AUDUSD is testing its double top at 1,0163, imho. Likely failure here should mark a turnaround point for the risk assets at large.

Let's watch Chinese PMI tonight.

How come? Elliot-ists say the ending diagonal is almost done (matter of several weeks). No?

This is disturbing for EUR shorts now. Yield differentials are IN FAVOUR of EUR, hence the back up.

Chinese CPI is reported leaked at 5.1%

Ashraf, what do you think?

Ashraf, thank you for the video. You sound very convinced.

Now, what if we look one or two months forward, where the good patch in the US data may end. What would the reaction be to the renewed US double dip concerns?

Spain October Retail Sales Drop 2.8%

FYI:

11/29/2010 3:53:20 AM Spanish retail sales dropped at marked pace in October as the govenment's recent VAT rate hike continued to impact sales.

Statistical office INE said retail sales fell 2.8% compared to a year ago, following the 3% fall in September. On a calendar adjusted basis, sales were down a more modest 1%.

The fall suggests the government's July hiking of the VAT rate to 18% from 16% is continuing to curb spending. The government rose the sales tax to cut its substantial budget deficit and bring it under E.U. limits...

Catnip, russian mafia holders of irish bonds just checked up with me wondering what the current relationship beween the euro puts / dollar calls is (3 month 25 delta, to be sure). Please help (you seem to be knowledgeable about this stuff) or I am in trouble.

Seriously, is there any way one can look this stuff up on the internet (bloomberg?)?

Ashraf,

Rumor has it that the bank that does a god's work in the markets is expecting this Tuesday of BOK and PBOC to hike further 0,25%. Have you heard anything to that effect?

With the euro meetings related to the Irish story tomorrow seems to be the big day
