The markets are digesting the latest FOMC update where US interest rates are forecast to remain low through to 2022. This news has not helped the US$ but it has helped Gold and the tech heavy NASDAQ has closed above 10,000 for the first time. So, for now, US$ weakness remains the theme.
NB: recall I am away for the next few days so updates will be brief and few.
