"When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece." - John Ruskin
FOREX MARKET
The greenback dropped to six-week low against the euro on back of Fed's governor testimony to congressional committees,
as Bernanke underlined that inflationary pressures would be easing down. Therefore, the euro eroded the strong resistance
zone at 1.3100 level, rallying up to 1.3150 zone in early Thursday trading. Later, after a bunch of negative data for the US
economy, showing massive outflows of funds from US and Industrial Production decelerated in January, determined further
weakening of the dollar until 1.3170 level. On February 16th, the EUR/USD is being traded in the 1.3120-1.3140 zone, as
the market eyes new figures from US later, on Housing market and Producer Price Index.
On Thursday, the domestic currency opened at 3.3780 level and strengthened until 3.3700 zone. The rally of the RON could
not go any further and determined a slight correction to the upwards until 3.3800 zone.
On February 16th, the single currency was quoted at 3.3780 at the beginning of trading session. Shortly after, sustained
selling orders pushed the pair lower until 3.3700 zone where the EUR/RON reversed its move to 3.3750 level amid silent
domestic trading. We continue to believe that RON still has strong appreciation potential, as the yield differentials remained
high as compared to its regional peers.
MONEY MARKET
On February 16th, the overnight interest rates increased slightly until 4/5% zone, due to the three-month certificate of
deposit auction held by NBR yesterday. The National Bank drained RON 3bln from the interbank market at the average
yield of 6.93%, while the maximum accepted yield reached 7.47%.
