MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 04.02.2016



Bank of England rate decision day

Later today, the Bank of England will announce its interest rate decision. There seems a little possibility that rates will be increased today. In fact, recent comments by the Governor of the Bank of England, Mr Mark Carney have been dovish and market friendly.

Mr Carney has sighted the pessimistic growth global outlook, the collapse in commodity prices and less than encouraging wage and consumer inflation as reasons to put off increasing interest rates in 2016.

Far from being convinced of the inevitability of a rate increase happening once data begins to improve, some market commentators are now openly talking up the merits of the Bank of England reversing course and reducing the Official Bank Rate from its present level of 0.50%.

In today’s Super Thursday statements, the markets will be looking for a change in the mood of the Bank of England’s commentary. Will Mr Mark Carney now move to downgrading the previous projections for wages, employment and inflation? Furthermore, will we see a seismic shock as the markets have to deal with one or more members of the Monetary Policy Committee shifting their stance from hold to negative on interest rates?

The Bank of England does have some room to manoeuvre as the current overnight rate in relative terms is high when compared to say, Eurozone, Japanese, and Swiss interest rates. Therefore, the Bank of England has some way to go before it even has to contemplate moving towards negative rates.

The question however is, will cutting an already low level of interest rates had any real effect other than stoking the fire under the housing bubble. Japanese business has enjoyed low levels of interest cost for a considerable time without any noticeable change investment.

Fiscal measures could be reintroduced as was the case during the great recession of 2008.  However, the massive stimulus programmes that were initiated by the US Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan and Bank of England have not brought the expected results.

The central banks of the world are fast running out of tools which they can use to stimulate their economies. A race to the bottom in a currency war is not a real solution.

It would appear that the coming months will be pivotal for Mr Carney and his counterparts at the US Federal Reserve and European Central Bank. The time is ripe for better solutions rather than more of the same. The problem for the decision makers is that there are no obvious alternatives.

USDCAD




The intraday technical outlook

This morning USDCAD has traded in a small range with the price action initially testing the Daily Pivot that is found at the 1.3847 level,

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 10.02.2016






Today at 3:00 PM London time, the Federal Reserve, Chairwoman, Mrs Janet Yellen will give testimony to the House Financial Services Committee on the Semi-annual Monetary Policy Report.

This hearing takes place during uncertain times for both the financial markets and world economy.  On Monday, the news that CreditSights In., had questioned the German banking colossus, Deutsche Bank’s ability to pay up on its bond obligations in 2017. This report helped to contribute to a meltdown in global indices values.

Although the senior management of Deutsche Bank was quick to issue statements that denied this analyst report, the damage had already been done. The news that highlighted the potential woes of a bank that is so key to Germany’s and Europe economic future has now put the spotlight back on Europe’s financial system.

The idea that we are about to revisit the dark days of 2008/2009 is a worrying spectre. Especially as confidence in Europe’s periphery is still fragile as Greece and Portugal once again returning back to the media and market spotlight.

Italy continues to struggle as it tries to break from the stranglehold of a deep recession and the move back into patchy growth. We do have news shortly from Istat which will publish the latest Italian Industrial Production number. However, following yesterday’s horrid publication by Destatis on German Industrial Production, the head of the European Central Bank will be looking over his shoulder and will be hoping for some positive news from his homeland.

Back to this afternoon’s event in Washington, Janet Yellen has the decision to take on the tone of the testimony. The FOMC has two key mandates which are to ensure price stability and a healthy employment outlook. Although the to-and-throw of short-term movements in the financial markets should not be of a concern, the Federal Reserve Chairwoman could address this subject during today’s key speech.

Of course, a shift to a dovish tone would undoubtedly go some way in giving comfort to investors who have seen the value of their equity holdings shrink since the beginning of 2016. Especially as the falls in equity value is highlighting the strain within the global banking system.

During today’s testimony, the market will be listening to the weighting that is given to the two key FOMC mandates. If Mrs Yellen sticks to the hawkish line that the labour market is strong and that economic weakness being a short-term phenomenon, them one could expect to see a continued move lower in equity values and the US Dollar gathering some respite.

However, according to market pricing the probability of the Federal Reserve dot plot that has forecast four rate increases during 2016 will just not happen. It would seem that the Federal Reserve will be lucky if it can force one rate hike in December. For sure March interest rate increase looks like it is off the table.

To end, the Italian Industrial Production number has just been reported as -0.7%. The forecast was for an improvement to 0.3%.

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 16.02.2016




News that the Russian and Saudi Oil Ministers have agreed to hold talks about cutting Oil production later today has sent Light Sweet Crude rallying above the US$31.00 per barrels in early morning trading.

