Markets Confused about Canadian Dollar
Jul 02, 3:49PM
On a trade-weighted basis, the Canadian Dollar (aka Loonie) has appreciated nearly 10% in 2010. At the same time, it has fallen 8% against the Dollar since the beginning of May. This contradiction is reflected in an explosion in volatility: “CAD has been very volatile – the average intraday spread between the high and low [...]
Emerging Markets Rally, Despite Eurozone Debt Crisis
Jun 29, 6:06AM
It looks like emerging market investors took my last post (“Investors” Shouldn't Worry about the Euro) to heart, since emerging markets (EM) have continued to rally in spite of the Euro’s woes. To be sure, EM stocks, bonds, and currencies all dipped slightly in May when the crisis reached fever pitch, but they have since [...]
"Investors" Shouldn't Worry about the Euro
Jun 26, 6:00AM
With today’s post, I want to take off my currency trader hat and put on my investor hat. You might be tempted to argue: But wait, these two aren’t mutually exclusive. Isn’t it possible to wear both hats? While it’s theoretically plausible for a trader to take a long-term view of the markets based on fundamental [...]
China Revalues RMB….by .4%
Jun 24, 6:25AM
It was only last week that I mused about “Further Delays in RMB Revaluation.” Lo and behold, over the weekend, the Central Bank finally budged, by pledging to the members of the G20 that it would ” ‘proceed further with reform‘ of the exchange rate and ‘enhance’ flexibility.” Upon reading this, I suppose I should [...]
SNB Abandons Intervention
Jun 22, 5:02AM
The Swiss National Bank (SNB) has apparently admitted (temporary) defeat in its battle to hold down the value of the Franc. ” ‘The SNB has reached its limits and if the market wants to see a franc at 1.35 versus the euro, they won't be able to stop it.’ ” The markets have won. The [...]
Euro Rally only Temporary
Jun 19, 6:55PM
Something incredible has happened: The Euro has reversed is 16.5% decline (from peak to trough), and since bottoming on June 7 at $1.1876, it has risen by an impressive 4%. I guess that means the Euro has been rescued from parity (which I characterized as “inevitable” on June 5)? Not exactly. While financial journalists have interpreted [...]
Further Delays in RMB Appreciation
Jun 17, 12:11PM
Throughout 2010, I have continuously reported on the apparent inevitability of the Chinese Yuan appreciation. That the currency still remains firmly fixed in place against the Dollar is a testament not only to the unpredictability of forex, but also to the doggedness of Chinese officials. It seemed that China’s policymakers were all but set in February to [...]
No US Rate Hike in 2010
Jun 16, 3:53AM
In the midst of the Eurozone debt crisis, forex investors have largely stopped paying attention to interest rate differentials and focused the brunt of their attention on risk. Soon enough, however, there will be a resurgence in the carry trade, at which point interest rates will return to the forefront of investors consciousness. >From the standpoint of the [...]
Risk Aversion Hits Australian Dollar
Jun 13, 3:56PM
These days, I feel like you could take that title and substitute pretty much any currency for the Australian Dollar. Let’s face it- the EU sovereign debt crisis has hit a number of currencies extremely hard, as investors have fled anything and everything risky, in favor of the US Dollar, Swiss Franc, Japanese Yen, and [...]
