AUD/USD is a tad lower as investors focus on the Australian employment report with expectations that the unemployment rate will rise, says BNZ strategist Kymberly Martin. "As always, the employment reports are a lot more complex than the unemployment rate, although initially this number grabs attention." Martin adds BNZ's parent bank NAB expects a rise in the unemployment rate to 6%, higher than market consensus for 5.9%. She adds overall this type of outcome "should not be too negative for the AUD." The pair is at 0.9327, from 0.9340 late last session. Martin puts short-term support for the pair at 0.9320 and resistance at 0.9380.

Risk appetite improved slightly on Russian diplomacy and Fed comments. President Putin said Russia pulled back its troops from the Ukrainian border, although NATO later disputed that. Fed Chair Yellen's testimony to Congress revealed nothing new but did reiterate that interest rates would remain on hold for some time after tapering ended.

Thursday is a big news day

China: trade data, especially exports are seen as a proxy for economic growth

Australia: Employment data are probably their most important economic metric

Switzerland: The SNB targets inflation and the Swiss economy is mired in disinflation.

Bank of England: No policy changes are expected. Sometime soon the BOE wil start releasing a policy statement with its decisions?

European Central Bank: the ECB has no stomach for QE or an interest rate cut. Expect more dovish statements and little else.

United States: Initial Jobless. - Volatile series. Data should only be viewed in the context of other recent data.

Yellen Testimony to Senate - She is unlikely to say anything new.

30yr auction - strength of long dated auctions always closely scrutinized.

Yellen Springs No Surprises Dovish Policy to Persist. Bond Yields Remain Low

Slow Day - the DNA of most CBs was geared to resist inflation - the current crop sees deflation as an enemy instead of an ally // so we have Yellen who today expressed the Unemployment Rate as "if I had to pick one" favorite -- so she thinx inflation is "too low" -- inflation is a process not an event and the great fear is always "expectations" - Yellen (like her predecessor) has never had to deal w/ inflation de facto merely in theory // a couple of points - expectations are driven by "cost of living" which doesn't get measured by the Fed's preferred inflation gauge (so it has a tendency to sneak up on the pointy headed theorists) - ISM services (non-manuf) Prices component has been rising for over 4 1/2 yrs - two items critical to "cost of living" (food and energy) are routinely excluded by pointy heads - BUT two that aren't yet excluded are medical and housing both of which should show more pronounced moves in CPI because owners equiv rent will shadow the big rise in rental costs and health care (18% of GDP but only 6.5% of CPI) will begin to have a larger impact on "cost of living" expectations

The current crop of CB types are "wishing" for inflation to protect their financial clients - be careful what you wish for

US inflation is running at 1.5% to 1.9% -- a 2 yr Treasury is yielding less than 1/3 and you get to pay tax on the interest

Go figure what happens when the market wakes to that

Fed Chair Yellen took an accomodative posture as expected Wednesday reiterating that a high degree of Monetary policy accommodation is still warranted. She noted that after the harsh winter that indicators point to a rebound in spending and production. She said that labor market conditions continue to improve, but they are still far from satisfactory and that involuntary part-time work and weak wage growth signal "substantial slack". On balance, her comments were dovish as expected.

Risk On/Off Heat Map

European equities are ending mixed to higher, while U,S. shares are trading narrowly mixed. Most major equity markets in the Far East closed sharply lower after holidays. Yields in the prime fixed income markets are mixed to lower. Comments by Fed Chair Yellen have had little impact on the markets. The yields for peripheral bond markets are higher. The U.S. 10-yr was last 2.58%, -2bp.

The heat map color scheme of interest rates reflect yields. This aligns all the colors in the chart to reflect risk-on (green)
and risk-off (red).

U.S. Cost of Funding Keeps Rising
Reply   
All this good news and all the sensible talk from Putin is only pushing the U.S. cost of funding up. Yields are rising across the curve. But the USD is not seeing any material benefit. The USD and the U.S. economy can't catch a break.

I guess that's what happens when you shoot yourself in the foot. Threaten sanctions, allow the fear of having funds frozen for whatever reason and you undermine your own international reserve status.

HONG KONG � Tensions in the South China Sea intensified Wednesday as Vietnamese naval vessels confronted Chinese ships that were working to place an oil rig off Vietnam�s coast, and Vietnamese officials claimed that their ships had been rammed by the Chinese vessels.

Vietnam said the Chinese ships also fired water cannons at its naval flotilla in the encounter, injuring Vietnamese sailors, although Chinese officials did not confirm the incident. The skirmishing highlighted the hair-trigger tensions in the region as Asian nations try to contain China�s more aggressive posture in pursuing maritime claims in the South China Sea.

