExpert.com said the global credit crunch had prompted lenders to get tougher on loan applications with some firms such as GE Money and Leeds Building Society pulling out of the unsecured market entirely.
The cost of credit is rising dramatically regardless of how much is being borrowed, it said.
The latest BoE data showed consumer appetite for debt was steady in November but the outlook for the housing market remained weak as mortgage approvals sank to a 36-month low.
