Without anything of note from Australia and New Zealand all eyes are focused on upcoming China GDP (YoY) . Expectations are for GDP to come in at 7.6% with Industrial Production at 9.8% and Retail sales 13.5%. Given recent rate cut and all news leading up to this release I feel the number could come in closer to 7.0%/7.3 %. Should be a lot of fun if that happens. Market should remain quiet ( how unusual) until then.

Current levels are as follows:

  • EUR:1.2205
  • JPY : 79.32
  • GBP 1.5428
  • CHF: 0.9840
  • CAD: 1.0190
  • AUD: 1.0140
  • NZD: 0.7890

Good luck today and TGIF !
