According to Iranian state television, Iran and Iraq have signed a comprehensive security agreement.Ukrainian President Zelensky: We will give a clear response to the Russian drone attack on a shopping mall in Ukraine.August 22 – Maritime Piracy Watch reports a resurgence of piracy off the coast of Somalia following two new attacks this week. Meanwhile, two major conflicts in the region continue to distract and deplete naval forces, putting pressure on local maritime security. Last month, the Houthi rebels in Yemen announced a blockade of Saudi ports and attacked several ships, forcing many vessels to avoid the area. At the same time, the war with Iran has disrupted shipping, with dozens of cargo ships attacked in the Persian Gulf and surrounding waters. The report states that two ships were attacked by Somali pirates, further exacerbating concerns about a rise in piracy this year. Between 2008 and 2010, Somali pirates attacked hundreds of ships, forcing some shipowners to circumnavigate the African continent for safety. International Maritime Bureau official Cyrus Modi stated, “Although there is still a naval presence in the region, Somali pirates may have found an opportunity due to the higher priority given to other maritime security threats. They have been effectively contained and combated for over a decade.”The French presidential palace announced that Saudi Arabia and France will sign several cooperation agreements during the Saudi Crown Princes visit, covering areas such as transportation, energy, and health.On August 22, Brazilian President Lula da Silva called US President Donald Trump on Friday, urging him to restart negotiations on US tariffs on Brazil in an effort to ease tensions with Washington ahead of Brazils October elections. In a statement, the Brazilian government said Lula dismissed US accusations of unfair trade practices against Brazil, which led to the imposition of a 25% tariff on many Brazilian goods. During the more than one-hour call, Lula told Trump that the accusations were "baseless." The Brazilian side stated that Trump proposed a meeting between government officials from both countries as soon as possible. This was the first phone call between the two leaders since relations deteriorated again in May.

The difficulties that the USD/JPY pair met around 133.00 during the Asian session are now in full force. As investors predict a disappointing result from the US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data, the asset has printed a low of 132.77 and is projected to decrease further to about 132.00.

 

JP Morgan experts projected that the US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) will be poorer than expected at 200K in the July labor market statistics, compared to the consensus expectation of 250k jobs gained in the month. The US economy produced 372k new jobs in the labor market in June. The labor market is under great pressure as a result of data showing a continued fall in job creation. The unemployment rate, though, will be constant at 3.6 percent.

 

Increased labor market dangers are a result of rising interest rates and their compounding impacts. Due to pricey dollars, business players are unable to invest without reluctance. Low investment possibilities cannot thus speed the process of creating jobs.

 

Despite the Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers' enhanced interest rate ambitions, the US dollar index (DXY) has thrown up the support of 106.00. According to Cleveland Fed President Loretta J. Mester, ending the policy tightening program without detecting a decline in the inflation rate for several months is not conceivable at interest rates above 4 percent .

 

Tokyo's entire household expenditure has dramatically climbed from the previous report of -0.5 percent and the predictions of 1.5 percent to 3.5 percent. As an inflation indicator, the economic data may aid the yen bulls. The economic data have greatly improved, which means that the inflation rate may climb much further. The findings may, however, be largely impacted by growing energy expenditures. However, a hike in the labor cost index is shortly to come in order to keep the inflation rate over 2 percent.
