Other high-yielding currencies also performed well, in line<br \/>with moves equity and other risk assets, with ETFS Long NOK Short USD (LNOK) and<br \/>ETFS Long NZD Short USD (LNZD) gaining 2.0% and 1.6% respectively.<br \/><strong>&#8211; Japanese Yen hovers near 15-year highs, as Bank of Japan implements more<\/strong> <strong>stimulus. <\/strong>ETFS Long JPY Short USD (LJPY) continued to rally last week, up 0.4%, but investors appear hesitant to push the Yen much above current levels. With risk appetite having rebounded on stronger than expected US data, the Bank of Japan announcing further monetary stimulus, and with Japanese exporters suffering from the strengthening currency, investors appeared wary of increasing long yen positions last week.<br \/><strong>&#8211; Positioning indicates continued bearishness towards the Euro. <\/strong>ETFS Short EUR Long GBP (GBUR) is the most preferred currency exposure, accounting for 20% of AUM.<br \/>Additionally, ETFS Short EUR Long USD (SEUR) accounts for 17% of AUM. In all, short Euro positions comprise nearly 50% of AUM.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Source: ETFWorld &#8211; ETFSecurities<\/p>\n<p> <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Courier New,monospace;\"><span lang=\"fr-FR\"> <\/span><\/span><\/span> <\/p>\n<p style=\"position: absolute;
