As long as progress is being made, there is no need for the Bank of Japan to expand its quantitative easing programme, under which it buys government debt and risk assets, Deputy Managing Director Naoyuki Shinohara said at a seminar in Tokyo.
BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda has expressed growing confidence that consumer prices will reach the goal in two years, although comments from the IMF highlight the considerable scepticism among private sector economists.
"As long as steady progress is being made toward the 2 percent inflation target, we do not see a need for additional monetary accommodation," Shinohara said, according to the text of a speech. - reuters Jan 23, 2014

#Your Best Trade for Today
#TradeIdeas I heard Bob Pisani on CNBC earlier today explain the close correlation between #USDJPY and equities as being driven by hedge funds. Obviously for big players to buy stocks they need to borrow money from somewhere to finance the trade. He said that they finance the purchases in JPY and that when the JPY strengthens they sell their stocks and pay back the JPY.
I think his view is pretty simplistic because there is not much of a differential, if any between the cost of USD and JPY funds. Furthermore they could get out instantaneously of the JPY borrowing by just hedging the JPY loan, I think he might consider rethinking his analysis.
I think his analysis is mired in the way markets worked before.
I don't doubt that the markets are still operating on a notion of how HF MIGHT be working even though in actuality it has been outmoded for several years. You lock these correlations into an algo and they don't go away!
Bottom-line equities can influence USDJPY and vice-versa. So if equities start to move keep an eye on the JPY when equities start to move no matter the reason.

Congress has until late February to lift the $16.7T debt ceiling and avert a U.S. default, Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew said yesterday. The cap is suspended until February 7, after which the Treasury can juggle the money about for a bit before running out of cash. The question is how much the GOP will try to use the debt limit to extract concessions from the Democrats, such as with a decision on the Keystone XL pipeline.

st, hard to suggest a range from here after such a big move as it depends on whether there are more stops to run but as I noted in my daily video, key level on top is 1.3700 = last week's high and 50% retracement level
So far top has been at the 200 period 4 hour mva (as noted on GVIForex in real-time)
On downside, support is 1.3625-50 with 1.3650 setting the tone for this pair.
Maybe a range of 1.3630-70 but noting risk of stops closer to up than downside?

Five years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. forced governments to bail out financial firms and prompted a global recession, bankers are still grappling to convince the public they can avoid a similar crisis. In a vote at the end of the debate, almost 40 percent of the 100-strong Davos audience said markets haven�t been made safer. Banks and financial services are the least trusted of all industries, according to a survey by public relations firm Edelman released on Jan. 20.
Last year, JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon defended banks from blame for the crisis, and argued regulators were �trying to do too much, too fast.�
This year, returning to Davos as head of a bank that agreed to pay more than $23 billion in 12 months in fines and settlements, Dimon has no public appearances. Instead, he listened to yesterday�s debate standing at the back of the room.

Congress decision not to extend this beenfit means there are 2 million fewer people on benefits than a year ago. The 1.4 million drop also means the number of people NOT in the labor force is about to rise by the same amount, which as we explained before, means the US unemployment rate is about to drop by up to 0.8%, which means the January unemployment rate could be as low as 5.9%.

#USDCAD One of the strongest trends on the board is the higher USDCAD pattern. Late Wednesday BOC Governor Poloz said the "door is slightly more open to a rate cut". From the head of a central bank, this is tantamount to announcing a rate cut. It sounds to use like the BOC may be trying to engineer a weaker currency. The markets are certainly taking their recent pronouncements tat way.
The BOC is one of the few central banks that controls forex policy and forex policy tends to be intertwined with interest rate policy. One alternative to lower interest rates when they are already exceptionally low is to drive your currency lower.

#TradeIdeas good point re stop hunts in #EURUSD. Stops are the strongest force in the markets because they have to be executed no matter what.
Note today we have already run through the #EURUSD 20-day average of 1.3632. One trigger today has been the EZ flash PMI releases. I have become a little bit wary of their predictive abilities. I view them now something to confirm what we already know. I also think in some cases that they tend to have a positive rather than neutral bias.

Asian stocks moved lower on Thursday following signs of weakness in China's manufacturing sector.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index and the Shanghai Composite were down 1.2% and 0.3% respectively after the preliminary HSBC China Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index for January came out at 49.6, compared with a final reading of 50.5 in December. A score above 50 indicates an increase in manufacturing, while a score below points toward contraction.
The impact was felt as far away as Australia--a country with strong trade ties with China--where the local currency pushed lower after the weak PMI reading. The Australian dollar fell to US$0.8802, compared with A$0.8852 late Wednesday in New York.
There have already been signs of an economic slowdown in China, the latest being from earlier this week when China reported that gross domestic product

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK EUR/USD - 1.3535
23 Jan 2014 00:41 GMT
Despite yesterday's rebound to 1.3584, subsequent retreat suggests the recovery from Monday's 7-week low at 1.3508 has ended there and consolidation with downside bias remains for a re-test of aforesaid trough, break would extend corrective decline from December's 2-year peak at 1.3894 towards support at 1.3455/60, however, near term loss of momentum would prevent steep fall below there and yield a correction later next week.
On the upside, only above 1.3584 would indicate a temporary low has been made there and bring stronger retracement of said fall to 1.3603.

