January 15, 2013 [email protected] | 312.347.3888 347.38 Market Overview Consequent to the extremely large decrease in the S&P in New York Monday in Asia Tuesday Position traders aggressively sold Stocks on the Sydney Tokyo Opens. Shortly before the Tokyo Open Japan’s Ministry of Finance (MOF) reported the Current Account for November as a deficit not only significantly greater than both analysts’ expectations and also deficit for October but even record large or data refuting much of recent Japan’s economic data and indeed detracting greatly from Japan’s plan to use enormous unprecedented Quantitative Easing (QE) to inflate Japan’s economy, which data indicating gravely deteriorating conditions in Japan did not though instigate Daytraders to agitate in markets generally and even only little in Forex Pair JPY/$ specially. On the Shanghai Open traders observing much lower Stock indices in Sydney Tokyo too sold Stocks; but unlike in Sydney Tokyo Position traders did not continuously sell Stocks, so that soon thereafter Position traders bought Stocks thereby pushing Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index (SSECI) alone into positive numbers. Eurozone divulged no significant government data; but on the Frankfurt London Opens Position traders as on the Asian Opens aggressively sold Stocks, and they also gradually sold JPY/$ AUD/$ CAD/$ CHF/$. After the London Open UK’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) reported both Consumer Price Index (CPI) for December as having increased Year on Year (YoY) by quantity about equal to analysts’ expectations and CPI YoY increase for November and also simultaneously Producer Price Index (PPI) for December as having increased YoY by quantity more than both analysts’ expectations and PPI YoY increase for November or all data confirming Bank of England’s (BOE) rating of inflation prospects expressed in recent BOE Meeting Minutes, which data expected and stable still provided opportunity for Daytraders to agitate in GBP/$ thereby pushing the Pair toward the lower end of the Trading Session’s range. Before the US Stock Market Open Commerce Department (DOC) Retail Sales for December as having increased Month on Month (MoM) only incrementally more than analysts’ expectations but less than Sales MoM increase for November or tenuous data confirming Labor Department’s (DOL) calamitous monthly Employment report divulged Friday, which report infirm if expected still instigated Daytraders to agitate little only in Treasuries and not other markets generally. On the Stock Market Open Position traders gradually bought Stocks and S&P on good Volume, but for the most part they did not trade much in other markets generally. Into the Trading Session Close Position traders continued to buy Stocks S&P GBP/$ but sell JPY/$ AUD/$ CAD/$ CHF/$; so S&P GBP/$ Closed near Session Highs, and JPY/$ CAD/$ CHF/$ all Closed near Session Lows.
