Irans ambassador to the United Nations: Actions against Irans nuclear facilities could lead to dangerous leaks and would be a "war against all humanity."Iranian President Pezhichyan: All measures must be aimed at maintaining national unity. Through unity, we will overcome any crisis.June 18, Capital.com analyst Daniela Hathorn said in a report that the latest inflation data in the UK is unlikely to affect the Bank of England to resume cutting interest rates. The annual rate of CPI in the UK slowed down moderately to 3.4% in May from 3.5% in April. Although not catastrophic, these data did not impress those who hoped for a stronger trend of inflation decline. The market generally expects the Bank of England to keep the interest rate unchanged at 4.25% in Thursdays interest rate decision.June 18th, John Velis, macro strategist for the Americas at Bank of New York Mellon, said that no interest rate changes are expected at the upcoming Federal Reserve meeting, but the new Summary of Economic Projections may affect the market. The dot plot will indicate that the rate cut in 2025 will be lower than previously expected. Given that the market expects nearly two rate cuts this year, a more hawkish dot plot may disrupt the market. The Federal Reserve has become increasingly cautious about cutting interest rates in 2025, noting that inflation remains the top priority for most members who have shared their ideas. Given the continued uncertainty in policy, the Federal Reserve is unlikely to soften its interest rate views. After June, there are only four Federal Reserve meetings left this year, and it seems increasingly unlikely that there will be time for aggressive easing during the year.Hong Kongs Hang Seng Index closed at 23,710.69 points on June 18 (Wednesday), down 269.61 points, or 1.12%.

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%.
