Moody's downgrades France to Aa1 from Aaa
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Moody's has downgraded France's government bond rating to Aa1 from Aaa, maintains negative outlook. Moody's decision to downgrade France and maintain the negative outlook reflects the following:
From Moody's: 1.) France's long-term economic growth outlook is negatively affected by multiple structural challenges, including its gradual, sustained loss of competitiveness and the long-standing rigidities of its labour, goods and service markets. 2.) France's fiscal outlook is uncertain as a result of its deteriorating economic prospects, both in the short term due to subdued domestic and external demand, and in the longer term due to the structural rigidities noted above. 3.) The predictability of France's resilience to future euro area shocks is diminishing in view of the rising risks to economic growth, fiscal performance and cost of funding. France's exposure to peripheral Europe through its trade linkages and its banking system is disproportionately large, and its contingent obligations to support other euro area members have been increasing. Moreover, unlike other non-euro area sovereigns that carry similarly high ratings, France does not have access to a national central bank for the financing of its debt in the event of a market disruption.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: On the bigger picture trend still is pointing up. Targets at 1.2824 (R2) and 1.2837 (R3) might be attractive for the uptrend penetration if the price manage to break our next resistance level at 1.2811 (R1). Downwards scenario: Clearance of next support level at 1.2785 (S1) might lead to the retracement formation with next expected targets at 1.2772 (S2) and 1.2760 (S3) in potential.
Resistance Levels: 1.2811, 1.2824, 1.2837
Support Levels: 1.2785, 1.2772, 1.2760

GBPUSD :
HIGH 1.59195 LOW 1.58914 BID 1.59130 ASK 1.59135 CHANGE 0.03% TIME 08 : 11 : 05
OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Up
TREND CONDITION : Upward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium
Upwards scenario: Market moves in consolidation mode after the uptrend formation and we expect retest of previous day high later on today. Clearance of next resistance level at 1.5924 (R1) would suggest next targets at 1.5936 (R2) and 1.5947 (R3). Downwards scenario: While next support is placed at 1.5907 (S1), decline below it would put in focus next target at 1.5894 (S2) and any further depreciation would then be limited to 1.5882 (S3) intraday.
Resistance Levels: 1.5924, 1.5936, 1.5947
Support Levels: 1.5907, 1.5894, 1.5882

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Up
TREND CONDITION : Sideway
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium
Upwards scenario: Instrument stabilized and trades in a narrow channel without priority in direction. Fresh peak is acting now as resistance level at 81.43 (R1), penetration above it would suggest next targets at 81.59 (R2) and 81.76 (R3) on the upside. Downwards scenario: We suggest waiting for a clear break out of important levels prior taking any positions. If USDJPY manage to break our support level at 81.12 (S1), we expect next targets at 80.94 (S2) and 80.75 (S3) in potential.
Resistance Levels: 81.43, 81.59, 81.76
