Market news: Ukraine has proposed a ceasefire in the Black Sea to Russia.According to Saudi media Alhadath: The Saudi Arabian Defense Minister met with the Chief of Staff of the Iraqi Armed Forces Command to discuss relations in the military and defense fields.On August 14th, it was learned from the China Geological Survey of the Ministry of Natural Resources that a research team from the Institute of Geology, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, has made new progress in their study of lunar soil samples from Change 6, providing new evidence for solving the mystery of the stark differences between the two sides of the moon. The research team believes that the clue to the drastically different lunar surfaces lies in the ancient impact that formed the South Pole-Aitken Basin. Research shows that this impact, after the consolidation of the lunar magma ocean, continued to profoundly modify the lunar crust and upper mantle, completely altering the local material composition of the far side. This research provides new scientific evidence for understanding the differences between the two sides of the moon and advances humanitys understanding of the moons complex evolutionary history.On August 14th, the Houthi rebels in Yemen claimed on the 13th that they had used drones to attack a Saudi Aramco oil refinery in Jizan, southwestern Saudi Arabia.

The EUR/GBP pair extended its recovery above 0.88 during the Asian trading session. Anticipating that the European Central Bank (ECB) will continue to raise interest rates to combat persistent inflation, the cross has depreciated progressively. Friday will see the publication of preliminary Eurozone Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (Q4) figures. Prior to the publication of these figures, it is anticipated that the asset will exhibit explosive activity.

 

It is anticipated that the preliminary Eurozone HICP will decelerate significantly from 8.5% to 7.3%. While it is anticipated that the core HICP will rise to 5.7% from 5.6% in the previous release. Weak energy prices are anticipated to have a significant impact on Eurozone inflation. In light of Christine Lagarde's prediction that inflation will remain elevated for an extended period of time, the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to continue tightening monetary policy.

 

In the interim, banking tensions are subsiding as the absence of information regarding additional collateral damage has a positive impact on the market. Chief Economist Philip Lane stated on Wednesday that ECB interest rates must rise if banking tension has no or a "relatively limited" impact.

 

Investors avidly anticipate the United Kingdom's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data. According to the consensus, the United Kingdom's growth in the fourth quarter of CY2022 remained unchanged. It is anticipated that the annual GDP will remain unchanged at 0.4%. It is expected that the British economy will undergo a severe recession as a result of high inflation and sluggish growth.

 

The Bank of England (BoE) policymakers appear confident that inflation will moderate in the near future and that the unexpected rise in February's inflation was a one-time anomaly; however, the absence of evidence raises doubts. If inflation persists, BoE Governor Andrew Bailey stated that additional rate increases would be announced. In contrast, Bank of America (BoA) analysts anticipate that the Bank of England (BoE) will not increase rates and will maintain current levels until 2024.
