  • The euro sliced through the 1.3000 level while the pound dropped below 1.4600 in early European trade as concern over ECB policy actions and some risk aversion flows in European equities weighed on high beta currencies at the start of the week. Comments over the week-end by ECB chief Jean Claude Trichet suggested that the central bank may lower rates by another 25bp to 1.00 percent while ECB Executive Board member Lorenzo Bini Smaghi said the bank’s benchmark 1.25 percent interest rate is “very close” to its floor.
  • The euro remained under pressure throughout Asian and early European trade dogged by risk aversion flows and mounting concerns over the lingering economic contraction in the 16 member union while the pound continued to rally approaching the key psychological figure of 1.5000. A story in UK Telegraph noted that fully one third of European junk bond credits could default on their debt as the export driven region sees no signs of pick up in demand.
  • The EUR/USD regained the 1.3000 handle on early European trade after the ZEW survey of investor sentiment printed better than forecast. The ZEW for the month of March came in at -6.5 versus -12 forecast as investor sentiment improved for the fifth month in a row, The data was somewhat surprising given the dour state of conditions in EZ industrial sector, but clearly investor optimism was driven by hope that the massive fiscal and monetary stimulus put in place by most of the G10 block will soon begin to yield dividends and revive global demand.
  • Yen was the star performer in overnight trade gaining more than three big figures from yesterday on repatriation flows ahead of the Japanese fiscal year end. After trading as high as 99.12 just two days ago USD/JPY fell to a low of 95.67 in early European session on rumors of large bond redemptions that drove EUR/JPY lower by nearly 300 points and dragged EUR/USD down all night long.

What is social bookmarking?

Social bookmarking refers to a method you can use to store, organize and manage bookmarks of web pages that interest you. These could be news articles, movie reviews, places you want to visit — any type of web page. The main advantage is that unlike traditional Internet bookmarks that are specific to one computer, you can use social bookmarking to add and access bookmarks from any computer with an Internet connection.

Another benefit of social bookmarking is the ability to share web pages with friends, family or anyone who has similar interests. Likewise, you can visit the pages that other social bookmarkers share with you.

All pages within our website include links to social bookmarking websites. These websites are free to use and require only a simple registration. This allows you to capture useful information you find on our website and share it with other traders like yourself. Your GFT bookmarks can become a reference if you have a question, want to revisit a concept that you found valuable or would like to tell someone about GFT.
