BoE Asset Purchase Facility

The Asset Purchase Facility is the value of money that the BoE intends to create to buy financial assets from commercial banks and other private institutions. The reason for this action is to improve liquidity in the credit markets. This tool is also called Quantitative Easing. A change in stance over this figure may impact GBP significantly.

Market News

The EURUSD should have moved significantly today, according to the FX traders who are desperate for some volatility. With Nonfarm Payrolls coming in above all expectations you would have thought it was going to be a $ long day. Not a chance, as EURUSD fell initially when the news came out, it then gradually paired back losses (1.3865 at the time of writing).

While interest rates stay put at historic lows and Fed Chair Yellen's dovish overtures (apart from one blip...) remain the stage has been set for Treasury Yields to continue falling - this being a blow to any dollar appreciation in the near term and partly explains the EUR and GBP appreciation even while Europe is no 'bed of roses'.
