  2. British Pound and Euro head for 1 month low against US Dollar The once-lacking volatility among major currencies is back again, and this time it is the remarkably steady US Dollar which is creating a gulf between itself and some of its peers on the other side of the Atlantic. This morning, the US Dollar rose in value against the Euro and British Pound so significantly that it plunged the Euro and British Pound to sudden lows, with the Euro hitting its lowest value against the US Dollar in over a month, and the British Pound hitting its second lowest point in over a month against the greenback. The sudden upsurge of the US Dollar against these two majors is quite fascinating, and demonstrates the US Dollar's continued strength despite the precarious economic and geopolitical circumstances that surround the United States. This morning, the British Pound headed down to 1.20 against the US Dollar, and the Euro to 1.07. The United States has been faced with similar economic challenges to those faced by Europe over the past two years, and in some cases has had greater difficulties such as higher inflation this time last year, before it subsided in November 2022, and even more stringent lockdowns and involvement in geopolitical instability than some parts of Europe. Despite this, the US Dollar has held up extremely well, and now that the inflation level in the United States is back to 6.5% and has been for some momnths compared to double figures in the United Kingdom and Europe ranging from 10% in the western European nations to over 25% in some of the Baltic states which are European Union members, things continue to improve for the Dollar. It may appear that the lower US inflation figure compared to that of Europe and that of the US a few months ago is a good thing, but this has caused higher costs for large corporations in the United States who have to continue to pay more for supplier contracts or to operate their subsidiaries in Europe, leading to lower revenue figures for many. The US involvement in the ongoing Ukraine war is also a huge cost, and potentially destabilizing factor, however despite having spent over $100 billion on it, plus pledging to escalate the situation by sending more munitions and last week's revelation by an American investigative journalist that the Nord Stream explosion which occurred in November 2022 was allegedly the work of the US armed forces, the Dollar continues to grow. Whether its overall stability compared to European and British currency is artificial, or whether the US economy is genuinuely less encumbered than that of mainland Europe or Britain is debatable - however this level of volatility in the light of such unusual times is of great interest within the currency markets.

  8. Bitcoin values decline as major exchange halts Dollar transfers The now rather infamous 'crypto winter' which referred to the latter part of 2022 had appeared to show some signs of subsiding recently. After many months of relatively low and somewhat stagnant cryptocurrency values, some of the more popular digital currencies had begun to make a little bit of headway over the first few weeks of 2023. By the end of January 2022, it looked as though the value of many of the most popular cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin and Ethereum, were emerging from the doldrums and beginning to make a resurgence in value, with Bitcoin hitting $23,783 on January 30. Of course, this is a far cry from the $60,000 ballpark which Bitcoin reached in 2021, but considering the under-$20,000 range it has been languishing in for a few months, it is a considerable upturn in fortunes. However, since yesterday, Bitcoin has been declining in value once again, going from $23,380 during the night (1.15am UK time) to $23,159 by 11.00am UK time today. That is a 66 point decrease in value, 0.28% in percentage terms, which may not seem a large movement, but it does represent a downturn of considerable monetary value, putting an end to the climbing values. It could be that accessibility may be a factor, as Binance, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges announced yesterday that will suspend U.S. dollar withdrawals and deposits for international customers beginning today, resulting in a significant capital outflow from Binance and Bitcoin withdrawal figures going up overall. Binance stated that it remained 'net positive' after the withdrawal run took place, however such a rush to divest from an exchange in one go means that actual trading volume in Bitcoin would likely be affected, which may also be contributing to the lower values today. Binance has stated that this suspension of US dollar transactions is temporary, but of course any action which causes a mass withdrawal of assets from a trading venue is always likely to affect overall trading volume. So, whilst overall Bitcoin is being viewed through a bullish lens, largely because of the US Federal Reserve bank's latest less aggressive rate hike of just 25 basis points, which helped Bitcoin to maintain its rising trajectory and outperform as compared to other asset classes, any action affecting trading in which a mass withdrawal takes place is likely to have some effect. It may be temporary, and if so, volatility is definitely on its way back to the crypto market. VIEW FULL ANALYSIS VISIT - FXOpen Blog...

