June 29th - Given the Reserve Bank of Australias recent warning that official interest rates could rise further, issues concerning the Middle East conflict and oil prices remain crucial. Matthew Hassan, Head of Macro Forecasting for Australia at Westpac, expects the normalization of oil and gas supplies to be a "slow and tortuous process." He noted that concerns about persistently high domestic inflation will force the RBA to raise interest rates further in August. Hassan added that this decision will be difficult for the committee given the already weak economic growth.Invesco survey: 61% of central banks believe that the level of US debt has a negative impact on the long-term status of the dollar as a reserve asset.June 29 - On June 28 local time, Venezuelan Acting President Rodriguez stated that power services in La Guaira state, the hardest-hit area by the earthquake, have been restored to 75%, water supply to 68%, and road traffic to approximately 90%, with road and vehicle traffic essentially back to normal.Ruwei Technology announced on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that it plans to issue 28.08 million H shares in its Hong Kong listing at a price of HK$21.66 per share, with trading expected to commence on July 8.June 29 - According to Kintetsu Railway Company, a train derailed at Kyoto Station at approximately 5:13 AM local time on June 29.

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.
