Risk Selloff Intensifies again as Bank Shares Tumble on Contagion and Greece

Markets are clearly responding very negatively to EU's message that they're reviewing private sector involvement in Greece's second bailout. There are also additional concerns on contagion after Moody's warned of Franco-Belgian financial groups Dexia's exposure to Greece. Banks shares led European stocks lower with FTSE down -2.7%, DAX down -3.3%, CAC down -3.3% at the time of writing. US stocks also open lower with DOW quickly losing over -180 pts within 20 minutes. Commodities also tumble with CRB index losing another -2.1 pts and is heading closing to 290 level. More importantly, note that Crude oil finally takes out 75.71 key near term support level which should now pave the way to 70 psychological level.

RBA Turns Dovish, Rate Cut Stance Looms

As expected, the RBA left the cash rate unchanged at 4.75%. Yet the post-meeting statement came in more dovish than the previous one. Governor Glenn Stevens downplayed impacts of recent deterioration US and European outlook. Nevertheless, it now appears more likely that the central bank will consider a rate cut in coming months if inflation is under control.

Trade Idea Update: GBP/USD – Sell at 1.5500

As the British pound has fallen again after meeting renewed selling interest just below the Kijun-Sen, suggesting the decline from 1.5716 is still in progress and further weakness to 1.5350 would be seen, however, loss of near term downward momentum should prevent sharp fall below there and reckon previous support at 1.5326 would hold from here, bring a corrective rebound later.
