How will debt management serve as an alternative to bankruptcy?

2010-08-27T07:47:00.000-07:00

Debt management or DMP is a debt relief option that will help you to get out of debt and prevent you from filing bankruptcy. It has helped many debtors by organizing their debts and making them affordable. A DMP is offered by a credit counseling firm or a debt management company against an upfront fee. If you find it difficult to pay fees for availing their services, you can search for a firm that has a non-profit status and will offer their services for nominal fees.

Enrolling in any debt relief program essentially means that you are trying to regain financial stability. So, it is important that you adhere to the debt help option and take it to completion in a successful manner. By doing so, not only will you be able to tackle debts but you will be able to ward off bankruptcy too. Once you are able to pay off your debts, your financial obligations decrease and you regain financial freedom in due course.

Since the firm offering debt management talks to your creditors for reduced interest rate and hence lower monthly payments, you will be able to make your debt payments affordable. A repayment plan will help you to keep track of the payments you are making. You pay the debt management firm each month. The creditors receive payment from the firm on your behalf.

Once your debts become manageable, your chances of filing bankruptcy greatly decrease. This is how you can ward off bankruptcy and solve your debt problems by enrolling for this debt relief option.

Filing bankruptcy has adverse effects and one of the major drawbacks is that your credit score is greatly hurt. Having bad credit can work against you in several ways. A lender may not agree to work with you, an insurance provider may refuse to sell insurance policy, a homeowner may refuse to rent out his premises to you etc. So, it is best to stay away from bankruptcy which will affect you not just financially but it will have a social as well as moral impact on you too.

The European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) Euro Currency Unit

2009-10-10T03:03:00.000-07:00

On 1 January 1999, eleven countries of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) decided to give up its own currency and adopt the Euro (EUR) currency: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy , Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Vatican City also participated in this transition. Greece followed suit on 1 January 2001 Slovenia on 1 January 2007 Cyprus and Malta on 1 January 2008 and Slovakia on 1 January 2009.
It should be noted that any place that previously used one or more of the coins listed below has now also adopted the euro. This applies to the Principality of Andorra, the Principality of Monaco and the Republic of San Marino. This of course applies automatically to all territories, departments, possessions, or group of euro-zone countries, such as the Azores, Balearic Islands, Canary Islands, Europa Island, French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Juan de Nova, Madeira, Martinique, Mayotte, Reunion, Saint-Martin, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, to name a few.

Banknotes and coins began circulating in the countries before 1 January 2002. At that time, all operations in those countries are valued in euros, and the "old" notes and coins of these countries were removed from circulation. The precise dates that each "old" stopped being the legal currency indicated in the table below.

For convenience, and because their values are now irrevocably fixed against the euro as indicated above, the XE.com Universal Currency Converter will continue to support these units, even after its withdrawal from circulation. Moreover, most of the euro coins will start being physically convertible into special places for a period of several years. For details, see the official website of the euro as described in the section corresponding links.

A note on spelling and capitalization: the official spelling of the euro currency in the English language is "euro" with a lowercase "e". However, the industry practice of writing overwhelmingly dominant "Euro", with a capital "E". As the names of other currencies are capitalized in general use, it helps to differentiate the name "euro" currency EUR sense from the more general adjective "euro", which means nothing remotely to do with Europe. This is particularly prevalent in the marketing and advertising, where it is common to read sentences like: "Try new hair gel Goop ™ with genuine euro style and celebrate!" However, this is very subtle linguistic nuance, even for native speakers of English. It is also important to note that there are many different official languages of the name or euro unit, which also may or may not coincide with general usage.

History of Forex Trading Briefly!