I wonder if the risk-off posture of the market will fade fairly soon today? NY equity markets generally do not like to follow the lead of markets overseas.

As for Yellem today. Keep in mind she is not an objective economist, part of her job is to foster confidence in the economy. Thus I expect her to say the economy has been improving but to indicate that the Fed will be doing al it can to promote growth. Also, consider that a weaker USD is supportive of growth so she is unlikely to have anything to say in support of a stronger USD.

Risk On/Off Heat Map
Reply   
Look at all the red. Markets are clearly in a "risk-off" posture at this hour. Early in Europe, yields in prime fixed income markets are mostly lower, but only slightly so. Equities are mostly lower following the weakness late Tuesday in the U.S. Far East markets ended weaker. U.S. S&P futures are up slightly. The peripheral European bond yields are lower. The U.S. 10-yr is 2.58% +2bp.

The heat map color scheme of interest rates reflect yields. This aligns all the colors in the chart to reflect risk-on (green)
and risk-off (red).

New Zealand Dollar Falls After Central Bank Talk of Intervention
Reply   


WELLINGTON, New Zealand--The New Zealand dollar fell Wednesday after the country's central bank said it may intervene to weaken it, but the bank's plan to continue raising interest rates will make engineering a decline in the currency a challenge over the long term.

Reserve Bank of New Zealand Governor Graeme Wheeler said the central bank may need to take action to weaken the currency, among the world's best-performing major currencies this year, to prevent its strength from choking off exports ranging from fruit to wine.

"If the currency remains high in the face of worsening fundamentals, such as a continued weakening in export prices, it would become more opportune for the Reserve Bank to intervene in the currency market to sell New Zealand dollars," he told a conference of dairy farmers.

The New Zealand dollar, known as the kiwi, dropped nearly half a cent against the U.S. dollar following his comments, to US$0.8702.

Keith Poore, head of investment strategy for AMP Capital New Zealand, which has more than 18.0 billion New Zealand dollars (US$15.6 billion) under management in the country, said Mr. Wheeler's comments added to rising risks facing the kiwi in the near term. Those risks include falling prices of milk, New Zealand's biggest export.

"At the current level there is definitely reason for the kiwi to move lower," said Mr. Poore, who has been a seller of the currency for the past month.

Still, the kiwi remains up nearly 4% this year against a basket of currencies that includes the U.S. dollar and British pound, partly due to record-high terms of trade as the New Zealand's agriculture-rich economy feeds Asia's growing appetite for dairy products. New Zealand's central bank has called it unsustainably high at current levels.

The New Zealand dollar has risen 1.0% over the same period against its counterpart in Australia, which was New Zealand's main trading partner until it was recently overtaken by China.

Further fueling the recent rally was the central bank's interest-rate increases in March and April, which were intended to tame inflation and cool a real-estate market at risk of overheating. The benchmark interest rate now stands at 3.0%, much higher than in other developed economies.

The interest-rate differential with neighboring Australia is particularly seen as bullish for the kiwi. On Tuesday, Australia's central bank held its policy rate at a record-low 2.5% for the eighth meeting in a row and signaled it would keep it at that level for some time to stoke an economy struggling with a fading mining boom.

New Zealand's central bank, meanwhile, has said it plans to raise interest rates by around two percentage points in the current tightening cycle, which it expects to last at least two years. Given that plan, any attempts at intervening to weaken the kiwi will have limited success, said ASB Economist Nick Tuffley.

Fergus McDonald, head of bonds and currencies for Tyndall Investment Management New Zealand LTD, which has around NZ$3.5 billion under management in New Zealand, also expects the kiwi to remain firm.

"If the RBNZ sticks to its guns and puts up interest rates and the rest of the world doesn't, it will continue to support the kiwi," he said.

New Zealand policy makers have acted to weaken the currency previously. In late 2012 and early 2013 the central bank sold the currency for the first time in nearly four years. The amount, however, was limited and prompted criticism that the central bank had misled markets over the extent of the intervention in an effort to "talk" the currency lower.

The central bank's latest talk of intervention also may reflect frustration at the currency's continued strength in the face of falling prices of dairy products, which account for around a third of exports. Milk prices fell a further 1.1% in the GlobalDairyTrade Auction overnight on Tuesday, bringing the total decline since mid-February to 23%.

In any case, David Croy, ANZ Bank's head of global markets research for New Zealand, said the central bank was unlikely to intervene quickly because there is no guarantee such a move would weaken the kiwi significantly.

Instead, Mr. Croy interpreted Mr. Wheeler's comments as a warning. They are a "reminder that the economy will start to come under pressure if commodity prices weaken further and the New Zealand dollar doesn't respond," he said.

