February 27th - According to three sources familiar with intelligence reports, US President Trumps claim that Iran is about to possess missiles capable of striking the United States is not supported by US intelligence reports and appears exaggerated, casting doubt on some of his reasons for potentially attacking Iran.

However, two sources indicated that an unpublished 2025 assessment by the US Defense Intelligence Agency suggests that Iran may not be able to develop a "militarily viable intercontinental ballistic missile" (ICBM) using its existing Satellite Launch Vehicle (SLV) until 2035.February 27th - The British Labour Party indicated it was likely to lose to the left-wing Green Party in the by-elections for Gordon and Denton, a significant blow to Prime Minister Starmer.

During the Tokyo session, the USD/CHF pair is oscillating near the round-level barrier of 0.9400 as investors await the release of the United States' five-year consumer inflation forecasts for more direction. The Swiss franc is attempting to surpass the immediate resistance level of 0.9410, but the risk-on mentality stops the US Dollar from advancing further.

 

In the framework of the risk appetite theme, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is hitting resistance close to the significant level of 105.20. In the meantime, 10-year US Treasury yields have attempted to recover after falling to approximately 3.40 percent on Wednesday. The yield on long-term US Treasury bonds has rebounded to approximately 3.45%.
