[ANNOUNCE] The past period saw the observed indexes change in a moderate range of ±1.25%, with most measures posting negative results. 

The weekend was marked by the long-awaited elections in New Zealand and Germany, and both the Kiwi's and the Euro's indexes opened the period with notable drops from Friday's levels. 

Meanwhile, the CHF and JPY indexes skyrocketed on Monday, when the North Korea's foreign minister stated that the US President's Twitter message was a declaration of war against North Korea. 

The week's sharpest fall was suffered by the Loonie's gauge, which lost 0.53 pp in its immediate reaction to the BoC governor's speech. 

The last week of September retained the tendency to overturbulence that was observed throughout the month.  

For the third period in a row, the highest median volatility levels were posted by the Pound and the Kiwi with the readings of 0.041% and 0.043%, respectively.

The past week saw moderate shifts between the weekly and the monthly correlation medians, with most of the changes, similarly to the previous period, coming from the Pound's and the Dollar's pairs. [/ANNOUNCE]
