It is another day of gloom in the stock markets, after what was a relatively steady session in Asia. Oil price slippage was again the catalyst for today’s negative sentiment, with the familiar risk pairings taking the brunt of the hit. USD/JPY losses in Asia stabilised in the mid 120.00s in early London, but extended through these levels to line up a potential test on 120.00. Large vanilla expiries seen here over the next 2 days, adding stop loss momentum if we break below here. Fresh weakness in CNH. AUD was under pressure all day, having a short lived relief rally after the no change RBA call. Support levels ahead of .7000 tested, but support noted here. The Fonterra auction saw the WMP index fall 10.4%, but NZD seemed to take this in its stride. CAD losses were well contained despite the focus on oil again, but looking pressured again. A good day for GBP with overnight cable highs pushing further into the 1.4400s and EUR/GBP dipping below .7550. EU draft proposals for the UK offered an ‘emergency brake’ on benefits to migrant workers, but EU leaders still need to vote on this. Nevertheless, concessions to the UK were well received by GBP markets. EUR gains against the USD seem to be a given when stocks tank, today was no different. EUR/CHF buying also contributing to gains here; the SNB Jordan reiterated an overvalued CHF to confirm suspicions of central bank ‘actions’.
