The most of Asian stocks today trade in downside according to the pessimistic comments of Ben Bernanke regarding economic perspectives of US economy.

Ben Bernanke’s views do not inspire investors, the markets fall today was a consequence of the economic growth uncertainty.

Bank of China announced that Chinese Yuan should take into account the world economic situation, now the Yuan rate is fluctuating in both directions and it means that Yuan is stable.

Yesterday was the worse period for the Yen because investors withdrew long-term funds to provoke mass buying of the risk assets.

Due to waiting for these results EURO drops against USD during the European session.

YEN and USD grew up due to the consolidation of Asian stock market indexes.

If other stock markets go up, EURO may continue the uptrend.

The positive results of “stress tests” caused concern that these tests were too simple and didn’t reflect the real financial situation.

Investors start buying EURO because they rely on the tests results which show that European bank system wasn’t destroyed by the crisis.

UK retail sales increased considerably and demonstrated the highest level since 2007.

Yesterday in the evening EUR/USD fixed new maximum and this fact stopped all attempts of EURO to continue its growth. So the uptrend of EUR/USD is failing little by little.

GBP/YEN trades next to the six-week peaks and it draw investors’ attention to this pair.

Until USD/YEN is below 88.20 the descending dynamics of the pair continues.

It’s the second day when YEN becomes stronger against EUR and USD.

The data regarding US economic growth will be published on Friday and this event is considered as a one more proof of economic deceleration.

For the pair EUR/USD the level of 1.3000 is a psychological area.

GBP/USD tries to continue increasing, in the morning this pair reached the new high.

The Dollar weakened against other major currencies as data showing a drop in jobless claims (457K vs. 468K prior), failed to offset fears over a slowdown in U.S. economic growth. NASDAQ and Dow Jones declined by 0.57% and 0.29% respectively, crude oil rose by 1.8% closing at 78.3$ a barrel, Gold (XAU) strengthened by 0.7% closing at 1168.4$ an ounce.

Today Asian markets fall because of Japanese stocks which were at new 16-month low. Investors are anxious about influence of the yen on the Japanese economy.

In Asia the EURO and the USD fall against the YEN.

Today the EUR/USD pair demonstrates a positive way. The session’s maximum was at 1.2698. Then EURO has turned and currently is near to $1.2670. The pair has to speed up over 1.2710 to prove its uptrend.

Yesterday weak US data had an impact on the markets. Therefore now investors are waiting for Friday’s employment data to find out if there is reason to expect a double dip recession.

The USD dropped against the major currencies as a result of the ADP's data.

The oil continues its uptrend: the oil prices were supported by the news from the US private sector enterprises which discharged 10.000 workers in August.

The same situation is with gold prices. The figures of private sector in the US supported the gold growth.

In investors opinions the Yen will stand strong during whole week.

China’s figures published today showed the stable growth in the national economy and traders were encouraged by this fact because Chinese economy is considered the second largest economy in the world.