2009-10-01T04:58:00.001-07:00

Initially, the value of goods was expressed in terms of other goods, ie an economy based on barter between individual market. The obvious limitations of such a system encouraged establishing more generally accepted means of exchange at a fairly early stage of history, to establish a common benchmark of value. In different economies, from teeth to feathers to pretty stones has served this purpose, but soon metals, notably gold and silver, have been established as a means of payment accepted and reliable storage of value . Originally, coins were simply minted from the preferred metal, but stable political regimes in the introduction of a paper form of government notes (I owe you) gained acceptance during the Middle Ages. Notes, often introduced more successfully through force of persuasion are the foundation of modern currencies.Before World War, most central banks supported their currencies with convertibility to gold. Although paper money could always be traded for gold, in reality this does not happen often, promoting the sometimes disastrous notion that was not necessarily a need for full coverage of central reserves of government.At time, the balloon supply of paper money without gold cover led to devastating inflation and resulting political instability. To protect local national interests, foreign exchange controls increasingly introduced to prevent market forces from punishing monetary irresponsibility.In the latter stages of World War II, the Bretton Woods agreement was reached on the initiative of the U.S.. UU. in July 1944. The Bretton Woods Conference rejected John Maynard Keynes suggestion for a new global reserve currency in favor of a system built on the U.S. dollar. Other international institutions like the IMF, the World Bank and GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) were created in the same period as the emerging victors of WW2 searched for a way to avoid destabilizing monetary crises leading to war . The Bretton Woods agreement resulted in a system of fixed exchange rates that partly restore the gold standard, fixing the U.S. dollar in USD35/oz and fixing the other major currencies against the dollar - and was destined to be permanent.The Bretton Woods system came under increasing pressure as national economies moved in different directions during the sixties. A number of realignments kept the system alive for a long time but eventually Bretton Woods collapsed in the seventies after President Nixon suspended gold convertibility in August 1971. The dollar was no longer adequate as sole international currency at a time which was under strong pressure from U.S. budget deficits.The rising and trade following decades have seen the currency market become the world's largest market by far. Restrictions on capital flows have been eliminated in most countries, leaving the market forces free to adjust the exchange rates according to their perceived values.But the idea of fixed exchange rates has by no means dead . The EEC (European Economic Community) introduced a new system of fixed exchange rates in 1979, the European Monetary System. This attempt to fix exchange rates met with near extinction in 1992-93, when economic pressures forced devaluations accumulated a number of weak European currencies. However, the quest for currency stability has continued in Europe with the new attempt to solve not only the currencies but actually replace many of them with the euro in 2001.The lack of sustainability in exchange rates fixed assumed new prominence to events in Southeast Asia in the latter part of 1997, after which the currency was devalued the currency against the U.S. dollar, leaving other fixed exchange rates, particularly in South America , looking very vulnerable.But while commercial companies have had to face an environment much more volatile currency in recent years, investors and financial institutions have found a new park. The size of the foreign exchange markets and market dwarfs any investment by a large factor. It is estimated that more than USD 3,000 billion is traded every day, far more than the world stock and bond markets combined.

At the close of local trading, the dollar was buying $ US0.8433, to the way yesterday's close of $ US0.8357.

Expectations of increased local taxes have been the yield curve in Australia undergo a bear flattening. The dissemination of government bonds to 10 years in cash during its three counterparts of the year fell to 79 basis points on Tuesday, the lowest since December.

Some economists said that investors were too aggressive in pricing in rate hikes for Christmas, as the prospects for the global economy remains uncertain.

In addition, a rise in banking shares after the earnings results of HSBC and Barclays PLC, the previous day also provides an upward thrust to the pound, which is often closely correlated with movements in bank stocks, given significant impact from the banking sector in the rest of the UK economy.

The pound was supported against the euro EURGBP = R, which fell 0.2 percent to 84.97 pence and stayed near a one-month low around 84.59 pence hit on Monday. Against a basket of currencies, the pound sterling = GBP was in 84.6, a shadow of 2009 high of 84.7 reached in June.

Markets are awaiting the results of the Bank of England monetary policy meeting on Thursday. With interest rates expected to remain constant, the focus is on the future of quantitative easing. [BOE / INT]

If the Fed will pause or expand 125 billion pounds of asset purchase program still seems to be a close call. However, some analysts expect a positive outcome in pounds sterling, at least in the short term.

