SPY _ FXE _ FXA Correlation 

Invesco CurrencyShares Euro Currency TrustArca

Description

For what it is worth:

This is the ridiculous nature of markets - sometimes they just don't think for themselves and instead they act like sheep and follow another market, no matter where it goes. In this instance, the stock market here in the USA, together with the EuroCurrency (as measured by the FXE etf) and the Australian Dollar (as measured by the FXA etf) are moving in tandem with each other for the past few weeks.

This chart is an hourly chart - just click on "make in mine" and you can see it update live.

Cheers.

To help with sorting for ideas, I'll add AUDUSD, and EURUSD, and ^GSPC to this commentary
