According to Sky News, British energy company Octopus Energy plans to sell approximately 20% of its Kraken Technologies software subsidiary to investors at a valuation of $9 billion to $10 billion.Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Sergei Syrsky: The US peace plan has not restricted Ukraines mobilization.On December 30th, according to Russias TASS news agency, Russian presidential aide Ushakov stated on the 29th that US President Trump spoke with Russian President Putin that day, briefing him on his meeting with Ukrainian President Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago the previous day. Trump said that during the meeting, he advised Ukraine not to try to buy respite for frontline troops, but to focus on reaching a comprehensive agreement to effectively end the conflict. Putin stated in the call that actions such as the Ukrainian drone attack on the Russian presidential residence would receive the "strongest response."On December 30th, amid a general sell-off in precious metals, the worlds largest silver ETF, iShares Silver Trust (SLV), fell nearly 9% intraday, heading towards its biggest single-day drop since 2020. Todays decline has pulled prices back to near pre-Christmas holiday levels. Despite todays sharp drop, SLV is still up over 140% year-to-date. According to fund documents, to meet the surge in demand this year, SLV had added nearly 67 million ounces of silver as of last Friday. However, analysts point out that while this figure seems large, it represents only a small fraction of total global silver demand this year. They emphasize that strong demand from solar panel manufacturers and increased imports from India (where precious metals are far more popular among savers than in the US) are the main drivers of overall demand growth.EIA Natural Gas Report: For the week ending December 19, total U.S. natural gas inventories were 3.413 trillion cubic feet, down 166 billion cubic feet from the previous week and down 129 billion cubic feet from the same period last year, a year-on-year decrease of 3.6%, while also 24 billion cubic feet below the 5-year average, a decrease of 0.7%.

As China's monthly activity data disappoints offshore Chinese yuan (CNH) investors, the USD/CNH continues to draw buyers for a third consecutive day on Monday, advancing 0.23 percent intraday to 7.2850 as of press time. Concerns regarding covid difficulties in the dragon kingdom and apprehensions regarding a hawkish move by the Federal Reserve also encourage buyers to remain positive.

 

As a result, China's official NBS Manufacturing PMI for October dropped to 49.2, compared to the expected 50.0 and the previous 50.1. In addition, the Non-Manufacturing PMI fell to 48.7, below market estimates of 51.9 and previous readings of 50.6. Following the publication of the data, Reuters produced an article "In October, China's factory activity unexpectedly dropped, according to a survey released by the government on Monday. Global demand decline and strict COVID-19 regulations impeded manufacturing."

 

Due to the US dollar's status as a safe haven, the shutdown of a casino resort in Macau and Russian concerns also add to the USD/appreciation. Russia, which invaded Ukraine on February 24, halted its participation in the Black Sea agreement for a "indefinite period" on Saturday because it could not "guarantee the protection of civilian ships" traveling under the treaty after its Black Sea naval was attacked.

 

The fact that US Treasury yields are directionless after a bad economic report is notable, as is the fact that US stocks futures are seeing modest losses as the Dow Jones prepares for its highest monthly gain since 1976. In addition, the US Dollar Index (DXY) demonstrates a three-day increase near 110.80, with an intraday increase of 0.1% as of press time.

 

In conclusion, the USD/CNH bulls may maintain control because China's fundamentals are weaker than those of the United States. Concerns that the Fed may suggest slowing the pace of rate hikes beginning in December have recently appeared to test buyers of currency pairs.