U.S. Dollar Breaks Its December Lows

2009-09-29T03:55:00.000-07:00

Steady decline of the dollar continued to break the long-awaited December lows (see chart below). While I expected the dollar to reach this point, I thought of a strong relief rally would be before coming here. "The dollar is destiny" seemed sealed after Canadian authorities said the resigned acceptance of the strength of their currency against the U.S. dollar. As the dollar continues to roll back the achievements of its former status as safe haven, I still left wondering at what point will America's trading partners are beginning to express concerns about the weak dollar will hurt their own exports. Americans are already saving a lot more, and the strongest propensity to save as imports continue to rise in value (this relation, of course, was very broken in our credit bubble rapidly expanding debt became a convenient way to finance the net increase in consumption of imports). Moreover, economic recovery seems to be all about China, and any company fortunate enough to be doing business there, so it is possible that the finance ministers of China and Russia was not going to worry as much as they could have done .

From a technical standpoint, a great relief to U.S. rally in U.S. dollars next week or so it still seems likely given the multiple synchronous peak in a month that made many currencies against the dollar (eg, the euro, pound, Australian dollar and Canadian dollar). These movements have created probably busy short U.S. dollars.

Finally, I had expected that the breakdown of the December minimum is delivered more than $ 1000/ounce gold and silver in 52-week highs. However, metals are still below the highs of the year, even as other commodities and materials such as copper and steel are rising ever higher (despite growing questions about whether China's livestock commodities can or wants to continue for long). I suspect that the loss component of Fear of gold and silver trade is the suppression of prices a little, but the dollar continues to weaken, these two metals should shine even brighter.

EUR/USD: The Euro could continue to 1.4600

2009-09-29T03:54:00.001-07:00

Euro Rally levels around 1.4100 reached 1.4445 high in 2009 so far, and the euro is moving in a range around 1.4000 at the opening of the European session, while Nicole Elliott , technical analyst at Mizuho Corporate Bank believes that the common currency can be seen at 1.4600 and beyond.

The euro should continue weak dollar, "Contrary to what is expected to be generalized U.S. dollar weakness of the euro should follow the leaders, now the Swedish krona and the Brazilian real. Our objectives are measured 1, 4600 and finally the psychological 1.5000.

In terms of strategy, advice to go long at levels less than 1.4400 "Attempt longs at 1.4385, adding to 1.4310; stop well below 1.4200. 1.4430 short-term objective, then 1, 1.4635 after 4545 and that ".

SOUTH KOREA EXPECTS FOREX RESERVES TO HIT RECORD HIGH

2009-09-29T03:09:00.001-07:00

Foreign exchange reserves of South Korea is expected to hit a record U.S. 270 billion U.S. dollars this year, boosted by gains in local currency and expanding current account surplus, the Finance Ministry said Sunday.

The Ministry of Strategy and Finance predicted Korea will continue to increase its reserves in the second half, pushing their total value beyond the current record of $ 264 million, reached in March last year.

Reserves "in South Korea FX could exceed the previous record that the country is expected to continue to record huge current account surplus, and the stabilization of local currency is also expected to add the value of the reserves," said an official of the ministry said.

Foreign exchange holdings rose for a fourth month to 231.7 billion U.S. dollars in June, the highest since September.

It sank to the lowest level in nearly four years in November, the government provided funds in foreign currency to local banks that were struggling to pay their debts due to the sharp depreciation of the Korean won and a global credit crisis.

The reserves began to gain in March, when the country recorded a current account surplus.

The surplus achieved in the second highest in U.S. 5.43 billion U.S. dollars in June, after rising for the fifth consecutive month in the revival of exports.

The won has made a remarkable recovery in that time, rising almost 28 percent against the U.S. dollar since reaching a maximum 11-year low in early March.

This has helped to lift stocks by bringing the value of assets denominated in foreign currency.

The reserves will also receive a boost to the government's plan to recover funds in foreign currency extended to the banking system and the emission of around 3 billion U.S. dollars in foreign exchange stabilization bonds, scheduled for the second half of the year , the ministry said.

