EUR/USD Rebound On Profit Taking
Sunrise Market Commentary
- Fixed Income: limited profit taking on core bond markets
- Global core bond markets fell prey to some profit taking in a thin, dull trading session. However, given the strength of equities, bond losses were very limited and occurred at the onset of trading. Today, the eco calendar remains thin and the profit taking might go some further in the run-up to tomorrow's informal EU Summit.
- Currencies EUR/USD rebound on profit taking
- The correction in EUR/USD was prolonged, but the euro gains were modest and mostly technical in nature. The UK inflation report is the eye-catcher of the day as it may influence sterling. However, overall trading might again be thin ahead of tomorrow's euro Summit.

SunBirdFX Daily Market Analysis : 05/22/2012

Wall Street opened the trading week with the expected short-squeeze that launched NASDAQ 2.4%, mainly because of Apple. The short-positions holders decided to realize their investments and take profits, as the buyers took advantage of that for gaining profits by opening long positions. This momentum might continue in the next few days, and in this point, it is important to remember that the previous bearish session ended with a sharp bullish day, and this might be the signal for this possible turnover. However, it is too soon to know whether the stocks have stopped falling or not and we need to wait few more days.

Euro Succeeds Short Squeeze
Sunrise Market Commentary
- Fixed Income: Global core bonds take a breather
- Investors remained mostly sidelined in an uneventful session on Friday. The G-8 meeting stressed the need for growth, besides fiscal consolidation and sees Greece staying inside EMU. This shouldn’t surprise markets today. With a razor thin calendar, trading might start the week in a lackluster mode.
- Currencies: Euro succeeds short squeeze
- On Friday, the decline of the euro halted and EUR/USD succeeded a cautious rebound, even as uncertainty on the EMU debt crisis persisted. Technical considerations will also dominate trading today as the G8 meeting provided no high profile measures to address the debt crisis.
The Sunrise Headlines
- US Equities rose for a second consecutive session on ...

SunBirdFX Daily Market Analysis : 05/21/2012

The bearish momentum in Wall Street continued last week as indices shed 4%-5% during the week. The sharp declines were expected from the technical analysis point of view, since the main indices broke significant support in their daily charts, which we have analyzed and marked as key levels. The S&P 500 broke the support at 1350 points and reached the target we set at 1300 points, mainly because of the collapse of the financial sector. The volumes are increasing, which means that the sellers are gaining power, in spite improving economic data and the optimism that spread with Facebook trading on Friday. The three main indices are close to the annual opening levels as NASDAQ's next support is at 2400 points.

We have been mentioning the support at 1.30 as a ...

Technical analysis of the NZD/USD pair on May 21th, 2012
Commentary of the NZD/USD pair :
The pair NZD/USD has opened on a small bullish gap but continues to move just above the support at 0.7550.
The pair is still moving below the lower band of its bearish channel (dotted purple lines).
The bearish movement seems to be lead by a bearish slant (purple line).
All indicators are bearish.
We continue to advise short positions as far as 0.77 is resistance.
The breakout of 0.7550 will give a new sell signal and open the way towards 0.75 and 0.7450
In case of return above 0.77, we will be neutral between this level and 0.78.
The breakout of 0.78 will give a buy signal.

The US stock markets keep falling as NASDAQ shed 2.1% yesterday and Dow is close to erase everything it gained since the beginning of the year. The investors will focus on Facebook, which will start trading today for the first time.
GBP/USD
The collapse of the stocks makes the investors to move their investments to the USD, as many believe that the American economy is the more stable than the European economies. Therefore, the USD is strengthening against most of the major currencies, which fall sharply because of that. The pound reached the target we set for the current bearish session at 1.58 and stochastic low levels indicate for a possible correction that might hit 1.59. Nevertheless, if the stocks continue falling, we will probably see additional break-down by the ...
