June 6th - According to the Financial Times, Meta Platforms (META.O) is considering raising tens of billions of dollars through a stock offering to seek new sources of capital to support Mark Zuckerbergs ambitious plans in artificial intelligence, following Googles record $85 billion stock deal this week. According to three sources familiar with the matter, executives at the social media company have been exploring "innovative" fundraising methods as the company plans to significantly increase its AI-related capital spending to as much as $145 billion this year, with further increases planned for 2027. The discussions have intensified following Alphabets successful funding round this week—which was driven by strong investor demand and increased by $5 billion from the original plan—sources said. However, Meta has not yet hired investment banks and may ultimately not issue new shares. One source cautioned that it is too early to say how the company has decided on its course of action, as all fundraising options are still under consideration.According to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), in the week ending June 2, speculators increased their net short positions in CBOT U.S. 2-year Treasury futures by 94,942 contracts to 1,350,188 contracts, U.S. 5-year Treasury futures by 46,091 contracts to 1,369,218 contracts, U.S. 10-year Treasury futures by 41,621 contracts to 829,575 contracts, and ultra-long-term Treasury futures by 27,868 contracts to 287,710 contracts.New York silver futures fell below $68 per ounce, down 8.08% on the day.Bank of England Governor Bailey: Artificial intelligence will grow faster than any previous innovation.According to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), as of the week ending June 2, speculative net long positions in COMEX silver futures increased by 188 contracts to 10,433 contracts.

NZD/USD falls rapidly from 0.6260 when the RBNZ announces a decline in inflation projections to 3.07 percent

The NZD/USD pair has encountered selling pressure while attempting to surpass the immediate resistance level of 0.6260. The asset has seen bids after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) announced inflation estimates at 3.07 percent, down from 3.29 percent previously. It could be an indication of waning price pressure, but additional evidence is still needed to support the argument.

 

Price pressures in the New Zealand economy are increasing and have not yet shown signs of weariness. A June report indicates that an inflation rate of 7.3% is adequate to generate headwinds for families. The RBNZ is consistently escalating its policy tightening measures to combat the same. RBNZ Governor Adrian Orr has already increased the Official Cash Rate by 2.50 percentage points.

 

On the front of the US dollar, the US dollar index (DXY) has returned all intraday gains and is currently trading near the day's open at 106.60. While attempting to break over the crucial resistance level of 106.80, the DXY has encountered selling pressure. This week, investors' attention is centered on Wednesday's release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI).

 

The annual inflation rate is projected to continue at 8.7 percent, down from 9.1 percent in the previous report. Oil prices have been on a downward trend in July, which may be the determining factor for a significant decline in the price increase index. While the US CPI excluding volatile food and oil prices may increase from 5.9 percent to 6.1 percent, the previous reading was 5.9 percent.
