      AUD jobs numbers and quarterly monetary policy statement are out over the next 2 days - markets may be less likely to lean too hard one way or the other ahead of data releases.

      If Stevens has anything more substantial to roll out in his quest for a lower AUD it could come w/Friday's quarterly monetary policy statement (1:30am GMT August 8).

      That's what I'm saying, though: Stevens can try to jawbone again if he likes, but the market is under no obligation to do his bidding, and in fact may call his bluff. He wants a weak AUD for his mining industry but he also doesn't want housing ...

      A shocker? What could Stevens do at this point that would really whack the AUD/USD? He's not going to cut. The market already knows he doesn't like the AUD/USD where it is. He has already essentially said "we are not hiking for a good long while ...

      It will be interesting to see if Stevens whines about the exchange rate again. The July 2014 jawboning had less impact than last December's attempt. The market could well be getting less sensitive to him complaining about how it is not carrying his ...

      The answer to the question of life, the universe, and everything is not actually "42". It's "buy more EUR". The EUR has magical powers. It will never go down. Evar. Because it's the EUR, and it's magic.

      Market reaction to a hike next week can still be a sell on the news if RBNZ signals a pause on further hikes. It's all about what is priced in and what is not priced in.

      Last major quake I can remember for NZ was last August, and the NZD dropped. But, Wheeler was also speaking the next market day on how the NZD was overvalued and they had to watch out for housing bubbles.

      While I wish no one harm, overleveraged bulls should remember, against the backdrop of this to-be-proven breakout to new technical levels on NU, that NZ does have bad earthquakes from time to time.

      An honest and admittedly naive question, as I haven't studied the issue, but: If I recall correctly, Stevens has acknowledged that the Aussie mining boom is over. So I'm not clear on why he seems so interested in manipulating the AUD back down, just ...
