FTSE 100 Index Option


FTSE 100 Index,

What's Its Full Form


  • FTSE100 is a Major European Index.
  • The Full Form of FTSE 100 is Financial Times Stock Exchange 100 Index was launched in 1984.
  • It tracks the share price movements of the top 100 UK companies.
  • It is calculated every 15 seconds throughout the working dat from 08.00 to the end of the 16.30 closing auction and as such acts as a real time indicator of the direction of the U.K. stock market.


Options of FTSE 100 Index



FTSE 100 Index Options gives you the right but not the obligation to buy or sell the value of the FTSE 100 Index on or before a specific date.



There are two types of FTSE 100 Index Options - calls and puts.

  • The buyer of a call option acquires the right but not the obligation to buy the value of the index at a fixed price.
  • The buyer of the put options acquires the right but not the obligation to sell the value of the index at a fixed price.

The FTSE 100 Index has long been a barometer by which professional money managers and private investors measure portfolio performance.


Unlike futures contracts, the potential loss to the buyer of an option is limited to the initial price paid for the contract (the premium) regardless of the performance of the FTSE 100 Index. This helps you to control the amount of risk assumed.

Well!! This is the story of the FTSE100 origin.


Will be back with a new story as to why it is on the top of the Stock
Market..

Yen the Best Performer in this week


As we all know that the yen is the currency of the Japan, a country which is famous for Electronic Items. Well the currency is now performing brilliantly in the World Currency Market. There has been a tremendous and instant growth in the Japanese economy.

There are two important reasons for the growth and they are:

  • The economy grew to 4.8% in the fourth quarter, making it a fastest growth in almost 3 years.
  • And in addition to that the Yen has headed for the biggest weekly gain against the U.S D, the Dollar.

This progress of the Japan has prompted the Bank of Japan to re-think on its interest rates and there evolved a speculation that the Bank of Japan will review its interest rates by raising in the next week. It is expected that the Central Bank will probably increase the key of lending rate to 0.5 percent from 0.25 per cent. The Yen has been the best performer in the Asia this week.

The yen traded at 119.35 from 119.27 against the dollar yesterday and it against the Euro, it traded to 156.76 from 156.74. The yen may climb to 119.00 against the dollar and 156.50 per Euro today.

My comments:

In my opinion, the yen which was weak though in the past week, has now recovered from its losses and is in good position now. And I think it will be in the same position in the coming days too.

Please friends!! Do Comment in the comment box which is one click away. I would be happy if I know whether my friends liked my article or not, if not why u didn’t? So that next time I will prepare the article to receive your appreciations.

Expectations take the Japanese Economy top



Hi Friends!!


Seems Japan has relieved from the G7 meeting and is relax now. In the Past few days everybody were worried about the yen and its status. The Yen was very weak in the past and the Japanese Government was so worried thinking that if it continues its weakness it may become a hot topic in the G7 Meeting, but the G7 nations were silent and didn't lay any burden on the Yen which was already weak.

But now seems Yen has realized its position and is doing well in the Currency Market.

Herez the Good News!!!

Above all else, there is some good news for the Japanese people and the whole world as well. There are expectations that the Bank of Japan is going to raise its interest rates. This possibility occurred when the fourth quarter Japan’s GDP (Gross Domestic Product) figures showed that Japanese economy grew at very fastest pace in just about three years.

Well the Japanese economy in the last year 2006 from October to December grew by 1.2%. Now it has risen by 4.8% growth making it a highest in virtually three years.

Since everybody is happy listening to this news!! The Yen was also happy and why it shouldn’t. The Yen responded brightly to the data and immediately rose to Y119 against the dollar and Y157.74 against the Euro. Apart from the currency, we have seen the commodities also rising. The data sent the Nikkei 225 to seven-year high.

My Comment

In my opinion, only if expectations show a good deal of extreme growth, what a tremendous growth we can see if the expectations turns out to be true .Lets hopes that this expectations turns out to be real.

Please Comment

I know you also want to comment. The Comment Box is only one Click Away. Please do comment on my article as to why you like it and why you don’t, Please.

Dow Jones did a Fantastic Job


The Dow Jones Industrial Average had its biggest rally yesterday and it turned out to be biggest rally of this year too. This has happened because the takeover speculation that the mining shares and General Motors jumped after an analyst upgrade. The General Motors which is the world’s largest automaker has suddenly climbed to an 18-month high against the Dow Jones making it a leading one.

The Dow industrials rose 0.8 percent, to 12,654.85, the best performance since Dec. 27. The S&P 500 added 0.8 percent, to 1444.26, with all 10 of its industry groups posting gains. The NASDAQ Composite Index advanced 0.4 percent, to 2459.88.

In my opinion Dow Jones had done an amazing job for the U.S stock market…Let hope for the same stability in future too.

