๏ Chinese GDP Sets Table For Improved
Risk Amid CPI Data From EZ, UK, US
๏ Aussie Holds Ground as Chinese GDP
Fears Fail to Materialize; Yen Weakest
ASIA/EUROPE FOREX NEWS WRAP
The Dow Jones FXCM Dollar Index (Ticker: USDOLLAR) has edged higher to
start the week and has nearly taken back all of its losses since Wednesday,
when Fed Chairman Bernanke deployed dovish rhetoric as a way of pushing
US Treasury yields lower once more. With the US economy showing signs of
improvement in key sectors, market participants will be watching todayโs US
Advance Retail Sales report for June for confirmation that gains in jobs and
housing in recent weeks are reflective of improved consumption trends.
The data today is one of two key prints out of the United States before
Wednesdayโs fireworks, when Fed Chairman Bernanke takes to Capitol Hill
for his likely last semiannual testimony in front of Congress. While todayโs
consumption report should show a stronger US economy, tomorrowโs
inflation data โ the other key report โ suggests that the US economy isnโt
growing fast enough to warrant a withdrawal of stimulus.
As the market tries to peg where Chairman Bernankeโs bias will lay on
Wednesday, risk appetite has seen a nice boost to start the week after the
2Qโ13 Chinese GDP report. Although the headline missed expectations, the
annualized print of +7.5% came short of the +7.7% consensus forecast (and
+7.7% model estimate), there had been growing chatter the past week or two
that a print near +7.0% should be expected; needless to say, the report can be
viewed as somewhat positive in that regard. Accordingly, the Australian
Dollar, facing record short positioning among speculative traders, is seeing
relief as well; and the AUDJPY is outperforming as a result.

Taking a look at European credit, peripheral yields are mostly mixed but
Portugal continues to underperform and lead. The Italian 2-year note yield
has decreased to 1.710% (-0.4-bps) while the Spanish 2-year note yield has
increased to 2.040% (-1.7-bps). Similarly, the Italian 10-year note yield has
increased to 4.481% (+0.1-bps) while the Spanish 10-year note yield has
decreased to 4.756% (-0.9-bps); higher yields imply lower prices.
