Indian government: Diesel sales in India rose 4.7% year-on-year in November, while gasoline sales rose 2.6% year-on-year.On December 6th, European Central Bank (ECB) Governing Council member Rehn stated that the medium-term inflation risks in the Eurozone are slightly tilted to the downside. He cited "relatively low energy prices, the appreciation of the euro, and expectations of slower inflation in the services and wage sectors" as downside factors. Factors pushing up inflation include "potential impacts on supply chains from geoeconomic fragmentation" and a stronger-than-expected economic rebound that could lower the savings rate. Rehn said, "We need to pay attention to both upside and downside risks." He refuted suggestions from some colleagues that another rate cut should be subject to high thresholds. Rehn stated, "We shouldnt impose any unnecessary constraints on our monetary policy, whether high or low thresholds. Its best to follow our strategy and be consistent in word and deed. I believe we will." When asked about ECB President Lagardes recent comments that the central bank is in a "good but not fixed" position regarding interest rates, Rehn agreed.December 6th - According to the Gaza Strip Media Office, since the ceasefire agreement took effect this year, Gaza has experienced a severe gas shortage. Originally, 660 gas delivery trucks were scheduled to enter Gaza, but only 104 have been approved so far, representing only about 16% of the agreed demand. This shortfall directly affects 2.4 million residents of Gaza, impacting essential sectors such as homes, hospitals, bakeries, and public kitchens. Currently, gas in Gaza is allocated based on the actual number of registered households to ensure fairness. Each household is allocated an 8kg gas cylinder per cycle, and can only collect it once per cycle. 252,000 households have already received their quotas, but the system targets approximately 470,000 households. Due to the continued shortage, each allocation cycle takes at least three months to complete the distribution to all registered households.Ukrainian President Zelensky: He spoke by phone with NATO Secretary General Rutte.Market news: The Indian government is preparing to take action against IndiGo, or may seek to remove IndiGos CEO.

During the Tokyo trading session, the GBP/JPY pair has extended its recovery and is seeking to cross the 168.00 threshold. As market sentiment improves, the cross approaches a two-week high close to 169.00. Despite projections of a slower pace of rate hikes by the Bank of England, the British pound is expected to continue its upward trajectory (BOE).

 

The public is still arguing if the Autumn Statement has restored confidence and capability in the UK's economic prospects or has worsened the forecasted picture.

 

Shell, a provider of renewable energy and energy solutions, is reconsidering its expansion plans in the British energy market after the incoming UK government announced windfall taxes. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Chancellor Jeremy Hunt increased the tax rate from 25% to 35% in the long-awaited "memorial service for Trussonomics."

 

The expanded tax mentioned in the Chancellor's Autumn Statement is leading Shell to reconsider a number of ongoing projects, including North Sea investments and renewable energy programs, according to David Bunch, chairman of Shell UK.

 

UOB economists maintain their prediction of a 50 basis point (bps) change in the United Kingdom's interest rate at its monetary policy meeting in December. They feel the BOE still has work to do, given that Hunt has decided to delay the majority of the severe repercussions of fiscal consolidation, which means fiscal policy will do little to combat inflation."

 

Prime Minister Fumio Kishida of Japan told Mainichi that investors in Tokyo are becoming anxious because the Japanese government expects to reshuffle its Cabinet before the end of the year. This may result in a period of Japanese yen volatility. On the economic front, Thursday's release of the PMI results is anticipated by investors. The Jibun Bank Manufacturing PMI is considered stable at 50.7. While Services PMI is expected to decline significantly to 53.1%, Manufacturing PMI is expected to climb marginally to 54.2%.
