Dollar-Bloc Firms, While Stabilization Of Bond Markets Lifts Equities
Equities and bond markets are mostly trading higher today. The dollar is little changed against the euro and yen but is softer against the dollar-bloc. Sterling extended is a post-election rally with the help of a gain in average weekly earnings, but returned offered after a somewhat more dovish BOE Quarterly Inflation Report. […]

Presenting Spain’s “Part-Time” Recovery
Spain’s economic data lost all credibility once the local bureau of economics, statistics and other goalseeked numbers decided to arbitrarily start adding what it estimated was the “contribution” from not only local drug dealers but also hookers.

EUR/USD Chopping Away At The 100 EMA
The EUR/USD pair initially broke higher during the course of the session on Tuesday, but pulled back significantly. We are closing the day just above the 1.12 handle, and while that is somewhat bullish, we have been essentially going nowhere over the last several sessions.
