Will The FOMC Disappoint On Wednesday?
(Reuters) - Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, casting doubt on the nation's economic health, said on Tuesday the U.S. economy is in a bubble he fears will burst and he does not want to deal with a financial collapse if he is elected to the White House.

Will The FOMC Disappoint On Wednesday?
China, oil and the Fed have been the daily media villains in this STOX correction
Last Night's action in China saw the stox drop near 6.5% but Europe and US stox shrugged it off - one down
Tomorrow morning any move in oil should be shrugged off by stox - other than direct hits to energy companies and some banks the oil price is only relevant to stox because of Fed policy -- the US monetary policy has been tied to the anchor of falling oil price - so two down
The Fed is the last goblin hiding under the bed -- if the FOMC statement is less than "we will hike in March" it will be "dovish" (data dependent but focus on 2% inflation) -- no change BUT three down
So USD weakness on dovish Fed, falling oil but STOX higher because there will be no more excuses -- ahh, but the bond market might move closer to the exits

does it matter what the FED say?
in name of cheap goods (aka low inflation) for the western way of life, outsourcing and globalisation (aka low cost labor = slavery) were the running agenda and policy. now talking about higher rates as key for a better economy.
to get a fortune it takes a maximal exposure to the masses, to keep and gain the fortune it needs less as possible exposure to the masses. the FED is an implementation tool for those decided which books would be the study, the fun is that USD is just a pawn on the board, exactly as the FED.

EUR, is likely suppressed by CB's, as a bull run in a funding currency, will not make any good for the S.Mkts.
Gold is manipulated upward, in order to attract some of the money exiting the S.Mkts, but any smart money if left, is going into quality real estates, just not to come back for many years.
Signs are clear, that markets are now pushing up against runaway exiting money to prevent more of it.

What makes it hard is when trading is held hostage to the random moves in crude and equities. You can have the right idea but it turns out wrong when the correlation algos run market and why I like the range idea.

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK
Update Time: 26 Jan 2016 05:32 GMT
EUR/USD - 1.0852
As euro has rebounded on Monday on safe-haven buying in tandem with yen due to renewed weakness in the Dow and crude oil price, suggesting 'gyrations' inside near term established range of 1.0921-1.0776 would continue. Intra-day broad-based decline in Asian stocks suggests upside bias remains for further gain.
However, break of res area at 1.0901-21 is needed to retain bullish prospect of subsequent headway towards 1.0960/70.
On the downside, below 1.0806/09 would shift risk to the downside for weakness towards 1.0799 but only break of last Thursday's post-ECB meeting low at 1.0776 would pressure price to 1.0730/40.

Every recession since WWII has got progressively worse. Part of the reason has been actions of governments and central banks endeavouring to ameliorate the effects of each one of these recessions. This has effectively compounded the effects of the next one.

Reply
26 Jan 2016 02:33GMT
USD/JPY - ...... Dollar falls in Asian trading on Tuesday as market is back to 'risk-off' mode due to intra-day broad-based weakness in Asian stocks following overnight decline in the Dow caused by a sharp retreat in crude oil price (benchmark Brent crude came off over 8% from yesterday's $ 32.70 high to 30.00 in early Asian trading), traders are buying the yen and euro and to a lesser extent, the Swiss franc as sage-haven currencies.
Looks like price would remain under pressure as the Nikkie is currently down by 376 points and selling the pair on recovery is recommended.
Offers have been lowered to 118.30/35 and more above with stops reported above last week's 118.88 high.
Initial bids are noted at 118.00-117.90 with stops below there, more stops are touted below 117.50.
Pay attention to a slew of U.S. economic data coming out later in the day including Caseshiller home price indices, Markit services PMI and consumer confidence.