Reservations are adding to the optimism, the data from the International Monetary Fund showed South Korea grew at a rate of a second faster among member countries.

The farms of the country increased 14.3 billion U.S. dollars in late May from a month earlier, the fastest pace after Russia.

Data exclude China due to lack of available statistics.

"Government officials generally favor more reserves from the global financial crisis in September despite earlier were concerned about excessive holdings," said a Finance Ministry official.

2009-09-29T03:07:00.000-07:00

Mumabi: The Indian rupee rose on Wednesday, boosted by weakness in U.S. unit face greater overseas, but pared some of their increase in mid-morning trade on local initiatives became negative after rising nearly 1% initially.

At 10:55 pm, the partially convertible rupee was at Rs47.69/70 the dollar, compared to a peak in early Rs47.595, but still a bit stronger than its previous close of Rs47.73/74.

On Tuesday, the rupee had risen to as much as Rs47.43, its highest since June 12. "The rupee has gained as expected. It is within a range today with a slight downward bias. Rs47.50-47.80 is the range expected for the day," said Ashtosh Raina, head of foreign exchange transactions, in HDFC Bank.

Traders said the dollar's weakness against major and a positive start to the domestic market share has helped the rupee rise, but added that he would be looking out for signs in the direction of capital flows.

The dollar remained near 2009 lows against the euro and British pound on Wednesday after a U.S. housing surprisingly strong report yesterday raised hopes that the worst of the recession was over.

Foreigners have so far in 2009 bought 7.6 billion U.S. dollars the value of local shares, after net sales of over $ 13 million last year.

A month offshore non-deliverable forward contracts quoted Rs47.71/81 largely unchanged from the spot rate on land, indicating a bullish outlook in the short term.

Employees' pension program 10 trillion yen in red

2009-09-29T03:05:00.000-07:00

Depressed stock prices, shortfalls in public pension programs nearly doubled to 10.1795 trillion yen in fiscal 2008 from the previous fiscal year, the Social Welfare Ministry reported Tuesday.
In addition, the national pension program for self-employed, unemployed, part-time workers and others who scored a red ink figure of 1.1216 trillion yen, the ministry said.

The deficit, based on market values were the highest since fiscal 2001. Comparable data for the previous period was not available.

Both pension schemes were in the red in fiscal 2007 as well. The deficit for the program of employee pension at the time came to 5.5909 trillion yen and the national pension program reported a loss of 777.9 million yen.

The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare attributed the higher losses mostly to investments in reserve funds. The global financial crisis that erupted last September caused stock prices to fall.

Employees lost pension program to 8.7252 trillion yen through investment in various market fiscal year 2008 and the national pension program was reduced from 592.4 million yen, the ministry said.

Reserve funds in both programs fell sharply to 116.6496 trillion yen for the employee pension program, to 13.5314 trillion yen since fiscal 2007, and 7.1885 trillion yen for the national pension program, to 1.2789 trillion yen.

Regarding income, the program's employees received pension premiums of 22.6905 trillion yen in fiscal 2008 to 721.4 million yen for fiscal 2007.

The higher revenues largely due to the fact that 496,000 people were in the program the previous year due to a relatively stable job market, at the beginning of fiscal 2008.

As for the national pension program, 752,000 fewer people than the premiums paid in the previous year, mainly because many baby boomers reached an age and no longer had to pay them.

This was the main reason for the decline in program income for fiscal 2008 until 1747 billion yen, 111.2 million yen for fiscal 2007.

Because pensions are financed by premiums and tax dollars, the deficit in one year does not affect the payments immediately.

"We have developed long-term prospects for the financing of pensions, taking into account stock prices and other factors, until late last year," said a ministry official social welfare.

"A balance between load and payments will continue in the future," he added.

However, if the economic crisis continues for a prolonged period, the pension might be reduced in the future.

