Nils:

OK, I'll say...

...learned that things aren't so bad in the Eurozone


to be honest, fundamentally I do not see any reason to celebrate, they just printed a bunch of bonds and made a deal with china (it's not the first time they got screwed, it's their karma), the Greeks got a bunch of ultimatums (let's see how they deal with it in parliament, I can already see the PM leaving) .... what have they done besides making optimistic statements? they've been meeting for six months, looking like a potshake session .

 
solar:



I'm not happy, by the way... I'm not happy... I've got a hang-up... and I do, however, agree with you on what you wrote above

 
There is a war between the dollar and the euro to see who devalues their currency more against the other )))) Both benefit from low rates to stimulate the economy and exports )))) Maybe I'm being silly, but whatever ))))

I think so ... Sometimes they need one thing, then lobby for one thing, then another ... that's the way it is every day

12:03 *DJ Greek government coalition talks on austerity measures ended, no agreement reached

NEW YORK, Feb. 9 (ANI) - Thursday. /Dow Jones/. The euro traded almost flat on Wednesday, staying slightly below its 8-week high. Markets had been waiting for news on Greece's efforts to reach a political consensus on a debt and financial aid agreement needed to avert a default.

Government and opposition party representatives have been working to resolve differences over economic and fiscal reforms demanded by international creditors. But gaining political support has been difficult, and weeks of round-the-clock negotiations between Greece and private bondholders, who have been asked for significant debt relief, also have yet to culminate in an agreement.

The euro/US dollar pair jumped to its highest level since December 12 at 1.3289 following the news that the European Central Bank /ECB/ may include Greek bonds in its holdings in the debt restructuring. Sources familiar with the matter told the Wall Street Journal. The ECB has been buying Greek debt for much of last year in a bid to offset selling pressure that has driven up borrowing costs.

However, there is confusion on the market as to whether Greece's sharply divergent politicians will be able to resolve their differences, and this has prompted investors to stay out of the bidding. Greece must reach an agreement on a bond exchange by the start of next month. Failure to do so would risk a default, which could trigger a spread of debt problems across the eurozone and possibly force Greece to leave the currency bloc.

"The market is missing clear signals regarding Greece," said Richard Franulovich, senior currency strategist-analyst at Westpac Banking Corp. in New York.

Final acceptance of the agreement "is increasingly factored into quotations and, at the very least, these /negotiations/ should limit the decline of the euro," says Franulovich. As many investors are still short the euro, a reduction could push the euro up towards $1.35 "before we reassess what's going on", he adds.

The yen has risen over the past few months, supported by a massive investor flight to safe haven assets amid Europe's debt crisis and soft US monetary policy. However, traders stayed away from the Japanese currency after the Bank of Japan revealed on Tuesday that it had hidden yen sales in November, just after the intervention was announced publicly.

The news made the market wary of further action by the central bank to weaken the yen.

"Japanese officials have warned in recent weeks about the strength of the yen against the dollar and euro," Simon Derrick, senior strategist-analyst at Bank of New York-Mellon, wrote in a research note. - Therefore, we cannot rule out the possibility that operations could also be directed against the euro in the coming weeks. He who is forewarned is forearmed."

♪ on February 9 ♪ /Dow Jones/. The euro/U.S. dollar pair fell sharply after news that Greek government coalition talks on austerity measures ended inconclusively. The pair fell to 1.3215 from an earlier high of 1.3262 and was trading at 1.3235 at the time of writing. "The general consensus is that negotiations are moving towards resolution" but the market remains exposed to headline risk, says a senior trader at a major Japanese bank, adding that the pair's fall could be limited. Greece's party leaders appear to have disagreed on pension cuts. Meanwhile, a Socialist party spokesman said the politicians could meet later. Trader expects the pair to trade in a range of 1.3150-1.3350 on Thursday