U.S Stocks fall-down



The U.S stocks are declining very worse since December’2006 as the oil prices are lower and the homeowner defaults are rising at a very rapid speed. The Crude oil traded below $58 a barrel. It is said that the Energy companies will make up 9.7% of the S & P 500 by value. It is expected that there will be 5 to 6% of growth in the rate in earnings on the S&P 500 and as expected it is growing. But there has a been a spectacular slowdown from the last year. It may cause the stock market to not to have good returns this year.

The S&P 500 dropped 0.3 percent, to 1433.37 after slumping 0.7 percent last week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.2 percent, to 12,552.55. The NASDAQ Composite Index slipped 0.4 percent, to 2450.38. All three benchmarks moved back for a third day. NASDAQ dropped $2.10 to $35.10. The second-largest U.S. equity market's hostile bid for London Stock Exchange Plc failed for the second time in almost a year.

In my opinion, the stock market is not stable. We don’t know what will happen in the next moment. So, it’s always to be on safe side by not giving our opinions on the stock market.

G7 was silent against the Japanese Yen


The Group of Seven Industrial nations who were together for the G7 meeting in Essen, Germany couple of days back relieved the tensed Yen. They didn’t mention that the Japanese currency is going to be a threat to the global economy. But the Yen fell to a record low against the Euro. It fell to 158.75 per Euro on the first day of the G7 meet (Feb 9th). The Yen is said to be remain weak because as Japanese huge interest rate disadvantage should resume to foster the Japan’s capital outflows.

Fallbacks

The Yen traded nearly a four-year low against the dollar and it also dropped against the New Zealand dollar and the British Pound. The Yen also lost ground against the dollar. The Yen may move between 118.50 to 123 per dollar for the rest of this month.

Today is Public Holiday in Japan

It is said that the trading will be about 30 to 40 percent below average owing to public holiday in Japan. The carry trade is increasing day by day against the yen because of only one reason that is the weakness of the Yen. Well, if the yen recovers and makes sure that it’s not the low-yielding currency, then the carry trades may come to an end.

In my opinion –all’s well that ends well. The G7 meet came to an end without owing any burden to the Yen, Now it’s the Yen’s duty to make up for the losses and try to be stable.

The Yen losing its color as G7 meet is near

The Yen though weak has been doing well from past one week by moving in a upward trend against the top currencies like the Euro and the dollar. And most of them anticipated that the Yen may not be the issue in the G7 meet.

But yesterday the anticipations took a “U” turn. The dollar climbed against the yen, dropping the yen to snap its two-day losses. And the Yen was bit relaxed thinking that there is no issue in the G7 meet relating to it.


But now it’s not the same case as expected. The Japanese currency‘s weakness is growing and there are all possibilities of the European officials going to hit the yen in the G7 meet. One thing is clear that yen is going to be a hot topic in the upcoming seven nations meet.


Once the above data was revealed, the Japanese Currency became weaker and resumed its downward path. However, it is said that U.S may not be involved in raising voice against the yen.

The Yen was down by 0.4% against the dollar and the sterling and 0.7% against the Euro and 0.4%.


The Swiss franc is also leading as a low-yielding currency, but there may not be the issue with the Swiss Franc in the G7 meet.

Only one day left for G7 meet. Let’s see tomorrow what would be the result of the yen after G7 meeting.

Hot Yen become Cool at once!!

Hi Friends!!!


If we want to

earn money quickly, generally we all concentrate on trading. We trade on the world markets. So, if we have a look on the currency markets, there is always some or the other hot topic going on.


At the moment,

the Yen which was weak from past one week is surprisingly doing well amid some strong carry trades. The Yen has been gaining against the U.S dollar from past two days. But the U.S dollar is not so unattended. It was waiting for a chance to take revenge, and it made all preparations and took the rival yen down by snapping two-day losses against the Yen. The Yen all of a sudden became very cool.


Today, the U.S treasury auction indicated a stro
ng bounce in demand from the global investors. The U.S dollar traded at 120.27Y from 120.10Y. The dollar may rise today to 120.75Y. Investors which included Foreign Central Banks bought the most treasuries yesterday for sale encouraging speculation demand to be stronger today at the auction.


Two-Days to go for G7 Meet:

The chances of Yen’s weakness becoming an issue in the G7 meeting are more. The Meeting is hosted in Essen, Germany on February 9th & 10th. But whether the Yen is going to be the highlight in the meeting or not, it’s still unclear.


In my opinion, lets Wait and watch is best for now.

World Currencies



Japanese Currency

Today the yen traded near a three-week high on speculation that the European officials will speak out that the Japan's currency is too weak and its interest rates are too low at a meeting of the Group of Seven nations this week.

The yen is the fourth-best performer of the 16 most- active currencies in the past five days as traders raised bets thinking that the central bank will increase borrowing costs this month. Japan's currency has added 1.1 percent in the past five days.

Well, the Yen is near to the Three-Week High as G-7 May Focus on Japan's Low Rate. Still three more days left to the G7 Meeting ---Till then if the Yen recovers and continues to the best performer there is a scope of the Europeans maintaining silence when it’s the issue of the Yen.

