ECB Hawkish Tone Keep Euro Moving Higher Posted: 05 Mar 2011 02:16 AM PST The main event in the currency markets this week was the statement issued by the ECB, alerting markets participants that inflation was moving up at an unacceptable rate, and the ECB was not going to sit on the sidelines waiting for growth to gain traction before it began to fight inflation. European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet signaled that the central bank could raise interest rates next month for the first time since the financial crisis in 2008. Mr. Trichet warned that risks … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Oil Prices Surge To New 2 Year Highs Posted: 05 Mar 2011 02:15 AM PST Currency market participants were focusing on the implication of ECB's Trichet comments yesterday. The reference to "strong vigilance" and explicit refusal to indicate that "rates are appropriate" are understood as powerful signals of the ECB's intent to raise rates as early as next month. Today, the Swiss franc pushed back from a two-week low against the euro and rose against the dollar after Swiss National Bank Vice-Chairman Thomas Jordan said low interest rates were not … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Forex Forecast For The Week Of March 7, 2011 Posted: 05 Mar 2011 02:13 AM PST   EUR/USD   The EUR/USD enjoyed a massively bullish candle this past week, and has stopped just at the 1.40 handle. This area has served as a support and resistance area historically, and appears ready to do so again. The bullish bar broke through all hints of resistance at the 1.38 level and appears to be primed for a small pullback, followed by a run all the way to 1.45 and 1.50 before it's all said and done. Of particular interest will be the ECB's statement after April's … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

Forex Forecast For March 7th, 2011 Posted: 05 Mar 2011 02:10 AM PST   EUR/USD   Looking at the EUR/USD daily chart, you can see that we reached our projected 1.40 mark on better than expected employment numbers this past Friday. Once the pair broke above the 1.38 mark, we suggested that 1.40 would be the next target. However, there is a bit of resistance at the 1.40 level, and a pullback is certainly possible. Any pullback should find support at the 1.38 mark, as it was heavy resistance before. Any bullish bar at that level would suggest that we are … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates

The February Employment Report Was Good News Posted: 04 Mar 2011 06:56 PM PST Even though buy on the rumor and sell on the news is standard, I think the market is once again under-rating the good news in the February employment report.  The headline employment growth number of plus 192,000 was not bad, especially when you add in the additions of 58, 000 from December and January. However, the household employment increase of 250,000 jobs was very good, especially after the fantastic increase of 589,000 in January. Household employment expansion has produced a … [visit site to read more] or compare Best Credit Cards and Best CD Rates
