Falling inflation expectations could allow Norges Bank to hike further
In the medium term, we observe that the EUR/NOK direction tends to follow relative consumer confidence between the Euro-area and Norway. In the current economic context, this indicator is linked to inflation pessimism, and the recent positive inflection in Norway could signal the end of FX losses. In a survey published this week, households in Norway now expect inflation at 4% in one year, from 6% one quarter ago.
Falling inflation expectations could allow Norges Bank to hike further, and importantly, the revival of consumer confidence could eventually help NOK to recover.

The Japanese yen soared overnight after Japan's Yomiuri reported that the BoJ is to review the side effects of its massive monetary easing at its policy meeting next week and may take additional steps to correct distortions in the yield curve, i.e there is a chance the BOJ will once again "surprise" the market with yet another Yield Curve Control tweak. JGB 10y has penetrated the 0.50% cap, reaching 0.568%. The USDJPY had tumbled as low as 128.66 from 132 yesterday, before bouncing modestly just above 129. Source: www.zerohedge.com, Bloomberg

#Samsung posts upbeat #earnings ! #stocks #trading #markets #Nasdaq #trending
Samsung reported better than expected revenue, signaling tech earnings may not be as bad as some feared about weakening demand and a rise in material costs. Investors are slowly shifting toward the view that the economic slow down may not be as painful as thoughts a few weeks earlier and there are increasing signs that inflation should ease in the medium term.
