On September 7, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova issued a statement saying that the US deployment of a medium-range missile launch system in Norway is yet another serious destabilizing move by NATO countries. Zakharova said the MK-41 launch system deployed in Norway can launch multi-purpose missiles to strike land and sea targets. The system can launch Tomahawk long-range cruise missiles, and its deployment in the Nordic countries can cover large swathes of Russian territory, including Moscow. Zakharova stated that the US deployment of land-based medium-range missiles in Europe, which threaten Russia, "undermines the foundation for constructive dialogue between Russia and the US on strategic issues."On September 7, local time, Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia does not rule out resuming trilateral talks with the United States and Ukraine, but the location and timing are still uncertain. Peskov also stated that it is possible that Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump may hold a telephone conversation after the US presidential envoys visit to Moscow and Kyiv. Furthermore, Peskov emphasized that the Kremlin currently has no information regarding the outcome of negotiations between US presidential envoy Sergei Witkov, US President Trumps son-in-law Jared Kushner, and the Ukrainian leadership. When asked about the extent of the differences between the new US proposal and the consensus reached by Russian and US leaders Anchorage, Peskov did not answer.September 7th - Research from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York indicates that the decline in the dollars share of foreign exchange reserves does not reflect a widespread reallocation of dollar holdings, but rather the actions of a few reserve managers. Last year, the dollar accounted for 56% of official currency reserves, down from 64% a decade ago. While this change is often cited as evidence of widespread de-dollarization, Fed researchers say their research shows that the number of countries increasing and decreasing their dollar holdings has been roughly equal over two distinct periods since 2015. Linda S. Goldberg and Sneha Parthasarathy wrote in a blog post last week, "There is little evidence of a widespread trend of official diversification and dollar reduction."Oman says it has evacuated 16 crew members from the Saudi SIDR vessel, which was attacked by Iran.International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Grossi: Regardless of the resolution, my work in Iran will continue.

Despite the fact that Eurozone interest rates are anticipated to peak sooner, the EUR/GBP looks to have breached over 0.8630

The EUR/GBP pair has had a stronger recovery from 0.8580 during the Asian session, approaching the pivotal 0.8630 level. Despite the European Central Bank (ECB) being close to reaching an interest rate high, there has been strong demand for Euro bulls. Thus, the monetary policy meeting scheduled for next week will be of utmost significance.

 

The cross is attempting to break strongly above the significant barrier of 0.8630 for the fourth time this week. The hawkish remarks made by ECB policymakers are holding back the euro bulls.

 

"There will be another rate hike," said Constantinos Herodotou, governor of the Central Bank of Cyprus, "but we are very near to neutral." The European Central Bank's chief economist, Phillip Lane, is unsure as to whether the inflation peak has already occurred or will take place in 2019. He stated that although "much has already been done," he does not rule out more rate increases.

 

Investors are currently looking forward to Christine Lagarde's speech, which will be revealed on Thursday. The ECB President is likely to lower her inflation projection in her future statement in light of the poor retail sales numbers.

 

In contrast to expectations for a 1.7% loss, this week's Eurozone retail sales numbers showed a 1.8% decline. Aside from that, annual economic data contraction came in at 2.7% as opposed to the 2.6% consensus expectation. A decline in household demand demonstrates the effectiveness of the European Central Bank's (ECB) policy tightening initiatives. To reach their sales targets, firms could feel pressured to lower the prices of their products and services.

 

The United Kingdom's deteriorating food crisis, brought on by growing costs and a labor shortfall, has had an impact on the Pound Sterling. According to Minette Batters, president of the National Farmers Union, "the government and the entire supply chain must act swiftly." The Financial Times stated that "tomorrow might be too late." The economy already faces rising food inflation, and the issue with the supply of food will make matters worse.
