On August 21st, it was reported that on August 20th, Wang Xingxing, Chairman, General Manager, and Chief Technology Officer of Unitree Robotics, stated at the 2026 World Robot Conference that Unitree Robotics continues to invest in the field of AI models, which is currently the area where Unitree invests the most funds and human resources. At the conference, Wang Xingxing publicly explained for the first time Unitree Robotics exploration of the concept of "self-evolution of physical AI robots." He stated that while AI has been widely applied to programming and various development processes in recent years, its application in the robotics field remains insufficient. Therefore, Unitree Robotics is promoting the construction of a self-evolution system for physical AI robot models: relying on cutting-edge large-scale models, setting corresponding rules, empirical constraints, and tool boundaries, allowing the model to autonomously search for cutting-edge papers, high-quality research results, and open-source solutions, and automatically generate robot control code.Japans national CPI rose 2% year-on-year in July, below the expected 1.90% and the previous reading of 1.60%.Japans core CPI rose 1.8% year-on-year in July, below the expected 1.80% and the previous reading of 1.60%.Japans July core CPI annual rate will be released in ten minutes.On August 21st, the Loan Prime Rate (LPR) remained unchanged for the 15th consecutive month. The Peoples Bank of China authorized the National Interbank Funding Center to announce on August 20th that the 1-year LPR was 3.0%, and the LPR for maturities of 5 years or more was 3.5%. Analysts believe that considering the current policy interest rates and banks net interest margins, the LPR remaining unchanged is in line with expectations. Since late July, the DR (Deposit-taking Financial Institutions Bond Repurchase Rate) benchmark lending rate has been continuously implemented, and the efficiency of LPR quotations is expected to further improve in the future.

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.
