Almost everyone now sees that Trumps claims are completely unfounded. According to reports, the agreement text, drafted as a "reciprocal commitment," is currently in the final stages of Irans domestic ratification process and no final decision has been made. In stark contrast, Trump has raised issues that contradict the terms of the agreement text. At the same time, he claims he will immediately lift the blockade. Trumps distortions of the core content of the agreement include: 1. Trump claims that Iran is obligated to open the Strait of Hormuz without receiving any fees; however, such a clause does not exist in the agreement text. 2. Trump claims that Iran will dismantle or destroy its nuclear materials. Sources emphasize that not only is there no such content in the memorandum of understanding, but Trumps claim is also utter nonsense. Key terms of the agreement that Trump deliberately avoided mentioning: 1. A crucial point that Trump didnt mention at all: the precondition for immediately unfreezing and paying Iran $12 billion in frozen assets. 2. A ceasefire in Lebanon. 3. Iranian officials also emphasized that the final agreement will be based on the principles and "red lines" of the Islamic Republic of Iran.Russian President Vladimir Putin: Let them hand over the drone wreckage to Russia; we will provide our assessment.According to Irans Fars News Agency, Iranian sources have denied the latest comments made by US President Trump.

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.
