In the normal course of events an increase in risk appetite would find the Japanese yen suffering due to its widespread use as a funding currency. However that correlation, while not exactly dead, looks in terminal decline.

0 comments Swiss Remains Under Intervention Threat. By Nicholas Hastings
The Swiss economy may by picking up but that brings with it the imminent threat of intervention from the Swiss National Bank. Over the last week or two, the franc has found itself back in favor as doubts over the global recovery have risen and safe havens have returned to favor.

0 comments Sterling Support Will Ebb Away Now. By Nicholas Hastings
There's no excuse for not selling sterling now. As even the Bank of England governor has implied, the U.K.'s economic recovery is still far from secure and further monetary easing might yet be necessary.

0 comments W-Shaped Recovery Will Push Euro Lower. By Nicholas Hastings
Chances are the euro will continue its recent slide against the dollar. For a brief moment this week, a strong ZEW survey from Germany lifted economic sentiment and helped the single currency to bounce a little.

0 comments Putting A Cap On Norwegian Krone's Prospects. By Nicholas Hastings
The Norwegian krone's catch-up rally is about to be nipped in the bud. Norway may yet be the first G10 country to come out of recession with the Norges Bank possibly hiking interest rates before the year is over.

0 comments Euro's Data-Fuelled Rally Won't Last. By Nicholas Hastings
Euro gains from Thursday's strong euro-zone gross domestic product data will not last. For a start, the data are hardly as positive as they appear. The improvement - largely in the German and French economies - has come from government-engineered car sales and falling imports.

0 comments Staying Loyal To The Pound. By Nicholas Hastings
Sterling bulls still aren't getting the message. U.K. interest rates will not be rising early next year as they had hoped. The message started to get through to them last week when the Bank of England surprised the market by extending its GBP125 billion quantitative easing program by an additional GBP50 billion.
