5 CURRENCIES Japanese yen appreciated 1.7% in the week against dollar to per dollar as dollar slid after an unexpected drop of 0.2% in US wages added to speculation the Federal Reserve won t be in any hurry to raise interest rates Euro posted a fourth weekly decline and dropped 1.3% in the week to per dollar as industrial output declined in Germany, France and Finland UK pound fell 1.1% in the week to per dollar as economic data added weight to speculation that the UK recovery is too frail for the Bank of England to raise interest rates this year Canadian dollar weakened for a seventh week by 0.7% to per US dollar after employment unexpectedly shrank last month as US payrolls grew more than forecast, adding to speculation the Canadian economy is falling behind that of its biggest trade partner India s rupee completed its biggest weekly gain since May as it appreciated 1.5% to per dollar on optimism that demand for emerging-market assets will be sustained amid the prospect of further euro-area stimulus The Czech koruna lost 1.65% in the week to close at per euro as growing deflation risk drove speculation the central bank will try to weaken the currency.

7 INTEREST RATES US treasuries rose in the best start to a year since 1998, driving the 10-year yield down 16.6 bps in the week to 1.94%, as tumbling oil prices lower the outlook for inflation and combine with record-low global sovereign yields to bolster demand for US debt The Bank of England left its key interest rate unchanged at a record-low 0.5 % on January 8 as a weakening euro area holds back UK economic growth and impedes rebalancing Spanish bonds fell the most relative to German bunds since 2013 on speculation that rates at almost record lows don t offer value amid concern ECB stimulus will fall short of traders estimates. 10-year yield rose 23bps in the week to 1.72% Germany-based Commerzbank AG said a glut of supply in the first weeks of 2015 may dent the appeal of periphery bonds relative to German bunds.
