Sources say Japans Ministry of Finance is considering a regular mid-year review of its government bond issuance plans.JPMorgan Chase raised its target price for GlaxoSmithKline from 1,400 pence to 1,500 pence.November 7th - The impact of gold on the Thai currency has fallen to its lowest level in nearly two years, suggesting that policymakers efforts to curb the bahts appreciation may finally be starting to pay off. Data shows that the 60-day correlation between the baht and gold fell below 0.43 earlier this week, the lowest level since November 2023. The 30-day and 45-day correlations, reflecting recent volatility, also fell to their lowest levels since February. Thai authorities have been trying to weaken the bahts link to gold by encouraging gold transactions to be settled in US dollars and considering a tax on physical gold transactions. In June 2023, the 60-day correlation between the baht and gold reached 0.8. Officials said this correlation exacerbated the bahts rise to a four-year high in September, putting pressure on exports and tourism. "The risk of potential fiscal or monetary policy measures is a moral deterrent," said Kobsidthi Silpachai, head of capital markets research at Kasikornbank in Bangkok. He believes this "seems to have deterred speculators from participating in gold long and USD/THB short trades."Market news: Google will build a new artificial intelligence data center at a small outpost in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Australia.Apple: Service outage issues for Apple TV and Apple Arcade have been resolved.

Following a huge upward rise from 0.8360 on Thursday, the EUR/GBP pair has subsequently turned sideways around 0.8430 in the Tokyo session. After the Bank of England (BOE) hiked interest rates by 50 basis points, the cross displayed a significant upward rise (bps) (bps). The BOE lifted interest rates by 50 basis points in succession, bringing them to 1.75 percent.

 

The investing community is aware that UK household earnings have been unsteady during the preceding few months. In addition, the economy's inflation rate is fast expanding. The inflation rate was 9.4 percent prior. The recent statement by BOE Governor Andrew Bailey that price increases might exceed 13 percent has sent shockwaves across the market.

 

The runaway inflation is now escalating, leaving the BOE with very little flexibility to tighten its monetary policy. The BOE is in poor shape as a result of the dismal economic data and the continuing political upheaval following the departure of UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson. A recession in the UK economy is extremely probable in the case that the inflation rate is close to 13 percent.

 

German manufacturing order numbers for the Eurozone have decreased by 0.4 percent against an anticipated 0.8 percent decline and a prior monthly contraction of 0.2 percent. Falling orders from factories indicate sluggish demand in Germany as a whole. It is vital to remember that Germany is a key element of the European Union (EU), and that economic data from Germany has a huge effect on people who favor the common currency.
