What Is The Bank Of Japan To Do?
The Bank of Japan is unlikely to change policy. Its current policy of targeting 10-year bond yields and expanding the balance sheet by JPY80 trillion is aimed at boosting core inflation to 2%. However, the risk is that BOJ Governor Kuroda surprises the market as he has done on other occasions. If Kuroda is going to surprise the […]
What Will Policy Normalization Mean For Credit Markets (Wonkish)
Right now, in the wake of the French 1st round election results, the Fed futures market is saying there’s a 72% chance of a Fed rate hike by June. So the obvious question is what this means for the economy, especially given recent yield curve flattening. I am cautiously optimistic. But I have some caveats […]
Still In So Many Ways 2014
What was it that touched off CNY’s devaluation in the first place? When it started, “unexpectedly” of course, it was described as intentional policy designed to thwart speculators betting too heavily on the currency’s continued rise. But the first major move in the chess game between the PBOC and “whatever” it is driving the currency was […]

One Analyst Compared US Stocks To European Stocks – Here’s What He Found
So one of the things we (and others) noted going into the first round of the French elections was that investors and traders were hardly bearish on anything European. “Overweight” European equities was on everyone’s reco list, € credit was (still) asleep at the wheel despite sovereign spreads’ best efforts to convey redenomination risk, and as […]

EUR/USD From A Double Top To Low Resistance – 3 Reasons
EUR/USD certainly has an interesting week. It began with a significant 200 pip Sunday gap on the French elections, reaching 1.0930. When things cooled down, it found itself at support some 100 pips lower. That 1.0830 level worked as the initial 2017 high. It moved up from there, settling above 1.0870, the December 2016 swing peak. Another […]
