Canada Trade Balance Due at 8:30AM Posted: 10 Dec 2010 04:45 AM PST |
China raises reserve requirement Posted: 10 Dec 2010 04:38 AM PST The Peaples Bank of China announced overnight that banks will need to hold more reserves as they raised the reserve requirement by 50 basis points. This was the 3rd increase in the last 5 weeks and is an attempt to slow lending and inflationary pressures. The rate the largest banks need to hold is now 18.5%. The trade surplus rose to 22.89 B last mont. Exports rose by 34.9% YoY. Imports increased 37.7% b but exports at $153.3 billion is still well above the total imports of $130.4 billion. In October they raised interest rates but there is speculation that they may raise rates over the weekend. Later tonight (9 PM ET) they will release inflationary date which is expected to rise to 4.7% from 4.4%. This would be the highest YoY increase since August of 2008. YoY CPI inflation was at 1.5% in January 2010. Producer prices are expected to rise to 5.1% from 5.0%. Retail Sales are expected to rise to +18.7% from 18.6% YoY and Industrial Production is expected to show a decline to 13.0 from 13.1%. The market will likely be looking for an increase in the rate over the weekend if the numbers come in as expected. A rate increase will likely pressure the commodity currencies like AUDUSD and NZDUSD. They have benefitted from the increase in exports to China. Europe has benefitted - especially Germany - from an increase in their exports of their industrial commodities and luxury exports. If growth slows as a result of a more concerted effort to slow growth, then this could also hurt the EU. As a result of the increased weekend risk, there may be some added volatility today as London/Europe look to exit for the weekend. |
