"Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new
ending." - Carl Bard
FOREX MARKET
Last week, the greenback failed to breach the 1.2900 support level, despite recent encouraging data on US economy which
reinforced market's expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep rates on hold in the coming months. The Michigan
survey on US consumer sentiment rose above consensus estimates and triggered a short rally of the dollar which stopped at
1.2910 level. Afterwards, the pair reversed its move and increased up to 1.3000 zone, as some investors decided to take
short positions on USD. On Monday, the euro consolidated its recent gains and ranges between 1.2950-1.2980 levels,
showing strong upside potential.
On Friday, the domestic forex session opened 100 pips lower than previous day, respectively in the 3.3800 area. Until
noon time, the Romanian currency extended gains until 3.3750 level and remained rangebound in 1.2800 area by the end
of trading session.
On Monday, the Romanian forex market started at 3.3770 level, but remained almost flat in this zone, ranging less than
50 pips in the first part of trading. We expect RON to continue its appreciation against the euro in the coming days
towards 3.3500 zone, due to the recent bullish mood of investors towards emerging markets.
MONEY MARKET
On Friday, the ON interest rates remained deadlocked in the 0.5-2.5% area, as the high liquidity conditions had not
diminished lately on the Romanian interbank market. The National Bank will be holding its usual deposit auction today,
however we expect rather symbolic allotment ratio.
