2010/10/06 17:33DJ Bundesbank Official: Forex Measures 'Problematic' - Paper
FRANKFURT -A senior German central bank official joined the growing chorus of voices warning against international currency manipulation Wednesday. In an interview with the weekly newspaper Die Zeit, Alexander Dombret, head of the Deutsche Bundesbank's international affairs department, said his bank considered it 'problematic' to try to achieve gains in competitiveness by influencing the exchange rate. His comments were published in an advance release, as the euro hit an eight-month high against the dollar. At 0825 GMT, the euro was trading at $1.3862, a rise of almost half a cent from the European close Tuesday. Dombret's comments follow European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet's criticism of China's exchange-rate policy after a meeting with Prime Minister Wen Jiabao earlier this week. Trichet had said that 'the evolution in terms of the [renminbi's] effective exchange rate, also vis-a-vis the euro, was not exactly what we would have hoped ourselves,' and added that greater exchange flexibility 'is very, very much in China's interest.' Dombret himself has no vote on the ECB's governing council. However, the Bundesbank represents the country arguably the most exposed to swings in the euro's exchange rate, given the high importance of exports to Germany's economic model. Website: www.zeit.de

TOKYO -Japan's ruling party unveiled the final version of its economic stimulus plan Wednesday, calling for more than Y4.8 trillion in spending in an effort to boost the nation's flagging economic recovery. The Democratic Party of Japan also recommended that Prime Minister Naoto Kan's government set up a national investment fund taking advantage of the country's vast currency reserves, but did not elaborate on what kinds of investments the fund would make. The DPJ will submit the proposal to the government later in the day, and the government is expected to design its stimulus package based on the party's recommendations in the coming days. Many expect the Kan administration will take on most of the party's proposals given the dominance of DPJ lawmakers in the cabinet, but some observers question whether the government will adopt the proposal for a national investment fund. The government is expected to officially approve the stimulus package Friday and then submit a supplementary budget to Parliament to secure the funds needed to implement the measures. The DPJ's proposal reflects the stepped-up cooperation between the government and the Bank of Japan to blunt the adverse effects of the rising yen and deflation on the nation's economy. Japan's policy moves also are part of the trend among advanced economies, many of which are boosting spending and easing monetary policy in efforts to rejuvenate their stagnating economies.

2010/10/06 15:36DJ Long-Term JGBs Rise Sharply On BOJ's Aggressive Easing Steps
TOKYO -Long-term Japanese government bonds rose sharply on Wednesday, with the key 10-year JGB yield sinking to a seven-year low, as the Bank of Japan's aggressive monetary easing continued to prompt investors to buy cash bonds. The BOJ said in a statement released on Tuesday that the central bank will maintain its zero interest rate policy until "price stability is in sight."Given that Japan's consumer prices have fallen for 18 straight months and deflation shows no signs of ending, demand for long-term JGBs could grow further, analysts say. "Many investors believe that it will take a long time before consumer prices start to rise in Japan and that the BOJ will be forced to keep its very accommodative policy stance," said Takeshi Minami, chief economist at Norinchukin Research Institute. "Under such circumstances, investors will likely remain eager to buy long-term JGBs for an extended period and the yields could extend declines," he added. As of 0600 GMT, the benchmark 10-year yield was down 7.5 basis points to 0.835%, after briefly sliding to 0.820%, its lowest level since July 2003. Lead December JGB futures ended at 144.15, up 0.48. The 20-year yield dropped 4.5 basis points to 1.630%. The BOJ's policy board on Tuesday announced a "comprehensive monetary easing." The board cut its policy target rate to a range of 0.0%.1%, from 0.1% previously, and also launched a Y5 trillion fund to buy various financial assets, including government bonds and commercial paper. Considering that such central bank's moves were regarded as "drastic," Norinchukin's Minami expects the 10-year JGB yield to fall to as low as 0.7% in the near term. Other analysts also say longer-dated JGB yields could continue decreasing as the yen remains strong despite the BOJ's action. The yen should rise further against the dollar as long as speculation persists that the Federal Reserve will loosen monetary policy soon, which could raise the possibility of the BOJ taking additional monetary easing again, said Tetsuya Miura, chief market analyst at Mizuho Securities. On Thursday, Japan's Ministry of Finance is slated to sell Y2.2 trillion worth of 10-year notes with an expected coupon of 0.8% or 0.9%. Traders say the tender could go smoothly as expectations grow that the 10-year JGB yield will keep falling.
2010/10/06 15:29DJ PRECIOUS METALS: Gold Closes In On $1,350 As Asia Follows Up
SINGAPORE -Gold and silver hit new highs in Asia Wednesday as previously cautious Asian participants finally rejoined the bandwagon, spurred by gains made overnight, and a widespread conviction that central banks aren't about to turn off the liquidity spigot. Spot gold hit a new record high of $1,349.80 a troy ounce, before easing back to $1,346.40 at 0615 GMT, up $5.80 since the New York close. Tocom August 2011 gold was at Y3,605/oz, up Y52. Silver again outperformed, breaking the $23 barrier to hit a fresh 30-year high. It was at $22.96/oz, up 9 cents. 'Silver has more upside risk. $25 seems a natural target as this is half way to the $50 record from 1980,' said a Tokyo-based trader. The focus now turns to the two-day Bank of England meeting which concludes Thursday; some in the market anticipate it will follow Japan's lead leading to further monetary easing measures. This feeling has been encouraged by recent dovish comments from Bank of England policy committee members Bean and Posen, but some other members of the committee are believed to be less convinced. Morgan Stanley raised its gold price forecast Wednesday, with the base case rising to average $1,315/oz in 2011 from $1,150, and the bull case forecast pegged at $1,512 for 2011. 'The potential for additional quantitative easing and the likelihood of continued fiat currency weakness bolsters our desire to own gold, despite prices already trading at record highs,' it said in a note. Platinum group metals lagged initially before spot platinum finally broke $1,700 for the first time since May. At 0615 GMT it was trading at $1,703/oz, up $12. Spot palladium was at $578/oz, up $1 and closing in on its March 2008 high of $592.50, although it's still a long way from the $1,100/oz hit in 2001.