However, the pair failed to surpass the 1.1035 level. A high was formed near 1.1033 and the pair started a fresh decline. There was a clear move below the 1.0950 support zone and the 50 hourly simple moving average. EUR/USD Hourly Chart The pair even broke the 1.0850 support level.

An upside break above 1.0800 could set the pace for another increase. In the stated case, the pair might visit 1.0850 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.1033 swing high to 1.0670 low. Any more gains might send the pair towards 1.0920. If not, it could continue to move down. An initial support on the downside is near the 1.0700 level. The first major support is near the 1.0670 level. The main support sits near the 1.0650 zone, below which the pair could start a major decline. In the stated case, the pair might dive towards the 1.0520 support zone.

  14. After a long decline, Tesla leads the charge as EV stocks are back in vogue The past few months have demonstrated that, like most extremely high profile phases and fads, the euphoria surrounding the world’s sudden focus on electric vehicles after over 120 years of celebrating the internal combustion engine faded, and with that, down went the massively inflated stock prices of some of their manufacturers. Tesla was the disrupting influence that suddenly appeared from Silicon Valley just over 10 years ago with a roadster based on the Lotus Elise which very few people can remember, before suddenly heading onto the streets with its first ever sedan, the Model S, which in 2014 took the world by storm largely because it looked and drove like a normal luxury car, but was fully electric. Before this, there had been some electric car prototypes by mainstream car manufacturers, and one or two that had gone to market, only to be met with derision and criticism, and were largely viewed as extremely unfashionable examples of social awkwardness on wheels. Tesla changed all that, and since then has changed quite a lot of other aspects of how technology firms do business - it is the first publicly listed company to become a cryptocurrency whale for example, and did so without any concern or objection from shareholders or the exchange it is listed on. This year, however, the extreme faddishness which has surrounded electric vehicles to the extent that almost every mainstream manufacturer has spent the past three years rallying to introduce new electric models when they had no intention of doing so prior to the Tesla era, and marketing campaigns everywhere from the internet to billboards are depicting the very latest electric car from almost everywhere across the globe, has faded. Tesla stock, listed on the NASDAQ exchange, has been depreciating like a 1970s Lancia after a winter in Manchester, and some newcomers to the electric vehicle market, set up as new companies over the past few years and which only produce electric vehicles, have been following the declining trend that Tesla has experienced. Perhaps it was inevitable, as some of them, total newcomers to the automotive industry and without a credible product, had raised billions of dollars via Special Purchase Acquisition Company (SPAC) listings on NASDAQ, meaning that they could bypass the usual levels of due diligence required to list on a public exchange and simply raise billions without, in some cases, even delivering a single product. In this arena of newcomers to the auto industry, Tesla remains the stalwart and its stock has started to rebound. Tesla stock was up a considerable 4.78% at the close of the US trading session yesterday, and some of the less well known electric vehicle producers are also experiencing a resurgence in values. Currently analysts are looking at Rivian, the electric truck manufacturer, North American luxury electric car brand Lucid and Polestar, Volvo’s performance electric car division. Tesla stock has been rising from the doldrums over the past month, and is a remarkable 62% higher than it was 30 days ago, showing that whilst the world has got used to Tesla models now that they are no longer a novelty and are utterly ubiquitous, and even have been subject to some degree of criticism for being bland or less of a quality product than the established luxury brands, there is still a degree of interest in Elon Musk and his forward thinking ideology. Unlike other car brands which tend to toe the conservative line, Tesla is the product of Elon Musk, who is well known for edge-of-the-seat commercial decisions and for the public not knowing what he will do next!