Today’s talks are due to take place in Doha and have been brokered by the Qatari Oil Minister. This closed door event should resemble a poker match between two evenly matched and very competitive players as both participants will do what they can to minimise concessions.

That the Venezuelan Oil Minister will also be in attendance could be positive in pushing the talks to a successive outcome. Venezuela has suffered more than most from the collapse in the price of crude as the Government of this Latin American country struggles to maintain budget obligations. Therefore, it is in its interest to push a deal through.

Although there has been talk of a deal before, this appears to be the first serious meeting between the world’s big two oil producers. The timing of this meeting comes at a crucial juncture in Middle East politics with events in Syria threatening to redraw the geostrategic map.

The Russian military involvement in Syria and a Saudi Arabian threat to intervene military opens up the spectre of an armed clash between these two countries. Therefore, it is rather fortuitous that both the Governments have decided to open up a channel of communication.

The Saudi Government may feel that as it holds the strongest hand might decide that it does not want to comprise by cutting its own production. The Russians, however, have technical issues that restrict its ability cut oil production as the harsh Siberian climate could lead to wells being lost.

An agreement to introduce production quotas will need the Saudi’s to move away from their current policy that requires all producers agree on crude production limits. However with Iran now freed from international sanctions the prospect of increased production from this country will make the likelihood of reaching an agreement a difficult undertaking.

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 17.02.2016





The US, Federal Reserve Open Market Committee will today publish the much anticipated minutes of its last meeting.

These minutes are a detailed account of last Federal Reserve meeting. As such, this publication provides to market participants and financial media some colour on the backdrop of the meeting. These minutes allows traders to gain insights on how individual FOMC members are positioned with respect to interest rates as we approach the next Federal Reserve meeting that takes place in March.

We expect that this publication will portray rather balanced tone were the bias for tightening is limited by the current uncertainty that has gripped the market.

The minutes of the December meeting presented a united picture in terms of how the committee members unanimously voted for a rate increase. However, some members of the FOMC did voice concerns that this decision to hike the Fed Funds rate may have been premature.

Market volatility is bound to increase just prior and during the publication. However, what will be of interest will be to see if the dissenting voices within the Federal Reserve are getting stronger and if other members of the committee who previously backed Decembers rate increase now appear to be regretting their decision.

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 18.02.2016


Yesterday, the Unite States, Federal Reserve published the minutes of January’s interest rate decision.

It was expected that the FOMC would take into account the events since the December interest rate rise and this was what the message the markets received.

The FOMC minutes, on the whole, gave us no surprises with the transcripts being more or less in line with last week’s testimony by the Fed chairwoman Janet Yellen to the House Financial Services Committee.

Fed Officials saw the events since December have increased the Downside risk.  The inflation outlook remained uncertain and external factors are a continued source of concern with the confusing situation in China hindering the FOMC’s policy decision making.

Furthermore, the FOMC Expect inflation to be lower for a long time due to the depressed price of crude oil. The FOMC was of the opinion that oil and an improvement in the US economy could help bring inflation back to target but was not sure how long the downside risks will last for.

The strength of the US Dollar was discussed and according to the minutes with concerns that the Green Backs inflated value would hinder a recovery in the manufacturing sector.

Of all the concerns the FOMC highlighted the high volatility in the financial markets as the biggest issue and could lead to an amplification of the downside risks.

The Federal Reserved based the December increase on data that indicated that the job market is strong and that the expectation that inflation will increase.

The landscape since the December rate hike has changed dramatically. What is certain is that the FOMC would not have moved to increase interest rates in December if these events had happened in November.

The minutes portrayed an FOMC that is not only data dependent but also unsure of the trend of the data.

This leads us nicely to the forecasts made by the Federal Reserve which according to their now discredited dot plot predicted that there will be four interest rate increases in 2016.  Although the FOMC have not admitted defeat, the dot plot is no longer being mentioned and the idea that the FOMC will abide by their prediction has been priced out by the market.

As if history is about to repeat itself and very much like the back end of 2015 the market has increased the odd of a December increase.

Such a move will only happen if the data fits.

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 19.02.2016


This morning, the British Prime Minister, Mr David Cameron will hold intensive meetings with other European Union leaders.

The discussions have been portrayed as a high-stakes meeting which will define not only Britain’s relationship with the European Union but also the success or failure of the whole European project.

Mr Cameron has to return from the meetings with an agreement that he can be presented to the right of the Conservative Party and also to a British public that is becoming increasingly dissolution by the European Union.

