Building products maker Boral is cutting 700 jobs as part of a company-wide restructure aimed at reducing costs and increasing its competitiveness.
The company says it will make 700 redundancies from all levels of its business - from executive level down to its manufacturing businesses.


"The restructure I am announcing today will transform the group into an organisation that is more responsive to the realities of a cyclical marketplace and one that remains competitive not just during the cycle highs but when conditions are challenging, as they have been for the past few years," chief executive Mike Kane said in a statement on Wednesday.

Long EUR? i dont believe it ... with all the crisis is going on around the world? my short on AUD just got stopped out.
Don't shoot the messenger Numbers don't lie. What is a suprise, is that it took all the way from the Draghi ("whatever it takes") low or 1200 points for the market to swing from short to long.

I post this because it relates to the AUD... If this channel evenuates in the NZD/CHF that spells extreme weakness in the Kiwi and Aussie - especially if the CHF keeps weakening....

i dont really follow CHF,
does their central bank weaken it on purpose or what?

so CHF weakens means weaker NZD and AUD ?

Sorry, big subject and this is wrong thread for it
(but I do recomend you get up to speed with it because the resultant flows from what they've been doing have implications for all the other currencies we trade)

thanks,
heard about the news last week but i wasnt paying too much attention to it.
if all central banks try to weaken their currencies, then wouldnt it be where it was originally??

the question is, who is stronger to weaken more..
obviously RBA is going to be a loser, mean stronger AUD??

Aud/usd @ 1.0560

Dlr/Yen weakening seems to have forced momentum out of AUD/USD.

Im getting the impression that intraday market long probably leaning on a few buy orders as stops.

Test 1.0500 could be on the cards later.

In H4 time frame by ab=cd pattern being formed and time period being fulfilled we are observing a decline in the price. we expect seeing the price moving down to the uptrend line at 1.0470 area if the bears pressure comes in.

AUD/USD @1.0571

AUD bounced off the low of 1.0527 as demand still evident and we are back where we started from yesterday.

Unemployment out today.

Economic data has been negative of late except unemployment and I don't expect any miraculous turn arounds.

Lets see what doosie they come out with today.

The question remains will the number be good enough for it to take out 1.0600 the major pivot or will 1.05-1.06 contain?

Good luck

Iron ore extended its decline, posting its biggest daily drop in 14 months on Wednesday, on uncertainty over steel demand from top consumer China which curbed appetite for the steel ingredient.

Iron ore with 62 per cent iron content, the industry benchmark, fell $US7.50 a tonne, its biggest daily drop since November 2011, to $US145.40 a tonne, according to data provider Steel Index.


This represented a 4.9 per cent daily drop for iron ore, which reached a 15-month peak a week ago after a one-month rally which pushed its value up 40 per cent.
