Blanchard Economic Research Note



-- Posted Monday, 7 May 2007 | Digg This ArticleDigg It!

We've got a very busy week for currency activity on tap.  The Fed releases their May rate decision on Wednesday at 2 PM after two days of meetings and the ECB and Bank of England also make rate decisions on Thursday.

According to the Bank Credit Analyst this past Friday, we should see no action out of the Fed as they continue to keep rate changes on hold, but the key for markets will be the nuances in the language.  Any slight changes that hint at when rate cuts could begin (we believe rate increases are nearly off the table as an option) will be what the general markets take as the cue.  Precious metals and the dollar index will be very volatile on interpretation of the language in the Fed statement, but we believe that after the news is digested and the ECB/Bank of England raise rates on Thursday, the dollar should come under renewed pressure to the downside while precious metals enjoy the bounce.

This week should go a long way towards underscoring the importance of gold and silver trading as currency alternatives. 

London markets are closed today for a national holiday.
