ATFX Market Outlook, 2019 Nov 13

Personal opinions today:

U.K. economic and political are uncertain as the Brexit continues to be delayed. The UK unemployment rate rose to 3.4% in October, and jobless claims rose significantly, which was bearish for the British pound. On the Euro, the President of the European central bank said keeping the Euro lower for a long time was also bearish for the Euro. The investment mood has lifted Dow futures, the dollar index rose, and gold and silver prices fell in anticipation of an international trade deal that could be close and a U.S. report this evening on October CPI and core CPl growth. But the US President comments about the trade deal have affected the investment climate. Dow futures and the dollar reversed course last night. The U.S. will release API crude oil inventory data; crude oil prices have been tested at $57.50, the market is waiting, oil price correction.

In European trading today, the final German CPI rate in October and Eurozone industrial output in September were watched, which affected the Euro. In British pound, it is worth keeping track of the UK October CPI and Retail price index results. The Euro, Swiss franc and British pound could fall if inflation consumption figures in the Eurozone and the UK fall short of expectations. The Euro, Swiss franc and British pound are expected to rise if the Numbers are flat or rising. Most notable today is the U.S. October CPI and core CPl. Relevant data often bring market fluctuation. And for the future monetary policy, interest rate futures expectations, affect the dollar, indirectly affect the currency market, precious metal market and the stock market. Recommend keep watching Dow future movement.

The ECB monetary policy maintains the long-term lower interest rate; the economic outlook does not see growth, limits the Euro confidence, the Euro against the dollar trend maintains the downward. This afternoon, the final monthly CPI rate of Germany in October and the industrial output of the Eurozone in September, whether the economic atmosphere in the Eurozone can be improved, can refer to these data results. Without growth in German CPl, Eurozone industrial output fell in September, and the Euro is believed to maintain its downward trend against the dollar. After the European data, keep an eye on the U.S. CPI and core CPl for October. Keep in mind, The Eurozone data today that will report the Eurozone GDP and employment change tomorrow.

The uncertain outlook for the British economy, coupled with the planned Brexit vote at the end of October, led to weak employment data and a surge in jobless claims, which bearish British pound. The CPI and retail price index, released today, is expected to be weak. According to this analysis yesterday, assuming the weak UK job data will affect the October CPI and retail price data. If UK CPI and retail price data are weak and affect expectations of UK October retail sales tomorrow, the pound could continue to fall.
