Draft documents indicate that the European Commission will announce these measures on Wednesday, with the earliest possible release next month. The EU relies on imports for approximately 40% of its aviation fuel, half of which is imported via the Strait of Hormuz. While the EU expects sufficient aviation fuel in April to avoid shortages, supply pressures will intensify as the closure of key air routes extends. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines announced last week that it will cancel 80 flights to and from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport over the next month due to rising costs.According to Japans Kyodo News, no new anomalies have been found at the Fukushima Daiichi and Fukushima Daini nuclear power plants.On April 20th, Italian energy giant Eni discovered a large offshore natural gas resource in Indonesia, potentially helping the country alleviate impending energy shortages. According to an emailed statement from the company, the discovery at the Gerjira-1 well in East Kalimantan province contains 5 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 300 million barrels of condensate. Eni has a joint venture with Petronas, Malaysias national oil company. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Indonesias proven natural gas reserves are projected to reach 33.8 trillion cubic feet in 2024. This discovery comes at a time when Indonesia faces declining natural gas reserves and rising demand, potentially forcing the country to increase its natural gas imports. Although Indonesia is the worlds sixth-largest supplier of liquefied natural gas (LNG), its net exports are projected to decline by approximately 50% between 2010 and 2025, according to data collected by Kpler.

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.
