Monetary policy continues to shape the major trends and swells of volatility in FX market. Will this important fundamental theme once again take the reins of risk-sensitive assets like the S&P 500 at this critical market phase? In the past week, the central bank influences from the Fed, ECB, BoJ, SNB, PBoC, RBA, BoC and RBNZ have led to significant moves among the FX majors. Throwing its weight into the mix, the BoE battered the Pound Thursday with a downgraded view that doused one of the market's most remarkable (hawkish) standings.
