		<description><![CDATA[The collapse of efforts to form a Greek government this week has reinforced, for many, the bullish outlook for the big dollar. The run-up to Greek parliamentary elections on June 17 will be marked by continued concerns about a disorderly exit from monetary union. The market currently sees contagion fears making inroads with other periphery economies. Moody’s downgraded sixteen Spanish banks by one to three notches and they still have another eleven EU members to vet by next month. The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Canada looks like a safe bet to be the first amongst the G8 members to hike rates. Last month’s inflation figures were a tad stronger than expected, topping Governor Carney’s +2% inflation target. Despite the small breach, no CBank in this stuttering economic environment would be rushing to raise rates. Canada’s outperforming metrics, employment, housing and manufacturing data still have to combat specific external headwinds that scream for extending domestic accommodative policies. The BoC has been very vocal about being [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Asian bourses have ended trading, hitting four-month lows as weaker US data added to rising worries over Europe. Commodities and their currency sensitive pairings are not immune to the surround sound of contagion fears. Gold has been able to dig itself out of Monday&#8217;s bear market trap, ending on a high, and in the black. The same cannot be said for the Aussie, usually a strong yellow metal supporter, which is seen as higher risk because of the country&#8217;s commodity [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[World shares slid and German borrowing costs hit record lows on Friday as a deepening Spanish banking crisis, uncertainty about Greece&#8217;s future in the euro zone and lacklustre U.S. data bolstered safe-haven assets.
World stocks, as measured by the MSCI index, dropped 0.7 percent and are now below where they began the year, having relinquished all the first-quarter gains fuelled by the European Central Bank&#8217;s injection of more than a trillion euros of three-year money.
That rally is now a distant memory [...]]]></description>

Guarantees provided by U.S. lenders on government, bank and corporate debt in those countries rose 10 percent from the previous quarter to $567 billion, according to the most recent data from the Bank for International Settlements. Those guarantees refer to credit-default swaps written on bonds.

The euro reached a four-month low versus the dollar after Fitch Ratings downgraded Greece’s long-term credit rating, citing heightened risk that the nation may not be able to sustain membership in the monetary union. Bullion jumped 2.5 percent yesterday, the most since October, as a U.S. report showed manufacturing in the Philadelphia region unexpectedly shrank [...]]]></description>

The 50% of Americans who believe that Facebook is a fad, will not be allowed to gatecrash today’s party. The EUR bull thought they caught a break with yesterday’s dismal US data potentially opening the Q3 flood gates. That euphoric feeling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This market needs to catch its breath after the selling pressure across currencies and the blood bath in equities this week. It can be rather monotonous to listen to the euphoric rants of the EUR bear. To date, it has been an unfair playing field. They have all the negative ammunition. For the bulls, it seems they have to wait for that squeeze going just a wee bit too far to the left. Risk markets, especially commodities, are very oversold [...]]]></description>

Meanwhile, the results of the election earlier this month failed to result in a clear winner leaving the country absent an effective government when a [...]]]></description>

The central bank sees inflation at about 1.6 percent in two years time.
The Bank&#8217;s forecasts represent a much slower fall in inflation than it predicted back in February as well as a weaker growth outlook. It said that the [...]]]></description>

However, this time it appears that voters are now ready to roll the dice and cast their lot with a fervent left-wing coalition running on a campaign to pressure Eurozone authorities for greater leniency in the country’s existing austerity commitments.
The most recent polls suggest that the SYRIZA party – an acronym that translates to “Coalition of the Radical Left” – [...]]]></description>

A floating-rate note sold a decade ago by Europe’s most- indebted nation matures today. Repaying the security would disadvantage investors who took losses in the bond exchange and voters facing spending cuts. Reneging on the obligation also would constitute a default, triggering derivatives [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Germany helped the euro zone avoid its second recession in three years, as growth in the region’s largest economy offset contraction in other euro zone member countries.
German gross domestic product (GDP) rose 0.5 percent from the fourth quarter of 2011, when it fell 0.2 percent. Growth was mainly driven by net trade, as exports rose and domestic consumption increased, while investment declined.
In the meantime, according to a report published by the European Union’s statistics office, GDP in the 17-nation euro [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Investors should remember not to ignore the current economic data despite the market’s obsession with events in Greece. We should be concerned with developments in the periphery countries, however, becoming stubbornly obsessed with negativity and EUR short positioning is sometimes not fruitful. These times that can end up being the most damaging to a portfolio. Being myopically obsessed can be expensive, right up there with lack of trading discipline. 
The current relevant US data is likely to accentuate the slide [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Greek President, Karolos Papoulias, has so far failed to secure agreement on a united government. The fears that the country is heading toward a possible exit from the euro area are rising.
The President called the four main parties, including the centre-right New Democracy and the Socialist Pasok, to try to form an emergency government. Greece’s biggest anti-bailout party, Syriza, declined to join the government yesterday, explaining that it would not back any coalition, which supported austerity. The moderate Democratic [...]]]></description>

Investors remain nervous as last ditch Greek coalition talks over the weekend broke down. To some it’s rational, others irrational, however, whatever is said, in the big picture, investors are scurrying to the sidelines, selling riskier assets and beginning to hoard those record low yielding bonds and bunds.
Risk assets have gotten little support from China’s RRR cuts over the [...]]]></description>

Investors happen to appear more bullish on JPY and GBP and most bearish on the antipodean currencies. The overall market bearish view looks like supporting the traditional low-yielding safe heaven currencies. This is certainly being backed by the negative April surprises on Euro area growth data. The bears conundrum is why has the single unit held [...]]]></description>

Employment rose by 58,200 following a March jump of 82,300 that was the biggest since September 2008, Statistics Canada said today in Ottawa. The labor force grew by 72,500, lifting the jobless rate to 7.3 percent from 7.2 percent. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg News projected a 10,000 gain in jobs and [...]]]></description>

The New Democracy won the elections with 19 percent of the vote, gaining 108 seats; Syriza was second with 17 percent, winning 52 seats; and Pasok came third with 13 percent, or 41 seats.
