Daily FX Comment Marc Chandler
It is Not All About U.S. Jobs

Daily ShotTF
Financial institutions in Europe are under pressure and Germany's biggest bank Deutsche Bank is in deeper trouble than most. Elsewhere the strength in the EUR and weakness in the USD are important factors for many industries and markets. Rate hikes by major Central Banks as Federal Reserve and Bank of England become less and less likely.

FX UpdateTF
Today’s US January jobs report caps off a frantic week of trading and next week starts with a bang too as China is set to report its January FX reserves this weekend before New Year's celebrations in Asia wind down next week.

From the FloorTF
Weakness in USD is still a decisive factor across markets and will be so in the near future too. European financials though are suffering from other difficulties namely bad loans but in the short run they are worth looking at after a January meltdown.
