rim; 2005 USDX due to temporary factors but commodities did rise too.
But 2005 was different as there was a clear economic expansion.


Bojan, tough question about CADCHF as far as fundamentals are concerned. One could say CHF may start to lose ground as SNB is set to take advantage of EUR rebound and intervenes. i would say wait for minor retracement in CADHf before resuming uptrend towards 1.10 in medium term.

Ashraf,

I played CAD reatreat with CAD/CHF and strong resistance at 1.0700-ish. I was counting on profit taking and oil retreat at these levels, and job report came as icing on a cake. I read IMT and tweets about CAD views, but my indecision comes from no news for CHF until friday. I closed most of my position on this pair, and I got stuck with seeing 50% chance of CAD continuing upward trajectory (housing # expected to show improvement), and 50% chance of CAD losses towards 1.0400.
I guess my question is can we see CHF strength or weakness next week without any news, bull or bear on CAD/CHF next week ?



Thank You

Callum, basically, if anything, China will do a small revaluation of about 2.0% (as in Jul 2005) which could be interpreted as positive for commodities. But commodity impact depends on whether PBOC will raise rates. so in long run, good for commodities (especially if they allow yuan to appreciate AFTER the 1-off revaluation was case in 2005). But of they reval by 2% and then allow it to rise by no more than 3% for remainder of the year, may not be that great for commodities.
