Gogy, read the explanation about yield curves and how their steepness explains the market's view of interest rates. Chapter 6 of my book has over 10 pages of charts and practical examples on "Rationale of Inverted Yield Curve Implications", and "Effectiveness of Yield Curve Signals Implications".

How do you help yourself with bond rates spreads. If I understand bonds correctly with the yield/price they measure the risk of default and economic strength of the country. Regards

Response to Hamish' question below:

Hamish,
coordinated rate cuts are more likely to be USD-positive because they would suggest the beginning of further easing by the Europeans while US easing may be closer to the end. Yes, the JPY is indeed strengthening. Look how USDJPY is falling. Look how USD is doing badly against JPY but much better against EUR, GBP, AUD etcc. The moves are evident.


Ashraf,
I am perplexed ! If eur,gbp,usd central banks agree to cut rates in a package deal, where does this leave the usd ? Surely down versus eur & gbp ? Gold stocks & aud are crashing. The US economy will surely be in dire straits ? Yet despite yield curves the money still flows to the almighty dollar. Why ? I would of thought that by now the jpy,yen & gold would have spiked to new highs........................Hamish
