JPMorgan Chase: It is expected that the Bank of England will cut interest rates by 25 basis points in February and May 2026 respectively (the previous forecast time for the rate cut was November 2025 and February 2026).The yield on Britain’s 30-year government bond rose to its highest level since September 15 at 5.502%, up 7 basis points on the day.On September 18th, Michael Pfister of Commerzbank predicted in a report that the Canadian dollar will only gradually appreciate against a weakening US dollar and depreciate against the euro due to the impact of US tariffs on Canadas real economy. He noted that the Bank of Canada is likely to cut interest rates further after cutting them by 25 basis points on Wednesday to support the economy. Pfister believes that the Canadian dollar is likely to remain under pressure until uncertainties related to US-Canada trade are resolved. Commerzbank predicts that the USD/CAD exchange rate will fall from the current 1.3782 to 1.3700 by December. The bank explained that this forecast is based on the "unstable" political situation in the United States, the possibility of significant interest rate cuts, and risks to the Federal Reserves independence, all of which will weigh on the US dollar.Amazon (AMZN.O): Merchants can use Amazons logistics network to process, pack and ship Walmart orders, with new capabilities for Shopify (SHOP.N) and Xiyin to be added by the end of the year.On September 18th, despite lower-than-expected inflation in South Africa, which brought policymakers closer to their current 3% inflation target, the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) decided to keep borrowing costs unchanged.

Panasonic Anticipates A Rise in Global Automobile Production This Fiscal Year

Panasonic (OTC:PCRFY) Holdings Corp, which manufactures batteries for Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and other automakers, stated on Wednesday that it anticipates a recovery in global vehicle production this fiscal year, but that the two-year semiconductor shortage will persist.


Masashi Nagayasu, CEO of the Japanese conglomerate's automotive business, which manufactures in-car infotainment systems and other auto components, stated, "We will operate our business in consideration of the risks of fluctuations in vehicle manufacturing."


Nagayasu stated on the first day of Panasonic's annual investor event that the company has no plans to produce automobiles.


Panasonic, whose automotive division accounts for approximately 14 percent of its entire revenue, anticipates a 19 percent increase in sales for the fiscal year ending in March 2023. It anticipates an operational profit increase of roughly 17 percent.


Due to component shortages caused by COVID-19 lockdowns in China and higher commodity prices as a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the company stated last month that it did not anticipate a profit increase for this fiscal year.


(This item corrects the firm name in paragraph 1 to Panasonic Holdings Corp from Panasonic Corp, and the sales growth forecast in paragraph 4 to 19 percent from 10 percent, and the operating profit forecast to nearly 17 percent from 15 percent decline.)
