August 29th - US President Trump: New York Governor Kathy Hozul supports Canada, not the United States, and Canada has been taking advantage of New York for years, especially during her tenure. Can you imagine her saying she doesnt respect or recognize "American Lakes"? This is why the "stupid Democrats" are so harmful to our country. Vote for Bruce Blackman as Governor of New York. He has my complete and utter support and will never let you down!On August 29th, CICC pointed out that Federal Reserve Chairman Warshs speech at Jackson Hole was hawkish: he acknowledged that inflation remained high, clarified that interest rates would remain the primary policy tool, and stated that he would "act as needed." He also cited economic resilience, stable employment, and loose financial conditions as evidence that current policy risks are more skewed towards inflation. He also attributed the 65-month period of excessive inflation to the central bank itself, correcting his ambiguous statement in July that "the market should raise rates in place of the Fed." CICC believes this speech helped rebuild the Feds credibility, and the market began trading on the marginal repair of policy credibility afterward. In the long term, Warsh still maintains that AI may reshape the economic and policy framework and continues to push for reforms such as reducing forward guidance. For the market, this statement increased the probability of a Fed rate hike this year, but even so, it is not necessarily purely negative. The market currently does not lack liquidity, but rather policy discipline and predictability. As long as inflation can be suppressed in a timely manner, it will actually benefit the market in the medium term.August 29th - According to the latest data released by the Nepalese police, as of 6:00 AM local time on the 29th, the death toll from flash floods in northern Nepal has risen to 616.

USD/CHF Consolidates in a Range of 0.9320-0.9350 on Expectations of Rate Reversion to Neutral

  • USD/CHF remained stuck around 0.9350 despite a big increase in US Treasury yields.

  • The DXY is aiming for 100.00 as traders increase their expectations for an aggressive rate hike.

  • Russia resigns from the United Nations Human Rights Council.

 

Since Thursday, the USD/CHF pair has been swinging within a narrow band of 0.9318-0.9348 as Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers have begun prescribing a reversion to neutral rates from ultra-loose monetary policy postures.

 

After commenting on the amount to which the Fed will raise interest rates in future monetary policies, members of the Fed's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) have changed their focus to calling for a return to neutral policy. The ultra-loose monetary policies and helicopter money used to boost growth following the Covid-19 outbreak have served their purpose, and it would be preferable to return to normal rates and a self-sufficient economy. Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic stated on Thursday that while it is quite acceptable for the Fed to move policy closer to neutral, it should go cautiously, according to Reuters.

 

On the Russia-Ukraine front, Russia is expelled from the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council after its members voted against the Kremlin's war crimes in Bucha, Ukraine. Additionally, US lawmakers have decided to prohibit Moscow from importing oil, gas, and coal. Additionally, the former has opted to revoke its 'Most Favored Nation' trade designation, resulting in higher tariffs for Moscow.

 

Meanwhile, the US dollar index is heading towards the enchanted level of 100.00, fueled by forecasts for better US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data next week. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note has recaptured a three-year high of 2.66 percent as rate rise worries resurface.
