On June 21, the official app of Pop Mart began to push notifications for the replenishment of the Labubu series blind boxes on June 18, and the e-commerce live broadcast room also released a large number of goods. That night, many consumers posted their pre-sale orders on social platforms. Affected by the official replenishment, the price of Labubu in the second-hand market plummeted. Data from a certain second-hand trading software for trendy toys showed that the recycling price of a whole box of Labubu 3.0 dropped from 1,500 yuan to 2,800 yuan to 650 yuan to 800 yuan. Previously, some scalpers relied on the order grabbing software to stock up and sold at a premium of more than 10 times, but the official large-scale replenishment broke the expectation of scarcity, and the market sold off.IDF: We eliminated Joudaki, commander of the 2nd Drone Brigade of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.On June 21, the Iraqi ambassador to the United Nations said on the 20th local time that Iraq demanded that Israel stop violating its airspace.

GBP/USD aims to retake 1.2300 amid an upbeat market sentiment, with US/UK Inflation in the spotlight

After dipping as low as 1.2260 during the Tokyo session, GBP/USD demand has increased. The Cable is attempting to reclaim the round-level resistance of 1.2300 as investors' risk appetite has risen significantly ahead of the release of U.S. inflation data.

 

The US Dollar index (DXY) has fallen below the round-level support of 105.00 as investors' pre-US inflation jitters have dissipated. S&P500 futures are maintaining their gains from Monday due to expectations of a drop in inflationary pressures. The anticipated change in the Federal Reserve's (Fed) interest rate policy has reinforced optimism on a broader scale.

 

The street anticipates a reduction in the US Consumer Price Index (CPI), driven by a decline in gasoline costs and consumer-inflation estimates for one year. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York's monthly Survey of Consumer Forecasts reported on Monday that US consumers' one-year inflation expectations decreased to 5.2% in November from 5.9% in October, the greatest one-month reduction on record. Inflation expectations have consequently decreased to 7.3% for headline inflation and to 6.0% for core inflation.

 

On the British Pound front, investors anticipate the release of the United Kingdom Employment and CPI numbers on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. The quarterly Unemployment Rate (October) is anticipated to be 3.7%, up from the previously reported 3.6%. Aside from this, the statistics on Average Earnings is the most relevant aspect. Quarterly Average Earnings without Bonuses were anticipated to increase by 5.9% compared to the preceding announcement of 5.7%.

 

While it is anticipated that the headline rate of inflation in the United Kingdom would decline to 10.9% from 11.1%, as previously reported. As a result of the food supply issue, labor shortages, and growing input costs, food price inflation has soared. Investors should not overlook the possibility of an unforeseen inflation spike.
