The USD is broadly weaker in a stop-loss frenzy of selling, led by the EUR with stops above 1.3080 and above 1.3100 and higher triggered in the surge this afternoon with a high of 1.3141 traded. Stops were triggered on Cable as well with a high of 1.4973 seen as stops above 1.4880 and 1.4960 were triggered. Stops in USD-CHF were also triggered on the move down, with dealers reporting that thin dealings exacerbated the move. No fresh news was attributed to the broad USD decline but as noted yesterday on these pages, a sense of stability is emerging with the three day bounce in the Baltic Dry Index and some recovery in Asian emerging currencies and more stable stocks.
