EURINR and USDJPY can trade sideways between 88-89/90 and 156-158 respectively for the near term. Pound and EURJPY have risen past 1.24 and 162 again. EURJPY can head towards 164-165, while Pound has limited upside to 1.25-1.26. Aussie looks stable above 0.62 but immediate upside could be capped at 0.6250-0.6300.

The US Treasury yields have risen sharply. The bullish view is intact. There is room for the yields to rise more from here. The German yields have entered their crucial resistance zone. A strong breakout is needed in the coming days to see an extended rise and avoid falling back. Wait and watch. The 10Yr GoI is coming down. While it remains below its resistance, more fall can be seen in the coming days.
The Dow Jones has risen well above 42700 but remains bearish while trading below 43500, with downside targets of 42000-41500. DAX failed to sustain above 20000 and needs a break above 20200 to advance toward 21000. Otherwise, the index may drop to 19500. Nifty closed lower but held above 24000. As long as it sustains above 24000-23800, it retains the potential to rise toward 24500. Nikkei has declined below 39500 and could fall further within the 40000-38000 range, targeting 39000-38500. Shanghai dropped to a low of 3185 before recovering slightly. A rise above 3250 is essential to eliminate downside risks.
