EUR Resurfaces, but Will it Stick this Time?

The EUR has reemerged these past couple of trading days. Few analysts were anticipating such a rapid bounce-back in the value of the EUR by this time last week. Now, however, it seems as if this rise has left some feeling uneasy. Upward corrections to such a sustained downward movement are to be expected, analysts have repeatedly stated, but there is still a concern that these sharp swings represent instability, and have a number of investors worried as a result.

Hi Forexyard,

I think that gold will eventually rise a lot as things are only going to get worse. Let us be very clear, although gold has gone up 5 times since the 1999 bottom at $250, it is nowhere near its peak. Adjusted for real inflation the 1980 gold peak in today’s prices corresponds to around $7,200 today. So gold could easily go up 6 times from the current price and still be within normal parameters.

My two cents on the outlook for gold!!:D

Non-Farm Payrolls Could Further USD Bullishness

Ahead of the US Non-Farm Payroll data, expected at 12:30 GMT today, the Dollar seems to be trading on the upside. The forecast has put American employment into a healthy increase for the previous month, with a concurrent drop in the official unemployment rate alongside it. The NFP is expected to show an increase of over 500,000 jobs last month. Should the figure come in near what is expected, the USD will likely see a gratuitous increase given the risk averse climate currently in play.
