According to Saudi Arabias Al Arabiya television, Egypt claims that the attack on Saudi Arabia is a serious violation of international law.According to Saudi Arabias Al Arabiya television, Egypt has condemned the attacks against Saudi Arabia.Russia claims it has struck a Ukrainian metallurgical company that produces metals used in military equipment.On September 12th, CICC Research pointed out that the US August CPI rose 0.4% month-on-month (0.1% in the previous month) and 3.4% year-on-year (3.4% in the previous month); core CPI rose 0.3% month-on-month (0.2% in the previous month) and 2.4% year-on-year (2.5% in the previous month), slightly higher than market expectations. The month-on-month rebound in inflation was mainly due to rising energy prices, telecommunications price increases, and continued inflationary pressure from AI. CICC believes that this CPI report has reached the threshold for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates, and therefore expects the Fed to raise interest rates by 25 basis points at its meeting on September 16th. In addition, the Fed may lower the unemployment rate and raise its inflation forecast, and the dot plot may raise the interest rate path for 2027 and 2028, signaling a longer period of tightening. A more hawkish risk scenario is that there will be another rate hike this year or next year. If this occurs, the market may repric a longer-term rate hike cycle.September 12th - On September 12th, the Beijing-Xiongan Express Line, constructed and managed by Xiongan Group Rail Transit Company, officially commenced full-line trial operation. As a landmark project of the Beijing-Xiongan one-hour metropolitan area, this full-line trial operation marks a crucial step towards the integrated operation of the Beijing-Xiongan Express Line and the Beijing Subway Daxing Airport Line, accelerating the transformation of the "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei on Rails" from blueprint to reality.

USD/CHF Consolidates Around 0.9040 As Attention Shifts To US Inflation

The USD/CHF pair continues to trade lacklusterly above the crucial support level of 0.9036 in the early Tokyo session. Investors are shifting their focus to Wednesday's release of United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, making it difficult for the Swiss Franc to gain traction.

 

As tensions between China and Taiwan escalate, S&P500 futures have pared some of their gains. The market's anxiety has been alleviated by the increasing intensity of Chinese military exercises around Taiwan Island. In addition, concerns of a recession are likely to cause volatility in US equities.

 

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, stated in an interview with CNN that the recent banking turmoil caused by the dissolution of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank has increased the likelihood of a recession in the United States.  Despite the robustness and security of the banking system, the recent turmoil in the financial system is "another weight on the scale" toward recession, he added.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is protecting the 102.00 support level ahead of US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. According to the consensus, headline inflation will fall from 6.0% to 5.2%. In addition, the headline monthly CPI would decelerate to 0.3% from 0.4% previously reported. As a consequence of oil prices remaining low in March, inflationary pressures are anticipated to become evident.

 

In contrast, the core CPI, which excludes crude and food prices, is anticipated to increase to 5.6% from 5.5%. The tenacity of inflationary pressures is maintained by the resiliency of demand for essential products, as a result of a higher labor cost index. A similar event could compel the Federal Reserve (Fed) to raise rates again at its May monetary policy meeting.

 

Regarding the Swiss Franc, Swiss markets are suspended on Easter Monday. This week, the Producer Price Index (PPI) data will have an impact on the Swiss Franc.
