Oman Oil Marketing Company: Signed an agreement to sell 100% of its stake in Sudan Energy Company.January 20th - The Bank of Japan (BOJ) is expected to raise its economic growth forecast on Friday and indicate its readiness to raise interest rates further. Recent yen depreciation and a positive outlook for wage growth have kept policymakers vigilant in their efforts to curb inflationary pressures. However, BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda is unlikely to reveal a specific timeframe for resuming rate hikes. This decision is further complicated by rising bond yields and the anticipated snap election in February. The BOJ, which just raised interest rates to a 30-year high of 0.75% in December, is expected to keep rates unchanged this Friday.The bid-to-cover ratio for the Japanese 20-year government bond auction was 3.19, compared to 4.1 in the previous auction.On January 20th, "Todays Wellness" announced the completion of a seed round of financing totaling tens of millions of yuan.

Technical Analysis of the S&P 500

As the world waits for Jerome Powell's speech, the Core PCE statistics, and of course Friday's jobs report, the S&P 500 has been rather calm during the day on Wednesday. It's not a big surprise to see that individuals were taking a little break because all of this might lead to a lot of volatility. At this point, I believe it might make some sense for us to wander around aimlessly while seeking for a path.


Given enough time, I do believe that the market will have to move, and I have a sneaking suspicion that Jerome Powell may disappoint some.


However, if we were to break through the 4050 level, I believe we could move up to the 4100 level and perhaps the 4200 level in the storied "Santa Claus rally" that people look forward to each year.


However, if we fall below this level of 3900, we can experience a fast decline toward 3800. Remember that there are a lot of moving parts in the world right now, and that many people are naturally worried about the global growth outlook, which is, to put it mildly, not very healthy. Everyone is aware that a recession is imminent, but some financial channels are currently making the absurd claim that the recession "has already been priced in." Although that is gibberish, it is what you are hearing on the radio.
