According to Fox News: US Middle East envoy Witkoff said a meeting on the Gaza issue will be held at the White House on Wednesday.On August 27, UBS reported that Federal Reserve Chairman Powells speech at Jackson Hole was "classic Powell style," signaling a higher probability of a September rate cut to offset the drag of trade tariffs, but lacking guidance on a medium-term policy framework for economies facing structural change. While the market welcomed the hint of a rate cut, the bank believes its core message is essentially "data-dependent rhetoric wrapped in flowery rhetoric." UBS noted that Powells failure to offer a stronger defense of the Feds independence could lead to: ① renewed inflation uncertainty; ② a potential additional full percentage point increase in real borrowing costs; and ③ ripple effects on fiscal policy, business investment, housing affordability, household savings, and speculative activity.According to Japans Asahi Shimbun: Japanese Minister of Economic Revitalization Ryo Akasawa is planning to travel to the United States on August 28.On August 27th, the three major U.S. stock indices closed slightly higher as investors shrugged off Trumps dismissal of a Federal Reserve governor—an action that could now lead to legal action.

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.
