Italian Foreign Minister: Italy hopes to reach its 5% NATO defense spending target within the next decade.July 22 - According to the China Trade Remedy Information Network, on July 21, 2026, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) voted to initiate a Section 337 investigation (investigation code: 337-TA-1513) on certain negative electrode materials used in battery cells and batteries.Volkswagen Group China is accelerating the development of Level 3 and Level 4 autonomous driving capabilities by deepening its collaboration with Horizon Robotics in AI.

Meanwhile, SK Hynix turned negative at the close, after rising more than 9% in the morning session.July 22nd - Data released by the UK Office for National Statistics on Wednesday showed that consumer prices rose 2.6% in the 12 months to June, down from 2.8% in the previous month. This is the lowest inflation rate since March last year and is also lower than the average economist forecast of 2.7%. Expectations of an end to the Iraq War led to a sharp drop in crude oil prices, which in turn drove down petrol and diesel prices last month. Food and non-alcoholic beverage prices also contributed to the overall price decline. The services inflation rate, a key indicator of domestic inflation pressure closely monitored by the Bank of England, slowed to 3.6% from 3.7%, slightly higher than expected. However, the respite for consumers from the decline in inflation may only be temporary. Economists expect a 13% increase in the ceiling for UK household energy bills in July, resulting in a slight rebound in the inflation rate. The market widely expects the Bank of England to keep interest rates unchanged next week, as it needs to balance the threat of rising energy prices with a weak labor market and sluggish economic growth.

Gold Price Prediction: XAU / USD will continue to fluctuate above $1,900 despite a decline in US Inflation

Gold price (XAU / USD) is not in danger despite U.S. inflation figures meeting expectations. Since Monday, the precious metal has been fluctuating continuously between $1,895 and $1,913. The release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) failed to produce a significant reaction in the Gold price; however, the upside bias appears to be solidified as wagers on lesser rate increases from the Federal Reserve (Fed) have increased.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is protecting the critical support at 103.50, but it appears vulnerable to further losses as investors' risk appetite has dramatically increased. As market participants purchased S&P500 futures in response to higher odds of a smaller rate hike from Fed chair Jerome Powell, a likely recession in the US economy was postponed, signaling an uptick in optimism.

 

Contrary to the risk-on sentiment, demand for US Treasury bonds remained weak, causing 10-year US Treasury yields to rise above 3.68 percent.

 

The headline As anticipated, the US CPI increased by 0.4% on a monthly basis, and the annual figure decreased from 6.4% to 6.0%. In addition, the core CPI, which excludes crude and food prices, decreased to 5.5% from 5.6% previously. The Fed appears to be pleased with the persistence of a declining trend in US inflation.

 

In the future, investors will closely monitor the US Retail Sales (Feb) data. Monthly Retail Sales data is anticipated to decline by 0.3% compared to the previous release of a 3.0% increase. This indicates that the consumer spending rebound is over and the Fed is on course to achieve its inflation target of 2%.
