Emerging easing
19 January 2012, Simon Smith, FxPro
No great surprise to see Brazil cutting rates by 50bp overnight (taking key rates to 10.5%), given that the latest GDP figures show the economy having ground to a halt in the third quarter of last year. This should also be seen in the context of the more fragile global environment. The Brazilian real has been one of the best performing of the majors so far this year and was only minimally dented by yesterday’s easing.
IMF fund boost proposal helps euro
19 January 2012, Mark Deans, Moneycorp
Spending cuts imposed on Britain's police forces are, quite properly, subject to local interpretation and application. But there seems to be unanimous reluctance to economise on premium phone numbers. London's Metropolitan Police made more than 100,000 calls to the speaking clock, spending £250k of taxpayers' money.

19 January 2012, Mark Bolsom, Travelex
The US dollar and yen maintained their weaker tone on Wednesday after the International Monetary Fund announced its plan to raise up to $600b in order to help support debt-strapped eurozone nations. A successful bond auction in Portugal also raised hopes the European Central Bank’s emergency measures are already helping to normalise bond market activity.
Australian employment report looks dire, but details less so
19 January 2012, Andrew Robinson, Saxo Bank
Despite a dramatic Australian employment report, ranges in Asia for most currencies were controlled and steady.
