On June 9th, Mabrouk Chetouane, an analyst at Natixis IM, stated that although the market has fully priced in the European Central Banks (ECB) rate hike expectations for this week, ECB President Christine Lagarde still needs to proceed cautiously at the press conference, striving to portray this monetary tightening policy as a "dovish rate hike." The global head of market strategy said, "In fact, the current lack of clear signals that rising energy prices are having spillover effects on the real economy, coupled with the weakness of the European economic cycle, seems to support a more moderate approach to inflation." However, he also emphasized that, in accordance with its mandate and the creed of anchoring market expectations, the ECB Governing Council will still raise interest rates to enhance its credibility and demonstrate its responsiveness.French Foreign Minister Barrow: France is coordinating the implementation of sanctions with the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Norway.Britain and its allies have imposed sanctions on six entities involved in violence in the West Bank.Britain has imposed sanctions on networks that fuel violence among West Bank settlers.On June 9th, Jingfeng Medical (02675.HK) announced that its board of directors intends to exercise the general mandate granted by the resolution passed at the shareholders meeting on June 16, 2025, to use the share repurchase mandate to repurchase H shares in the open market from time to time with a total amount of up to HK$200 million, depending on market conditions.

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.
