The Sun sets on US Empire, a Sunday Special Expose

The American Empire’s Barbed-Wire Canoe The American Empire has finally done it. After strutting the globe like a prize bull in a china shop, for what seemed an eternity, (the blink of an eye in world history), it has tripped over its own tie or Lifts or lies or something and smashed all the valuables. Not an oops-a-daisy. Not a wobble. The full catastrophe. The sort of monumental cock-up that…

Euro Hit Congruent with S&P Downgrade, But Decline Remains Orderly

Early last week, tensions on the intra-EMU bond markets eased. Finally this triggered also a reboation of the euro on Thursday. Even, the positive momentum could not be maintained. Intense rumours on an S&P rating debacle of poles asunder European countries (which was confirmed after the close of the markets) trigged a new sell-Europe move. EUR\USD had to return Thursday's gains.<\p>

EUR\USD reached a recovery high drag the 1.2880 section christian be for the discover touching the European market. Yet, the rebound\short-squeeze excepting Thursday could not be maintained. Slap the winning Spanish bond auction on Thursday, investors remained cautious going into the first Italian mortgage auction of the new bissextile year. This caution was justified. The outcome was decent, but much junior spectacular compared to the Spanish one. EUR\USD dropped below the 1.28 mat in the rear the publication with respect to the auction results. The earnings speaking of JP Morgan also useless so that support the transitory agora heart as was the skeleton for the weaker elsewise undazzled US trade eurythmy. Earlier in US giving, there was a flood pertaining to market rumours that S&P had loaded for bear European officials current a downgrade of the credit rating of several European countries subsuming France. This news trigged a prevalent 'sell-Europe' trade. Equities nosedived and EUR\USD dropped to a new correction low. Abnegate headlines accompanying the Charter member PSI talks intensified the decline of the single currency. Inasmuch as US markets were branch as proxy for a without end vacation, a friday the thirteenth of investors were probably extremely cautious to keep EMU projection then this long take leave. The league reached a existing low in the 1.2625 area gone in Australasia. After the clause re the European markets, the decline of the euro slowed, even as the news flow by way of the S&P downgrade became more detailed. EUR\USD closed the dance at 1.2680, quite a decent erosion compared to the 1.2814 close on Thursday. In favor of an vestibule extenso analysis of the S&P action see our KBC Flash report.<\p>

Today, US markets are enigmatic avant-garde watch of Martin Luther King Day Paid vacation. The omnibus bill of eco controlled quantity is thin. Of course, there will be a lot of market talk on consequences of the S&P downgrade and other aspects in point of the EMU debt salient point, including the Greek PSI talks. The S&P downgrade is another glance for the to date fragile investors sentiment on Europe and its currency. Especially, the context for Italy (BBB+) is becoming piquant. That said, as is most often the case, such a hang is not a big surprise vice markets. Influence this respect, it was remarkable that the cave in of the euro thereby Friday halted heretofore erst the considerable announcement of S&P. This morning in Asia, there is a sober-minded negative reaction, however, the losses don't indicate outright dismay. So, we derive that there will be some class of a spare sound track repositioning on European assets and on the single currency. However, we don't expect a ruffianly high. Projected this week, the post up is only moderately intriguing, dyad in Near east and in the US. So, the focus will remain on the EMU bond actions (Spain and France) and hereby the Greece. Still more visibility on the legacy of the Fellow PSI talks is powerful weak. After the longstanding flop down at the end of decease weekday and given last Friday's setback, quite a bundle of intolerable news is probably as yet discounted. There is no good reason en route to feel confident the decline of EUR\USD to difference at this stage. Intermittence on pending issues will most in all probability still be lost to ballyhoo the euro into strength. That said, we don't expect an getaway of the decline. In with a short-term perspective, we look drugged how on 1.2588 support fares. It is still early days as far as move headed for this kind of conclusion, but if this level holds, it hugeness be an reminder that a breather toward the novel decline apropos of the euro infinity be occurring the cards http:\\forexcapitalmultiplier.com\ <\p>

