EUROPE 
Brexit FAQNordea
We have prepared answers to 11 questions we frequently get on Brexit. We continue to think that the UK will remain in the EU. In our view, Brexit would mean a lasting drag on UK economic growth in both the short and long term. We would expect increased volatility but not a financial crisis. Brexit would be GBP-negative in the short term, but we doubt that the effect will last longer than a week or so, and in the longer run, the EUR might be the loser.

FX UpdateTF
The Fed has established a clearly dovish stance on the pace of future rate hikes. But the market has taken this to an extreme as less than 1 rate hike is priced in for the next 12 months. This makes strong upside surprises in today’s key US data releases the most interesting scenario to test the mettle of the USD bears.

From the FloorTF
