According to RIA Novosti, Ukrainian armed forces attacked a bus carrying children from Belarus in the Bryansk region.According to Hong Kong Stock Exchange documents, Beijing Rongxin Digital Technology Co., Ltd. has submitted a listing application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.June 17th - The market generally believes that the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates unchanged. However, uncertainty lies in the economic outlook and how new Chairman Warsh will lead the Fed. The Fed currently faces a resilient job market, strong consumer spending, and inflation still above target. However, the high price readings may decline later this year. Furthermore, Fed watchers expect Warsh to attempt to reshape some of the Feds communication and policy decision-making practices. While its unclear how much will change at the first meeting, its widely expected that he will move in the following directions: reduce the Feds forward guidance on interest rate expectations; possibly abolish the so-called "dot plot," with some suggesting Warsh might not even submit his own forecasts at this meeting; and reduce the frequency of press conferences. Nancy Houten, chief US economist at Oxford Economics, expects the Fed not to raise rates in June, but will adjust its wording, removing any dovish signals. At the last meeting, some members wanted a more open-ended approach, rather than implying that the next step would definitely be a rate cut. While the market has already priced in the possibility of a rate hike later this year, the baseline forecast is a rate cut in December. However, the economist acknowledges the risk that a rate cut may occur later than December.Tencent Holdings (00700.HK): On June 17, it repurchased 1.118 million shares, costing approximately HK$500 million.Tencent Holdings (00700.HK): On June 17, it spent approximately HK$500 million to repurchase 1.118 million shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

For now, the USD/CAD is struggling due to its inability to stay above the 1.2920 level. Selling pressure and a decrease in the asset are to be expected as investors await the Federal Reserve's interest rate announcement (Fed). The asset has been trading in a range of 1.2855 to 1.2937, but it showed strong recovery on Friday after maintaining its position around the weekly support level.

 

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve (Fed) will declare its monetary policy, hence the US dollar index (DXY) is likely to remain quiet until after the Fed's announcement. Because of the ongoing damage to US households from rising prices, an announcement of a rate hike is expected soon. The scale of the same, though, will remain the primary worry. There is a good possibility that the Fed will implement a second rate hike of 75 basis points (bps).

 

There is no question that the financial community has not found a significant indication that may suggest that the pricing pressures have reached their limit, but slowdown indicators have intensified as Friday's PMI remained negative and big-name Wall Street earnings are not appealing to investors.

 

The loonie remained weak even after the release of Canada's Consumer Price Index (CPI). Total inflation for the year was 8.1%, which was up from 7.7% in the previous report but lower than the 8.4% forecast. There was also a rise of 10 basis points in the core CPI, which now stands at 6.20 percent rather than the previous edition's 6.10 percent.
