Russian air defense forces destroyed 49 Ukrainian drones during the night, including in the Chuvash region, Russian agencies reported.June 9, Morningstar analyst Seth Goldstein wrote in a report that the conflict between Musk and Trump could exacerbate Teslas (TSLA.O) stock price volatility. He added that if the conflict intensifies, Tesla could face company-specific impacts, which could include unfavorable autonomous vehicle regulations. Still, the U.S. government is unlikely to take retaliatory action, he said, and among Musks companies, SpaceX is most likely to be affected by the cancellation of government contracts. Currently, Morningstar maintains a fair value estimate of $250 for Tesla (TSLA.O). The stock closed at $295.14 last Friday.Morgan Stanley said on June 9 that OPEC+ may be significantly increasing oil production quotas to promote the restart of idle production capacity, but this shift has not yet translated into a significant increase in actual production. Analysts including Martijn Rats said: "Although the production quota increased by about 1 million barrels per day between March and June, the increase in actual production was difficult to detect." "It is worth noting that Saudi Arabias production does not seem to have increased significantly." In recent months, eight core members of OPEC have relaxed supply restrictions at a faster-than-expected rate, which may increase supply at a time when trade frictions threaten demand and make the global oil market turbulent. The outside world believes that this unexpected shift is OPECs attempt to regain market share from competitors and punish cheating in quotas.On June 9, Link REIT (00823.HK) issued an announcement stating that the board of directors of its manager Link Asset Management has noted certain media reports speculating that Link REIT may plan to spin off certain of its properties outside the Mainland and Hong Kong into separately listed entities.

In the early hours of Tuesday morning, GBP/USD retests intraday lows at 1.2020 as traders celebrate the return of Western traders after a lengthy weekend owing to American holidays. In addition to the return of the entire market, the traders of the Cable pair express concern over the Brexit deal negotiations and worries regarding the trust of small industries.

 

Late on Monday, the UK Times claimed that British Ministers are willing to resign over (Prime Minister) Rishi Sunak's Brexit proposal if it undermines Northern Ireland's position inside the United Kingdom. The Times said that "the hostility of euroskeptic Tory lawmakers to the accord is rising."

 

In another article, The Times quotes a Barclay's industrial poll to show that small business owners are becoming more hopeful about the future. The same adds to evidence that the United Kingdom's economic outlook may not be as grim as feared and stated in the press.

 

Concerns of a monetary policy divergence between the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England (BoE) appear to be weighing on the GBP/USD exchange rate, as seen by the week's mixed British results and the robust American data.

 

Notwithstanding this, yields on 10-year U.S. Treasury notes are near their highest levels since early November 2022, with bids hanging around 3.86 percent.

 

Meanwhile, geopolitical concerns emanating from China and Russia appear to enhance the safe-haven demand for the US Dollar and weigh on the GBP/USD exchange rate.

 

The initial figures of the S&P Global PMIs for February will be crucial for GBP/USD traders. To stabilize prices, however, favorable news from the United Kingdom is essential, since recent US Treasury bond yield movements have favored the US Dollar ahead of the most critical US PMIs.
