On June 11, following Trumps remarks about possible further attacks on Iran, Ibrahim Aziz, head of the Iranian Parliaments National Security Committee, posted a strong statement on social media. He stated, "We are not afraid to fight the losers. American casualties are already far higher than Trump has admitted, and will continue to rise. This time, the war will not be confined to this region. We will wait and see!"On June 11, the U.S. Department of Energy announced on Wednesday that the United States is seeking to lend up to 40 million barrels of its Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to energy companies to help lower fuel prices. This plan is part of a previous agreement to release 172 million barrels of SPR. To date, the U.S. has lent approximately 133 million barrels of crude oil under that agreement. In March of this year, following the U.S. and Israels war against Iran on February 28, the U.S. reached an agreement with approximately 30 member countries of the International Energy Agency to release approximately 400 million barrels of strategic reserves to help stabilize the international oil market. Currently, U.S. SPR inventories stand at 349.2 million barrels, the lowest level since August 2023.

Speaking to the media during a UN Security Council meeting in New York, Petro emphasized, "You are not dealing with a suspended president." He stressed that the Inquiry and Indictment Committee has no power to suspend the president of the republic, and that presidential suspension should be decided by the Senate. Petro believes the current action violates Colombian law and could trigger legal proceedings in the Supreme Court. Petro also accused the congressman who initiated the decision, claiming he had made numerous demands on the government and implying the actions constituted "extortion."Sources say the White House meeting with defense companies was similar to the one in March, with participating companies including Lockheed Martin (LMT.N), Raytheon Technologies (RTX.N), Boeing (BA.N), and L3Harris.

Before BoJ Ueda's Speech, GBP / JPY Struggles To Extend Above 163.00

It is difficult for the GBP / JPY pair to prolong its gains above 163.00 during the Asian session. Given that Bank of Japan (BoJ) Governor Nominee Kazuo Ueda is following in the footsteps of former BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda, it is expected that the cross will resume its upward trend as investors cease supporting the Japanese Yen.

 

In his speech on Friday, BoJ Ueda stated that the current monetary policy is appropriate to maintain inflationary pressures. Despite reaching a multi-decade high, Japan's Consumer Price Index (CPI) is non-sticky due to the international forces propelling inflation. The accelerating price index in Japan is due to higher petroleum and food import prices, not domestic demand and wages, which should be the primary generators of inflation. The objective of the Japanese government was to develop a strategy for exiting the decade-long monetary policy with a new BoJ chairman. BoJ Ueda's dovish remarks, however, reduced long-term yen support wagers.

 

The term "ecosystem" refers to a group of people who work in the construction industry.

 

In the meantime, the British pound has moved sideways ahead of the anticipated announcement of a Brexit agreement by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and President Ursula von der Leyen of the European Commission. "The Prime Minister wants to ensure that any deal fixes the practical problems on the ground, ensures trade flows freely throughout the entire UK, protects Northern Ireland's place in our Union, and returns sovereignty to the people of Northern Ireland," Sunak's office said in a statement cited by Reuters.
