ATFX Market Outlook, 2019 Oct 25

 

Personal opinions today:

 

Britain prime minister failed to push for a Brexit on time, which will need to seek a delay applied to the European Commission at the end of the month. In addition, the British prime minister plans to arrange a December election, adding to the fact that the UK congress could not pass the timetable for the Brexit agreement before the deadline of the European Union in late October, or the second Brexit vote, which led to a fall in the pound and the Euro and the rise of the dollar. But last night, the United States published several critical economic data, mostly about productivity and consumer data weakness, limiting the dollar's rise. U.S. data were weak, and Dow futures fell. U.S. interest rate futures were expected to heat up after U.S. data were released. The market forecast that the bank of the United States and the storage bureau had a 25-point chance at the end of October. If Fed interest rates cut, bullish investment sentiment, capital flow to the stock market, commodity markets, with gold and oil prices rising.

 

Europe opened today, Germany release November GFK consumer confidence index. Then Germany's Ifo business index was equally crucial in October. The recent Eurozone and German figures have not grown. It is estimated that there has been no growth in Germany's data today. On the contrary, data weak, more likely to trigger the euro and sterling continue to fall. Last night, the European central bank held interest, as the market was widely expected to change the monetary policy of the European central bank, but at the ECB's meeting, it suggested a study of expanded policy on easing. In the future, the ECB will still be able to take a reduction in interest rates or increase the size of the scale, allowing the Euro to downward. In addition, the UK cannot complete the program before the European Union deadline. Believe that European currencies will still fall, and if the federal reserve is intended to cut interest rates next week, it will temporarily ease the fall in European currencies. The Dow futures, gold and oil prices, are expected to rise in the short term. The dollar and Dow futures will be down if the Michigan consumer confidence index is below market forecasts today.
