Jeremy Paul, a professor of constitutional law at Northeastern University, stated, "Its difficult to see any legal body able to impose actual penalties on the government."On January 4th, international law experts stated that the Trump administrations claim that the operation was both a targeted law enforcement mission and a prelude to long-term US control over Venezuela confounds legal issues. Jeremy Paul, a professor of constitutional law at Northeastern University, said, "You cant say its a law enforcement operation and then turn around and say we need to govern this country. That simply doesnt make sense." Legal experts believe that drug trafficking and gang violence are considered criminal activities and do not meet the internationally recognized standards for instigating armed conflict, therefore there is no justification for military action. Matthew Waxman, a law professor at Columbia University specializing in national security law, stated, "A criminal prosecution alone is insufficient to authorize the use of military force to overthrow a foreign government, and the government is likely to attribute this to the theory of self-defense."

Due to China's higher-than-expected inflation, the USD/CNH exchange rate falls below 6.95

During the Asian session, the USD/CNH pair broke below the narrow consolidation created near 6.9600. The downward pressure on the main currency is a result of the higher-than-anticipated release of China's inflation data and investors' increased risk appetite.

 

China's yearly Consumer Price Index (CPI) has hit 1.6%, which is greater than the projected 1.0% but less than the prior announcement of 2.1%. While the monthly figure indicates a 0.2% decline, the annual rate is up 0.4%. The yearly Producer Price Index (PPI) data has decreased by 1.3% compared to the consensus estimate of a 1.5% decline. The economists at TD Securities projected that the annual inflation rate would decline from 2.1% to 1.5%.

 

The People's Bank of China (PBOC) may be required to provide additional stimulus packages to stimulate the pace of economic activity, despite the fact that the release is greater than anticipated but in a phase of decline.

 

In the interim, the removal of Covid-19 restrictions will stimulate economic activity in China. Previously, the administration imposed limits on the movement of personnel, goods, and machines in an effort to prevent the spread of disease. Now, the reopening of the economy after domestic demonstrations will improve economic prospects.

 

As investors anticipate a delay in the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has fallen dramatically to near 104.56. (Fed). In addition, markets have shrugged considerable uncertainties around the Fed's peak interest rate guidance.
