Market Reviews of the Previous Day:
During NY session on 5 August, major currencies diversified. The foreign exchange market basically continued the previous technical trend. There will still be many uncertainties in the future. The recent wide range oscillation and fluctuation maintained.
The growth of the July non-farm payroll was higher than the market expectation. It released some of the tension in the market. However, the rating agency Standard & Poor's downgraded the U.S. credit rating due to the concerns of the U.S. budget deficit and the growing debts. In addition, for the purchase of government bonds in Italy and Spain, the European Central Banks have reached a provisional agreement on the condition that two countries must make commitments of the economic reform.
Market investors concerned about the Fed's monetary policy meeting next week.
