Good morning/afternoon/evening/night! How is the world of currency trading treating you so far today? Making some serious pips in the wonderfully volatile market that we have been experiencing? Cool! Now let’s get to the news, shall we?
Well, first, let’s get some wordage from Mishkin and Paulson, who both had podium pieces earlier today:
FOMC Governor Frederic Mishkin, has uttered words about risks in inflation expectations, and that the Federal Reserve wants to curb any possible expectation that might arise.
Meanwhile, Us Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, had squawked about the state of the economy, and that the end of housing prices falling are not coming to an end anytime soon. For those foreclosure investors and real estate speculators, you are still going to see some bargains in the coming months. To homesellers, I only hope the best of luck as the real estate market is still in for the hellride of it’s life.
So, let’s skip the horror stories and let’s get on to the news stories for the asian market!
Australia breaks the news silence tonight with the Services purchasing Manager’s Index tonight. This is an indicator of Buying agents and purchasing managers of services companies and buying raw materials to augment the services that they provide to the public and private sectors.
Also Australia is going to release a Trade balance number as well. This will be the indicator of which Australia is exporting more or less than what they are importing. If you ever heard of “trade deficit”, that means that the country is exporting less than they are importing.
New Zealand then takes the news end of things, and the ANZ, a leading banking authority in New Zealand, will release a commodity price index, which will cover any fluctutations in the price of several major commodities. This will indicate if there is any level of inflation.
That is all for today’s Asian Market Open, See you at the European Market Open! TRADE ON!!!
