over the weekend, I read a take on the RevRepo that I hadn't considered. I have been saying that the echange for un-leverageable CASH for Leverageable Collateral -- Treasuries, was a gift to the Privy Entities.
This added take - the CASH that the FRBNY takes in is then used to fund its MarkIT operations, the Exchange Stabalization Unit, aka the PPT, and other ventures to get Prices where THEY SHUD BE.
So it really is a version of QE. What is different is which entity is employing the CASH in the MarkIt.

Iran is not in a position to go to war with Saudi(and other Gulf countries).
An increase in oil prices if happens, will not compensate for war costs.
How much more, if oil tankers will not be able to exit to open seas.

Negative correlation. When big investors (hedge funds etc) buy stocks, they borrow EUR at negative interest rates and convert the EUR into USD to pay for the stocks. That drives EURUSD lower. Just the opposite when stocks are falling.
It doesn't always work, but it can be fairly reliable. Also the moves up and down are not always symmetrical in magnitude.

With inflation target of 2% for the EURO, S&P becomes irrelevant.

A drop in S&P, may not help the EURO either.

USD/JPY: the canary in the coal mine
Indeed. What is interesting is the USD/JPY's role as an indicator for the USD in general and with the USD/JPY falling, global stock markets will remain under pressure... 2016 is going to be an interesting year. If the FED chooses to continue to HIKE rates in the face of all that then that is interesting to me. 2 year yields in the STATES are already up above 1 percent. 3 year yields are at 1.3 percent. There is a massive amount of U.S. Government debt which needs to be refunded every year. Auctions are estimated at 4 trillion per year, 4 trillion going to auction as yields rise. That has to be a headache.
Japan is a major source of finance for the U.S., as is China. Together they are the two single biggest holders of U.S. Government debt. There has been not been a significant inflow of new money into the U.S. Government bond market from abroad for years now. And that, given the role of foreigners in financing the U.S., is something which needs to be watched. And then we have GEOPOLITICS... actually I'm beginning to think this whole market is GEOPOLITICS. Economics and interest rates come a very poor second and third. So good luck everyone in 2016. It should be a wild ride.

USD/JPY: the canary in the coal mine
Paris ib 13:29:30 GMT - 06/19/2015
USD/JPY remains, to my mind, the pair to watch. The Greece drama is a drama but of little import. We could do headline ping pong on this one till December and, quite frankly, my nerves aren't up to it. At some point the whole thing goes into the bottom drawer to be quietly forgotten. USD/JPY has a more interesting outlook. Failure to hold a break of 125.00 sets us up for a test of 120.00 to see what's out there.
And the saga continues.

Will Eurusd revisit 1.09?
Shawn,
Eurjpy is struggling to hold at the support level. If fail to hold, might send Eurusd further towards 1.06.
However, I am waiting to see if the bull which push Eurusd out of 1.045 region for nearly 500 pips within 4-6 hours can return to lift Eurusd towards 1.10.
My take is Eurusd should try 1.11 minimal before any big downtrend resumes.

Update Time: 05 Jan 2016 03:18 GMT
EUR/USD - 1.0832
Yesterday's break of daily sup at 1.0802 to a 4-week low of 1.0781 in New York session confirms early decline from December's 1.1060 peak has once again resumed and as long as 1.0860/65 holds, intra-day bearishness remains for aforesaid fall to pressure price to 1.0750/60.
However, near term loss of momentum is expected to keep euro above 1.0728 today and bring subsequent correction.
On the upside, a daily close above 1.0865 would be the 1st signal temporary low is in place, then further gain towards 1.0946 would follow later.

AceTrader Jan 5: Intra-day Market Moving News and Views (USD/JPY)
Reply
05 Jan 2016 02:30GMT
USD/JPY - ..... Dlr regains composure in Asian morning as intra-day move back into positive territory in Chinese stocks has led to broad-based recovery in Asian stocks, Dollar rebounded from 119.10 to 119.63 as modest gain in the Nikkei has boosted risk sentiment, leading to yen selling vs its peer currencies.
Looks like the pair would gain respite after yesterday's selloff from 120.47 to an 11-week low of 118.70 (Europe). Having said that, dlr's daily close below the 'psychological' 120.00 level bodes ill for the pair and price should head lower towards daily obj. 118.06 later this once current consolidation is over.
Offers are noted at 120.65/75 n more above with stops reported above 120.00, initial bids are touted at 119.20-10 with stops below 119.00, more stops are reported below 118.60.