Japan to cap forex margin

2009-09-29T03:00:00.000-07:00

TOKYO (Agencies): currency traders in Japan regardless of their influence will be up to 25 times the warranty of two years, the government said Friday a move that could curb the shell of retail investors "of currency speculation . The Financial Services Agency, said influence is limited to 50 times from August 2010 and 25 times from a year after that in line with a proposal it submitted in late May. That would be a big cut of some runners who take the offer of 400 times or more, and margins for brokers in general. Foreign exchange margin trading, which allows investors to make big bets with relatively small amounts of money, has grown in recent years in Japanese homes, dissatisfied with negligible interest rates at home, looked abroad for further performance. In a sign of its growing influence, a report from the Bank of Japan said last year that the margin of foreign exchange operations in Japan may be responsible for 10 percent of all yen spot transactions worldwide each day.

US Dollar, Japanese Yen Gain Ahead of Bank of Japan's Rate Decision

2009-09-29T01:05:00.000-07:00

The U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen were two of the strongest major currencies on Monday, just behind New Zealand dollar as risk appetite restless weighed on the S & P 500 and Dow Jones. The moves suggest that Friday was not necessarily a turning point for the dollar after the release of better-than-expected U.S. non - farm payroll results provided a boon to both currency and U.S. values, but with event risk due to continue later in the week, we will not draw conclusions.

Although not quite move the market to the Japanese yen is worth noting that the BoJ will announce its latest rate decision overnight. The BOJ is expected to leave rates unchanged at 0.1 percent, and while some economic indicators - including machine orders, industrial production and manufacturing PMI - have shown signs of improvement, the central bank is likely to continue focusing on the risks arising from the persistent weakness of domestic demand and deflation.On 12 August, traders will be watching the release of the decision of the Federal Reserve rates. The Open Market Committee (FOMC) is widely expected that the range of federal funds at 0.0 percent - 0.25 percent, but the claim could cause instability burdensome when the FOMC announces an expansion of its efforts QE or eliminating them. Generally, signs that the central bank may increase purchases of Treasury have been negative for the U.S. dollar, but the evidence that the program is completed in the next month could send the dollar spiraling more. Although highly unlikely, any change to the previous wording that "economic conditions are likely to ensure exceptionally low levels of the federal funds rate for a prolonged period" is sure spark sharp volatility in financial markets

OIL FUTURES: Crude Futures Slip Lower On Rebounding Dollar

2009-09-29T01:03:00.000-07:00

NEW YORK (Reuters) - U.S. crude futures ended lower on Monday as the dollar rose against the euro and stocks fell.

"The current strength of the dollar upward momentum repressed in the oil market," said Stephen Schork, editor of the newsletter The Schork Report energy.

Growth Surprise Boosts Euro

2009-09-29T01:00:00.000-07:00

Patterns in the forex market seem to be changing: for a long period of time, every time the crisis intensified, the dollar and yen benefited. Participants in the safer market, the more the euro strengthened. Most of the rest of the world and emerging market currencies benefited from increased risk appetite as well. As confidence grows that the economy may have bottomed out, the markets are focusing more on the comparison of the evolution of various countries, particularly the pace of recovery in these regions, and when you can decide to terminate the quantitative expansionary monetary policies and flexible measures.

After the publication of the U.S. the labor market last Friday, both the euro and the yen had been severely damaged. USD-JPY rose 2 ½ to 97.50 yen, EUR-USD fell from 1.4350 to 1.4150. Then, however, in the period before the FOMC meeting, the U.S. currency began to weaken again - probably mainly because market participants expected the Fed to remain cautious and focus on the continuation of its current monetary policy. The Bank of England might have had an impact on market expectations also: Inflation Report highlighted that higher interest rates than markets expected inflation would hit the target.

The Fed, however, took a position as decisive as the Bank of England. Assessing the Fed's economic situation was more positive than before: the phrase "the pace of contraction is slowing" was replaced by "economic activity has stopped." But the Fed continues to stress the weaknesses, particularly private consumption and business investment. The announcement that the Treasury securities of $ 300 billion procurement program is expected to be completed as planned in late October caused some confusion. Some people saw that - to some extent, in contrast to the Bank of England - as the beginning of an exit from quantitative easing. Market reaction was short-lived, however. This decision was, in fact, in line with expectations.

