On March 1, in response to the heated argument with Ukrainian President Zelensky during the meeting on February 28, US President Trump said, "The meeting was not fruitful, and I think he (Zelensky) overestimated his abilities." Trump said that if he wanted to achieve an immediate ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, he only needed to sign a contract. He also warned Zelensky that without US support, "he cant win" and "it wont end well." As for whether he was considering cutting off aid to Ukraine, Trump said it didnt matter what he was considering, but he also told reporters, "You also saw what I went through today."Market News: Rostov, Russia is dealing with a Ukrainian drone attack.According to Japans Kyodo News: The foreign ministers of Japan and Mongolia will hold talks in Tokyo on March 4.On March 1, according to the Wall Street Journal, U.S. Defense Secretary Hegseth had his first call with senior Mexican military officials, but it did not go smoothly. According to people who listened to the briefing of the January 31 conference call, Hegseth told officials that if Mexico did not deal with the collusion between the government and drug cartels, the U.S. military was ready to take unilateral action. These people said that the Mexican senior officials who participated in the conference call were shocked and angry and felt that he was suggesting that the United States take military action in Mexico. Hegseths private warning now hangs over Mexicos trade negotiations with Trump. The concern on the Mexican side is that the request for Mexico to end fentanyl smuggling and immigrant trafficking is quietly supported by potential military action from the United States, not just a 25% tariff, which will weaken the countrys economy.March 1, according to the Associated Press, ordinary Ukrainians expressed support for Zelensky, calling him a defender of national interests. Zelensky had previously had a fierce quarrel with Trump in the White House. Many Ukrainians did not seem to be disturbed by the storm. They said that the Ukrainian leader defended the dignity and interests of the country.

GBP/JPY slips below 165 as BOJ prepared to act; UK retail sales are scrutinised

The GBP/JPY pair dropped below the crucial support level of 165 during the Asian session. The asset is falling precipitously now that the Wednesday buffer of 166.00 has been lost. The cross has developed a trading range between 164.80 and 165.87, and it is more likely than not that it will break to the downside and drop below 164.00.

 

The fall in the headline UK inflation numbers did not produce any gains for the pound bulls. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the year came in at 9.9%, which was less than both the predicted value of 10.2% and the preceding reading of 10.1%. The economy is no longer facing double-digit inflation, despite the fact that the current inflation rate of 9.9 percent is still relatively high, despite rising energy prices. But at 6.3%, the core CPI remained in line with forecasts.

 

Given that lower readings are not a permanent trend, it would be premature to declare an end to pricing pressures. Inflationary pressures will continue to rise as a result of Liz Truss, the new prime minister of the United Kingdom, introducing stimulus plans to shield people from rising energy prices and cut back on tax rates.

 

The UK Retail Sales numbers will be the topic of discussion on Friday. Compared to the 3.4% recorded earlier, the economic data are predicted to show a 4.2% annual loss. In addition, instead of the 0.3% increase previously indicated, the monthly figure will fall by 0.5%.

 

The Bank of Japan (BOJ) has vowed to interfere in the foreign exchange market to support the domestic currency, which has given the yen bulls a boost. Nikkei reported on Thursday that the BOJ carried out a foreign exchange "check" to find out how much market participants value the JPY. The news source claims that this is proof that the BOJ might be getting ready to intervene in the market.
