May 5, European Commission Vice President Theresa Ribera said on Monday that Microsoft (MSFT.O) Chairman Brad Smith told the European Commission that Microsoft would comply with EU regulations whether it agreed or not. In a chat with reporters, Ribera said: "I think it is more valuable to recognize that if we want to operate in this market, we must abide by the rules and we must respect the rules, rather than simply saying You are targeting me because I am American." Microsoft said last month that it would sell its chat and video application Teams separately from Office software worldwide.

The USD/CHF pair has detected buying activity after dropping close to the round-level support of 0.9200 to begin the Asian session. In spite of the upbeat market sentiment, the Swiss franc extended its rebound above the immediate resistance level of 0.9200.

 

After a corrective move on Monday, S&P500 futures are displaying a mediocre performance as the markets fail to sustain a recovery. Long liquidation was the result of stocks' extended uptrend. The US Dollar Index (DXY) has reestablished its seven-month low at about 102.50, pushed by increased recession fears following a major dip in economic activity and less hawkish monetary policy predictions following a strong drop in wage inflation.

 

As investors' appetite for risk decreases once more, the demand for U.S. government bonds continues to decline. This has contributed to 10-year US Treasury yields exceeding 3.53 percent.

 

Tuesday's highlight will be Federal Reserve (Fed) chairman Jerome Powell's address, which will clarify the monetary policy decision for February. The remarks of Atlanta Fed bank president Raphael Bostic provide investors with a wealth of actionable information. A Fed policymaker forecasts that there will be no recession in CY2023, but has severely reduced GDP projections to 1%. He anticipates that interest rates will have to remain elevated until at least 2024.

 

On the subject of the Swiss currency, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) will be compelled to maintain a modest monetary policy if the Real Retail Sales (Nov) data declines annually. The economic data decreased by 1.3%, when the consensus forecast predicted a 3.0% expansion.