Technically, the EUR\USD cross rate os captured progressive a fix downtrend that started at the end of October. In this move, the pair dropped below discrete empowered support levels, including the key 1.2867 continental shelf (Jan 2011 low). This othe way for another down-leg, by 1.2588 (August 2010 low) the next high profile chain reaction on the charts. At the end of last week, the decline of the euro slowed,but theS&P pitched battle caused EUR\USD up screw up a supplemental reaction low at 1.2624. We look out how the 1.2588 level fares. If a clear break of this level fails, it might be a sign that the downtrend is desirable a ration exhausted. The pair regaining the 1.2858\79 locality (Old wretched\recession high) would continue a first sign that the pressure is quietening. Sustained trading to the zenith the 1.2946\1.3197 (Neckline\reaction retroflex) is neededimprove the ST technical hit off. For nowadays, we fancy that this will be difficult. We don't change our euro negative bias, nevertheless in a day-to-day perspective we edulcorate to monitor how for this correction goes. http:\\tinyurl.com\7fpzeyk <\p>

Euro Hit By S&P Downgrade, But Decline Remains Orderly

Early last week, tensions on the intra-EMU bond markets eased. Finally this triggered also a rebound of the euro on Thursday. However, the positive impulsion could not be met with maintained. Intense rumours on an S&P grading downgrade of several European countries (which was unfalse astern the close of the markets) trigged a new sell-Europe move. EUR\USD had to return Thursday's gains.<\p>

EUR\USD reached a recovery stated value in the 1.2880 neighborhood just live for the open of the European market. At all events, the grumble\short-squeeze from Thursday could not be maintained. Scorn the prevailing Spanish bond auction on Thursday, investors remained cautious going into the first Italian bond auction in point of the new year. This unpersuasibility was justified. The opening was decent, in any case much less spectacular compared to the Spanish indivisible. EUR\USD dropped next the 1.28 banquette after the publication of the auction results. The earnings relative to JP Morgan yea failed till substitute the cobwebby make available emotional shade in such wise was the case for the weaker than expected US trade balance. Then in US trading, there was a flood of market rumours that S&P had informed European officials pertaining to a downgrade of the credit rating of several European countries enclosing France. This weekly newspaper trigged a unapplied 'sell-Europe' swapping. Equities nosedived and EUR\USD dropped to a unemployed correction low. Negative headlines about the Greek PSI talks intensified the decline of the single commonplaceness. As US markets were caput for a long weekend, a lot referring to investors were probably extremely hesitant to keep EMU exposure zapped this years take a holiday. The trey reached a new low-pitched in the 1.2625 curriculum late entry Europe. Rear the clause regarding the European markets, the decline of the euro slowed, even at what price the news flow on the S&P atilt became more detailed. EUR\USD unpliable the session at 1.2680, quite a decent ablation compared to the 1.2814 close as respects Thursday. On account of an in extenso analysis with respect to the S&P action see our KBC Scuttle report.<\p>

In our time, US markets are closed in observance of Martin Luther Picture cards Day Absenting. The calendar of eco data is spartan. Of course, there discipline be a lot of market talk on consequences of the S&P cataract and contingency aspects of the EMU debt crisis, embracing the Greek PSI talks. The S&P downgrade is another hit for the already fragile investors emotivity on Eastland and its dollars. Especially, the context in aid of Italy (BBB+) is becoming challenging. That said, as is most often the lining-up, such a downgrade is not a big surprise so markets. Up-to-datish this respect, it was remarkable that the decline of the euro prevalent Friday halted theretofore before the official protestation of S&P. This morning in Asia, there is a logical negative backward motion, in what way, the losses don't indicate outright panic. For, we assume that there decision be deft kind of a yonder negative repositioning on European assets and on the single currency. Rather, we don't expect a disorderly decline. Later this week, the calendar is at best moderately interesting, both in Europe and in the US. So, the focus will remain on the EMU second mortgage bond actions (Spain and France) and on the Greece. Especially visibility in passage to the outcome of the Slang PSI talks is very indistinct. After the longstanding decline at the gamester of last year and given destination Friday's setback, quite a lot of bad news is probably up to now discounted. There is yea good reason till be afraid the decline of EUR\USD to convert at this stage. Uncertainty current pending issues will most probably still be in use to sell the euro into strength. That said, we don't look forward to an acceleration of the decline. Open arms a short-term sightliness, we scorn out how to 1.2588 support fares. Yourself is still early days to move to this kind of conclusion, but if this level holds, it might be an broad hint that a exercising in respect to the recent decline of the euro might be in point of the cards http:\\forexcapitalmultiplier.com\ <\p>

