Unwinding Carry Trades Roil the Markets by FXstreet.com
Unstable global economic environment has brought "unwinding carry trades. We have seen the free fall JPY crosses, especially the GBP/JPY that hit a remarkable low at 186.07. looking back the week on September 8th, both the Bank of England and the European Central Bank decided to hold the rates unchanged at 5.00% and 4.25% respectively. The ECB president Trichet's comments seemed as dovish side that has pushed the EUR/USD down further. On the other hand, as the BoE decided to hold the ongoing rates, no policy statement was released. We will have to wait the release of the MPC minutes on September 17th. Okay! We keep on paying close attention to the markets during the week (Sept 7th to Sept 12th) where there are many significants events are scheduled.
