On September 10th, Politico reported that California Governor Gavin Newsom signed two bills on Wednesday aimed at regulating how external agencies can assess the safety of artificial intelligence (AI) programs. Anthropic had already supported these bills in August, and OpenAI also expressed its support on Wednesday—just before the Democratic governor formally approved the bills. Newsom stated, "Recent events have raised concerns that further confirm the long-standing consensus in California that while artificial intelligence holds immense potential, its development and deployment must be accompanied by effective safeguards to protect public safety." Previously, Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon announced his departure from the industry, citing concerns about AI going out of control. His related social media posts sparked heated online discussions, as people worried that AI could pose an existential threat.On September 10th, according to two sources familiar with the matter, the U.S. Department of Justice is investigating whether Nvidia (NVDA.O) attempted to circumvent antitrust scrutiny in connection with a deal signed last year with artificial intelligence chip maker Groq. Groq described the deal at the time as a "non-exclusive licensing agreement" allowing Nvidia to use Groq chips specifically designed by Groq for running AI tasks. As part of the arrangement, Groq CEO Jonathan Ross and COO Sonny Madeira joined Nvidia. AI companies have entered into numerous similar deals, including licensing technology and hiring key personnel from other companies, but without making direct acquisitions. These arrangements often circumvent the automatic government review of traditional mergers and acquisitions, which aims to determine whether a transaction would harm market competition.According to the New York Times, regulators are investigating a licensing agreement between Nvidia and Groq.September 10th - The seventh batch of national centralized procurement of medical consumables will open for bidding today (September 10th) in Tianjin.

The USD/CAD pair retraced below 1.3450 in the early Asian session as the US Dollar Index (DXY) lost upside momentum after reaching the key resistance level of 102.00. As investors anticipate the release of the United States/Canada Employment data, the Canadian dollar is expected to deliver a dazzling performance.

 

As a consequence of a decline in Job Openings and sluggish additions of new positions, as measured by Automatic Data Processing, firms have slackened recruitment efforts, thereby alleviating the tight US labor market. (ADP). This has led to expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will keep interest rates unchanged at its May meeting.

 

In the interim, S&P500 futures have resumed their downward trend, indicating a cautious market sentiment.

 

Employment data will influence the Canadian Dollar. The consensus estimate for Net Change in Employment is 12K, which is a decrease from the previous release of 21.8K. The estimated unemployment rate is 5.1%, up from 5.0% previously.

 

The USD/CAD exchange rate is exhibiting an Inverted Flag pattern on an hourly time frame. The Inverted Flag is a trend-following pattern that consists of a protracted consolidation followed by a decline. Participants prefer to enter an auction after a bearish bias has been established, and current vendors increase their position size during the consolidation phase of a chart pattern.

 

The Canadian dollar was unable to maintain a position above the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.3458, indicating that further declines are imminent.

 

Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has an upper limit of 60.00. A violation of the unfavorable 20.00-40.00 range will trigger downward momentum.

 

A break below the low of April 04, 1.3406, would expose the asset to a fresh six-week low around 1.3350, the low of February 6 followed by round-number support at 1.3300.

 

In an alternative scenario, a move above the psychological resistance of 1.3500 would lend momentum to US Dollar supporters, propelling the asset toward the 31- and 29-March highs of 1.3559 and 1.3619, respectively.
