    09:41 10Jun09 GBP/USD Takes A Dip


    0941 GMT - After printing the day's high of 1.6444 GBP/USD dipped before the UK data run and has slipped further despite industrial production coming in slightly better than expected. GBP/USD trades down to 1.6385 from around 1.6420 just before the data. Next support comes in at 1.6360 where there is talk of stops below. (GST)

    09:53 10Jun09 MARKET TALK: Is That It For GBP/USD?

    0853 GMT- In research written before the European open BNP Paribas looked for GBP/USD to meet resistance at 1.6440 and then return toward 1.6245 and 1.6080. Well the session high has been 1.6444 and since then the rate has fallen
    to 1.6380. However, the bank does say that if 1.6440 is overcome then the recent high of 1.6655 would be challenged. GBP/USD now at 1.6412. (GST)


    nothing like hedging your bets !!

    10:57 10Jun09 GBP/USD: Safety Plays Behind Latest Dollar Recovery

    [09:57 GBP/USD: Safety Plays Behind Latest Dollar Recovery] London, June 10.

    The market is scratching around for a reason for the latest Dollar rebound and the pointers suggest safe haven plays could be behind the drop in Cable from levels around 1.6380 to 1.6325.

    News that the IMF money for the Ukraine will be larger than previously reported plus the Fitch view that Latvia has a rising risk of devaluation look to have spooked the currency markets. We are also hearing that a large Cable sell order might have been shunted through the market by a UK clearer.

    Once the emerging worries have eased (we think that Latvia devaluation risks are actually diminishing) and once any Cable orders are completed we expect to see Sterling recover back to the 1.6370-90 area as Dollar weakness returns.
