Summer ends, and the markets have already shown activity. Me this is good news, especially when you consider that the currency pairs are no major movements in the summer was not. However, the stock market has shown that it is worth to wake up and have to be ready to go, and, possibly, new trends in the foreign exchange market. The U.S. stock market shows record rate of decline since the crisis began in 2008, but interestingly, the currency pair does not react to it. Logically, a collapse in the stock market has a positive impact on the U.S. dollar and government bonds. And at this point we can say that commodity currencies are just beginning to reduce the momentum and the euro and did not see any reduction.
That’s why I did not resort to long-term forecasts in the spring and summer, I do not want too much guessing at before now. On the one hand we have a good prosevshy American stock market, on the other hand euro outset until released. Now I see 2 versions of the situation, which did not paint a clear picture of the long term: 1. , A new bearish trend, where we will see a stronger dollar, I do not expect second bottom, and did not think the situation in 2008 can now be repeated. Among other things, rising gold, and it is a signal of uncertainty investors. During the period of such uncertainty should not be expected to strengthen: the euro, the pound and the currencies of commodity 2. The second option radically opposite. It is possible that the decline in U.S. stock market – just a technical correction, despite the fact that it is quite substantial, it may end up as quickly as it began.
