Financial forecasts: Going easy - October 2016 Nordea
Brexit repercussions have so far proven very limited but several uncertainties will keep risk appetite cautious for now. The case for easier policies remains strong for many central banks. On the tightening path, we expect the Fed to proceed more carefully, which will mean even less upside pressure for global yields. GBP should be close to bottoming, while oil prices will continue to rise gradually.

EM FX: Financial forecasts – October 2016Nordea
The road just ahead of us could be bumpy for EM FX. The calendar is loaded with external risks, such as the US elections and a December Fed hike, and domestic political risks are elevated in many countries. Moreover, EM FX correlations with risk perception benchmarks are very high. 2017 looks much brighter, though. We are gradually becoming more optimistic about Emerging Markets in general and EM FX in particular. We have made marginal changes to the forecasts for MXN, HUF and TRY.

Hysteresis and fiscal policy during the Global Crisis vox
Antonio Fatás, Lawrence Summers: Conventional wisdom on supply and demand suggests that demand shocks are cyclical or transitory, and that only technology shocks are responsible for trend changes. This column argues that cyclical events can have permanent effects on demand, and therefore GDP. It is time for policymakers to start considering the possibility of hysteresis seriously.

FX UpdateTF
Sterling managed a sharp rally overnight albeit one preceded by a steep selloff as May’s stance on parliamentary involvement in the Brexit process has softened. Elsewhere EURUSD has finally broken lower and is focusing on the 1.1000 area next.

From the FloorTF
Sterling was headed towards the 1.20 trapdoor overnight before prime minister Theresa May relented on her 'hard' Brexit stance but was her move reflective of a genuine shift in her stance or merely just tactical?
