On September 5th, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, commenting on the potential visit to Russia by US Presidential Envoy Joshua Witkov and Trumps son-in-law Jared Kushner, stated that the US government should consider the actual situation on the battlefield in its mediation efforts in Ukraine, and that the situation is developing unfavorably for Kyiv. Ryabkov pointed out that the key issue is whether the US government is prepared to invest the effort to find a genuine solution to the current crisis, including considering the realities of the battlefield, not only the root causes of the conflict frequently cited by Russia, but also the constantly evolving situation that is developing against Ukraine. Ryabkov said the question is whether the Anchorage meeting between the Russian and US leaders in August 2025 and subsequent events demonstrate that the US position on resolving a range of issues can remain within a rational framework, without succumbing to pressure from the situation and opposing mediators. These issues remain unresolved.September 5th - According to reports, after Zhipus first store on Tmall was launched, several major model manufacturers, including Kimi, MiniMax, and Jieyue Xingchen, are also in talks with Tmall to open official flagship stores and sell Token subscription packages.September 5th - In accordance with the "National Natural Disaster Relief Emergency Plan," and in response to the severe impact of recent typhoons and extreme heavy rainfall on Putian and Ningde in Fujian Province, the National Disaster Prevention, Reduction and Relief Commission and the Ministry of Emergency Management raised the national natural disaster relief emergency response level for Fujian to Level III on September 5th.

WTI advances toward $75.00 as China-related demand optimism offsets recession fears

In the early hours of Monday, WTI steadily climbs near the intraday high of $74.70 as bullish emotion competes with economic slowdown worries. Despite this, the weaker US Dollar and a light schedule allow buyers of black gold to maintain control following Friday's mixed performance.

 

In spite of this, the risk profile remains elevated in light of China's reopening of its borders after a three-year closure. On the same line, Guo Shuqing, party secretary of the People's Bank of China, made his remarks (PBOC).

 

Reuters, transmitting China unlock news, claimed that "about 2 billion journeys are anticipated this season, roughly doubling the volume of previous year, and recovering to 70% of 2019 levels," citing a statement from the Chinese government.

 

On the other side, PBOC's Shuqing stated, "The world's second-largest economy is likely to recover rapidly due to the country's optimal Covid-19 response and the continued implementation of its economic policies."

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) fell the most in three weeks the day before, down 0.20% intraday to 103.70 as of press time, as the US employment report failed to excite greenback purchasers and the US activity numbers stoked fears of an economic slowdown. It's worth mentioning that the previous day's disappointing US wage growth, ISM Services PMI, and Factory Orders weighed on Treasury bond yields and the DXY.

 

On a different page, reports regarding a delay in the restoration of the colonial pipeline and the Russia-Ukraine conflict appear to also benefit energy buyers. Traders fear additional rate hikes ahead of the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for December from China and the United States on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, which tests the positive momentum.
