Chinese stimulus, further central bank action and roaring Silver
|Important news for the day
Chinese equities
Equities in Asia continued to rise for the day. The stimulus by the PBOC seemingly caused investor demand to be restored. The Central bank had reduced their loans for 1- year loans. Furthermore also other Asian markets like Hong Kong and Japan went to the upside, indicating the positive demand might be here to stay for now. Also prices for iron ore were rising as the economic demand seems positive.
Market talk
The Dollar had extended its losses causing the Dollar index to weaken below the technical support level. This might cause the Greenback to weaken further against other currencies. As also oil prices weaken slightly alongside the Silver market the economic outlook might paint a mixed picture. Stock markets currently reflect this, as most US and European indices remain in a cautious sideways pattern. The Asian market remains influenced by the Chinese stimulus as it seems. The CAD might gear up steam based on the monthly chart against the EUR. And the interest rate decision tomorrow from Switzerland could cause the USDCHF to rise, should the SNB decrease rates.
