Russian President Vladimir Putin: The morale of the Ukrainian army is currently very low, and the desertion rate is very high.Russian President Vladimir Putin: The information about mobilization was an information attack launched by the enemy before the Russian Duma elections, with the aim of influencing the election results.Data from the Bank of Japan (BOJ) suggests the Japanese government did not appear to have conducted a large-scale intervention in the foreign exchange market on Wednesday, indicating that the sharp exchange rate fluctuations were likely due to trader jitters stemming from readjustments in interest rate hike expectations. The BOJs current account forecast released on Thursday differed too little from currency broker estimates to suggest that Japan had intervened with yen buying on the scale of a month ago. The BOJ projected a 410 billion yen decrease in its current account due to fiscal factors, compared to an average estimate of approximately 700 billion yen from the Central Accounting Research Institute, Ueda-Yagi Accounting Research Institute, and Tokyo Accounting Research Institute. This difference is far less than 729 billion yen, representing Japans smallest intervention since 2022. The exchange rate volatility partly stemmed from traders adjusting their positions based on expectations of the BOJs interest rate hike direction. A series of comments from Japanese and US policymakers fueled speculation about a potential acceleration in tightening or even a significant rate hike, but sources familiar with the matter indicated the BOJ favors a 0.25 percentage point rate hike at its September meeting, dampening previous expectations of a larger increase.The Kremlin responded to the US Treasury Secretarys remarks by saying, "We will continue to support Iran."Andy Challenger, Chief Revenue Officer and Labor Market Specialist at Challenger, a US employment data company: We hope that while layoffs decrease, hiring activity will also increase.

S&P 500 Technical Analysis

On Friday, the S&P 500 sought to climb in the futures markets but gave back gains, indicating weakness. As a result, the market currently threatens the 4500 level in the futures market, which has previously been a key sector. As a result, it'll be fascinating to watch whether we can pull back much farther, possibly to the 50 Day EMA.


The candlestick's magnitude isn't particularly impressive, but it appears like the 4500 goal I suggested before will be tested. If we break it down further, the 50 Day EMA, which is at the 4400 level, makes a lot of sense, followed by the 200 Day EMA, which is also at that level. 


The market is still highly loud, and I believe it will continue to be so in the future. After all, there are a slew of confusing signals at the present, not least in the bond market, where many traders anticipate we'll see as many as eight interest rate hikes, while others say it's impossible.


Find a reason to go higher, but this is due to the fact that it is unconcerned about the underlying economy. Keep in mind that stock markets are about liquidity more than anything economic. If it were the case, the latest straight-up-in-the-air photo would not have taken place. 


That said, savage rallies are common in bear markets, so, while hope springs eternal, I'll be betting on the downside through options rather than directly in the market.