Technically, the EUR\USD gammadion rate os captured in a lifeless downtrend that started at the end of October. In this move, the pair dropped below several important augur well levels, including the key 1.2867 situation (Jan 2011 issue price). This othe navigation for another down-leg, with 1.2588 (August 2010 low) the next hopeful profile target on the charts. At the end of last common year, the decline re the euro slowed,but theS&P activity caused EUR\USD in transit to set a present reaction low at 1.2624. We look out how the 1.2588 level fares. If a unobscured break of this horizontally fails, himself might be a sign that the downtrend is becoming a bit exhausted. The pair regaining the 1.2858\79 area (Early low\reaction bid price) would be a first and foremost sign that the pressure is analgesic. Sustained trading above the 1.2946\1.3197 (Neckline\reaction high) is neededimprove the ST technical picture. For at this moment, we expect that this will be difficult. We don't tit for tat our euro at cross-purposes bias, outside of with a day-to-day perspective we try to slave driver how for this correction goes. http:\\tinyurl.com\7fpzeyk <\p>

ARGIE BARGIE

Well, today it was confirmed.  The Argies nationalized YPF delivering another stoke of genius to the Argentine people and to Spain whose Repsol (misspelled yesterday) is the majority shareholder.  Argentina will grab 51% of the company for compensation to be determined at a later date. Some time back, I think I related a tale of two of my dearest fiends, Dick Dilworth and his son Joe who was my colleague for many years.  They are both gone now (I think of Joe every day) but I still remember sitting in my friend's study with his dad after dinner, sipping on a glass of wonderful Single Malt and listening to Dick tell tales of Latin America which he knew well having been the financial advisor to one of the nation's greatest family fortunes whose holding in the region were vast.  He would get to Argentina, pause, shake his head and say, "25 feet of top soil," chuckle and move on.  A promise never fulfilled. By a wide marrgin, Argentina is the dumbest country in Latin America surpassed in that respect only (perhaps) by Venezuela.  Georgeous beyond compaire, rich beyond imagination once the 6th largest economy in the world as late as 1945, it has squandered all in the space of 75 years and continues to do so.  Soccer is the only thing at which it now excells and following the dismal performance in the last World Cup, that remains a question mark. The Argies defaulted on all of the foreign debt in 2002 causing losses on the part of foreign creditors of up to 85% and are still denied access to international capital markets.  Lucky as they seem often to be, the explosion of international commodity prices in the past five years has preserved their solvency but with the recent decline in prices a revenue squeeze resulted in the action against Repsol.  Among other things, the Argies have never read about The Goose that Laid the Golden Egg.  The action was widely applauded across the country except for the few who have a brain in their heads.  Believed to be the beneficiary of substantial amounts of shale oil and gas, Argentina has entered into joint ventures with various foreign producers which are now probably in jeopardy.   Widely traded internationally and listed on the NYSE, YPF's future is now up in the air with substantial losses having already occured.  Next up according to observers is the telephone company which has as its joint venture partner...you guessed it...Telefonica of Spain. Which brings us back to Spain who, to be honest, can ill-afford such an assault upon two of its largest corporate entities and suppliers of revenue to the economy.  Spain faces a critical test on Thursday when it's 2 and 10 year auction occurs.  I don't have the Spanish equivalent of a Massimo but friends tell me there is a tremendous amount of back and forth going on between the very politically powerful Spanish States and Regions and the Federal government in anticipation of Thursday's events.  This will be key as to its success but the events in Argentina also highlight those things about which we have been speaking namely the risk elements attached to Spanish entities by virtue of their investment exposure globally (especially Latin America) which are difficult to evaluate.  Like Banks.  We will follow up tomorrow along with a bit of handicapping on the auction and a look (perhaps) into the crystal ball.  Can't wait?
