A report jointly released by the European Union Institute for Security Studies and the French think tank Institut Montaigne shows that Europe is facing a "gloomy future" due to factors such as dependence on US technology and structural weaknesses in Europes domestic chip industry.July 2nd - Two sources familiar with the matter revealed that Japan is gradually reducing its practice of issuing early warnings of intervention risks, instead taking more targeted actions to combat speculators and increase the cost of shorting the yen. The sources stated that, unlike previous cautious verbal warnings before intervention, the Ministry of Finance may suddenly intervene to clear speculative yen positions. Officials are also avoiding mentioning any specific "bottom line" exchange rate levels that might trigger intervention. This shift reflects a more aggressive strategy from the Ministry of Finance, using silence as a policy tool to make the market unpredictable. The sources indicated that this increases the risk of sudden intervention, and the driving factor for this intervention may be the accumulation of speculative short yen positions, rather than the yen exchange rate breaking through a publicly recognized threshold. Two other sources said that this move by the Ministry of Finance, along with the Bank of Japans continued hawkish rhetoric, indicates that both sides are taking coordinated action to curb yen shorting.The yield on Japans 30-year government bonds rose 4.5 basis points to 4.000%, the highest level since May 22.Nvidia: Will partner with AI Cloud to deploy large-scale, multi-tenant AI factories using a revenue-sharing and credit-support model.July 2nd - Recently, the China Meteorological Administration, in conjunction with the National Development and Reform Commission, issued the "National Meteorological Development 15th Five-Year Plan".

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.