Opinion:

In my opinion, if the Japanese Currency does well in these two more days, then there will not be any issue in the G7 Meeting.



U.K Currency

The U.K. pound fell from near a 10- day high versus the dollar after a report which showed that the services growth in Europe's second-biggest economy slowed last month.

The pound rose last week after U.K. factory production unexpectedly accelerated. Traders have raised their bets expecting the interest-rates are going to increase more in future after the Bank of England raised its benchmark rate for the third time in five months in January to fight against the fastest inflation in a decade.

The investors anticipate that in future there may be another increase by the end of March.

Opinion

In my opinion the U.K currency is sure to rise in couple of days.



The Australian Currency

The Australian dollar fell to the lowest in more than three weeks against the yen as traders bought Japan's currency before a Group of Seven meeting this weekend.

Traders are unwinding yen carry trades, where they borrow a lower-yielding currency to invest in a higher-yielding one, ahead of the G-7 meeting, because European officials are complaining the yen is too cheap.

Australia's currency has dropped 3.3 percent against the yen making it a high in this year from January. With the Current Yen’s strength, many are seeing that there will be a downside pressure to the Australian dollar

Opinion

Oh!! Yeah In my opinion there is concern about the Australian Dollar; the Australian dollar should take some measures to prevent its downfall, if not it may have to lift some more losses ahead.

Yen brighten ups—


The yen which is going to bea hot topic in the upcoming G7 Meeting due to its weakness is now already on a brighter side. The European officials are ready to voice their opinions regarding the weak yen. But before that, the European officials saw the yen lifting up itself from the losses against the dollar and also against the Euro too. The Japanese Currency rose to a seven-day high against the Euro indicating that the Group of Seven nations are going to debate on the yen on Feb 9th-10th meeting. According to a report which was released on Feb 2nd, stated that Washington based trading commission showed the traders that round 1, 73,000 positions profited from the weak yen. There is a concern and anxiety as well in the minds of the Japanese officials because they think that the European officials might raise voice to complain about the Yen’s weakness in the upcoming meeting. This may affect the Japanese Economy. But still it is not clear whether the Europeans are going to raise their concerns regarding the yen or otherwise.


Meanwhile, the Yen has advanced against 13 Active currencies out of 16. The Yen climbed to 120.82 against the dollar and it also climbed against the Euro by 156.35 per Euro. I


In my opinion, If the Europeans can slow-down their pace and decide not to voice their opinion against the yen, then the Japanese economy may become stable.

Yen rocks amid some Fluctuations



The Yen which is fluctuating from many days from slump to bump and vice versa has now gained support as the G7 Meeting is in front. The European officials are bit worried about the Yen’s weakness. Although it recovered in past three days amidst increasing carry trade appetite, but still its going to the major issue to be talked about in the G7 meeting. Before someone could discuss about yen’s weakness and its causes, the Japanese officials Hiroshi Watanbe, Japan’s Vice-Finance Minister is ready with the report which states what chances had led the Japanese currency to become weak and how did it influence the Japan’s market.

But not to forget that amid a terrible increase in carry trades in Japan, the Yen has gained against the dollar and the new news is it also gained against the Euro.

Yesterday, the yen rose to 0.1% against the U.S dollar and 0.2% against the Euro. Yesterday, the Japanese Currency’s flux reached to a four-month high indicating the investors to reduce record bets on the Yen’s downward trend. There is lot of possibility of investors buying back the yen once the G-7 meeting comes to an end.

In my opinion, the Yen is going to be stronger ahead in view of the G7 meeting.

The U.S dollar is upset!!!!!



Hi Friends!!!!!

As said yesterday that Federal Reserve is going to hold a policy-setting meeting to review its interest rates… the meeting was held and …..


You know friends…the dollar is upset now….

Come let’s know the whole story as to why the dollar is upset……

The Federal Reserve as anticipated didn’t change the interest rates and left the interest rates on hold at 5.25% at its policy setting meeting. The dollar which had strengthened itself earlier in the session after the strong rise in the U.S gross Domestic product has fallen sharply after the Fed’s decision. Yesterday, owing to the unchanged interest rates, the U.S dollar fell to 0.4% against the Euro. This blow has made the U.S dollar upset.

And the Most surprising news is that the Yen which was in desperate situation till yesterday has suddenly climbed against the U.S dollar and the Euro. The Yen although reversed itself yesterday from some losses, but still it is under real pressure as the investors appetite is increasing for carry trades.

The investors are selling Yen to buy the high-yielding currencies since the yen is at present the low-yielding currency. This weakness of Yen is going to be the talk of issue in the upcoming meeting G7 which will start from February 9th.

The Yen rose by 0.2% against the Euro and 0.7% against the Sterling On seeing the above analysis I feel that the U.S dollar can reach peak heights^^^^^

if the Fed rethinks about its decision Friends!!!!! What do you feel---Whatever you feel, please feel free to comment in my Comment box---One click will lead you to my Comment box…..