TOKYO -Dollar/yen options rose in Tokyo Wednesday as the underlying exchange rate inched closer to a 15-year low marked just before the Japanese authorities intervened in the market Sept. 15 to stem the yen's rise.Benchmark volatilities implied by one-month at-the-money options rose to 10.85%/11.55% in Tokyo from 10.80%/11.50% Tuesday in New York.The greenback's fall against the yen increases demand for downside hedges.An options dealer at a major brokerage in Tokyo said, however, volatilities are unlikely to rise further as long as the U.S. unit stays above Y83.00, as most players have already hedged for risks around current levels.The dealer added that volatilities may rise to 11.50% if the U.S. employment report for September from payroll giant Automatic Data Processing Inc.--set for released at 1215 GMT--turns out weaker than expected and the dollar falls below Y82.50.Market players look to the data for indications of how U.S. non-farm payroll data for September, also set for release Friday, will come out.Weaker-than-expected results will add to speculation that the U.S. Fed will soon take bold quantitative easing measures, contributing to the dollar's weakness.The median forecast of economists polled by is for the ADP report to show 20,000 private jobs added, versus 10,000 jobs lost in August.

'Japan's economy still shows signs of a moderate recovery, but the pace of recovery is slowing down,' the central bank said in its monthly economic report released Wednesday. The BOJ has said Japan's economy shows signs of a moderate recovery since upgrading its assessment in May. On Tuesday, the BOJ's policy board announced a 'comprehensive monetary easing.' The board cut its policy target rate to a range of 0.0%.1%, from 0.1% previously, and said rates would remain virtually at zero until prices begin to overcome deflationary pressure. The BOJ also launched a Y5 trillion fund to buy various financial assets, including government bonds and commercial paper.

The deal would have produced estimated savings of $10 billion and Rio, which has the bigger Pilbara operation, would have earned $5.8 billion from BHP to equalize their holding, The Times said.Newspaper Web site: http://thetimes.co.uk-; dennis.baker@dowjones.com

Wilmers had joined the board in 2003, when the Dublin-based lender acquired a stake in his Buffalo, N.Y., bank that now stands at about 22.5%.Michael Zabel, a spokesman for M&T, told Bloomberg he couldn't comment, as did Alan Kelly, general manager of corporate services at Allied Irish.Allied Irish has been considering options for the M&T stake and other assets to raise money as its finances deteriorated. Ireland's government said last week it would take majority ownership of the bank, its second bailout of the lender. Finance Minister Brian Lenihan said the bank will seek to raise EUR5.4 billion ($7.3 billion) in a November stock sale.Selling the stake to institutional holders could present an obstacle to a potential merger of M&T and Banco Santander SA's U.S. banking business. The Spanish bank and M&T have had intermittent talks this year about a combination, other sources with knowledge of those discussions said.Full story at http://www.bloomberg.com/news/print/2010-105/allied-irish-is-said-to-near-announcement-on-m-t-stake-sale.html

It also said Rio's chairman Jan du Plessis told other board directors that he didn't think BHP would object to Rio's calling an end to the deal.The proposed joint venture, which follows BHP's unsuccessful bid to take over Rio in 2008, has been expected to meet opposition from regulators in Europe and China concerned about the effect the deal would have had on world steel prices.
