July 3 – Under revised disclosure requirements, European asset management companies are no longer required to report ESG data for all assets they hold. The European Commission stated that asset management companies with a “fiduciary duty” to clients and managing portfolios under a “mandate with clients” are exempt from providing such information. This is part of the revised EU sustainability reporting standards published on Friday. These requirements, officially known as the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), detail how companies should comply with the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. The Commission conducted a public consultation on its proposed “authorization bill,” the initial draft of which was published in May and received over 400 responses. EU authorities have spent months revising the ESRS as part of a broader EU initiative to simplify reporting requirements and enhance competitiveness. In a statement, the European Commission said the revised standards reduce the number of data points companies must report by more than 60%.German Chancellor Merz: I cannot criticize Lithuanias move to end the nuclear weapons ban.Indias Trade Minister: Merchandise exports are expected to grow by 16% to 17% this year.German Chancellor Merz: (Regarding Trumps remarks) will raise the issue of Germany and Europe increasing their contributions to NATO at next weeks NATO summit.According to the Shanghai Stock Exchanges official website, the IPO application status of Duality Biotherapeutics Inc. on the Science and Technology Innovation Board has changed to "under inquiry".

WTI advances toward $75.00 as China-related demand optimism offsets recession fears

In the early hours of Monday, WTI steadily climbs near the intraday high of $74.70 as bullish emotion competes with economic slowdown worries. Despite this, the weaker US Dollar and a light schedule allow buyers of black gold to maintain control following Friday's mixed performance.

 

In spite of this, the risk profile remains elevated in light of China's reopening of its borders after a three-year closure. On the same line, Guo Shuqing, party secretary of the People's Bank of China, made his remarks (PBOC).

 

Reuters, transmitting China unlock news, claimed that "about 2 billion journeys are anticipated this season, roughly doubling the volume of previous year, and recovering to 70% of 2019 levels," citing a statement from the Chinese government.

 

On the other side, PBOC's Shuqing stated, "The world's second-largest economy is likely to recover rapidly due to the country's optimal Covid-19 response and the continued implementation of its economic policies."

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) fell the most in three weeks the day before, down 0.20% intraday to 103.70 as of press time, as the US employment report failed to excite greenback purchasers and the US activity numbers stoked fears of an economic slowdown. It's worth mentioning that the previous day's disappointing US wage growth, ISM Services PMI, and Factory Orders weighed on Treasury bond yields and the DXY.

 

On a different page, reports regarding a delay in the restoration of the colonial pipeline and the Russia-Ukraine conflict appear to also benefit energy buyers. Traders fear additional rate hikes ahead of the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for December from China and the United States on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, which tests the positive momentum.
