S&P expects French banks credit profiles to remain resilient in 2026.According to US media outlet Punchbowl, during the Supreme Court hearing of "Trump v. Fed Cook" today, Justice Roberts asked: If Cook made an "unintentional mistake" in mortgage application materials, where does the White Houses position lie? Whether it was an unintentional mistake or a fraudulent tactic to obtain a better interest rate, does it make no difference to the White House?On January 21, according to foreign media reports, US President Trump spoke about the Federal Reserve in his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Trump explicitly stated that his nominee for Fed Chair will be a man. This is consistent with the currently reported shortlist: White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett, Fed Governor Chris Waller, former Fed official Kevin Warsh, and BlackRock executive Rick Reid. Trump said, "I will announce a new Fed Chair in the near future. He will be a man. I think he will do a very good job and will be a very respected person." Trump added, "Every Fed Chair candidate has a great interview. But the problem is that once he takes office as Fed Chair, he changes his stance, which is somewhat disloyal. The changes a person can make once they get the Fed Chair position are astonishing. In short, Fed Chair Powell has been too slow in his actions on interest rates. I hope the new Fed Chair will do a good job."US President Trump did not specify what kind of agreement he wanted with Denmark regarding Greenland.US President Trump: Well see about Greenland.

The AUD/USD has dropped from its monthly high at 0.6990 due to poor Australian PMIs and a rebound in the DXY

After retesting the monthly high earlier in the day, the AUD/USD continued to slide in Friday's Asian trading. It drops back down to where it started the day, at 0.6916. Recent declines in the Aussie pair may be attributable to the poor prints of Australia's flash readings of S&P Global PMIs for July. The resurgence of the US dollar in the face of pessimistic attitude also affects the pair.

 

S&P Global Manufacturing PMI for Australia dropped to 55.7 in July from 56.2 in June and the 56.4 forecast. Additionally, the S&P Global Services PMI dropped to 50.4 during the mentioned month, which was below the 55.0 consensus and the 52.6 readings seen previously. Moreover, the S&P Global Composite PMI has dropped from 52.6 in prior readings to 50.6 today.

 

Conversely, as risk aversion returns to the market, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is gaining bids and is on track to revisit its intraday high at 106.70, up 0.12% on the day. It's worth remembering that the DXY dropped the day before because it was pegged to US Treasury rates, and that the benchmark 10-year bond coupons had their worst daily loss since mid-June.

 

The yield drop might be the result of a number of factors, including the European Central Bank's (ECB) surprise rate hike of 50 basis points (bps) and the implementation of a new tool known as the Transmission Protection Instrument (TPI) to manage irrational market dynamics in the area.

 

Additionally, the Nord Stream 1 pipeline from Russia restarting its gas exports to Europe boosted market sentiment and aided AUD/USD purchasers the day before.

 

In light of this, Wall Street benchmarks ended the day stronger and the 10-year Treasury rates for the US Treasury had their greatest daily decline in five weeks. However, as of the time of publication, S&P 500 Futures are down 0.50 percent.

 

The ECB's decision to limit the market's confidence as well as long-standing worries about a recession and COVID are the sources of the most recent dip in mood.

 

Nevertheless, the risk-off attitude may affect the AUD/USD pricing going ahead. However, pessimistic predictions for the US PMIs in July give purchasers reason for optimism.
