SNB Not Off The Hook Yet. By Nicholas Hastings
For a little while back there, it looked as if the Swiss National Bank could retire from the battlefield. The Swiss economy was improving, the euro was on the rise and the need for intervention to prevent a further advance in the Swiss franc was waning.

0 comments The Risky Business Of Buying The Pound. By Nicholas Hastings
Sterling has turned into an even riskier currency play than before. At the moment, the pound is finding support largely because global investors continue to have faith in the global economic recovery and are willing to bet on it.

0 comments Like A Tired Boxer, Euro Might Need To Retire. By Nicholas Hastings
The euro has tried and tried again to punch through $1.50. But, like a tired boxer, the single currency looks as if it might have to retire now.

0 comments Dollar May Be Looking More At Rates Now. By Nicholas Hastings
Cracks are appearing in the dollar's close correlation with risk. For months, the negative relationship between the two has been crystal clear. Good economic news out of the U.S. boosts global appetite for risk and encourages investors to sell the dollar.

0 comments Yen Bulls Bow To Beijing. By Nicholas Hastings
China could well pave the way for more yen gains against the dollar. As Beijing prepares for a visit by U.S. President Barack Obama next week, the Peoples' Bank of China has made a broad hint that it could allow the yuan to rise against the dollar again.

0 comments Dollar At The Mercy Of The Markets. By Nicholas Hastings

0 comments Is That It For EUR/USD? By Nicholas Hastings
The euro is unlikely to make it to a new 2009 high over $1.5060 now. In fact, even a sustained break over $1.5000 probably won't happen as the single currency continues to lose upward momentum.

1 comment Dollar Remains Vulnerable To Risk For Now. By Nicholas Hastings
Little has changed over the last week and the status quo remains--leaving the dollar vulnerable to risk for now. After a week of major central bank meetings, key economic data and even a summit of G-20 finance ministers, the U.S. currency remains under pressure.
