May 1 (Reuters) - Ukrainian Ambassador to Japan Yuri Lutov stated that Japans easing of arms export restrictions creates an opportunity for future dialogue between the two countries regarding Japanese military equipment exports to Ukraine. In an interview with the media at the Ukrainian Embassy in Japan, Lutov said that the "Indo-Pacific region is inseparable from the European continent" and that "if Ukraine falls," it will have a "domino effect." He added that Japans move provides an "opportunity for dialogue," and Ukraine could receive funding from Japan to develop air defense systems, thereby reducing its dependence on US-made Patriot missiles.French Prime Minister: The countrys cybersecurity services will conduct attack scenario drills on the system.

Gold is trading at $1,778 per ounce, up 0.4% on the day, as the Express reports that at least two people were killed when Russian missiles landed in NATO-member Poland near the Ukraine border. According to a spokeswoman, Poland has scheduled a national security committee meeting. Prior to the announcement, the yellow metal was sliding.

 

The US Dollar was under pressure on Monday with the release of Producer Price Index data that mirrored the Consumer Price Index from the previous week. The DXY dropped to its lowest level since mid-August near 105.35 and was on track to test the low from August 10 near 104.636. However, bulls have moved in and are once again treading water. US yields responded proportionally to the PPI, which came in at 8.0% versus 8.3% predicted and 8.4% (was 8.5%) in September. In September, the core came in at 6.7% YoY compared to 7.2% predicted and real. Brown Brothers Harriman analysts argued, "The PPI data will do nothing to dispel the perception that the Fed is coming closer to a pivot."

 

In the meantime, the US 2-year yield is trading above 4.37 percent, barely above Thursday's previous low near 4.27 percent. The 10-year yield is currently trading near 3.80%, which is lower than its recent low near 3.810% on Thursday. Analysts at BBH suggested that yields are likely to continue exploring the downside this week until contrary data emerge.
