G7 calls for an emergency conference call to discuss the EU crisis
The Queens Jubilee finds UK markets closed for a four day holiday, rumors of a master plan for Europe and significant central bank risk with ECB, BoE, BoC and testimony by Chair Bernanke later this week are the themes that are driving markets. Friday’s rally in gold speaks volumes about how the weak US employment report has triggered expectations for the Fed to announce QE3. On Monday the USD weakened as the euro climbed. It was a day thin on eco data and the news flow was light also. The main events were Spain, Italy and Greece. S&P made book on a Greek exit them a 1-3 chance of leaving the euro.
The G7 Finance Ministers have agreed to hold an emergency conference call to discuss the eurozone crisis, in particular Spain.
The EU leadership seems to be drawing lines in the sand, as Merkel refuses to accept eurobonds or joint debt without fiscal control. There will be a battle brewing here.
In a surprise move a director from the PBOC said that China would assist in buying euro debt to help ease the crisis.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Watch for the USDJPY to grind even lower toward its last support areas just above 78.00, but important support is already slightly above these levels at the 200-day moving average around 78.60 and the chart is also showing so-called “triple divergence”, in which a third new low has been set while a momentum indicator like the MACD continues to creep higher at each new low. This suggests a consolidation could be in order in the nearest term.
