25 May 2009

8:00 GMT German Ifo Business Climate report (already released):

- Monthly indicator measuring confidence in the German business sector
- Highly respected report considering its historic correlation between the economic conditions of Germany and the broader Euro-Zone
- Report showed that business confidence rose, but not as high as forecast.
- These results may push the EUR slightly lower throughout the day

All Day to Consider: Bank Holidays in US and UK:

- Today there will be very low liquidity in the market due to bank holidays in some of the bigger economies
- As such, expect high volatility on currency movements.
- A normally small impact on currency values may be larger movements than traditionally due to this low liquidity.
- Bank Holidays: US = Memorial Day; UK = Spring Bank Holiday

Gold tips:

- There may be a “head and shoulders” formation developing on the hourly and 4-hour charts for Gold.
- If this is true, Gold will see a sharp depreciation this evening, or early tomorrow morning.
- Target price may be as low as $935 (current price is $952).
