- Thursday, June 6, 12:28 PM Unusual given past patterns, the dollar (UUP -1.7%) is being unloaded across the board and in size along with stocks selling off. The euro (FXE +1.5%), cable (FXB +1.8%), the yen (FXY +3.1%), the aussie (FXA +1.1%), and the loonie (FXC +1.3%) are all sharply higher vs. the greenback. The Dow's now off 86 points. 14 Comments [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Thursday, June 6, 10:55 AM Europe turns decidedly lower, the Stoxx 50 now off 0.8% following Mario Draghi's press conference, with markets perhaps deciding to punish his somewhat smug performance: "OMT has probably been the most successful monetary measure for some time." - a curious statement considering it doesn't yet exist and Draghi admitted the legal paperwork isn't complete. Leading to the downside is Italy (EWI), tumbling 2.3%. The euro (FXE) continues to rise, +0.7% to $1.3182. 1 Comment [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Thursday, June 6, 8:51 AM Draghi press conference: The bank cuts its 2013 GDP growth forecast to -0.6% from -0.5%, but hikes its 2014 estimate to 1.1% from 1%. The ECB is "technically ready" to use negative rates, but sees no reason to act right now. The euro (FXE) shoots higher, now +0.6% at $1.3166. Comment! [Global & FX, Breaking News]
- Thursday, June 6, 7:56 AM The euro (FXE) remains well-bid following the ECB standing pat. Few had expected a move given the bank had cut rates 25 bps to 0.5% just one month ago. The common currency is up 0.2% at $1.3117, its highest level in a month. Mario Draghi's press conference begins at 8:30 ET. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, May 24, 4:11 AM German Ifo index of business confidence rises to 105.7 in May from 104.4 in April and tops estimates of 104.5. Current conditions 110 vs 107.3 and 107.2. Expectations static at 101.6, as forecast. The euro (FXE) spikes vs the dollar is now +0.1% after being lower, while the DAX is +0.1%. Comment! [Global & FX, Top Stories]
- Friday, May 17, 9:38 AM Did the Fed tighten while we were getting a cup of coffee? The greenback is soaring against all other currencies, with the dollar bull ETF (UUP) gaining 0.6% - an unusually large move for that vehicle. Strength against the yen (FXY -0.3%) and the aussie (FXA -0.9%) are givens of late, but the greenback is up about 1% vs. both the loonie (FXC) and the swissie (FXF), and about 0.6% vs. the euro (FXE) and cable (FXB). Getting hit are Treasurys (TLT -0.5%), the dollar bear ETF (UDN -0.6%) and of course, gold (GLD -0.7%). 5 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, May 17, 8:37 AM First the move then the news? The euro takes a quick tumble, dropping about 50 pips to $1.2821. There's not much in the news other than the recycling of an old story Germany's Constitutional Court might reject the ECB's OMT plan, and chatter the central bank has been calling around to float the idea of negative deposit rates. FXE -0.5% premarket. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Thursday, May 16, 11:34 AM The euro tumbles about 30 pips as European Industry Commissioner Antonio Tajani tabs the currency as too strong and calls on the ECB to manage its level to better-help exports. FXE now up just 0.1%. Comment! [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 15, 8:24 AM The euro (FXE) falls 0.5% against the dollar after reports indicate France slipped into recession during Q1 and data out of Germany shows the eurozone's largest economy narrowly avoided a similar fate. Meanwhile, sterling (FXB) retraces earlier gains (posted after BOE's Mervyn King sounded an upbeat tone on the prospects for the U.K. economy) to trade flat against the greenback. Comment!
- Monday, May 13, 6:20 AM The ECB's Ignazio Visco revives the discussion of negative deposit rates after Ewald Nowotny sought to dismiss the notion as largely out of the realm of near-term possibilities earlier this month. Visco tells CNBC that the ECB is "technically prepared" to institute the policy and goes so far as to say that in his opinion, "the economy is now capable of taking it on board." In the wake of the ECB's most recent policy meeting, Mario Draghi said he has an "open mind" to the policy, a statement which sent the euro (FXE) tumbling. Comment!
- Thursday, May 9, 3:06 PM The dollar (UUP +1%) is soaring across the board (not just against the yen, where it's now spiked through ¥100 to ¥100.56). The greenback is threatening parity vs. the aussie (FXA -1.1%) for the first time since last summer, and the euro (FXE -1.1%), swissie (FXF -1.4%), loonie (FXC -0.5%), and pound (FXB -0.6%) are seeing sizable declines as well. Commodities? Red. Gold (GLD -1.1%), Silver (SLV -1.2%), Oil (USO -0.6%), Copper (JJC -0.8%). 5 Comments [Global & FX, Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, May 6, 10:44 AM The euro (FXE -0.4%) tumbles as Mario Draghi - in prepared remarks in Rome - says the ECB is ready to act again in coming weeks. The comments are not a whole lot different than what he said post-rate cut at his press conference last Thursday. 1 Comment [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Thursday, May 2, 9:16 AM It tells you all you need to know, says Danske's Owen Callan, that the ECB would consider negative deposit rates rather than buying government paper. Draghi saying he has an "open mind" on negative deposit rates looks to be what sent the euro tumbling about 100 pips on one 5-minute bar. FXE -0.6% premarket. 5 Comments [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Thursday, May 2, 9:07 AM "There was a very strong prevailing consensus towards an interest rate cut," says Draghi, now taking questions at his press conference. The answer suggests the vote wasn't unanimous (Weidmann?). As Draghi points to higher stock prices as one measure of the ECB's success, markets turn tail, the Stoxx 50 (FEZ) now off 0.5%, and the euro (FXE) really tumbling, -0.8%. 1 Comment [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Thursday, May 2, 8:50 AM Inflation risks are "broadly balanced" and economic risks remain "on the downside," says ECB chief Mario Draghi at his press conference (following the rate cut this morning). Draghi ends his introductory remarks by throwing the baton to EU governments, saying they must continue with fiscal consolidation and target competitiveness. Future rate cuts, however, are not ruled out. European stocks (FEZ) remain moderately higher, the euro (FXE) about flat. 1 Comment [Breaking News, Global & FX]
- Thursday, May 2, 7:46 AM The ECB cuts its benchmark rate 25 basis points to 0.5%, a move expected my most, but not all economist forecasts. The euro (FXE) is about flat on the session. Comment! [Global & FX, Breaking News, Top Stories]
