Daily Economic Roundup - August 31, 2009
United States
Are you ready for an action-packed week? Word on the forex street is that breakouts are bound to happen this week. After ending on a mixed note against the majors last week, the USD could establish a clearer direction this time around. Bullish or bearish? Well, that depends on the bunch of economic data ahead!

Euro zone
The euro cried cncle to end the week, as it fell against the USD, JPY and GBP. The EURUSD closed the week at 1.4301, while the EUR lost against the GBP for the first time in 8 days. Will the EUR bounce back today? More...
Japan

Still, it managed to end last week on a slightly higher note. This week will be major for Australia given the high profile releases. See what's up! More...
New Zealand
The NZD fell on Friday, as we saw the USD rally across the board. The NZDUSD closed at .6837. The pair had been setting yearly highs in past weeks - is this the week we see it blow past the .6900 barrier? More...
Switzerland
Tired of consolidation? This week's economic reports from both Switzerland and the US could turn the volatility up a notch for the USDCHF. More...
