According to the UAE news agency, Trump discussed cooperation between the UAE and the United States and ways to further strengthen relations in support of common interests.August 18th - Investors have reason to worry about inflation, but this may not be the primary reason for rising bond yields. In fact, inflation expectations, as measured by the breakeven rate, are quite close to the Federal Reserves long-term target of 2%. Capital.com analyst Daniela Hathaway stated, "Investors can be confident that inflation will average around 2%-2.5% in the long run, but this forecast is becoming less certain due to oil, tariffs, fiscal policy, and other supply shocks." She added that the bond sell-off is driven by "persistent inflation risks, massive government borrowing, and increasingly fierce competition for capital, rather than simply a sharp rise in expected inflation itself."International Atomic Energy Agency: No nuclear safety or security damage was reported following the drone explosion.On August 18, Qatari Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Majid Ansari stated that Qatars current diplomatic efforts are primarily focused on de-escalating the crisis and preventing further escalation. The solution lies in achieving a ceasefire between the US and Iran, opening the Strait of Hormuz and guaranteeing freedom of navigation, while simultaneously pushing the US and Iran back to the negotiating table. Ansari noted that Qatar and Pakistan previously mediated a memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran, and Qatar is working to restore dialogue between the two sides and implement the memorandum. However, due to the breach of the ceasefire, the relevant provisions have not been fully implemented. Currently, Qatar is awaiting an agreement between Oman and Iran on the Strait of Hormuz issue, hoping to use this to resume the negotiation process and prevent further escalation. Ansari also stated that the current priority is to reach an agreement that simultaneously ensures the opening of the Strait of Hormuz and a ceasefire. Qatar will continue to push all parties involved to return to negotiations to implement the previously reached memorandum of understanding or to reach an agreement to end the war.The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) reported that the explosion injured or killed 16 employees and contractors, including one fatality and three serious injuries.

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.
