Pretty much what I was expecting a week ago or so, EUR/GBP/CHF to weaken while AUD gets the bid.

{quote} I see risk off/on, as USD and JPY moving in tandem. CHF used to be the group as well until the EUR peg. Is that correct?
Thank you for your question. A brief explanation of what usually happens with Risk On or Risk Off. Any follow up questions will be appreciated.

At the moment the Dow is down as we all can see and Gold is up over $20.00 US.

Let us look at the US Bond Yields on the 2 Year US Bonds and the 10 Year US Bonds. I get my information live by watching CNBC.

The Yield on the 10 Year Us Bonds is just a touch over 3.00 at the moment. That IS down from earlier this morning. Why ?

As traders sold off the Dow and by traders I mean those with larger amounts of money which I would start as say $100,000 US.

They sell the Dow and get CASH then they need to put their money somewhere so they buy in this example $100,000 US Bonds of the 2 Year duration and they then get a Yield of 3.00 % as long as they PARK it there.

So to understand you start at the beginning of the Cycle. When we have Risk On then the US Bonds usually sell off and money goes to more risky assets and currencies.

Gold is a Wild Card and a subject onto its own. Usually when the US Dollar Index is UP Gold goes down however that is a myth since Gold is not at the moment a free trading asset because of the shorting of the Comex (Paper Market) by the Powers that be. Gold is the Enemy of the Fiat System.

That will end during 2014 because of the New Gold exchange in Singapore.

Thanks for your question and feel free to ask for any other information you may need and of course we have others that post here that can also answer your questions.

agreed my friend that I got excited and the fall is not that big for today but I think this fall can extend in days to come. GBP's move has puzzled me for sure. 1.66 to 1.6407

But doesn't it put the bond buyer at risk of losing money on the face value of the bond if the yield spikes up? I understand what you are saying, but I don't see how the risk on/off is directly related to the yields than to the currency and the loop back to affecting the RISK off/on mentality.

Thanks for the detail post though.

{quote} Good Morning The correlation holds most of the time and here is why. When there is Risk Off as we have at the moment with the Dow down over 75 at the moment USD/JPY is still considered a safe place to keep money so as it is purchased then USD/JPY goes down towards 100.00 and usually this weakens EUR/JPY and that in turn weakens in most cases EUR/USD.
So when a pair is purchased its value decreases? Very interesting, that!!

I apologize to you for not being more clear. We start with the Dow going down as it is now and probably will continue to do as now it is down 98.30

Whomever is a big player, investor, speculator or gambler just sells. Then the question for them where do I leave my money in the meantime where there is NO CHANCE of LOSS ? When they buy $100,000 US of the 10 Year US Bonds they cannot or should not LOSE their capital and they then earn at the moment 3% if they hold the US Bonds for as long as they hold it. hey could PARK it into the 30 Year US Bonds or even the 2 Year US Bonds however their Capital is SAFE.

As the money or CASH flows around it affects ALL the Asset Classes which include Gold, All Currencies, All Commodities and All Equity Markets.

Think this will go down and break through the 1.36200 barrier? Seems to be struggling there today.
