Key Quotes
“In the FX market particularly commodity currencies like the AUD, NZD and CAD have weakened overnight and emerging market currencies are weaker across the board”.
“Safe-haven currencies like JPY are benefitting”.
“The oil price has only declined slightly and EUR/NOK is largely unchanged. EUR/NOK has risen sharply in recent days driven by the collapse in the oil price”.
“Given the poor liquidity in the NOK and the fact that the spike higher has sent EUR/NOK into uncharted territory, it is difficult to call the topside in EUR/NOK in a risk-off environment and the risk is to the upside”.
