AceTraderFx Feb 24: IMF is making huge demand on Greece in the pension reform

Intra-Day Market Moving News and Views EUR/USD

24 Feb 2016 02:30GMT

EUR/USD - .....Earlier Reuters reported that the International Monetary Fund is making a big demand on Greece in the pension reform which required to complete its first bailout review.

Negotiations between the heads of the EU/IMF mission reviewing progress on Greece's pensions overhaul, fiscal targets and the handling of bad loans, took a break earlier this month.

It is unclear when the lenders will return to Athens and whether the latest impasse can be broken.

Greece finance minister Euclid Tsakalotos said that the IMF is pushing them far too much. It's not socially sensitive, and is asking them to do more than they had agreed in the summer.

Under a third bailout of up to 86 billion euros ($95 billion) signed last summer, Greece was asked to cut pension spending by 1 percent of gross domestic product this year. Athens has refused to cut pensions and says it will increase social security contributions instead.

But IMF's director for Europe, Poul Thomsen, has said that Greece will need to implement extra measures worth about 9 billion euros to meet its fiscal targets by 2018 and that the Fund could not see how Athens could do so without major savings on pensions.

Without the lenders' acknowledgement of the reforms, the government cannot start relief talks it needs to show austerity-weary Greeks their sacrifices are paying off.

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK

Update Time: 24 Feb 2016 04:48 GMT

EUR/USD - 1.1010

Although euro is expected to gain respite in Asia following yesterday's intra-day decline from 1.1052 to 1.0990 following release of downbeat German Ifo data and initial consolidation is in store, outlook remains mildly bearish for recent decline from February's 1.1377 peak to pressure price to 1.0950/60.

However, loss of near term downward momentum should prevent steep fall and risk has increased for a much-needed minor correction to take place later today or tomorrow.

On the upside, expect 1.1052 to hold and yield one more fall, only a daily close above 1.1067/71 would signal temporary bottom is finally in place and may bring stronger retracement towards 1.1093.

-at present, hard to achieve 2 pct inflation stably with monetary policy alone

-Japan's economy continues to recover moderately

-Capex, wages are not rising as much as I hoped

-see global economic outlook, market developments as key risks to Japan's economy

-if exports show clear downtrend on weak overseas growth, that may hurt Japan's consumption, output

-tough to push up long-term inflation expectations with BoJ policy alone

-vigilant to various problems that may occur as BoJ buys and holds massive amounts of jgb, which could distort market function
