July 5th - According to the Financial Times, Uber has suspended most of its European food delivery expansion plans as it continues its efforts to acquire its biggest competitor in Europe. Two sources familiar with the matter revealed that the company no longer plans to launch services in five of the seven countries it planned to expand into this year, including Austria, Norway, and Greece. This adjustment comes just five months after Uber announced its European food delivery expansion plans, which included entering markets such as the Czech Republic and Romania, and aiming to add $1 billion in total bookings over the next three years. However, Uber is still pursuing the acquisition of Berlin-based food delivery platform Delivery Hero. Its €10 billion takeover offer was rejected by Delivery Hero in May.According to the Financial Times, Frances efforts to exclude Britain from EU defense spending will backfire.On July 5th, the Iranian Foreign Ministry announced that the Yemeni Deputy Prime Minister visited Tehran to attend the funeral of former Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei and met with Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi on Saturday afternoon.

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.
