According to Hong Kong Stock Exchange documents, Lijing Innovation Technology Co., Ltd. has submitted a listing application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.Chevron (CVX.N) CEO: The company is in discussions with multiple parties, potentially involving pipeline projects outside of Iraq.July 31 – The US is deepening its support for Japans efforts to stabilize the yen, with the two countries coordinating in the foreign exchange market to a level not seen in decades. On Thursday, Japan appeared to have intervened by buying yen, estimated at around $53 billion; simultaneously, US authorities solicited exchange rate quotes from banks, seen by the market as a precursor to intervention. US Treasury Secretary Bessant stated that the yen was "severely undervalued" and that excessive volatility was unhealthy. Nobuyasu Atago, chief economist at Rakuten Securities Research Institute and a former Bank of Japan official, said, "Bessants influence is very important. The US is now becoming more cooperative with Japans intervention." The timing of Thursdays actions also drew market attention, occurring between the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japans interest rate decisions, leading to speculation that monetary policy might also be part of coordination between Tokyo and Washington. On Friday, Japanese officials remained ambiguous about whether intervention would be implemented, but they clearly emphasized the coordinated support from the US. Jun Mimura, Japans top official in charge of exchange rate affairs at the Ministry of Finance, stated that the US was providing more than just "moral support." Atago said, "I cant help but feel that they are considering not only coordination on exchange rates but also tacit cooperation on monetary policy."Chevron (CVX.N): Has increased the nominal oil production capacity of its third-generation plant in the Tengiz oil field to 320,000 barrels per day.Chevron (CVX.N) CEO: CPC pipeline is currently operational and ships are still loading this week.

USD/JPY falls to 146.00 as the DXY weakens and interest in BOJ policy rises

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.
