American focus: the euro is under pressure.

The euro fell from an almost three- month high versus the dollar as Germany ruled out allowing the European Financial Stability Facility to fund bond buybacks, reviving concern the region’s sovereign-debt crisis may worsen.


The shared currency weakened for the first time in three days against the greenback after Ireland’s credit rating was cut by Standard & Poor’s. The pound rose against the dollar for a third day as a Bank of England policy maker said borrowing costs should be increased. Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak sought to reclaim Cairo’s streets from protesters.

“There seems to be an element of risk-off, especially for euro,” said Amelia Bourdeau, a currency strategist in Stamford, Connecticut, at UBS AG. “It’s combination of the S&P downgrade to Ireland, mixed comments on the EFSF coming out of Germany and the continued troubles in Egypt.”

The euro fell 0.4 percent against the dollar to $1.3777 at 11:55 a.m. in New York. Earlier it rose to $1.3862, the highest level since Nov. 9. Against the yen, the shared currency rose 0.2 percent to 112.68 per euro after rising earlier as much as 0.4 percent.

The rating cut to A- from A and negative credit outlook on Ireland reflects “our view of the uncertainties surrounding the size of Ireland’s additional capital needs for its largely state-owned financial sector,” S&P said.

Dow +10.93 at 12051.09, Nasdaq +2.14 at 2753.33, S&P -2.18 at 1305.41
The stock market's drift today has left many uninspired and resulted in moderate participation. In turn, fewer than 600 million shares have traded hands on the NYSE, so far, with only 90 minutes remaining before the toll of the closing bell. Though today's trading has been unexciting, it allows for gains in the prior session to be consolidated. The S&P 500 surged 1.8% yesterday for its strongest single-session surge in two months. Additionally, the move took stocks above key psychological levels that had not been seen since mid-2008.

Dow +4.88 at 12045.04, Nasdaq +0.28 at 2751.47, S&P -2.59 at 1305.00
A lackluster follow up to the prior session's surge has left the major equity averages to trade in mixed fashion all session. Yesterday the stock market rode a strong bid to its best level in more than two years, but many broad market participants have opted to take a bit of a breather today. That said, there hasn't been any concerted effort to take profits. Only a slightly positive response was made to the latest ADP Employment Change, which indicated that 187,000 private payrolls were added in January. The report had little lasting effect, though. Earnings have also failed to inspire action in the broad market. Among the more widely held names, Whirlpool (WHR 82.69, -2.73) and AFLAC (AFL 57.13, -1.40) both came short of the consensus earnings estimate, but Boston Scientific (BSX 6.77, -0.36) and Time Warner (TWX 34.99, +2.68) both beat on the bottom line. Time Warner complemented its report with news of an 11% dividend increase. Electronic Arts (ERTS 17.90, +2.28) posted its own upside earnings surprise and added to its repurchase plan. Its shares have surged in response. That has helped prop up the tech sector, which is presently up 0.3%. Energy stocks make up the only other sector to sport a gain. They are up 0.2%, even though oil prices are now in the red after a strong start. Oil prices are currently down 0.6% to $90.25 per barrel. The dollar has turned higher after it had set a two-month low in the prior session. It is currently up 0.3% against a collection of competing currencies. Despite the lackluster action among stocks today, Treasuries have turned lower. That has the yield on the benchmark 10-year Note creeping closer to 3.50%, which was last touched in mid-December.
18:10
US OUTLOOK: RBC, commenting on Fed's Sr Loan Officer survey, says it showed 5.2% of banks tightened lending standards on mortgages in 1Q and that is bad news for housing.
Consumers also were weak: "demand for mortgages fell for a net 20% of banks, taking our rolling sum for this metric to a new record low.' One reason for caution is 8m homes in default or foreclosure, RBC says.

Dow +1.97 at 12042.13, Nasdaq +4.60 at 2755.79, S&P -2.51 at 1305.49
The major equity averages remain mixed as financials (-0.6%) weigh on the S&P 500 and tech issues (+0.4%) help lift the Nasdaq. Meanwhile, the Dow remains mired near the neutral line. Despite the generally lackluster action among stocks, Treasuries have failed to sustain any kind of a gain. The benchmark 10-year Note had traded with a lower yield earlier this morning, but recent selling has sent the Note to a session low and its yield to a session high of about 3.49%.

Asian session: dollar remains under pressure
The euro touched a three-month high against the dollar on speculation European Central Bank policy makers meeting tomorrow will say they are concerned about quickening inflation.
European producer prices rose 5.2% in December from a year earlier, according to survey before today’s report. Inflation in the euro region accelerated to a 2.4% annual rate in January, the statistics office said in a preliminary estimate on Jan. 31.
“A very hawkish ECB is priced in at this point and U.S. dollar sentiment has certainly waned,” said Sean Callow, a senior currency strategist at Westpac Banking Corp. in Sydney. “There’s enough confidence in the general risk-on move that it’s undermining the U.S. dollar safe-haven role.”
The yen fell against all its major counterparts as a gain in Asian stocks and signs global growth is accelerating cut demand for the safety of Japan’s currency.
The yen dropped for a third day versus the euro before a European report that economists said will show producer-price inflation accelerated in the region to the fastest since 2008.
Pound rose as BOE Dep Gov Bean said BOE would have to hike rates if the recent spike in oil prices persisted and the MPC concluded inflation was becoming embedded.

The Bank of England will raise its 0.5% main rate three times this year to prevent a surge in consumer prices from becoming entrenched, according to the National Institute for Economic and Social Research.

“The market is going with the idea that the chances of a Bank of England rate hike are increasing,” Forex.com’s Dolan said. “The move is not done yet. The pound is not giving back very much.”
Australia’s dollar rose to a level stronger than parity with the greenback for the first time in three days as the Reserve Bank of Australia said the global economy looks strong and there are signs of rising private investment in the nation amid higher commodity prices.
