SUMMARY<BR>Foreign exchange trade is basically quiet with the dollar showing 
some<BR>support against the yen and being range bound against the Deutsche 
Mark.<BR><BR>ASIA<BR>Nomura International, the European investment banking arm 
of Japan's<BR>Nomura Securities posted as GBP 289 million loss for the first six 
months of<BR>the year.&nbsp; The heavy losses were largely attributed to Russia 
and other<BR>emerging markets.&nbsp; Moody's has downgraded Nomura and put 5 
regional banks on<BR>review with negative implications.<BR><BR>EUROPE<BR>The 
Bundesbank and Bank of France both left official interest 
rates<BR>unchanged.&nbsp; The maintaining of policy by both central banks was 
expected.<BR>Probable easing in UK interest rates continues to be priced in 
to<BR>financial markets.&nbsp; Britain's Engineering Employers Federation 
predicted<BR>1999 GDP to slip to just 0.7%.&nbsp; The government's forecast now 
stands at 1.0%<BR>growth.&nbsp; The Monetary Policy Committee is expected to cut 
the 7.25% repo<BR>rate on November 5 following the next scheduled 
meeting.<BR><BR>AMERICAS<BR>NY Fed President McDonough downplayed risks to the 
US banking<BR>system.&nbsp; McDonough said that losses in the current quarter 
were unlikely to<BR>repeated in following quarters.&nbsp; He also said that he 
was unaware of any<BR>hedge fund that is as highly leveraged as Long Term 
Capital Management was<BR>prior to the bailout.&nbsp; McDonough also stressed 
that he is concerned about<BR>credit availability in the US.&nbsp; The Fed 
President said that while &quot;...we do<BR>not have a credit crunch in the 
United States we're at a point where we<BR>could develop one.&quot;<BR>Quebec's 
Premier Bouchard said he is still interested in a<BR>referendum for 
separation.&nbsp; The renewed call for an independent Quebec is<BR>weighing on 
the Canadian Dollar.<BR>US stocks and bonds open softer today.&nbsp; Bond yields 
are approaching<BR>5.10% and stocks are currently off 0.5%.<BR></FONT></DIV>

I am totally inept with EW, my count may not be in the ball park, but if
this is the end of a W5, the projections look like this.
