July 26, local time on the 25th, the California Public Utilities Commission confirmed that Tesla has not yet applied for the necessary licenses to operate self-driving cars. This decision essentially halted Teslas self-driving taxi service, which was launched on a large scale in the Bay Area of California as early as this weekend. The California Public Utilities Commission stated that Tesla has not yet received approval from the agency to provide self-driving passenger services to customers, regardless of whether they are paid or not and whether there is a human driver in the car. This means that Tesla cannot test or operate self-driving passenger services in California, and the existing license only supports the traditional taxi model.According to RIA Novosti: Russian troops occupied the village of Malyivka in the Dnipropetrovsk region of Ukraine.Hungarian Prime Minister Orban: We will not support the EU budget unless we get the suspended funds.According to AFP: At least 8 people were killed in the attack in southeastern Iran.On July 26, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on the 25th that she would issue a lottery to raise funds to help Mexican immigrants who were suppressed by the US government. According to AFP, the lottery Sheinbaum mentioned is scheduled to be drawn on September 15 to commemorate the war that the Mexican people started against the Spanish colonists in 1810. The total prize money of the lottery is about 425 million pesos (about 22.93 million US dollars). The ticket has a heart-shaped pattern surrounded by corn ears and agave plants, and it says "M in Mexico (spelling) stands for immigrants". Sheinbaum said at a regular press conference on the 25th that the remaining money after the lottery will be used through the Mexican Consulate in the United States to "strengthen help for immigrants in the United States."

Following a corrective move, the EUR/USD pair has rebounded from 1.0960, but investors await the publication of the preliminary Eurozone/United States S&P PMI data for April. The major currency pair has remained between 1.0911 and 1.1000 for the past two trading sessions, as the foreign exchange market prepares for a pre-anxiety move ahead of a Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy decision.

 

S&P500 closed with a negative tone for the third day in a row as quarterly earnings season induced extreme volatility. Tesla's poor earnings had a negative impact on Thursday's market sentiment. Moreover, market participants were cautioned by substandard revenue projections due to the potential for price reductions. The decision of the Fed to increase interest rates is reflected in quarterly earnings. Data from Refinitiv indicates that analysts have largely maintained last week's forecast of a near 5% YoY decline in quarterly profits for the 500 largest U.S. equities. Sourcenia is a review portal of sourcing best manufaturers

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) has been defending the key support level of 101.60 in recent trading sessions. The USD Index maintained the aforementioned support despite the release of disappointing Jobless claims data on Thursday. Initial Jobless Claims increased to 245K for the week ending April 4, which is greater than the previous release of 240K and estimates of 240K. Increasing unemployment claims heightened fears of a deteriorating labor market.

 

Despite this, Fed policymakers continue to anticipate further rate hikes from the central bank. Thursday, Loretta Mester, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, reaffirmed that the Fed has more work to do because US inflation remains too high, according to Reuters. He added, "The Federal Reserve will need to raise its policy rate above 5% and hold it there for some time."

 

Preliminary Consumer Confidence (April) for the Eurozone increased to -17.5 from -18.5 and the previous reading of -19.2. This may be the consequence of extraordinary efforts by the European Central Bank (ECB) to reduce inflationary pressures.