In the second half of the week, the dollar came under fresh pressure after surprisingly good growth figures for the second quarter in the euro area, on the one hand, and somewhat disappointing U.S. Retail sales figures for the other. According to preliminary estimates, the decline in real GDP in the euro area declined from -2.5% to -0.1% in the fourth quarter. Compared with the previous year, the decline was reduced from -4.9% to -4.6%. The largest euro zone economies, Germany and France, have returned to positive growth rates (0.3%, respectively, in the fourth quarter). In both countries, private consumption, government spending and net exports had a positive impact, while business investment continued to fall.

Then, however, U.S. retail sales figures dampened the optimism instead of taking as expected due to the U.S. cash-for-pots regime, there was a decrease of 0.1% in July compared with the previous month. The 2.4% increase in car sales was not enough for the total amount in positive territory. Sales fell in most product groups, suggesting that new cars are, perhaps, instead of buying other goods.

Sales figures from the U.S. were not good, but not abysmal. Strong market reaction may be given that market participants are well aware of the risks to the recovery scenario - the labor market and private consumption: an improvement without private households is almost unthinkable in the U.S.. The markets will have to keep a close eye on consumer data, such as consumer confidence.

On the U.S. side, we think it likely that the slightly positive trend in macroeconomic data could continue for the moment. Next week sees the launch of the leading figures in August for the manufacturing sector, which now benefits from new inventory and the car scrapping scheme. The housing market also is likely to continue to stabilize. From this point of view, EUR-USD, currently at just under 1.43, you may lose some ground again. In light of the surprisingly strong GDP in Q2 and on the general assumption that the ECB is likely to be harder than the Fed, the euro should remain well supported, however. Presumably, within the trading margins for the moment.

Algeria's forex reserves steady at $144.3 bln-cenbank

2009-09-29T00:58:00.000-07:00

Algeria held 144.3 billion U.S. dollars in foreign reserves at the end of June this year, largely unchanged from six months earlier, the official APS news agency quoted central bank governor, who said on Sunday.
The last time central banks in Algeria has highlighted the size of its foreign exchange reserves was in December 2008, saying it stood at 143.1 billion U.S. dollars.

Algerian officials have repeatedly said the oil and gas producer is safe from the turmoil in global financial markets because it has dramatically reduced the national debt and increasingly dependent on their own income to finance development.

However, the fall in world energy prices has reduced revenue from oil and gas sales, which account for 97 percent of Algeria's total exports.

Last month the government banned domestic banks issuing consumer loans in an effort to reduce imports and boost the trade surplus shrinking the country.

U.S. Dollar Unusual Behaviour Despite Continuing Risk Taking Environment

2009-09-29T00:56:00.000-07:00

Since mid-2008 until February 2009, the dollar had been the vehicle for safe haven. But in March, when the risk appetite came back into the market, safe-haven trade gradually began to relax. This means that, since March, good news for the economy has meant bad news for the dollar.

You can see from the chart below of sterling against the U.S. dollar. The pound fell sharply (U.S. dollar rose) in risk aversion as investors fled to the dollar. Now the pound is higher in riding a wave of increasing risk appetite.

Within this environment of risk, the relationship between risk and financial markets has been very clear: When risk appetite is high ... stocks, commodities, interest rates and all currencies (except the U.S. dollar) rally. When fear creeps back, the benefits of the dollar, the benefits of U.S. Treasury market and almost everything else fails.

So when the jobs report last week showed a lower unemployment and fewer job losses, the dollar should have been a great success. But it did not. Instead, they met!

Well, one day does not a trend.

And after the market digested a statement from the Fed cautiously positive this week on the economy, the activity resulting in the coins spoke clearly: For the moment, is still risk appetite.

I, however, expect a shift in market focus to be held in the short term, to accommodate this growing sense of recovery. I think that global capital will begin to shift towards economies that are relative outperformers. And for 2009 and 2010 consensus estimates of U.S. outperforming other major developed market economies.

