Has reaffirmed short USD medium term ..

JP note
Fixed income: Open short in 2-year USTs. Within EMU, we overweight Ireland and Italy but we prefer to position for this through CDS.
Equities: Asset reflation favors the high-risk, high-beta parts of the equity market.
Credit: European credit 2010 outlook—stay overweight Financials focusing on Lower Tier II, Tier I issued in 2009, and distressed Financials within HY.
FX: We stay short USD medium term and focus on crossrates where interest rate markets looked mispriced.
Alternatives: Stay short oil, but long base metals and agricultural products.

So far the AUD/CAD carry trade remains upward.

AUD/CAD is correcting...broke a short term trend line but still has its major trend intact.

So a correction to the main uptrend line is likely in order.

AUD/USD completes a bullish inverted head & shoulders pattern after the Australian central bank talked about an "upswing" in their economy that could last for years.

AUD/CAD needs to break this top resistance line in order for the carry trade to continue on.

Great info here Mr. Wilson.

I'm thinking that AUD should break higher after this consolidation as in times past since, overall, the rate hike should be bullish for them...especially since they are so far ahead of most banks in their rate hike cycle.

On top of that, the USD should have low rates for months to come at least. So the widening differential between these two could continue this carry trade.

How will they position themselves as regards Ireland and Italy?. Can Ireland take any more of a beating?. Probably. Actually, definitely i'd say

Simple way is via Sovereign Credit default swaps (S-CDS)
Here's Italy's CDS for example
ITALY 4AB951 Rep Italy 91 -2 5 17

Hi Sean
A snap election could be problematic ......

CANBERRA - Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's finger remains on the trigger for a snap election despite renewed assurances yesterday by his deputy, Julia Gillard, that the Australian Government has no plans to use the climate war as an excuse for an early poll.

Rudd's finger still on poll trigger after ETS blow - World - NZ Herald News
