Ireland package finalized


Dollar bulls must be popping bottles of champagne at the moment considering what’s been happening since last week.

On Sunday, Eurozone finance ministers approved an 85bn pound financial rescue package for Ireland, although 17.5bn of it will come from Ireland’s sovereign wealth fund and other domestic cash resources.

The Euro got a boost this morning after the announcement and traded up to 1.3355, but this was short-lived and the Euro has come off since then.

The Aussie has been following the Euro lead, and has also released worse than expected data. The Q3 business inventories and company profits came in a lot worse.

Data Today:
UK net consumer credit – 7.30am GMT
UK mortgage approvals – 7.30am GMT
Eurozone consumer confidence – 10am GMT
Eurozone industrial confidence – 10am GMT
Eurozone service confidence – 10am GMT
Eurozone business climate indicator – 10am GMT