EUR/USD Trend For Today
Reply   
EUR/USD surged on Tuesday, violating the hurdle of 1.3900 and reaching 1.3950. In my view, the violation of the 1.3900 barrier changes the short-term outlook from neutral to positive and I would expect buyers to challenge the 13th of March highs at 1.3965 (R1). A decisive break above that resistance may see the 1.4000 (R2) critical bar. Nonetheless, considering that the RSI exited its overbought zone I would expect some further consolidation or a pullback before the development of further advance.
� Support: 1.3900-1.3815-1.3790
� Resistance: 1.3965-1.4000-1.4100

Russia demands $3.8bn security deposit from Visa and Mastercard

Kremlin imposes unprecedented requirements on global payment systems operating in Russia in response to US sanctions

The law, signed by Vladimir Putin, was spurred by Visa and Mastercard�s decision on 21 March to stop servicing payments for clients of Rossiya Bank. Photograph: Ria Novosti/Reuters


International credit card companies face a "severe impact" on their operations in Russia following a strict new law Moscow has adopted in response to Visa and Mastercard freezing service to banks under US sanctions.

Visa described the regulations as "unprecedented" and Mastercard said it could experience difficulties, the Russian magazine Snob reported, after Vladimir Putin signed a law on Monday to create a rival national payment system.

The law stipulates the creation of a homegrown system to facilitate cashless transactions by 1 July, but also imposes stiff new requirements on international payment systems operating in Russia

DAILY OUTLOOK ON USD/JPY - 101.75

Update Time: 07 May 2014 00:02 GMT

Yesterday's sell off below Monday's low at 101.86 to 101. 50 suggests erratic decline from Apr's high at 104.13 has possibly resumed n a re-test of Apr's low at 101.32 is envisaged.

Below would extend weakness to 101.00 but key daily sup at 100.76 (Feb) would hold.

Sell on pull back with stop as indicated and only above yesterday's 102.19 high would risk gain to 102.56.

Household debt the big threat to Australian economy
Reply   
Household debt dwarfs government debt

One economist who is prepared to say whether that is sustainable is Steve Keen.

He says rising private debt is a much bigger problem than yearly government deficits and overall government debt.

"Government debt is trivial in this country. It's of the order of 12 to 14 per cent of GDP in net terms, whereas household debt is of the order of 100 per cent of GDP," he observed.

"Now that interest rates have been dropped as low as they have by the RBA (Reserve Bank of Australia), household speculators are diving into the mortgage market once more and driving up household debt levels

Risky home lending on the rise Consumer group Choice says the slow growth in total lending seems to be driving financial institutions into riskier lending practices. In particular, Choice is warning consumers to be wary of three particular practices it says are on the rise: low-deposit loans, family guarantees and 40-year loans.

Australian household debt hits 25-year high
Reply   


The debate around the proposed deficit levy has so far focussed on economic impact of the Government's debt burden. But economists are warning there is a bigger threat to the country's future: the unrelenting growth in household debt. Figures realsed today show Australians owe $1.8 trillion to banks and other lenders. Adjusted for inflation, that is the highest level in 25 years and the equivalent of almost $79,000 per person.

Australian March Retail Sales Miss Consensus
Reply   
SYDNEY--Australian retail sales were weaker than expected in March, dealing a blow to the central bank's hopes that nonmining sectors would respond to record-low interest rates and lead an economic revival.

Retail sales rose 0.1% in March from a month earlier, the Australian Bureau of Statistics said Wednesday, compared with a 0.4% rise expected by economists. Sales for February were upwardly revised to 0.3% from 0.2% when the figures were first released.

Retail sales for the March quarter rose 1.2% versus an expected 1.5% rise.

Australia's central bank has held interest rates at 2.5%--lower even than in the depths of the global financial crisis--since last August, seeking to stoke domestic sectors of the economy such as retail sales as a mining boom that has powered growth for over a decade slows.

But so far the recovery has been patchy, led by a surge in house prices, while businesses and consumers remain reluctant to spend.

ANZ Recommends Buying Kiwi Put Option -
Reply   
The outlook for the New Zealand domestic economy remains extremely solid and shows no signs of slowing, ANZ says. But growth expectations look mature and it is hard to envisage further domestic improvements, the bank says. ANZ also notes markets have remained remarkably complacent about global risks--such as the Chinese economic rebalancing, policy event risks such as the ECB embarking on quantitative easing and European political elections, and global flash points such as events in the Ukraine. ANZ thinks it is prudent to buy protection when others see no need for it. The bank recommends buying a 0.87 strike NZD/USD 3-month at-the-money put option. dj
