Sun Lei emphasized that this meeting was not a suitable forum for discussing the South China Sea issue, but China had to clarify its solemn position regarding erroneous claims. The "South China Sea Arbitration Case" violates the principle of "state consent." The "arbitral tribunal" exceeded its authority and rendered a wrongful judgment; its "award" is illegal and invalid. The "arbitration case" is a political provocation disguised as law, aimed at denying Chinas territorial sovereignty and maritime rights in the South China Sea. China has never accepted or recognized this "award," and Chinas territorial sovereignty and maritime rights in the South China Sea are unaffected by it under any circumstances.The UK unemployment rate was 4.46% in May, up from 4.40% in the previous month.Switzerlands trade balance in May was 6.11 billion Swiss francs, compared with 3.098 billion Swiss francs in the previous month.

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.
