Asian session: The Australian dollar climbed

Data:
01:30 Australia Producer Price Index (YoY) (Q1) 2.9%
01:30 Australia Producer Price Index (QoQ) (Q1) 1.2%
05:00 Japan Coincident Index (Feb) 106.8
05:00 Japan Leading Economic Index (Feb) 104.2

The Australian dollar climbed to a record after a government report showed producer prices rose more than economists estimated in the first quarter, providing additional evidence that growth is quickening.
The so-called Aussie strengthened for a third day and New Zealand’s advanced for a second versus the U.S. currency as stock gains boosted demand for the nations’ higher-yielding assets. New Zealand’s dollar reached a three-year high versus the greenback as traders added to bets the central bank will raise interest rates over the next 12 months.
Producer prices in Australia rose 1.2 percent in the first quarter from the prior three months when they climbed 0.1 percent, the Bureau of Statistics said in Sydney. Economists forecast a 1 percent increase.
Rudd ruled out intervention in the so-called Aussie, which has gained 16 percent in the past year against the dollar. The currency’s gains have been spurred by revenue from shipments of coal and iron ore to China, and they have hurt Australian tourism, manufacturing and education.
Benchmark interest rates are 4.75 percent in Australia and 2.5 percent in New Zealand, compared with as low as zero in the U.S. and Japan, attracting investors to the South Pacific nations’ higher-yielding assets.
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand will raise its benchmark rate by 63 basis points in the next 12 months, a Credit Suisse Group AG index based on swaps showed today. That compares with a prediction of 49 basis points yesterday.


EUR/USD: the pair grown above a mark $1,4600. 
GBP/USD: the pair grown in around $1,6490.
USD/JPY: the pair shown low in the field of Y81,80 then returned above mark Y82,00.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
