Precious metals little-changed following yesterday’s short-covering bounce


Gold and silver both started the day a touch weaker following Tuesday’s short-covering rally. But prices recovered somewhat in the afternoon as gold found decent support at $1255, a level which had previously offered resistance. This behaviour of price thus suggests the technical picture is continuing to look constructive for the bulls for now. But there is little in the way of economic data for the financial markets to get excited about, so we are likely to see some more profit taking and range-bound price action for the remainder of today’s session. In fact, this will most likely remain the theme until that FOMC meeting is out of the way next Wednesday.

UDJPY: 105.00 on the cards


USDJPY is coming under some downward pressure today after hitting a high of 103.40. This is not unusual as the daily relative strength index is testing 70 and is close to overbought territory after a strong rally in recent weeks.

We are approaching a key resistance zone between 103.50 (rumoured barrier option level) and 103.75 – the high from 22nd May. This could prove to be sticky and may account for today’s pullback.

Chinese and Japanese economic data misses expectations


It was a session of misses in Asia, with Japan’s GDP and trade figures, as well as China’s inflation data all coming in below expectations. The implications of the unexpected figures from the two neighbouring countries contrast each other. Lower inflation in China may provide Beijing with more room to support the economy during a difficult transition, while Japan’s data highlights the problems facing Tokyo.

EURUSD: Further gains possible but the outlook remains fragile


EURUSD managed to hold short term support this morning at 1.3535 – the bottom of the ascending channel on the hourly chart. This comes after a rare positive surprise for Spain’s labour market. Unemployment fell by 2.5k, better than the 50k increase expected and the largest drop since July. This has been followed by a bullish crossover in the hourly MACD, which suggests the short term momentum could be higher.

Japan’s slew of economic data isn’t a game changer


Japan released CPI, industrial production, manufacturing PMI and labour market data today with mixed results. In October consumer prices rose 1.1% y/y as expected and core-core CPI, which excludes food and energy prices, rose more than expected at 0.3% y/y. Preliminary industrial production for October increased less than expected at 0.5% (exp. 2.0%) and Japan’s jobless rate remained steady at 4.0% (exp. 3.9%), while manufacturing PMI jumped to 55.1 from 54.2 this month.
