On July 24, in response to rumors that "Mercedes-Benz may suspend CLA production in China," Mercedes-Benz stated, "The CLA model is still in production, and monthly sales are relatively stable. As is customary, different production lines will rotate for high-temperature breaks, and we will also take this opportunity to conduct equipment maintenance."JPMorgan Chase raised its price target for Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO.N) to $690 from $600.JPMorgan Chase raised its price target for Nasdaq (NDAQ.O) from $112 to $114.On July 24th, three sources familiar with the matter revealed that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) is likely to maintain its warning about inflation exceeding its 2% target next week, but also hinted that these risks have not increased significantly compared to three months ago. The BOJ is expected to focus on the ongoing inflation risks from the Middle East conflict, strong global demand for artificial intelligence, and rising import costs due to a weaker yen in its quarterly outlook report to be released at its policy meeting next week. Meanwhile, the BOJ believes the likelihood of the worst-case scenario—a severe supply disruption triggering a price surge and forcing the central bank to raise interest rates rapidly—has decreased compared to three months ago. Furthermore, the statement made during its June rate hike that there is a risk of "potential consumer inflation deviating from and exceeding the 2% target" is expected to reappear. Sources said that with the risk of a short-term inflationary shock from oil prices easing, policymakers are now turning their attention to the extent to which businesses continue to pass on rising costs to households. This shift indicates that the BOJ is moving beyond the direct impact of the Middle East conflict and focusing on broader inflationary factors, including AI-related demand and a weaker yen, to assess the timing of the next rate hike.Iranian Foreign Minister: Once the government normalizes asset confiscation, no ones assets will be safe.

Despite a Mixed China PMI and a Strengthening USD, AUD/USD Remains below 0.7200

AUD/USD struggles to rebound from its intraday low of 0.7160, ending a three-day climb above the monthly high, as Australian traders review Chinese activity data and domestic housing data on Tuesday morning. In doing so, the Australian dollar pair splits a three-day uptrend and decreases daily from its highest levels since the beginning of May.

 

China's official activity statistics showed a dip in May, with the headline NBS Manufacturing PMI meeting market forecasts at 49.6 compared to 47.4 earlier, and the Non-Manufacturing PMI falling to 47.8 below the market's 50.7 forecast.

 

In addition, Australia's Building Permits declined by -2.4 percent in April, compared to the anticipated 2.0 percent increase and previous readings of -18.5 percent.

 

Despite bad data from Australia's largest client and lower housing statistics at home, AUD/USD traders can maintain recent gains due to the market's mixed attitude and the US dollar's recovery.

 

As bond buyers take a vacation in the early hours of Tuesday, market excitement wanes, supporting a slide in riskier assets such as stocks and commodities. In addition, developments in Europe and consolidation at the conclusion of the month undermined the earlier risk-on mentality. Futures for the S&P 500 retrace from a three-week high that was reached the previous day in order to retest the 4,155 level. In addition, 10-year US Treasury yields have risen by 8.5 basis points (bps) to 2.835% as of press time.

 

Given the US recovery and a shift in market sentiment, as well as bad data from China and Australia, it is anticipated that the AUD/USD exchange rate will continue to decrease. Nevertheless, risk catalysts and secondary US activity statistics for the month of May must be attentively examined.

Technical Evaluation

A AUD/USD decline remains elusive as of press time till the pair holds above a 13-day-old support line near 0.7135. To satisfy buyers, though, recovery moves must rebuild the monthly high near 0.7270 by the latest.
