US President Trump: We are considering bailing out Spirit Airlines.US President Trump: (Regarding tariffs on EU cars) The EU has not complied with the agreement.US President Trump: I am not satisfied with the latest proposal (regarding Iran).May 2nd - A report reveals that Iran is considering using mine-laden dolphins to force its way through the Strait of Hormuz, which has been under a US military blockade for weeks, inflicting devastating economic damage on Iran. Although a tense, long-standing ceasefire remains in place with the US, a growing number of Iranian hardliners believe that the economic crisis triggered by the US blocking Iranian oil exports is tantamount to an act of war. Therefore, they are calling for a resumption of military action. According to the Wall Street Journal, citing Iranian officials, such military action could include using weapons never before deployed in combat to attack US warships deployed in the region—mine-laden dolphins being one such weapon.On May 2nd, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on social media on May 1st that reforms to the Ukrainian military will begin in June, focusing on a significant increase in the salaries of frontline combat personnel, particularly infantry. Furthermore, starting this year, the Ukrainian military may implement phased retirements. Zelenskyy stated that the military command and government departments had previously reached an agreement on key areas of the military reforms, and details will be finalized over the next month. He said the reforms will significantly increase financial support for the military, with substantial increases in the salaries of commanders, officers, and non-commissioned officers, with combat personnel receiving salaries several times higher than those in rear-area positions. Zelenskyy demanded that service terms be clearly defined in conscription contracts, and if possible, starting this year, military personnel will be retired in phases according to clearly defined time standards.

The EUR/USD rise is getting close to 1.0200 as investors await US inflation data

The EUR/USD moves in the 1.0200 range during Tuesday's Asian session after falling from 1.0221 as traders look for fresh data. The major currency pair gained over the first part of the week but lost some of those gains by Monday's close. Recent price fluctuations, however, seem to be constrained by a lack of noteworthy data or events and a cautious attitude ahead of Wednesday's release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for July.

 

Gains in the EUR/USD the day before are shown by higher readings of the Eurozone Sentix Investor Confidence Index and a drop in US Treasury yields. The primary sentiment indicator Index, however, increased in August from -26.4 to -25.2, which was projected to be the value. According to specifics, the eurozone's present state has improved from this month's lowest position since March 2021, when it was -16.5, to -16.3. The expectations index is at its lowest level since December 2008, despite a little increase to -33.8. It is still very close to that level. The US Dollar Index (DXY), in contrast, saw a daily decrease of 0.19 percent to 106.37.

 

The moderate Azione's resignation from the newly formed alliance ahead of the September elections looks to have put negative pressure on the Euro elsewhere due to Italian political worries.

 

The moderate Azione has backed out of its coalition with the Democratic Party and the +Europe party after only agreeing to do so last week. According to party leader Carlo Calendar, "the parts didn't fit." According to Reuters and Market News Publishing US, the alliance was formed in an effort to stop a more conservative government from taking office after the election on September 25.

 

Notably, gains in the EUR/USD the day before appeared to have been constrained by US President Joe Biden's displeasure of China's efforts to retake Taiwan and his censure of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taipei.

 

These actions caused the 10-year US Treasury rates, which had increased by 14 basis points (bps) the day before, to fall by around seven basis points (bps) to 2.75 percent. Wall Street also started Monday's trading day on a positive one before ending on a mixed note, albeit as of press time, S&P 500 Futures are showing minor gains.

 

Participants in the EUR/USD market may be interested in the second quarter's (Q2) US Nonfarm Productivity and Unit Labor Costs data. Forecasts suggest that US Nonfarm Productivity may rise to -4.6% from -7.3%, while Unit Labor Costs may decrease to 9.5% from 12.6%. The news regarding Taiwan and Russia will also be important for determining direction.
