6. What are your personal thoughts on how the financial crisis is affecting the Forex market?
The forex reaction started after the July 2007 S&P downgrades and was overall dollar negative as the U.S. started a contraction phase of the business cycle ahead of other regions that were still showing growth. That changed on March 17, 2008 with the rescue of Bear Sterns and forced the dollar into a consolidation pattern. The subsequent effects have pressured overseas holders of U.S. debt to protect the 71.50 area of the U.S. Dollar Index, in a blatant signal that central banks and sovereign wealth funds have long term fair value on the USD at that level. The forward cost of the credit crisis will be seen in two places: Firstly, the dollar’s ability to now hold 80.00 on the Dollar Index as support as global regions move ahead in their own business cycles, leaving a U.S. economy weighed down by debt, in their tracks. Secondly, it will be seen in the equity market’s reaction to the flood of liquidity from central banks that will influence futures contracts and therefore dominate the direction of JPY trade.
