| Action Insight Mid-Day Report | Sterling Tumbles on M4 and Fiscal Concern Sterling dropped sharply in European session today after data showed that M4 broad money supply had its sharpest monthly fall on record. M4 fell by -1.1% in December and rose 6.4% yoy, much worse than expectation of 0.9%mom and 8.9% yoy rise. The undesirably low money growth showed the lack of response in the market in spite of BoE's GBP 200b quantitative easing program. In addition, data also showed a net GBP 15.7b of public sector net borrowing in December, which is the higher on record in that month since 1993.

Above said resistance at 0.9147 would suggest low has possibly been formed but only break of 0.9175 (previous support turned resistance) would confirm low has been formed, then headway to 0.9230/40 would follow.

Trade Idea: EUR/JPY - Stand Aside Although the single currency recovered after falling to 128.40 yesterday, as price has retreated again after meeting renewed selling at 129.31 today, suggesting the decline from 134.37 may extend marginal weakness towards 128.00, however, as broad outlook remains consolidative, reckon support at 127.32 should remain intact, bring another rally later.
