EUR/USD sell-off accelerates (blimey my spelling just gets worse)

We’re down at 1.2973.  Euro bulls in retreat having run into a veritable cornucopia of sovereign selling interest.

Earlier this morning heard talk of buy orders down at 1.2950/70 with stops below there. Will they be enough to hold the line. We’re about to find out.

    Germany’s SAP aquisition of Sybase worth 5.8 bio USD in cash

    doubt its something China or SNB are interested in, but it could add to it, SNB are likely to be dumping euros they have accumalated while intervening in eurchf, and China not sure maybe protecting options, or simply trying to keep the Euro stable, rushing up is probabily no better then rushing down.

    i’d hazard a guess asian sovereign was either bank of korea of mas (monetary authority of singapore) both apparently having bought dollars vs their own currencies overnight which they’d want to diversify out of, at least partly)