  16. British Pound hits the deck as Western markets raise interest rates At the end of last week, the much anticipated action from many central banks across the Western world took place, and interest rates were increased once again. There were many forecasts during the advent of the interest rate rises which largely focused on the United States Federal Reserve Bank's anticipated rate rise, however the European Central Bank and the Bank of England both conducted interest rate increases at the same time. In the United Kingdom, which has been reported to have the least investable provincial economy in Europe, placing it alongside Greece, the effect has been the greatest. The British Pound dipped to its lowest point against the US Dollar in over a month, and is currently trading at 1.21. This has ended the steady climb in the value of the British Pound which has taken place over the past few weeks, as it hauled itself out of oblivion after many months of declining values during the summer of 2022, ending in November. Interest rates in the United Kingdom were raised to 4%, which is not far off the 5% that was predicted by many investment banks in the summer of 2022, whose analysts predicted that by January 2023, interest in the UK would rise to approximately 5% which appeared a grave prediction given their very low position back then which was under 2%. Now, at 4%, there is grave concern, and even before this level had been reached, mortgage lenders across the United Kingdom had been removing mortgage products from the market to avoid borrowers being unable to service monthly payments should the interest rates increase to these levels. Whilst it may sound alarmist, 4% is nowhere near the 15% interest that was demanded back in 1991 and 1992, but back then borrowing was quite low, and even though that period was considered to be very much a period of austerity, it was recoverable quite quickly. Today, borrowing is at a much higher level and mortgage lenders are often exposed to individual borrowings exceeding £500,000 whereas in the early 1990s it was between £10,000 and £20,000. At the end of the 1990s, the average property price rocketed and more than doubled in just one year, and has been rising ever since, but salaries have not kept up with this, hence greater exposure to debt. When interest rates were less than 1%, this was not a problem, but now with increasing rates, the cash strapped are finding themselves lumbered with unserviceable repayments. London remains a global powerhouse and has its own economy which is still flourishing as it is an influential capital which conducts global business at top level, however the rest of the country is a very different matter. Just two weeks ago, the Institute for Public Policy Research, a well recognized think tank, noted that outside London, especially the north of England is fiscally barren. The report stated that only Geece has lower levels of public and private investment in a ranking of Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries, and that if it was not for London, the UK would be alongside Greece in its economic performance. A very grave set of statistics, which perhaps show why the British Pound showed the biggest decline of any major currency over the past few days despite all of Europe and the United States also having conducted interest rate rises.

  23. USD down slightly ahead of Fed announcement as interest rates look toward 15 year high Today, the Federal Reserve bank in the United States is set to make an announcement regarding another potential interest rate increase, which would represent the latest in a long string of such actions over the past year. Should this proceed, it may dampen the enthusiasm of investors, and therefore have a negative effect on the US economy overall. However, the US Dollar has remained strong, and when looking at this morning's chart analysts across the world are predicting that the interest rates in the United States may once again be increased. As a result, it would perhaps be very understandable to consider the possibility that the US Dollar, which has been has been very strong this year against other major currencies, could perhaps decrease in value rapidly. The reality is quite different and the US Dollar has only made a very slight dip against some of its major peers. The British Pound was up to the high 1.23 range against the US Dollar early this morning during the London trading session. This is because a number of central banks around the world are set to increase interest rates, and during the course of this week it is widely estimated that the combination of central banks in many key nations with developed financial markets economies may increase interest rates to highest levels since the financial crisis, stoking anxiety among some investors that this month’s bond market rally underestimates evidence of persistent inflation. At the end of the 2000s, when the global financial crisis hit and major financial institutions with long heritages began to collapse - notably the high profile and catastrophic demise of Lehman Brothers, and subsequent other disasters such as the bankruptcy of Bear Stearns - the world's oldest investment bank - and nationalization of many large banks such as Barclays, HSBC and Lloyds due to their over-exposure to secured and unsecured credit, as well as the aggressive takeover attempt by Royal Bank of Scotland which resulted in it having to be bailed out by the British taxpayer, the interest rates were at around 5% in the United Kingdom, the Eurozone and the United States. Since then, they have been incredibly low across the 2010s, and only in 2021 did they begin to rise again. It is looking likely that they will be up to the 5% mark again. Of course, it is still a far cry from the 15% interest rates that were commonplace in the United Kingdom and some other key markets during the early 1990s, which is perhaps remarkable considering the geopolitical circumstances of the past three years, but 5% is a massive increment over the less than 1% many consumers have been used to for many years until 2021.
