According to Fox News: US Middle East envoy Witkoff said a meeting on the Gaza issue will be held at the White House on Wednesday.On August 27, UBS reported that Federal Reserve Chairman Powells speech at Jackson Hole was "classic Powell style," signaling a higher probability of a September rate cut to offset the drag of trade tariffs, but lacking guidance on a medium-term policy framework for economies facing structural change. While the market welcomed the hint of a rate cut, the bank believes its core message is essentially "data-dependent rhetoric wrapped in flowery rhetoric." UBS noted that Powells failure to offer a stronger defense of the Feds independence could lead to: ① renewed inflation uncertainty; ② a potential additional full percentage point increase in real borrowing costs; and ③ ripple effects on fiscal policy, business investment, housing affordability, household savings, and speculative activity.According to Japans Asahi Shimbun: Japanese Minister of Economic Revitalization Ryo Akasawa is planning to travel to the United States on August 28.On August 27th, the three major U.S. stock indices closed slightly higher as investors shrugged off Trumps dismissal of a Federal Reserve governor—an action that could now lead to legal action.

The USD/JPY pair is climbing northward during the Asian session in an attempt to retake its two-week high at 135.58. The asset's price turned positive on Monday as a result of the abundance of bids that occurred near 134.50. The USD/JPY pair's two-day consolidated activity shows that market participants are anxiously awaiting the release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI).

 

Investors expect a decrease in price pressures this time, thus the release of the US inflation report is crucial. The investment community is aware that the crisis between Russia and Ukraine sharply increased oil prices, which continued to be essential to pressures on global costs.

 

A more than 11% drop in oil prices in July contributed to the black gold's continued sluggishness and lowered inflation expectations. The market anticipates that the inflation rate will decrease from 9.1% to 8.7%. The core CPI, which does not include food and oil, is anticipated to increase to 6.1% from the previously announced 5.9%. It appears that the demand for durable goods is rapidly increasing again. The US dollar index (DXY) is currently aiming to surpass the 106.40 immediate barrier.

 

The yen bulls are circling Tokyo as a result of Japan's government reorganization. Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki will probably remain in the cabinet after this week's reorganization by Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. All eyes will now be on the Japanese government's efforts to raise the labor cost index, which is essential for keeping inflation over 2%.
