Despite rising yields on Greek and Portuguese debt, the Euro was able to stage a late week rally, creating a false break down, and triggering short covering. The close of EUR/USD on Thursday below a trend-line (from late March to early April), pushed the market offside, which lead to a short covering rally when the aid package was announced.

Yen Lifted by Technical's

After retracing last week on fears related to the SEC charge of Goldman Sachs, USD/JPY has rallied back and is poised to test resistance levels at 94.50. The 5-day moving average is set to cross above the 20-day moving average, which is a positive technical sign for the currency pair.
