On May 16th, according to an official notice, the Indian government has implemented new restrictions on silver imports, changing several categories of silver products from a free import policy to a restricted import policy. Under the revised regulations, the import of silver bars, unwrought silver, and semi-finished silver (including silver powder) now requires government approval. Certain categories of silver imports are also subject to regulations from the Reserve Bank of India. These changes are introduced through revisions to the import policy catalog under the Harmonized System of Trade (HS) of India. This move comes as the Indian government intensifies its efforts to tighten regulations on precious metal imports and control rising import bills. Previously, the Indian central government had increased import duties on gold and silver from 6% to 15%. Simultaneously, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) has tightened regulations regarding the duty-free import of gold by jewelry and gemstone exporters under the "pre-authorization" scheme.On May 16, according to a report by the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRNA), a fire broke out at an oil factory in the northwestern Iranian city of Maragay at around 10:00 AM.

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.