The British Prime Minister has focussed on two main areas which he feels concessions can be extracted from the UK’s European partners.

These being the explosive subject of migrant welfare and the protection of the City of London’s dominance as a global centre for finance.

The whole European Union Migrant issues is a very popular story with the British tabloid press. However, in reality, the cost to the British taxpayer is negligible. Migration from countries like Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia have benefited the country as young and enthusiastic new citizens have integrated into the fabric of the country and have contributed to the economy.

Mr Cameron, however, wants concessions which will appease Conservative voters who have been enticed the message that is being delivered from UKIP that anything and everything European is bad for Britain.

A deal on migration will probably be fudged through but this will be much to the annoyance of Eastern European leaders who will argue that a deal to limit welfare payments to their former citizens will go against the ethos of the European Union’s project.

On the question of over regulation of the City of London’s financial institutions, there does need to be a review of the current legislation so as to ensure it is fit for purpose. However, it has only been eight years since we had a financial meltdown that was caused in part by a lack of regulation. Therefore, it is difficult to see the British Prime Minister getting his own way and to a degree, we should be thankful that the big financial institutions are not allowed to do as they please.

London’s role as a global financial centre will only grow over the coming years. Attempts by Paris and Frankfurt to rest the crown from the City have failed due to London’s attractive cocktail of skilled labour and lifestyle choices. London will survive an exit from the European Union but Frankfurt and Paris will once more try to challenge the old lady’s preeminent position.

The European Union and Britain need each other. The UK and the Union are massive trading partners and their economies and financial systems are just too integrated for a Brexit to even be contemplated.

The discussion about Brexit needs to be expanded as there is a need for an agenda to be put together which looks at reforming the European Union. It is hoped that today’s discussions are just the beginning of a thorough and comprehensive EU-wide reform process.

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 23.02.2016






This morning 9:00 AM London time Ifo Institute for Economic Research will release the German Ifo Business Climate numbers.

This report is released on a monthly basis and some three weeks into the current month.

The Ifo is a survey of current and future business sentiment with respondents also requested to rate their expectation six months forward from the survey date.

Due to the size and breadth of this report, the result of this survey is highly respected. This is because some 7000 business across Germany which are active in diverse sectors from manufacturing, construction, wholesale and retail are requested to respond.

The German Ifo Business Climate Survey is a leading indicator of the economic health of the country. As businesses can quickly recognize and adapt to the constantly changing market environment, this survey has proven to be a timely leading indicator to possible future economic activity.

Germany is the 4th largest economy in the world and by far the biggest and the most dominant within the European Union. This makes what happens in Germany very important. The release of the German Ifo can affect economic expectations and values of financial instruments not only in Germany but throughout the European Union.

The Ifo furthermore can have a dramatic effect on the Euro and the Euro crosses. Market volatility around the time of the Ifo release can potentially increase.

The forecasts for this month release are projecting the slight decrease to 107.0, as compared to the previous number of 107.3.

A result that is higher than expected could potentially have a positive effect on the Euro currency whereas an actual release that is lower than expected could see the single currency come under pressure.

The reason for this is an optimistic business outlook can precede an increase in business activity and economic growth whereas a pessimistic business outlook could indicate a future contraction in business activity and possible stagnation or drop off of economic growth.

As economic expansion is seen as being inflationary and economic contraction being deflationary the European Central Bank, (ECB) may step in an increase or decrease interest rates so as to ensure that the influential and dominant German economy does not grow or contract too quickly.

MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 25.02.2016






The British Prime Minister David Cameron is prepared to engage the Bank of England in order to keep Britain in the European Union. According to his speech on Tuesday, the policymakers “will make sure that the Treasury and the Bank of England and other authoritative organisations set out the facts, set out the figures so people can make a judgment.”

In the meantime, the pound continues to weaken against its major counterparts, with the GBPUSD hitting a new seven-year low yesterday afternoon and trading below 1.3900 marks.

Mark Carney, the BoE Governor, is ready to loosen the monetary policy, saying that the Bank is open to the interest rate cuts and extending a bond-buying programme if required. Even though the slowdown in the global economy has not yet significantly affected the UK growth. He also emphasized his view that the local interest rates will be unlikely to be raised from the record low of 0.5% over the next three years.

Second Estimate UK GDP data release will open this morning at 9:30 am London time. The change in the inflation-adjusted value of all goods and services within the country is expected to remain unaltered from the last quarter at 0.5%. Provided the release will not show significant deviations from the forecast, this event is unlikely to significantly affect the British Pound.
