FX & Rates

The ECB has effectively implemented a taper…although Draghi won’t call it that.  It softened the blow with a kind of policy twist including a modest fall in short-term rates.  The EUR resolved to the downside after the ECB meeting in what has become an increasingly volatile FX market response to these events.  However, we presume this to be more related to political uncertainty in Europe since the no vote in the Italian referendum and PM Renzi resignation last weekend.  The risk is building for EUR to break below its 1.05 support setting in train a deeper more persistent decline.  AUD has so far held its ground since the shockingly weak GDP data this week, but it too may be building for a deeper fall as its yield advantage declines, global yields rise, and Chinese commodity prices give up some of their recent surge.

USD Renewed Strength to Pressure Asian FX

We are at an interesting juncture where higher US yields may contribute to stronger USA investor confidence.  Businesses may sense that the interest rate cycle has turned encouraging them to accelerate plans to borrow and spend.  On the other hand, higher-yielding countries that have experienced a rise to record and dangerous levels of household debt, Australia and New Zealand, have economies that are threatened by higher interest rates.  US economic data is showing more strength supporting the case for higher rates in the USA.  Australian capital expenditure and building approvals data suggest the economy is stalling.  While the USA appears to be moving forward with infrastructure spending, the Australian government feels hamstrung by threats of a rating down-grade.  We have noted that a rising yield environment is a threat to high yield currencies, like the AUD and NZD, that out-performed earlier in the year as yields fell to record lows.  We see risk building for more significant falls in AUD and NZD.
