Asian session: The dollar and yen dropped

The dollar and yen dropped against most major peers as traders estimated policy makers in the U.S. and Japan will maintain or expand monetary stimulus measures.

The greenback fell for a fifth day versus the euro after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said economic conditions aren’t where he’d like them to be. Bernanke said yesterday that Fed tests of whether U.S. financial companies could survive a severe recession have strengthened the banking system and aided economic growth. “Today the economy is significantly stronger than it was four years ago, although conditions are clearly still far from where we would all like them to be,” he said in a speech in Stone Mountain, Georgia.

The yen slid to a more than three-year low against the euro as Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said currency movements are having an overall positive impact. The yen plunged 6.4 percent in the previous three days versus the dollar, the most since 1988, after the Bank of Japan took unprecedented easing steps. The yen hasn’t been at 100 per dollar since April 2009. The currency’s 14-day relative strength index against the greenback was at 27, below the 30 level that some traders see as a sign an asset’s price has fallen too fast.


EUR / USD: during the Asian session, the pair rose to $ 1.3070.

GBP / USD: during the Asian session, the pair rose to $ 1.5280.

USD / JPY: during the Asian session, the pair rose to Y99.70, but fell to Y99.05 later.


The European calendar gets underway at 0600GMT Tuesday, with the release of the German February trade balance data. French data starts at 0630GMT, when the March Banque de France business survey is released, followed at 0645GMT by the February foreign trade numbers. German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble and U.S. Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew, are scheduled to give a joint press conference after their meeting, in Berlin. Lew is on his second day of a two-day trip to eurozone capitals. The presser is set for 0830GMT. Also at 0830GMT, Sweden Riksbank Gov. Stefan Ingves takes part in the Riksdag Finance Committee's hearing in Stockholm. At 1600GMT, Bundesbank board member Carl-Ludwig Thiele is to speak about the Bundesbank role in the Eurosystem, in Frankfurt. At the same time, ECB Executive Board member Joerg Asmussen is to speak, in Nuertingen, Germany. Today we have IP/Mfg out at 0830GMT, alongside trade numbers. However, Monday's sterling pullback could be seen as market positioning for such an event, therefore a surprise set of strong data could provide a bigger reaction.

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.
