Dj news: "Japanese shares may open higher amid signs of stabilization in U.S. stock futures in early morning Asian trading following Wall Street's losses overnight" ..... MKT BULLISH

Forex live: European Central Bank board member and Bank of Portugal Governor Mario Centeno spoke at a conference in Lisbon on Monday.
Asked whether he thinks the ECB should raise interest rates by less than 75 basis points, Centeno said: "I don't like to talk about increases before (meetings)...(but) I think there are many conditions for the rates increase to be less than that number"..... EUR bearish

Tradingeconomics: "UK Budget Gap Below Forecasts. 
Public sector net borrowing excluding public sector banks in the UK was £13.5 billion in October of 2022, £4.4 billion more than in October 2021 and the fourth highest October borrowing since monthly records began in 1993. However, figures came below market forecasts of a £22 billion deficit." ..... GBP Bearish

TE: "Japanese Shares Climb in Broad Rally.
The Nikkei 225 Index climbed 0.61% to 28,116 while the broader Topix Index added 1.12% to 1,995 on Tuesday, extending gains from the previous session, with nearly all sectors finishing in positive territory. Still, investors remain cautious ahead of US Federal Reserve meeting minutes that could offer clues on the trajectory of US rate hikes, while monitoring the Covid situation in China." ..... MKT Bullish


TE: "NZ Dollar Firms Up Ahead of RBNZ Decision.
The New Zealand dollar firmed up above $0.61 on Tuesday, holding its ground ahead of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand’s policy decision, where it is expected to deliver an unprecedented 75 basis point rate hike to get inflation under control." ..... NZD Bullish

TE: "Dollar Eases as Fed Outlook Mulled.
The dollar index fell to around 107.5 on Tuesday, giving back some gains from the previous session as investors cautiously awaited the latest Federal Reserve meeting minutes that could guide the outlook for US rates. Traders also parsed through various remarks from Fed officials who have largely maintained a strong commitment to bring down inflation. In the latest commentary, San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly warned against overtightening, while Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester said she wants to see inflation come down sustainably before supporting a pause." ..... USD Bearish

TE: "New Zealand Trade Deficit Widens in October.
New Zealand recorded a trade deficit of 21.29 NZD billion in October of 2022 versus 16.15 billion in the previous month." ..... NZD Bearish

Reuters: "Fed's Mester (2022 voter) said it makes sense to slow down a bit the pace of rate hikes and that they can now be very deliberate in setting policy, while she noted the Fed needs to be more judicious in balancing risks but added the Fed is not anywhere near to stopping rate hikes. Furthermore, Mester thinks they can slow down from 75bps at the December meeting and said that going forward, they need to let the economy tell them the pace of rate hikes" ..... USD Bearish

FT: "ECB's Holzmann said he supports a 75bps hike in December and noted there are no signs that price pressures are easing" ..... EUR Bullish

Bloomberg: "ECB's Centeno sees conditions for rate hikes to be less than 75bps in December and said they "really have to reverse" the trend of rising inflation to have greater visibility on monetary policy" ..... EUR Bearish

Bloomberg: "Saudi officials denied reports of talks regarding increasing OPEC+ oil output and said the current cut of 2mln BPD is to continue until the end of 2023" ..... Oil Bullish

DJ news: "The latest eurozone current account data on Tuesday showed some early signs of rebalancing and this should support the euro, HSBC says" ..... EUR Bullish

DJ news: "The dollar falls after more cautious comments from Federal Reserve officials Loretta Mester and Mary Daly about the outlook for interest rates, MUFG Bank says. The release of the latest Fed meeting minutes on Wednesday will be the next key test for the dollar as it will provide insight into the central bank's policy thinking ahead of its next meeting on Dec. 14, MUFG currency analyst Lee Hardman says in a note. "The U.S. rate market is currently confident that the Fed will slow the pace of hikes by delivering a 50 basis points [rate rise] in December and then for rates to peak at around 5.00% next year." ..... USD Bearish

SENTIMENT 22 NOV

 



Time            Risk
10 am            ON






QUOTES 22 NOV

ASB bank: "we and many other forecasters are predicting that the RBNZ will lift the OCR by 75bp on Wednesday, which would be a step up in pace after five consecutive 50bp moves. It is by no means a done deal, which is reflected in interest rate pricing that puts the odds of a 75bp move (vs. 50bp) at around 60%." ..... NZD Bullish

ING: "China’s Covid situation has suddenly returned as a very central driver for global markets this week. Over 27,000 cases were reported today, with the city of Guangzhou being the new epicentre of the outbreak, and local authorities are reportedly scrambling to impose those same restrictive measures that appeared a thing of the past after recent signals from the central government that the zero-Covid policy would be gradually abandoned." ..... MKT Bearish


CALENDAR 22 NOV

 






QUOTES 21 NOV

 ING: "Wednesday will see the release of the minutes of the 2 November FOMC meeting. At the time, we felt that it was still a reasonably hawkish meeting - although the Fed clearly wanted to shift the narrative from the size of rate hikes to the terminal rate. The minutes could pose a risk that the current dollar correction extends - especially since we will be faced with thin markets later this week as the US celebrates the Thanksgiving public holiday on Thursday. But assuming there are no big surprises - e.g. 'many participants wanting to take stock of the tightening undertaken so far, we would expect the dollar to find support on dips." ..... USD BULLISH


ING: " In addition to the continued wall of European Central Bank speakers, this week will see the advanced November PMIs for the eurozone, Germany and France.  The composite PMIs are expected to be in contraction territory for all three and be a reminder that at some point the ECB will probably call time on its tightening cycle. Our team's view is that the ECB hikes 50bp on 15 December (59bp priced in the markets) and then finishes the cycle with a 25bp hike in February. In other words, we look for the cycle to conclude at 2.25% rather than the 2.90% area priced for the markets in late summer." ..... EUR BEARISH
