Summary
Suffice to say... even the cheerleaders on clown finance TV were able to acknowledge the overt intervention by various central banks across Sunday night and throughout Monday, in an attempt to stabilise currency markets.. and indirectly negate some of the equity weakness.
Clearly, the intervention worked to some extent.. but its not the sort of thing that can be done every day, right? Well, regardless... the fact the USD actually closed net lower will have surprised many.
It is taking long than I had expected, but the 92/90 zone is still viable.. before the hyper-ramp into the DXY 120s.
