Hello, I’m Sinead MacLaughlin and these are the Movers and Shakers for Friday, the 13th of November.
Euro/Dollar recovered after the first slide, but it’s point 66% in the red at 3 PM GMT, posting the day’s biggest move as it dropped once again.
US retail sales and PPI both disappointed, but Greenback is the most bullish of the 8 majors on the advancers and decliners table.
UK construction output contracted, but Sterling is up against most of the rivals, followed closely by the Yen.
Japanese industrial production was upwardly revised, but tertiary industry activity disappointed.
Safe-haven is followed by the commodity currency trio – Australian, New Zealand and Canadian Dollars.
Swiss Franc is near the bottom of the table and up only from the Single currency, which wraps up the advancers and decliners table as Flash Euro Zone GDP was weaker than expected.
Let’s move on to longer terms, where Sterling/Canada takes the top spot on the weekly bulls chart with a rise of 1.41%. Euro/Sterling is the top decliner and the pair has lost slightly more than 1%.
Dollar/Swissie has appreciated the most over a month and it’s 5.45% in the green. Euro/Dollar leads the bearish section and the pair is down by more than 6%.
This is how the 8 majors line up at 3 PM GMT on this week’s last trading day. Have a nice weekend and tune in on Monday for more. Goodbye.
