CURRENCY TRADING SUMMARY – 19 NOVEMBER 2007 (00:30GMT)

· U.S. Dollar Trading (USD) was volatile once again on Friday triggered by comments made from the Central bank. (1)

Federal Reserve Governor Kroszner warned markets that policy makers may not look to lower borrowing costs further from the current 4.5% levels in order to weather a “rough patch” in the upcoming 12 months, despite major financial institutions having announced more than $50 billion worth of write downs in relation to sub-prime mortgages. (2)

In data news, Capital Net Flows failed to give the greenback any added support coming in well below expectations for the month of September at 26.4 billion, forecasts were at 70 billion. (3)

Production contracted over the month of October with Industrial output falling from 0.2% for the previous month (revised) to -0.5% (Forecasts: 0.1%) pushing the currency lower by 0.3% versus the Euro. (4)
