Recently, the United Nations passed regulations on intelligent driving, with all relevant regulations for Level 2 approved. This means that starting this December, Level 2 driving assistance functions such as NGP and NOA can be used and implemented globally, which is a very important milestone,” said He Xiaopeng, Chairman and CEO of XPeng Motors, in a recent interview. He stated that in the past, only China and the United States had truly achieved large-scale implementation of Level 2 assisted driving, while most regions around the world, including the European Union, had not yet followed suit.

Demand was unable to absorb the supply, and the market is once again discussing the issue of oversupply of crude oil.

Kit Haines, head of oil research at energy consultancy Energy Aspects, said, "The overwhelming sentiment in the market right now is bearish." Even before the US and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding in mid-June to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, suppliers in the Persian Gulf were already increasing shipments. In the weeks following the signing of the agreement, more than 60 million barrels of crude oil that had been trapped due to the outbreak of war flooded the market.According to TASS, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that its troops are clearing Ukrainian forces from the town of Leman.

In the early European session, the Gold price (XAU / USD) is exhibiting erratic movements near $1,994.00. The precious metal is in a state of indecision as investors await the release of preliminary S&P PMI data for the United States on Friday.

 

After violent swings influenced by the Federal Reserve's (Fed) Beige Book, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is showing signs of volatility contraction below 102.00. The declining trend of advances to consumer and business loans by U.S. commercial banks has intensified concerns of a recession in the U.S. economy, despite the fact that economic activity in 12 Fed districts remained virtually unchanged. To prevent a decline in asset quality, banks have tightened credit disbursement requirements.

 

In the meantime, S&P futures have recorded sizeable losses during the Asian session, as investors are wary of firms' comments regarding revenue guidance. The market anticipates that constrained credit conditions will impact the working capital management of cash-reliant companies, thereby affecting their output.

 

The market expects preliminary US S&P PMI data to reveal a Manufacturing PMI reading of 49.0, a decrease from the previous reading of 49.9. The Services PMI is anticipated to decrease to 51.5 from 52.6 previously reported.