Dollar trades mixed versus other major currencies on Wednesday
The greenback traded mixed against other major rivals on Wednesday as market participants were waiting for more signals whether that Federal Reserve's will reduce its quantitative easing program at the conclusion of its upcoming policy meeting on January 29 to USD65 billion from the current USD75 billion.
During the day, the single currency rose to 1.3580 in Asia and then dropped to 1.3535 in European morning due mainly to active cross-selling of euro versus sterling, however, cable's intra-day rally lent support to the single currency and price later rose further to 1.3584 in New York morning before easing.
Versus the Japanese yen, although dollar dropped briefly to 103.97 after the Bank of Japan kept monetary policy unchanged following its monthly policy meeting on Wednesday and maintained its assessment that Japan's economy 'has continued to recover moderately', renewed demand for greenback lifted price sharply higher to 104.57 ahead of European morning and later rose to 104.59 near New York close.
Bank of Japan report stated that 'keeps monetary policy steady by unanimous vote, pledges to increase monetary base as annual pace of 60-70 trillion yen; Japan core CPI expected 1.3% in FY2014/15 vs. 1.3% projected in Oct, excluding effect of sales tax hike in April 2014; Japan core CPI expected 1.9% in FY2015/16 vs. 1.9% projected in Oct, excluding effect of sales tax hike; BOJ board turns by 8-1 vote a proposal by Kiuchi to make 2 % inflation target a medium- to long-term goal; Japan GDP expected +1.4% in FY2014/15 vs. 1.5% projected in Oct; Japan GDP expected +1.5% FY2015.16 vs. 1.5% projected in Oct; Japan's economy recovering moderately with front-loaded increase in demand prior to sale tax hike being observed; Japan annual CPI growth likely to move around 1 to 1.5% for time being.'
The British pound rallied against the dollar on Wednesday after data showed that the rate of unemployment in the U.K. fell to 7.1% in November. During the day, although cable retreated after marginal gain above Tuesday's high of 1.6387 to 1.6492 in Asia, price found support at 1.6451 in European morning and surged sharply to 1.6553 due to a 'surprise' sharp drop in U.K. unemployment and BoE MPC vote outcome . Later, cable rose further to 1.6588 in New York morning before easing.
BoE showed MPC voted 9-0 to keep QE bond purchase total at 375 billion pounds and voted 9-0 to keep rates at 0.5%. BoE said in the statement that 'It was now likely that the unemployment rate would reach the 7% threshold materially earlier than previously expected," the minutes said, but officials "saw no immediate need to raise Bank Rate," the bank�s benchmark interest rate, "even if the 7% unemployment threshold were to be reached in the near future.'
On the data front, the ONS said the number of people claiming jobless benefits in U.K. fell by 24,000 in December, compared to expectations for a decline of 32,000.
In the other news, Bank of Canada left interest rates on hold at 1.00% and said 'downside risks to inflation have grown in importance; direction of next rate move to depend on data; sees inflation path lower than previous expected but still returning to the 2% target in about two years; stronger U.S. demand, recent C$ fall should help exports, business investment; no sign yet of rebalancing to export - and investment-led growth; fundamental drivers of growth and future inflation appear to be strengthening; output cap has shrunk by 1/4 point from Oct report to between 3/4% and 1-3/4%; sees soft landing in housing market; household debt/disposable income ratio to stabilize; risks from elevated household imbalances haven't materially changed; sees 2.5% growth in 2014 (prev. 2.3%) and in 2015 (prev. 2.6%); Q4 2013 and Q1 2014 2.5% (prev. 2.3%); core and total inflation to remain around 1% in H1 2014; total CPI at 0.9% Q4 2013 and Q1 2014 (prev. 1.3% and 1.2%); despite C$ depreciation, C$ remains strong and will continue to pose competitiveness challenges for non-commodity exports; C$ depreciation reflects improved U.S. growth prospects and reduced safe-haven effects; C$ depreciation will exert upward pressure on inflation.'
Data to be released on Thursday:
New Zealand business manufacturing PMI, ANZ consumer confidence, China HSBC manufacturing PMI, Japan BOJ monthly economic report, France business climate, France manufacturing PMI, service PMI, EU current account, manufacturing PMI, service PMI, consumer confidence, U.K. CBI distributive trades, Canada retail sales, U.S. Chicago Fed index, jobless claims, markit PMI, house price, US existing home sales and leading index.
