Into US session: Sterling recovers from GDP blip, Euro and Dollar firm too

Entering into US session, Sterling is trading as the strongest one for today so far. Weaker than expected UK GDP triggered very brief retreat in the Pound. And Sterling quickly find its footing on Brexit optimism again. At the time of writing, Euro is the second strongest as Italian yield drops for another day. The selling climax in Italian bonds could have passed the climax for the near, possibly until credit agency rating actions. Dollar trades mildly high as consolidative price actions extend. Yen is the weakest one as sentiments stabilized and turned mixed. Kiwi is the second weakest, followed by Loonie.

In Europe, CAC leads the way down by -0.71%, DAX is down -0.64% and FTSE is down -0.05%. Italian 10 year yield is dropping -0.0361 at 3.475. German 10 year bund yield is up 0.0049 at 0.556. German-Italian spread is no back below 300. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei rose 0.16%, Hong Kong HSI rose 0.08%, China Shanghai SSE rose 0.18%. But Singapore Strait Times dropped -1.11%. 10 year JGB yield dropped -0.0065 to 0.156, still way above BoJ’s allowed band of -0.1 to 0.1%.
