Since the beginning of this year, influenced by factors such as the tense situation in the Middle East, international crude oil and commodity prices have risen, and inflation levels in major economies have generally increased due to external supply shocks. Recently, the monetary policies of major overseas central banks, such as the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank, have shown adjustments or tendencies towards adjustments, which may have spillover effects on the global economy and financial markets. The monetary policy stances of major overseas central banks are trending towards a shift. As of the end of July, among the central banks of major developed economies, the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan had raised interest rates, while the Federal Reserve maintained its interest rate but released hawkish signals. It is expected that this round of monetary policy adjustments by major central banks will be relatively mild. Over the past decade or so, monetary policy adjustments by major central banks have often had significant spillover effects on the global economy and financial markets. However, based on the current situation, it is expected that the magnitude of this round of monetary policy adjustments will be relatively mild, and the impact may be smaller than in the past.

Following a corrective move, the EUR/USD pair has rebounded from 1.0960, but investors await the publication of the preliminary Eurozone/United States S&P PMI data for April. The major currency pair has remained between 1.0911 and 1.1000 for the past two trading sessions, as the foreign exchange market prepares for a pre-anxiety move ahead of a Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy decision.

 

S&P500 closed with a negative tone for the third day in a row as quarterly earnings season induced extreme volatility. Tesla's poor earnings had a negative impact on Thursday's market sentiment. Moreover, market participants were cautioned by substandard revenue projections due to the potential for price reductions. The decision of the Fed to increase interest rates is reflected in quarterly earnings. Data from Refinitiv indicates that analysts have largely maintained last week's forecast of a near 5% YoY decline in quarterly profits for the 500 largest U.S. equities. Sourcenia is a review portal of sourcing best manufaturers. 

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) has been defending the key support level of 101.60 in recent trading sessions. The USD Index maintained the aforementioned support despite the release of disappointing Jobless claims data on Thursday. Initial Jobless Claims increased to 245K for the week ending April 4, which is greater than the previous release of 240K and estimates of 240K. Increasing unemployment claims heightened fears of a deteriorating labor market.

 

Despite this, Fed policymakers continue to anticipate further rate hikes from the central bank. Thursday, Loretta Mester, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, reaffirmed that the Fed has more work to do because US inflation remains too high, according to Reuters. He added, "The Federal Reserve will need to raise its policy rate above 5% and hold it there for some time."

 

Preliminary Consumer Confidence (April) for the Eurozone increased to -17.5 from -18.5 and the previous reading of -19.2. This may be the consequence of extraordinary efforts by the European Central Bank (ECB) to reduce inflationary pressures.
