Stocks retraced any gains with little on the economic front to support the bull markets. The Dollar remained an attractive target with the EUR 1.3370 and the GBP 1.6815.

Economic developments were few and far between and the Geo-political concerns dissipated allowing some confidence to return. The Russians bide their time while awaiting the opportunity for further developments globally to shadow their humanitarian invasion.

The NZD remained bid with the interest rate differential remaining attractive around 0.8440. Australian business confidence rose as did house prices but this did little to assist the currency with the AUD 0.9275.
