On September 15th, according to a European Commission document, the EU will propose a restriction banning children under 15 from using social media, video-sharing platforms, AI chatbots, and online games. This will be the most comprehensive plan the EU has proposed to date to protect children from online risks. This EU proposal is part of the "EU Kids Act," and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and EU technology chief Henna Verkunin will announce the plan on Thursday. Von der Leyen may reveal some details in her annual EU policy speech on Wednesday. The document states: "The EUs approach should allow minors to enjoy the enormous potential of digital services while preventing them from being abused and commercialized online. It is necessary to limit the ability of technology companies to access and influence children, rather than the other way around, limiting the children themselves." The European Commissions proposal will also cover video game platforms and allow for phased access restrictions on different services based on age. Furthermore, the obligations imposed on businesses will depend on the type of service and the childs age.French Foreign Minister Barro: Russias attack on the railway near the Ukrainian-Polish border is unacceptable; the targeted train was only a few hundred meters from the EU and NATO borders.

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.
