[ANNOUNCE]The past week did not see many sharp moves from the observed indexes, but was instead notable for quite persistent trends, with three gauges breaking out of the ±1.00% range, and another two touching the levels. 

The week's main gainer was the Yen's measure, which posted its fourth weekly growth in a row. 

Meanwhile, the Loonie's gauge became the leader in the negative area as it posted its greatest weekly loss since mid-April and pushed its YTD change to the -5.00% mark. 

The past period did not see any prominent volatility peaks, yet the observed currencies still experienced moderate levels of turbulence.

The most tranquil currencies were the Loonie, the Franc, and the Euro with median volatilities of 0.027-0.028%, while the highest medians of 0.035% and 0.037% were posted by the Kiwi and the Yen. 

Shifts between the past week's correlations and the monthly readings were rather modest, with the maximum deviation between the weekly and the long-term medians standing below 0.10 points at 0.08. [/ANNOUNCE]
