According to U.S. sources on June 1, three unnamed U.S. officials stated that Secretary of State Marco Rubio approved last week a reduction in consular services at U.S. embassies and consulates in African countries, excluding 20 designated "hubs."

As a result, oil prices turned downwards, and short-term bearish pressure reappeared. This decline coincides with the negative signal released by the Relative Strength Index (RSI). Previously, the RSI formed a bearish divergence after a significant price increase, indicating that the market was severely overbought. This technical signal further exacerbated the technical pressure on the market. Meanwhile, the short-term downtrend remains dominant, with oil prices moving along the descending trendline, reinforcing bearish expectations and suggesting that negative sentiment may persist in the short term.

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.