Last month the IMF lowered its forecast in the euro area, hoping that the economy of the region to fall from 4.8 percent in 2009. And for 2010, while all other economies are expected to grow, the euro area is expected to fall further.

So, Germany and France, the two largest euro zone economies, shocked the market this week by the announcement of real growth for the second quarter!

Besides this, central banks are to improve economic forecasts for 2009, when it was thought to be a complete disaster. And 2010 was promoted further.

In fact, the European Central Bank has now revised its expectations for 2009 and 2010: Waiting for only a mild contraction in 2009 and growth in 2010.

However, in a period less bad is the new product, and economies are no longer in free fall and are now showing signs of improvement, the story is about the sustainability of the recovery, not just data points.

U.K. Halifax Prices Provide Positive Stimulus Ahead of European Open

2009-09-29T00:46:00.000-07:00

July UK Halifax house price index rose 1.1% m / m, in line with the national reading for the same month (which was 1.3%) and the 3m / rate and now the 12.1%.

Halifax data therefore serve to highlight that the housing market may be stabilizing now, despite the low bid is the price comparison distort trade.

USD and the JPY is likely to maintain its inverse correlation with stock market performance and the associated ebb and flow of risk appetite. We currently have over ebb the flow of the securities markets as a pause after recent impressive gains, fueled by a set Q2 better than expected corporate earnings season and the promotion of global economic data. Concern about a correction in the Chinese market came back today, with bank stocks amid pressure so that Beijing could tighten capital requirements, while the potential to keep rising corporate earnings announcements and guidance being reduced simply by the fact that most companies have reported. Thus the tone for the morning European trade is likely to be conducive to the USD and the JPY and more negative for beta-type coins. There is some potential for a sharp recovery in the U.S. and the currencies of Japan, given the magnitude of net short positions held by the market, though we may have some type of catalyst (ie, negative news event data) to trigger a brief crisis coverage. A schedule of data availability hangs today.

Forex Exchange Morning Report 5-8-2009

2009-09-28T07:36:00.000-07:00

Foreign currency Morning Report
Currency risk his tone remained firm last night thanks to the support, but mixed U.S. data. The ADP payroll report produced a small negative surprise, hurting investor sentiment capital and the S & P500 at the opening, but the factory orders report later easily exceed the consensus, help revive the closure of the risks in New York. The S & P 500 closed down 0.3% but, importantly, yield 4.4% of banks index. Oil was little changed, but the terrain over 1.1% copper. U.S. Treasury Bonds rebounded with the data, the 10yr note 8bp higher on the day.
EUR varied between 1.4355 and 1.4445, a disappointing retail sales report little damage, but has recovered from the upper bound. A series of strong UK data pushed above 1.7043 GBP. JPY hovered around its recent 95 the area of consolidation. We note the margin retailers aggressively cut short JPY. The reaffirmation of Moody's Baa1 rating of Mexico increased the weight of 1.3%.
AUD rebounded with the data, and extremes during the night of 0.8450 and 0.8360, but it's about where it closed at 0.8405 yesterday in Sydney.
NZD remained relatively stable, perhaps supported by the residual feeling of the previous rise in prices of milk powder, and remains around 0.6730. The result of the milk kept the pressure on AUD / NZD overnight, reaching a low of 1.2443.
U.S. 47.0 non-manufacturing ISM fell to 46.4 in July. This reflected a drop of almost 4 pts in the business activity index, fell by 2 pts in jobs and a small drop in orders, with displacement of inventories and supplier deliveries. There is a surprising result for us, as the jump had looked over June, the upward trend in this survey is still intact.
U.S. 371k ADP private payrolls in July. This compares with a drop of 463k in June, suggesting that Friday's payrolls report also showed a slower rate of job loss. However, ADP is not a reliable guide to the payrolls, though as in June, which seems to understand the proper and we hope all payrolls to show an improvement even bleaker (forecast WBC-270K), given the statistical distortions related to the auto sector hiring.
Orders for U.S. factory increase of 0.4% in June. A drop of 2.7% in nondurable goods (mainly due to energy prices) to offset the decline of 2.2% known in the durable goods component. Inventories at factories fell 0.8%.
Retail sales fell euro zone by 0.2% in June, its sixth decline in seven months, pointing to a further contraction likely in Q2 household spending.
The UK industrial production rose 0.5% in June, the strongest monthly increase since October 2007 and one of only four monthly increases since then. This result adds weight to the view that the British economy may have bottomed out sometime in the second quarter.
Surveys of the United Kingdom point to improve the economy. Consumer confidence nationally in July rose 59 to 60, the Halifax reported a house price by 1.1% last month break, and the British Retail Consortium saw only a modest discount in July, with price growth of the year tends to decrease 0.7% to 0.5% a year. Most impressive was the increase from 51.6 to 53.2 in the services PMI, which aims to accelerate growth in this sector.
Outlook today should be emphasized twice Employment Reports billing New Zealand and Australia. In New Zealand, a number higher than 5.7% may be dismissed as historical data (which would also have to be worse than expected 5.9% Bank of New Zealand to have implications for monetary policy), but somewhat less likely provoke a response in the USD bullish. We favor the kiwi higher in the coming sessions, initially to around 0.6900, with limited temporary fixes to 0.6650.

