FOREX MARKET
On Monday, the EUR/USD has been traded higher at 1.2110 in Asian session, however it fell substantially
lower towards 1.2030-1.2060 zone in the European one. This week the market will look to see if the latest
strong European data can continue to support the latest EUR strength. We need to see a close above 1.2210 to
support the bullish bias and give scope for a test of 1.2320, otherwise the pair is back in a very large range
with no apparent direction, which could leave the EURUSD very quiet in the weeks to come. On the downside
1.1980 is support then to 1.1950, which needs to stay intact if more upside is to come this week.
Lately, the Romanian currency reduced its ranging area within 100 pips, as the market widened and it takes
substantial volumes to move the exchange rate visibly. On Friday, the EUR/USD has been traded within
3.5100-3.5230 levels, while the traded volumes were rather large. On April 3rd, the opening bids stood at
3.5200, but soon the market moved back in the 3.5150 equilibrium zone specific for the last trading days.
MONEY MARKET
On Monday, the overnight interest rates remained flat as compared to the previous week in the 8-9% zone.
Therefore we expect a rather modest offer coming from the commercial banks at the 1M depo auction held by
NBR today, as the RON excess diminished lately on the Romanian money market.
Starting March 23rd, Finansbank has hiked again its interest rates, offering for several maturities the best
yields in the market both for RON and EUR deposits.
