Beijing Mayor Yin Yong delivered the government work report. By 2025, Beijings GDP will reach 5.2 trillion yuan, a growth of 5.4%, 0.4 percentage points higher than the national average. General public budget revenue will increase by 4.8%, the urban surveyed unemployment rate will be 4.1%, and per capita disposable income will increase by 4.4% in real terms. Consumer prices will remain generally stable. Several indicators, including per capita GDP, total labor productivity, and energy consumption, water consumption, and carbon emissions per 10,000 yuan of GDP, will remain among the best in the country for provincial-level regions.On January 25th, according to CNN, federal law enforcement officers in Minneapolis, Minnesota, shot and killed another man during an immigration enforcement operation. Video footage shows a federal officer disarming the man before a Border Patrol officer shot him. The deceased has been identified as 37-year-old Alex Pretty, believed to be an intensive care unit nurse. Police stated he was suspected of having a legal gun license. The Department of Homeland Security claims the officer acted in self-defense—a claim Minnesota Governor Tim Walz dismissed as nonsense and a lie. During the Trump administrations massive crackdown on immigration, the Department of Homeland Securitys statements have been repeatedly contradicted by on-site video footage and challenged in court. Despite the cold weather, anti-ICE protesters continued their march in Minneapolis today.On January 25th, when asked about the recent sell-off of Japanese government bonds and the depreciation of the yen, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said on a Fuji TV program, "I will not comment on specific market fluctuations." She added, "The government will take necessary measures against speculative or abnormal market behavior," but did not elaborate further. Previously, the sharp fluctuations in the yens exchange rate had fueled traders expectations of possible government intervention. The recent sell-off of Japanese government bonds and the yen has raised concerns that Takaichis expansionary fiscal policy and the Bank of Japans slow pace of interest rate hikes could lead to increased government debt and excessive inflation. After the yen fell below the important psychological level of 160 against the dollar, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York suddenly conducted a currency check on Friday. Some traders believed this increased the possibility of joint US-Japan intervention to stop the yens continued depreciation, after which the yen rebounded rapidly.Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi: The government will take necessary measures to deal with speculative and abnormal market fluctuations.

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.
