Forex Flash: USD/Asua should head lower - RBS
RBS strategist Drew Brick thinks the market is getting ahead of itself; "there is little to suggest that we will get anything other than a continuation of easy money policies from the globe’s major central banks for so time to come."
Mr. Brick adds: "Volatility must come down for the carry trade to resume, but come down it will – as it must in the face of continuous liquidity injections. The resumption of the search for yield should then take USD/Asia lower; and receiving of the regions’ already rich curves can resume. The hangover will be worse, but it’s not time to end the liquidity-fuelled yield-chasing."