Gold above $950/oz, weak dollar lifts hard assets

2009-09-28T07:27:00.001-07:00

LONDON (Reuters) - Gold held above $ 950 an ounce in Europe on Monday, bolstered by a weaker dollar, but further gains were limited by a shortage of demand for physical stocks of metal of jewelers and exchange-traded funds.

Silver prices rose to more than five weeks, however, as the largest silver-backed ETF reported an increase of 61 tons in its holdings of the metal to a new record.

Gold was bid at 954.10 dollars an ounce at 4:29 GMT, against $ 953.90 an ounce in New York on Friday. The silver went to $ 14.16 an ounce against $ 13.89, after touching a high of $ 14.19.

"Despite the weak dollar and the recovery in risk appetite could push (gold top), his failure so far to break above a key resistance point suggests that prices have a limited upside," said Pradeep Unni, senior analyst at Global Richcomm Services.

"The lackluster investment demand and low physical demand are adding to concerns that the summer rally may stop holding on to gains," he said.

The largest gold holdings in support of the ETF, New York, SPDR Gold Trust, were unchanged for a second day Friday after falling about 50 tons in July.

Foundation Securities in London, meanwhile said that the holdings of its three gold-backed exchange traded products (CTE) fell 1.2 percent last week. ETFs, including CTE, issues of securities backed by physical assets, and their purchase was a great source of gold demand in the first quarter.

Jewelry demand was also mediocre and consumption in India was weakened in the back of higher prices. "Operators are waiting for lower prices," said one trader.

But the weak dollar, which is driving demand for hard assets like gold and it is cheaper for holders of other currencies, has the strong support for gold prices.

The U.S. currency held near its lowest point this year against a basket of currencies as oil prices, rising global equity markets and positive U.S. economic data off investing in currencies seen as more risky.

STOCKS CLIMB

Global stocks surged to a new level of 2009 on Monday after signs of a rebound in economic activity in China helped push shares in Asia. European shares also rose after a shaky start to the day.

Rising stock markets and optimism over China's demand for hard assets boosted the interest in oil, with prices increasing at a high month. Oil prices in general, support stronger interest in gold as a hedge against oil-led inflation.

Oil and the dollar also fueled the gains in silver prices, but metal was further supported by a fresh entry in the largest silver-backed ETF, the iShares Silver Trust New York.
Its properties rose more than 60 tons to a record 8828 tonnes on Friday

"We expect silver to continue broadly tracking gold and the dollar in the coming sessions, with the intensification of the resistance expected around $ 14.40/14.65" said James Moore, analyst at TheBullionDesk.com.

Platinum was at $ 1211.50 an ounce, against $ 1207.50, while palladium was at $ 261 against $ 261.50. The platinum group metals traders are awaiting data from U.S. car sales later in the session management.

Since both platinum and palladium are mainly used in catalysts, prices have suffered a decline in demand for cars in the past year.
