Phil Flynn, senior analyst at Price Futures group: There seems to be some profit-taking in the oil market due to concerns that OPEC will increase production by more than expected.July 5, Swissquote senior market analyst Ipek Ozkardeskaya: The preference for the US dollar is weakening. First, concerns about US debt are rising, and second, the preference for US debt is facing risks. Another reason is that the tariff situation and trade disruptions will have a negative impact on US economic growth, and the Federal Reserve may not be able to support the economy when inflation risks rise.July 5th news: On July 4th local time, a federal judge in the United States briefly halted the Trump administrations plan to deport eight immigrants to South Sudan in order to buy time for their lawyers to state their claims in a Massachusetts court.On July 5, institutional analyst Javier Blas said that OPEC+ representatives are discussing a fourth consecutive increase of 411,000 barrels per day, but there is also the possibility of a "slightly larger" increase. According to the increased UAE quota, OPEC+ will return about 2.5 million barrels per day of production to the market. So far, about 1.4 million barrels per day have been returned (one increase of 138,000 barrels per day and three increases of 411,000 barrels per day). Next, the remaining increase may be divided into three monthly increases (two 411,000 barrels per day and one about 275,000 barrels per day).

Bank of England says blockchain roll-out across all markets too challenging

According to Bank of England Deputy Governor Jon Cunliffe, using the blockchain technology that underlies cryptoassets to provide rapid trading and settlement across all financial markets is not desired given the difficulties it would provide.


The same amount of resilience that regulators anticipate from the current system must be delivered by new trading and settlement systems, according to Cunliffe.


It was not apparent how blockchain-based platforms and current technology would interact, and instantaneous settlement necessitates that money and securities be available at the moment a deal is made.


"There is just not enough time to find or fix mistakes before they are carried out. In other words, we may not desire completely instantaneous trading and settlement in all markets, Cunliffe said at a conference organized by the trade group AFME.


Since stock and bond transactions are now resolved two business days after the transaction, banks are exposed to risk and may experience significant market fluctuations during this period, which they must cover with cash for margin and capital.


In order to reduce this to one working day, the United States has set a target of March 2024, putting pressure on Europe to follow suit.


For quick trading and trade settlement to reduce costs and risks, distributed ledger technology or blockchain is already being tested in experimental programs.
