Deutsche going all-in with “this time is different”, saying sell sterling vs a basket of EUR, USD, JPY, and CHF
Do remember some ago some NYC Economist labeled the UK as a new emerging market.
Yet, most forget the heritage of the actual UKs problem. What was that huge abnormal QE doing there at BOE.
There are limits to things, to theories, to economic models et all.
There are breakevens here and there, no matter how resilient they want to show up.

Suspicion is we are witnessing sort of Neo-Colonial Era 2.0
But this time will be different, as It ever was.

Markets on hold awaiting the US jobs report in 3+ hours
GS and Citi calling for a weaker report …
But not showing up in bonds, where yields have edged higher
To keep it simple, watch big figures to guide the respective tones post-data
EURUSD 1.03
USDJPY 158** (traded 4 days in a row)
GBPUSD 1.23
USDCAD 1.44
AUDUSD .62**
**More significant big figures than the others

Tomorrow I shall be sober – French edition
In our lead story this morning, we write about a budget compromise in France – one that mostly ignores the fiscal trajectory agreed with the EU – the new stability is already dead on arrival; we also have stories on the logical fallacies behind Friedrich Merz’ economic strategy; on the fall of demand for electric cars in Germany; on the high degree of interconnectedness in the global gas markets; on Scholz’ veto of arms deliveries to Ukraine, and, below, on what appears to be an empty threat.

Friday’s jobs report could present a mixed view of the labor market. Here’s what to expect

While most (if not all) retail traders do not trade off monthly charts, it pays to keep an eye on them for the major trends. Only those with deep pockets or those who do not use leverage can ignore the noise and have the staying power to trade off these longer term charts.
XAUUSD – Gold Daily
Supports : 2660.00, 2640.00 & 2620.00
Resistances : 2680.00, 2695.00 & 2735.00
As proven time and time again , my “Historical” trend lines and angles are working perfectly.
But what does it mean ???
Well, if Gold manages to go over 2735.00 in coming days, we should be seeing new Rally in which case Target is in 3.000 area.
But if not, it is going to be a prolonged correction, lading all the way to 2320.00
EURUSD Daily
Downtrend is intact – so far so good.
Only thing that bothers me right now is a lack of a new low today – and it is easy to blame it on President Carters funeral ( he left us way too early…) , but I still don’t like it.
You might think that I am trying to find a needle in a haystack , but I know exactly what am I saying : Patterns are never wrong , and by current one we should see another test Up tomorrow – so be aware of that possibility!
Resistances : 1.03250, 1.03450 & 1.03850
Supports : 1.02850, 1.02500 & 1.02250
Why is Crypto market in Red today?
Reasons are many, but one obvious jumps out – Overbought – Correction is not only necessary, but underway….
So let’s see how The Top Coin – Bitcoin looks on the daily chart
Fact that Upward Trend is broken cannot be denied, but for Bitcoin to continue Down is more important how it is going to close tonight – below that trend line or above it.
Be aware that Upward Angle is lost, and it suggest more losses to come.
In my opinion, for BTC to regain strength and be able to make renewed attempts Up , it must not lose 87.350.00.
As long as it manages to stay within the Upper Channel, it will be able to make new rally.

US500 4 HOUR CHART – NO CHANGE
No change from yesterday except we are one day closer to the Dec jobs report.
to prevent another run at 5800, 5862 needs to hold…. 5862 was tested and held dead on… yet another example of the power of The Amazing Trader_
Otherwise, no change…while within 5800-6000, look for 5900 to set the tone but needs 5917+ to negate the downside risk
The cost of French debt reaches new heights
The rate reached 3.4% and the risk premium continued to widen close to 90 basis points and move closer to Italy’s. This is a movement that is part of a general context of rising long-term rates.
It’s a movement that won’t simplify the government’s fiscal equation. The yield of the ten-year French sovereign bond reached 3.40% in the morning on Thursday, January 9 – highest since 2011 – before returning to 3.38%. The yield has increased by 20 basis points since the beginning of the year.

Bankruptness: the EPP time bomb
With a bleak economic context, some small businesses find it more difficult to repay their state-guaranteed loans. This will fuel the 2025 defaults, which are expected to peak.
66.422. This is the number of company failures in France in 2024. An increase of 28% compared to the pre-Covid period, according to BPCE figures The Observatory published on Wednesday.
The State-guaranteed lending scheme helped companies, the majority of which were SMEs and SMEs, to hold the shock during the COVID-19 pandemic.
