FX UPDATE : USD WEAKNESS CONTINUES TO COMPLEMENT OTHER MACRO VIEWS, IN MANY CASES WE HAVE BREACHED SIGNIFICANT LEVELS.

THE AUD COULD BE THE USD BAROMETER GIVEN IT IS SO CLOSE TO A MULTI YEAR RETRACEMENT 0.7185 AND MOVING AVERAGE 0.7276.

USD CAD IS ALSO POISED TO BREACH A MAJOR 50 PERIOD MOVING AVERAGE!

HERE ARE A SELECTION OF USD CROSSES THAT MUST SURELY SEE THE USD FADE OVER TIME. SIMILAR TO THE BOND MARKET REJECTION OF ITS MARCH EXTREMES!

I HAVE USED NON-CORE CROSSES AS THEY ACHIEVED SOME MAJOR DISLOCATIONS IN MARCH SIMILAR TO US BONDS. I HAVE MARRIED THE USD WITH BRL,MXN,RUB AND CLP. THEY HIGHLIGHT BOTH USD AND US BONDS ARE HEADING LOWER FOR SOME TIME.

SOME CROSSES ARE AT MULTI YEAR EXTREMES AND REPRESENT A SIZEABLE LONGTERM TRADE OPPORTUNITY.
