IMPACT ITEMS: CA- CPI, US- University of Michigan Survey
- Japanese
GDP grew .0.9% q/q (+3.50% pa) in 1Q13 after a revised
+0.30% gain in 4Q12 (+1.0% pa) in 4Q12. The 1Q13 DP
deflator was -1.2%, which is a net ADDITION to GDP.
- The Fed's Williams said in the
NY afternoon that the central bank might be able to trim its bond
purchases by the summer.
- Weekly jobless claims rose,
unwinding a lot of their recent gains. They came in at +360K in the
month, above tour 350K benchmark.. Housing data were mixed,but the
underlying data were strong. CPI data were tame in line with the
PPI report released on Wednesday, The Fed should not be having any
inflation concerns driving future policy decisions.
- The purpose of the latest Fed
signal was to
desensitize markets to the QE tapering announcement when it comes.
Expectations for an eventual end to QE has weighed on bond prices.
- Friday caps off a busy week
with Canadian CPI data and the University of Michigan

Analysis of the monthly chart reveals two major trend lines that lie at 108.66 and 112.27. This creates a powerful area of resistance. The long-term fair value chart shows that the beginnings of a long period of sideways price movement lurks just above par at 100.48. This level is significant as it is what I call a "Bull Trap." Traders see the break above a key technical level at par and think a new, higher leg is developing, only for price to reverse sharply. A close above 102.00 would then target the 112.12 distribution lows, and potentially the fair value from the 2001 highs at 117.96. Key support is at Friday's low at 0.9822.

Agree red. I'm staying away from USD/JPY but I don't think we go higher for now. One thing that interests me at the moment is the feeling that while the BRICs and others on the periphery may be moving away from the USD as a global reserve currency the main players (Japan, Europe and the U.S.) certainly seem to want to keep the USD propped up for a while yet. I think the industrialised world understands how disruptive a shift would be. Doesn't mean it can't happen, just that it will be resisted all the way.

ib, im looking for a pullback myself on yen pair, to the 10 day sma at least. looking at 100.70/75 as a good point to get involved (just above 38.2 fibo). the market is clearly still willing to give the abenomics a chance flows are starting to look right as far as what the market is looking for and unless sentiment turns decidely, i dont think it pays to fight the trend on this one.

I agree with you red. I'm a bit surprised with the Euro jawboning. The officials really jump in on this as soon as the Euro looks like rallying. They know the themes to use: negative rates and bail in (the 'we need a weak Euro for our exporters' is just not original enough). So I think European officialdom will keep fighting any Euro up move but that's the only thing holding back a reversal IMO. USD/JPY looks like it may have topped out for the moment. All we have out there are USD/JPY bulls waiting to buy on a pullback.
london red 16:46 GMT May 16, 2013

think a bit of a pullback was on the cards to be honest given yesterdays iffy data. even before it came in everyone started to wait for someone else to sell the low and you just got the feeling sooner or later the idea will come up to run the stops on dollar downside. think todays data continued the theme and a few weak hands probably gave in looking for a new low for euro. think we could have seen 29 and a half on euro but for jawboning. now as you say, the whipsaw action will probably see people sit out until tomorrow where your not quite saw to position into the underlying trend or looking for a sharper bout of profit taking, particularly since its a quite day on the data front. on any other day id say follow the trend, but with it being a friday anythings possible.

This whole extremely over-extended move in YEN, Global Stock Indices - all reminds me of what I have read about the Stock market in the Irrational Exuberance times when great global macro managers like George Soros and also Julian Robertson just threw in the towel not being able to make it in the momentum market.
I guess many try to short the market and it just adds fuel but also in such a momentum based market only trend-following systems/strategies yield good return as they would disciplinary keep one in the market (provided the trend-following system is adequately fitting the current market) - but looking at the smooth trend on a daily basis since the crash of 2008, in hindsight it was a great ride to be on and most of people at all stages were guessing, shorting, looking at Roubini for advice when it will crash again and market is just moving making higher highs, higher lows... just that easy.

The other side of resilience is that one never knows the actual timing so that makes trading quite an experience.
Many times it's obvious the trajectory a pair will transcend but the actual moves and the volatility in the meantime are a drag to the performance.
We never know if the resilience is because of building pressure or just of slow market waiting for flow to come to market to move it..

Hello,
May I ask for your opinions on the following matter:
Usually the JPY pairs work in a tight correlation with stocks - case in point USDJPY and Nikkei
So now as the stocks soar the JPY pairs are extremely resilient, does it mean the correlation is somewhat changing?
I might be one of those why look with great interest the stellar rise in the USDJPY and can't stop asking myself how far in uncharted territory it can soar ...

Joe nice little summary there!! So it's all geo-politics after all. To h.ell with fundamentals just watch the chess pieces.
I found it interesting that AUD came under pressure shortly after the Australians agreed to exchange currency directly with the Chinese. The BRICS are already on to this (is that why they're not flavour of the month any more?). The undermining of the USD as world reserve currency continues, despite all our friendly little hedge fund efforts to stop the rot.

Euro tumbles on weak eurozone GDP data : May 16, 2013

Market Review - 15/05/2013 23:00GMT
Euro tumbles on weak eurozone GDP data
The single currency tumbled against the dollar on Wednesday after GDP data from Germany and eurozone came in weaker-than-expected.
On the data front, German GDP in Q1 came in at -0.1% Q/Q n -1.4% y/y, vs the forecast 0.3% Q/Q. Euro zone GDP in Q1 came in at -0.2% Q/Q n -1.0% y/y, worse than the expectation of -0.2% n -0.9% respectively.
Although the single currency retreated to 1.2921 in early Asian morning, price rebounded to session high at 1.2943 ahead of European open. Euro met renewed selling pressure there and fell sharply to 1.2888 after the release of weaker-than-expected Germany GDP data. Despite a brief rebound to 1.2917, price fell again after eurozone GDP came in lower than forecast, eventually dropping to an intra-day low at 1.2843 at New York open.
Later, euro pared intra-day losses and recovered to 1.2890 on dollar's broad-based retreat after data showed producer prices dropped by the largest amount in 3 years, however, price retreated again to 1.2847 at New York midday before rebounding to 1.2888 in U.S. afternoon.
U.S. Empire manufacturing index in May came in at -1.43, worse than the expectation of 4.00; U.S. PPI in April is reported -0.6% m/m n 0.8% y/y, vs the forecast of -0.3% n 0.8% respectively.
Versus the Japanese yen, the greenback traded with a firm undertone in Asia and rose above Tuesday's 102.44 high at European open. Price continued to ratchet higher and hit a fresh 4-1/2 year high at 102.77 in European morning. However, dollar pared intra-day gains and fell briefly but sharply to intra-day low at 101.85 in New York morning on dollar's broad-based weakness. Despite a recovery to 102.61 at New York midday, renewed selling interest capped the pair's upside and pushed price lower in New York afternoon.
Although the British pound traded sideways in Asia and dropped briefly to 1.5192 in early European morning, price rebounded to an intra-day high at 1.5273 in European morning after the Bank of England upgraded its estimate of the U.K. economy and the Bank of England governor Mervyn King said a recovery was now 'in sight'. However, cable pared intra-day gains and fell to session low at 1.5173 at New York open before staging a strong recovery to 1.5268 in New York morning on dollar's weakness.
BoE's King said 'today is the first time I have been able to give a brighter economic outlook since financial crisis; but this is no time to be complacent, must press on to ensure a recovery; U.K. economy still faces challenge of substantial rebalancing; this has not been a typical recession, will not be typical recovery.'
