JP - thank you Harry

"Turkey's deputy prime minister Ali Babacan told the forum that despite the lira crashing through the key level of 2.3 to the dollar, this was not due to investors taking fright and pulling out of the country.
Dismissing the recent volatility as "temporary" and "repricing", he told a packed audience at Davos that "people who are actually investing in Turkey are keeping their money in Turkey." "

$yen
94.50 / 95.83 / 99.80 / 101.03 / 101.58 /// 102.50 / 103.05 / 103.65 / 104.11
this is a market where many of the longer term indicators cross over in the next 12-36 hours while the shorter term ones crossed late Thursday last week.
GbpYen
164.70 / 167.25 / 168.47 // 169.72 / 170.76 / 171.36
same comment as above.
overall for immediate bullish $yen the 100.80 / 101.40 levels which rotate around 101.03 are critical to the uptrend... otherwise we risk a deeper pullback to 96/99.
Nikkei
12814 / 13736 / 14489 / 14828 // 15137 / 15281 / 15533 / 15768 / 15661
this really is the same pattern as $yen to be honest. Its broken some really strong support actually and once you get through say 14489 -- its 700 points to next major level.
again 100.80 // 101.40 is critical to the Nikkei and $yen

HIGH IMPACT ITEMS: DE- IFO Survey, US- New Homes Sales
The past few days have seen a "risk off" trade led by equities. Concern was triggered by a poor (sub-50) reading in the HSBC flash PMI for January. The data reinforced worries about the credit-worthiness of their banking system. Some have been hoping that China could be one of the engines of world growth. Also of concern has been the economic/political uncertainties in Argentina and Turkey. Interestingly the EUR and gold have been the safe-haven plays. Recently, the USD has been losing its safe-haven status.

HSBC imposes restrictions on large cash withdrawals
Mr. Cotton's (and others) display of naivete is beyond pathetic.. (maybe blame the high school system ?) ..."You shouldn't have to explain to your bank why you want that money. It's not theirs, it's yours."
-
When one makes a deposit at a bank, the bank registers the deposit as a LIABILITY on its books. Should the bank go tits up, a depositor is nothing more than one amongst a (possibly) million other creditors in line ... there is NO SUCH THING as MY MONEY once one hands it over in a deposit to a bank.
Elementary civic education 101 ... lacking. Never too young to start.... I guess
