August 22 – According to the Iranian news agency IRNA, Iranian Armed Forces spokesman Akraminia stated: “The geopolitical awakening of the Iranian people is one of the achievements of the recent war, which has made the world more clearly see the sinister nature of the enemy, and the signs of American decline have become more apparent. The United States no longer has international prestige. Iran’s military strategy has shifted from defensive to offensive; any act of aggression will be met with an immediate response, and the scale of the response may well exceed the scale of the aggression itself. We have also seen Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan establish a defensive security mechanism independent of the United States. Regardless of how effective this security mechanism may be in the future, as it stands, it demonstrates the decline of the United States’ position in the region and is the first defensive security mechanism in the region without US participation.”August 22 – The 35th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ICAI) and the European Conference on Artificial Intelligence (ECAI) concluded on August 21 in Bremen, Germany.

In the early European session, the Gold price (XAU / USD) is exhibiting erratic movements near $1,994.00. The precious metal is in a state of indecision as investors await the release of preliminary S&P PMI data for the United States on Friday.

 

After violent swings influenced by the Federal Reserve's (Fed) Beige Book, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is showing signs of volatility contraction below 102.00. The declining trend of advances to consumer and business loans by U.S. commercial banks has intensified concerns of a recession in the U.S. economy, despite the fact that economic activity in 12 Fed districts remained virtually unchanged. To prevent a decline in asset quality, banks have tightened credit disbursement requirements.

 

In the meantime, S&P futures have recorded sizeable losses during the Asian session, as investors are wary of firms' comments regarding revenue guidance. The market anticipates that constrained credit conditions will impact the working capital management of cash-reliant companies, thereby affecting their output.

 

The market expects preliminary US S&P PMI data to reveal a Manufacturing PMI reading of 49.0, a decrease from the previous reading of 49.9. The Services PMI is anticipated to decrease to 51.5 from 52.6 previously reported.
