<\/strong>\"115\"<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

After a slight retreat the Dollar regained momentum once again as growth bets seem slightly ahead of economic data. Economic data in the US and Europe was rather positive with US initial Jobless claims holding steady at 500k and US leading indicators index rising 0.3% as lower rates supported growth. But nor the positive economic data nor the projection of 2010 growth by the Treasury Secretly was able to lift sentiment. The fears the US housing market will weigh on the US economy continued to loom and pushed the dollar higher in broad profit taking pullback. The Euro ended the day around 1.49$<\/strong> and the Sterling closed the day around 1.665$<\/strong> marking a strongly bearish.<\/p>\n

Equities<\/span><\/strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n

Sentiment was rather negative with benchmark indexes on in the red with dominant profit taking almost across the board. \u00a0The global bearish sentiment was led by weakness in the resources sector with Alcoa falling close to -4% in the US and in the UK Rio Tinto was lower by -.3.8%.At the day\u2019s end the Dow shed\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0-0.9%<\/strong>, the S&P was lower by -1.34%<\/strong> and the FTSE fell by -1.39%.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Commodities<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Gold continued to perform well and although retreat slightly to 1140$ an ounce it later rebounded higher still close to its historical record at 1150$.Silver hovered slightly below the 19$.While precious Metals were supported by lower rates expectations Oil sank lower amid lower growth expectations settling around 77.5$ a barrel.<\/p>\n

The Day Ahead<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

The opening event for markets will be the BoJ rate decision in Japan with investors largely expecting no change in key rates as economic conditions in Japan remain fragile. Investors will follow the BoJ rhetoric carefully and will be keen to figure wither the BoJ will go back into QE measures as deflation prissiest and keeps salaries and business under pressure. Any statement in that context could affect the Yen dramatically with Yen potentially encountering large bids. In Europe German PPI will reflect on inflationary pressures in the EU nevertheless the broad sentiment in Europe and the US is expected to be lead by Equities and the Dollar. A high dollar has the potential to pull markets back into red territory once again.<\/p>\n
