The Euro and other currencies are strong against the USD as favoured
Unfortunately we took profits on some of our Yen trades, but fortunately we remain short the US dollar. The Yen volatility is interesting, but still feel the G7 has been as forceful as it can with Japan having to agree to the wording in the final statement. The fact that the G7 said markets should recognize the good fundamentals of Japan, tells us that behind closed doors other members are unhappy with Yen weakness. Expect Yen to remain volatile and if it continues to break lower against the USD we will sell it, but the preferred scenario remains an eventual capitulation of USD/YEN in line with broad based USD weakness. The Euro and other currencies are strong against the USD as favoured and expect more. The AUD and NZD, everyone is looking for a correction waiting to buy on dips but it is just not happening. Favour a sharp up move in these currencies over next 24 hours as long as immediate support in AUD at .8320 holds.
