June 12th - Data released by the Federal Reserve on Thursday showed that the size of U.S. commercial paper increased in the week ending June 10th. In the latest week, seasonally adjusted outstanding U.S. commercial paper increased by $11.4 billion to $1.413 trillion. Unadjusted outstanding commercial paper decreased by $6.9 billion to $1.466 trillion. Some analysts believe that the unadjusted data is more reliable than the seasonally adjusted data because the latter is distorted by the financial crisis. Unadjusted outstanding commercial paper from foreign financial institutions decreased by $7.2 billion to $356 billion.S&P Global Ratings: Assigns Google an AA+ credit rating with a stable outlook.On June 12, the commander of the Hatem Anbia Central Headquarters of the Iranian Armed Forces stated that the United States, while talking about agreements and negotiations, is simultaneously taking malicious actions with ulterior motives.

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

Tips

  • 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.
