Hello Traders,

Thanks to those of you who joined us today. I should reiterate that the Monday Market Update is just that. A big picture overview of the markets, with a few ‘charts of interest’ thrown in. There are no trade recommendations, this is not a signal service, nor trade recommendations – just what I am looking at and interested in.

Today we looked at; FX STAM, Babcock International Group ($BAB), Chemring Group ($CHG), International Workplace Group ($IWG), Apple Inc ($AAPL).

The Monday Market Update for June 16, 2025, covered the performance of major currencies and indices. The Euro surged to the top, while the US dollar and Aussie dollar weakened. Key events include the Bank of Japan’s meeting, UK CPI inflation, FOMC, Swiss National Bank, BOE Interest rate Decision and UK retail sales. Oil prices spiked to $78 due to Middle East tensions, but later retreated. Defence stocks like Babcock and other companies saw significant gains. Indices showed mixed performance, with some bullish trends. Gold and Bitcoin also saw notable movements. The session emphasized the importance of upcoming central bank decisions and geopolitical events in shaping market trends.

We also covered the usual suspects: $DJIA, $NDX, $SPY, $RTY, $DAX, $FTSE, $N225, $WTI, $XAUUSD, $XAGUSD, $BTCUSD, $USD, $DXY, $JPY, $AUD, $CHF, $NZD and $GBP.

Have a great trading week, and I’ll see you next Monday at 1230.

Trade well,

Paul
