bob-slade-forex-2-150x200Good Morning:

The last day of the month reiterates the markets sentiment that the global economic recovery is faltering. The YEN has been the major winner when it comes to gains against the USD.
Safe haven demand has allowed the JPY to strengthen for the fourth row in a month.
Slowdowns in US housing, consumer spending, and business investment are all adding to economist lowering their forecast for future growth.  
Comments by Fed Chairman Bernanke this past weekend, stating that growth has been “too slow” and unemployment has been “too high” also reiterates the fact that the US and global recoveries are not getting traction.

World equity markets dropped after yesterday’s 140 point drop in the Dow.  US Futures are also pointing to a lower opening this morning.
