Markets Remain Risk-Off after German Merkel's Defeated in Local ElectionsRisk aversion dominates the markets today as Asian equities open broadly lower follow the employment data triggered sharp fall in US stocks last Friday. There are also fresh concerns over the situation in Europe after German Chancellor Angela Merkel's ruling party, losses support in a local election in Merkel's home state. The center-left Social Democrats won 35.7% of Sunday's vote while support of Merkel's conservative Christian Democratic Union slid to 23.1%. Investors are also cautious ahead of an eventful week and Europe, where German court will rule on bailout, ECB will discuss Italy bond-buying and Greece will find out bone swap interest.Full Report Here... |    |

That said, it's also unlikely for the central bank to trim interest rates as headline inflation remains high and the job market is robust.Read more... RBA To Pause For The Rest Of The YearThe RBA will likely be on hold at the September meeting. Indeed, the central bank is now expected to leave interest rates unchanged longer than previously expected. Some market participants even bet a rate cut later in the year after the governor's testimony to the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Economics.

European Session: Orders and Options WatchJPY: Despite initial brief bounce to an intra-day high of 76.96, once again the greenback ran into heavy offers from exporters ahead of 77.00 and has retreated on risk aversion due to weakness in Asian equities. More selling interest is tipped at 77.20 with buy stop orders remain at 77.30 but offers from same parties should emerge again from 77.50 up to 77.70 with next stops located at 77.80 and above 78.00. On the downside, bids from Japanese margin accounts and importers are still noted at 76.50-60 with stops planted below 76.40, 76.20 and large stops are tipped below 75.90. EUR/JPY also extended last week's decline and stops below 108.80 were triggered, more stops below 108.50 are in focus but bids are likely to emerge around 108.00.Read more... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
