EU Session Bullet Report – Stocks lifted from FOMC, USD weak

Stocks were lifted from FOMC minutes last night which indicated the confidence of the FED to start raising rates in December. All major indices closed above 1.5% on the day, however the USD was mixed ahead of the 100 level of the USD index. USDJPY rose to its highest in 3 months, while USDCHF rose to its strongest level in 10. EURUSD also recovered some losses of the past few days and rose above 1.07 after touching a new multi month low at 1.0613. Gold made some significant gains from 1065 to 1079 however it remains weak under 1080. The Sterling was unchanged throughout the day but was boosted during the Asian session to 1.53 ahead of the important UK Retail Sales report later today. Same picture for AUD and NZD, both currencies showing some recovery signs against USD.
