AUD/USD and NZD/USD outlook next 24 hours: NZ and Australia are devoid of data today. Ahead of the all important US non farm payrolls expect quiet trading conditions. NZD will likely be pinned between 0.8480 and 0.8530 on the day. AUD will find buyers just below 1.07 and sellers into 1.0760. Westpac’s August non-farm payrolls forecast of 20k is well below the current consensus expectation of 70k (revised down from 95k). This is, in part, due to our belief that the July outcome benefited from a number of one-offs and the near stall growth conditions in recent months.

  • Key Items- EZ- PPI.  US- Monthly Employment.

  • Thursday has seen a slew of data. The first day of the month usually sees many PMI releases. On balance, data mostly weakened from previous releases, but some were not as soft as forecast. Even the Chinese PMI data were gloomy. In general they are pointing to a global recession.

  • Its pretty clear following poor German and EZ PMI manufacturing data that both the EZ and Germany are rapidly slowing. The data suggest that the stubborn monetary policy tightening of the ECB has been a blunder and will have to be reversed in short order.

  • The EURUSD finally showed some signs of weakness  after a number of body blows over the past two days. Official U.S. opposition to the ATT-T-Mobile $40bln merger hurt yesterday as have the PMI data releases today. 

  • Later in the session, disturbing budget deficit forecasts from Greece were released. The government blamed a slowing economy for revenue shortfalls.  

  • The Wednesday August ADP Private employment statistics were softer than expected and tended to point to a sub-100K NFP number for Friday. Many have been dropping their job forecasts for Friday morning, The latest Obama jobs program is due next Thursday at eight PM Eastern U.S. time.

The latest GS NFP estimate is for +25K vs. +50K previously.

Bottom-line, the direction of revisions is for a lower figure. Look for so-called "whisper numbers" to be revised lower. I have already heard chatter about a negative print. Expect the markets to be set up for a negative outcome.

BERLIN -(Dow Jones)- Germany's government should only be allowed to agree to future euro-zone bailouts after parliament has approved them, according to a draft proposal from German coalition lawmakers seen by Dow Jones Newswires Thursday

If the German Bundestag doesn't approve, the German representative has to vote 'no,'" the draft says.

Official figures released yesterday reveal that growth in the level of home borrowing has slipped to its lowest level in more than 30 years as fearful investors opt to save rather than spend.

"The RBA is being overly optimistic about the consumer at the moment and we expect more downside surprises combined with falling home prices over the coming months will force the RBA to act," Mr Hanlan said.

- Interesting data due today. Weekly Jobless are unrelated specifically to this Friday's payroll report, but provide a very useful broader picture. The key focus for a while has been on hopes the weekly data would make a sustained move below 400K.
- One simple metric is that productivity plus population growth gives real GDP.
- Later at 14:00 GMT, the August mfg PMI is expected to fall below the "50" expansion/contraction line. Consensus estimates are for a reading of 48.5, although we have been hearing of whispers for a weaker print. We always take such chatter with a grain of salt.

10:55 GMT (Global-View.com) Sept 1 - It is hard to tell how much of the euro fall has been exaggerated by thin end-of-summer liquidity. This may have to wait until the end of the week to see if eur/usd closes below 1.4325, which would produce an outside week key reversal.

In the meantime, it faces a key support area at 1.4265 (trendline/triangle bottom - see chart) and 1.4257 (Aug 19 low), suggests 1.4250 will also be important with little in the way of support below it until 1.4200 (psychological) and 1.4101.

We like to see the various PMIs because they are more or less comparable to each other and provide rough relative comparisons and a global snapshot of growth. On balance, before the U.S. data are released it looks like the global economy is in a contractionary phase. Even the Chinese PMI data were gloomy. 

  • Its pretty clear following poor German and EZ PMI manufacturing data that both the EZ and Germany are rapidly slowing. The data suggest that the stubborn monetary policy tightening of the ECB has been a blunder and will have to be reversed in short order.
