Yemeni Presidential Leadership Council Chairman Alimi: The Houthi movement in Yemen will not go unchallenged. There is no contradiction between the governments continued deterrence operations and its pursuit of peace.On August 13th, satellite imagery showed that for the first time in weeks, a very large crude carrier (VLCC) docked at the Al-Juama port near Rastanura, Saudi Arabias main export port in the Persian Gulf, indicating that Saudi Arabia is striving to maintain crude oil exports. However, shipping activity at Saudi ports remains affected by the war with Iran, the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, and the Houthi threat. As the worlds largest oil exporter, Saudi Arabia has recently shifted some of its crude oil shipments to the Red Sea port of Yanbu and exports to the Mediterranean via the Sumed pipeline. Meanwhile, activity at Yanbu port has decreased compared to before, with only three tankers currently observed docked, carrying approximately 3.4 million barrels of crude oil. Analysts believe that Saudi Arabias export routes are shifting from the traditional Bab el-Mandeb Strait to Asian markets to an alternative route via the Red Sea and connecting to the Suez Canal, in order to reduce regional security risks. Due to the disabling of automatic positioning systems on some tankers and the intervals in satellite observations, the actual scale of Saudi crude oil shipments is still difficult to fully confirm.Sources say that Google (GOOG.O) executives held an all-hands meeting last week to discuss restructuring of the artificial intelligence division in response to employee concerns.Sources say that Google (GOOG.O) co-founder Sergey Brin has been urging employees in recent months to focus on bringing the Gemini model back to the forefront of artificial intelligence.According to the Globe and Mail, Canada is weighing a proposal regarding auto tariffs while seeking a tariff exemption from the United States.

During the Asian session, in response to negative signals from the US dollar index, the USD/JPY pair plunged below 146.00. (DXY). Following Wednesday's low of 146.22, the asset's two-day downward trend has extended. The main index is reaching the bottom of Monday's knee-jerk reaction near 145.77 as it continues to decline.

 

The dollar bears are facing a severe sell-off due to the positive market sentiment. The risk-sensitive currencies have benefited from an increase in risk appetite. The US dollar index (DXY) has struck a new monthly low of 109.56 and is anticipated to stay volatile until the release of crucial US economic data.

 

The increased demand for U.S. government bonds has resulted in a decline in yields. This is due to the global markets' increased confidence. The yield on 10-year United States Treasury notes has decreased to 4%.

 

According to estimates, the Gross Domestic Product of the United States expanded by 2.4% in the third quarter. Despite the ultra-hawkish monetary policies of the Federal Reserve (Fed) and the previously disclosed 0.6% fall in growth, forecasts indicate a positive growth rate.

 

In addition, US Durable Goods Orders data will continue to be a key point. Compared to a reduction of 0.2%, it is projected that economic statistics will increase by 0.6%. Notable is the increase in core inflation, which includes oil and food prices. In spite of this, the predicted increase in demand for durable goods in the United States demonstrates healthy household demand.

 

Investors in Tokyo are anticipating the Bank of Japan's (BOJ) interest rate decision on Friday. In view of the shocks to foreign demand, BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda will continue an ultra-loose monetary policy to stimulate the outlook for economic development. In addition, Japanese policymakers are anxious that the inflation rate could go below 2%; hence, an extremely liberal policy is the best alternative.
