Concerns over an unprecedented levy of tax on deposits in Cyprus caused the euro to fall by more than 150 pips in the early Asian session. Alhough the financial impact of Cyprus is negligible on World economy, concerns over the Euro crisis reigniting are increasing.
Unable to close below 81.90, the USD Dollar Index (DX) seems to reinitiate its bull trend with 83.40 and 84.20 acting as formidable resistances. Dow Industrials (DJIA) is trading consistently beyond all time high of 14200- 14300 made during October 2007 indicating new rally is under progress; only monthly close below 13700 would force us to rethink. Historic correlation between DX Vs DJIA suggests the long-term trend is still Dollar bearish, until the DX doesn't close above 84.50 on monthly basis, although the short and medium term trends are bullish.
