"We are in danger of forgetting that we cannot do what God does, and that God will not do what we can do." -
Oswald Chambers
FOREX MARKET
On Wednesday, the euro could not erode the 1.3050 resistance zone, as there were no important data, and rallied until
1.3036 level. Germany�s Ifo business sentiment for January dropped below market �s expectations and determined a slight
downward move of the euro. However, it is unlikely that the weaker than expected Ifo survey would exert major downward
pressure over the euro, as investors will be considering the VAT hike in Germany as the main reason for the decrease in
business sentiment. Therefore, the EUR/USD declined from 1.3000 zone down to 1.2970 level after the Ifo data were
released in mid-European trading today.
On January 24th, the domestic forex market opened in the 3.3950 zone and shortly afterwards the pair climbed until 3.4030
level which was the intraday high. This level was considered by the off-shore clients as an appropriate level to open new
postions on RON, sending the pair in the 3.3900 area. RON ended the session at 3.3900 level, despite the downward move
of its regional peers, as it was by the recovery of the short term interest rates on the interbank market.
On Thursday, the Romanian currency was bided for 3.3920-3.3930 levels at the opening time. RON strengthened slightly
until 3.3830 levels in early trading, mirroring the move of its regional peers which also faced a slight appreciation vs. euro.
Around noon time, the pair seems to lack a clear direction, oscillating in the 3.3870-3.3900 area.
MONEY MARKET
On Thursday, the overnight maturities are traded for 4.5/7% bids/asks, as a new reserve period has started and are likely to
remain within these levels tomorrow also, as the commercial banks resumed their habit of constituting higher reserves at the
beginning of the period.
