Little optimism on currencies as yuan devaluation shakes markets

Quoted financial analysts, January 1, 2015 – September 2, 2015

New York, September 4, 2015. The recent devaluation of the Chinese yuan has further dropped already negative quoted financial analyst sentiment on currency market investment, according to new research from Media Tenor International.

“The overall analyst picture on the currency markets is bleak,” says Racheline Maltese, a researcher at Media Tenor.  “For 2015 through early September, only the U.S. dollar and the U.K. pound have achieved positive marks,” she notes, adding that the outlook on the euro has been negative.

Media Tenor also found that no analyst firm has had a positive outlook on currencies during the last month, although some limited bright spots were noted. “Analysts are sending a clear message – stay away from currencies, and watch out for how they might impact your other investments,” Maltese says.

This research examined all 37,129 analyst statements in eight opinion-leading business media January 1, 2015 – September 2, 2015.
