"If you want to be entertained, take up skydiving. There's an inverse correlation between an investment's entertainment value
and its expected return." - Bill Bernstein
FOREX MARKET
Yesterday the Leu has continued to correct higher together with several emerging market's currencies. The EUR/RON has opened at
3.6150, and except for the early high of 3.6200, the morning trade was dominated by important selling orders and by noon the Euro was
already bided at 3.5950. By the end of the day the pair slided further to 3.5870 and closed at 3.5880.
One hour after the market close the NBR Governor has presented the decisions taken by the bank's board. The minimum reserve
requirements for RON liabilities shorter than two years have been increased from 16% to 20% and the monetary policy rate has been
hiked by 25 basis points, from 8.5% to 8.75%. Due to the increase in RON reserves, the first consequence of these measures will be an
increase in the cost of RON household credits, at a time when they had surged by 110.5% y/y in May.
The monetary policy rate increase, although at just 25 basis points having a limited effect on internal consumption, will somewhat help
stabilize the FX market as pressure on the Leu had increased substantially in the last days, and central banks in neighboring emerging
markets had already operated bigger rate hikes.
The EUR/RON has opened at 3.5920, was initially bought to 3.5980 and is now stable at 3.5940.
The US Consumer Confidence figure for June came out yesterday at 105.7 versus 103.8 expected. The data failed to provide significant
support for the Dollar, but managed to stop the EUR/USD from rising. The rate had increased from 1.2560 at noon to 1.2610 and after
US trade opened it returned to a range between 1.2560 and 1.2590. The Euro is currently quoted at 1.2565-70.
MONEY MARKET
NBR's monetary policy rate increase had a slight effect on money market rates at the start of the trading session. O/N rates opened at an
8.5/9.5 average, 50 basis points up from yesterday, however later on returned to 8/9%.
