Forex,... broken neck in European currencies; fwiw, after the rate hike there is no follow through so the 1.32 target for EUR becomes viable. I'll try that. Theres no hope for a US rate cut so people may end up buying (back) the USD.

The Yen carry trades are becoming nervous. There was some power surge in the Yen/Usd which showed traders where the Yen bottom is.
The unlikely winner was the GBP/YEN trade with levels over 240.

3 years after a hedge fund called it, the Euro twin short becomes viable: Short the DAX and short the EUR. Driving force are the interest rates where the Euro Treasuries tank and never look back. At one point when people move more money out of stocks those contracts will bounce. At first it needs to trade as cheap as possible. it is now down 9% from the traded high.

For the currency stocks and bonds do matter. If neither of it sees buyers the currency gets sold.

Funny how a weak eurozone retail sales reading tanked the market.
