On June 30th, the Wall Street Journal analyzed that although Federal Reserve Governor Cook emerged as a direct winner in the Supreme Court ruling, the biggest beneficiary might be Warsh, who just took office as Federal Reserve Chairman in May. The US Supreme Court ruled to prevent President Trump from removing Cook from office, reaffirming the protections granted to Federal Reserve governors by Congress. This means the president cannot easily remove a Federal Reserve governor on controversial grounds, thus limiting the space for pressuring the Fed through replacements and providing institutional guarantees for Warsh to lead the Fed more independently. The analysis points out that if the president could easily dismiss a Federal Reserve governor and replace him with a like-minded official, the Feds independence would be severely weakened, and Warsh would find it difficult to manage the institution. Investment manager Mark Spindall stated that allowing the president to remove governors on flimsy grounds and fill the vacancies with "loyalists" would undermine Warshs ability to focus on achieving the Feds policy objectives. However, the report believes that this ruling does not completely eliminate the possibility of presidential pressure on the Fed; the Feds future independence still depends on how Trump treats Warsh, whom he personally appointed, and whether the Supreme Courts 5-4 ruling will be upheld in future cases.Google (GOOG.O): Starting today, a free personalized photo generation feature is available to U.S. users in the Gemini app.Honeywell Aerospace CEO: Operating independently will allow the company to better support Boeing and Airbus in increasing production capacity.

The report states that Syria has demanded Israel withdraw its troops from the buffer zone, but the US believes Netanyahu is unlikely to approve the withdrawal before the election, which will be a major obstacle to normalization.Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman: The visit of US officials to Qatar is unrelated to the visit of the Iranian delegation to Doha, and there will be no talks with the US in the coming days.

Prior to the release of Australian employment data, the AUD/JPY pair attempts to regain 89.00

The AUD/JPY pair attempts to reclaim the critical resistance level of 89.00 during the Asian session. Kazuo Ueda, the governor of the Bank of Japan (BoJ), has advocated for an extension of the already decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy in order to consistently achieve an inflation rate above 2%.

 

The decelerating Producer Price Index (PPI) contradicts the optimistic outlook of the Japanese government regarding wage growth. As expected by market participants, the March PPI did not change. The annual PPI came in at 7.2%, which was higher than the consensus estimate of 7.1% but lower than the previous release of 8.1%. The inability of companies to sustain accelerating production rates at factory gates is indicative of weak household demand.

 

Analysts at Commerzbank anticipate that the Japanese Yen will only appreciate over the long term if the current monetary policy is abandoned quickly.

 

Regarding the Bank of Japan's (BoJ) Yield Curve Control (YCC), the IMF has stated that allowing more flexibility in YCC could have repercussions for global markets, but it could also prevent future policy shifts that could result in significant spillovers.

 

Investors are awaiting the March Employment Report for fresh impetus in the Australian Dollar. The market expects the Australian economy to add 20,000 employment, which is less than the previous estimate of 64.6K. While the Unemployment Rate is expected to rise to 3.6% from 3.5% in February, it is anticipated that the Unemployment Rate will increase to 3.6%.

 

Governor Philip Lowe of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has left the door open for additional rate hikes if Australian inflation persists, so the publication of stronger-than-expected employment gains could reignite fears of additional rate hikes.
