This is an unusual public statement and show of support from the head of the U.S. central bank. The Supreme Court is hearing whether President Trump has the right to dismiss Cook, who was appointed by former President Biden. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that Powell plans to attend Wednesdays hearing. This is Powells most public and direct support for Cook to date; Trump had attempted to remove Cook from office as early as the end of August last year. Previously, Powell revealed that the Trump administration had subpoenaed the Federal Reserve and threatened to bring unprecedented criminal charges against him. In a video statement released on January 11th, Powell condemned these subpoenas as mere "pretexts," the real purpose of which was to force him to significantly lower the Federal Reserves benchmark interest rate.According to the Associated Press: Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will attend a Supreme Court hearing regarding Federal Reserve Governor Tim Cook.January 20th - According to foreign media citing sources, the pool of candidates for the position of Vice President of the European Central Bank has narrowed to four after two Baltic states withdrew from the race.

NZD/USD falls rapidly from 0.6260 when the RBNZ announces a decline in inflation projections to 3.07 percent

The NZD/USD pair has encountered selling pressure while attempting to surpass the immediate resistance level of 0.6260. The asset has seen bids after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) announced inflation estimates at 3.07 percent, down from 3.29 percent previously. It could be an indication of waning price pressure, but additional evidence is still needed to support the argument.

 

Price pressures in the New Zealand economy are increasing and have not yet shown signs of weariness. A June report indicates that an inflation rate of 7.3% is adequate to generate headwinds for families. The RBNZ is consistently escalating its policy tightening measures to combat the same. RBNZ Governor Adrian Orr has already increased the Official Cash Rate by 2.50 percentage points.

 

On the front of the US dollar, the US dollar index (DXY) has returned all intraday gains and is currently trading near the day's open at 106.60. While attempting to break over the crucial resistance level of 106.80, the DXY has encountered selling pressure. This week, investors' attention is centered on Wednesday's release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI).

 

The annual inflation rate is projected to continue at 8.7 percent, down from 9.1 percent in the previous report. Oil prices have been on a downward trend in July, which may be the determining factor for a significant decline in the price increase index. While the US CPI excluding volatile food and oil prices may increase from 5.9 percent to 6.1 percent, the previous reading was 5.9 percent.
