On August 22, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghae said that the United States announcement of new economic sanctions against Iran goes far beyond an ongoing illegal "economic war" against a single country and has no basis in international law. Baghae posted on social media early on August 22 that such sanctions violate the principle of sovereign equality in the UN Charter. This "economic coercion that forces a sovereign state to change its legitimate policy choices" constitutes a completely illegal act.On August 22, it was reported that on August 21, the foreign ministers of eight countries—Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar—issued a joint statement condemning Israels continued illegal settlement policy in the occupied Palestinian territories and firmly opposing the "E1 Block" settlement plan and related settlement activities in East Jerusalem.

What about your wife, your children? Your family? So I put tariffs in fifth place... Now I have no problem with the media."

Price Analysis of the US Dollar Index: DXY Retreats from 104.00, Rising Wedge Anticipated

During Thursday's Asian session, the US Dollar Index (DXY) fails to continue the previous two days' upward momentum, trading on the defensive around 103.95.

 

In doing so, the dollar index remains near the 20-year high reached earlier in the week, but for the first time in three days, the daily decline is recorded.

 

In addition to highlighting a 12-day-old rising wedge bearish pattern surrounding the multi-day top, the DXY's most recent decline also reveals a multi-day top-adjacent rising wedge formation. The slow RSI also highlights the significance of the chart pattern.

 

However, a decisive breach below 102.90 is required to validate the potential decline to 101.30.

 

During the fall, the 100-SMA and monthly low between 102.65 and 102.35 will serve as intermediate stops.

 

Until the quote continues below the indicated wedge's resistance line, approximately 104.30 as of press time, a recovery appears elusive.

 

After that, a slow climb to the September 2002 high of 109.80 cannot be ruled out.
