A Republican senator has proposed repealing Californias vehicle emissions regulations.U.S. EIA natural gas storage for the week ending July 31 was 33 billion cubic feet, compared with an expected 30 billion cubic feet and a previous reading of 28 billion cubic feet.The U.S. EIA natural gas storage data for the week ending July 31 will be released in ten minutes.On August 6th, Tesla (TSLA.O) announced that earlier this year, SpaceX and Tesla launched Project Terafab—the worlds largest chip manufacturing initiative, integrating logic chips, memory chips, and advanced packaging technologies within a single facility. In April, Tesla broke ground on its new R&D wafer fab at its Texas Gigafactory North Campus, the precursor to Terafab. Today, we are officially announcing that Terafab will be located in Grimes County, Texas. This facility will be an advanced semiconductor wafer fab designed to bridge the huge gap between current global chip supply capacity and future computing demands. SpaceX and Teslas combined chip demand is projected to exceed 1 terawatt (TW) of computing power, a scale far exceeding current global supply capacity. We are highly grateful to existing chip suppliers and encourage them to expand capacity where possible, but the widening gap between future supply and demand is the core reason for the existence of Project Terafab. Terafab aims to manufacture new computing power at an unprecedented scale and speed. The project plans to build a vertically integrated factory with a manufacturing area exceeding 100 million square feet. The facility will encompass the manufacturing, packaging, and testing of advanced logic and memory chips. Centralizing these processes in one location will facilitate rapid iterative improvements and accelerate the deployment of new computing capabilities.Tesla (TSLA.O): TeraFab aims to produce more than 1 terawatt of computing power per year.

After plunging below 142.60 during the Asian trading session, the EUR/JPY pair's three-day losing trend was extended. Renewed rumors of an expansion of the Bank of Japan's (BoJ) Yield Curve Control (YCC) are exerting immense pressure on the cross.

 

The Japanese economy is experiencing gradual wage growth, and inflation is expected to respond to recent increases in crude oil prices. Analysts at Wells Fargo believe the BoJ will take advantage of a tactical opportunity to further modify its policy settings in the fourth quarter of 2022, and are inclined toward a meeting in October. They added that this timeframe is optimal for a smooth policy adjustment, as monetary easing from the Federal Reserve (Fed) and other major central banks should alleviate yield pressure.

 

In particular, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will raise the target yield for 10-year Japanese government bonds (JGBs) from 0% to 0.25% and increase the tolerance interval surrounding this target to +/- 75 basis points.

 

Accelerating PMIs in the Eurozone provide support for the European Central Bank's sustained rate hikes. (ECB). S&P Global reported a Composite PMI of 53.7 on Wednesday, which was higher than the previous release of 52.0 but below expectations of 54.1, the highest level in the past ten months.

 

According to Reuters, S&P Global issued the following statement: "Manufacturing production increased slightly, but the service sector had the greatest impact on March's accelerated growth."

 

Wednesday, ECB policymaker Boris Vuji stated regarding interest rate forecasts, "The majority of the rate-hiking cycle has passed." He added, "We may require additional rate increases to address core inflation."
