September 5th - US President Trump posted that it has been an incredible summer for the American tourism industry. Americans have traveled nearly 300 billion miles, our national parks welcomed 78 million visitors, and millions more traveled by air. The FIFA World Cup alone brought in over $18 billion for our economy and supported over 160,000 jobs! Tourism means jobs, investment, and billions of dollars flowing into American businesses and communities. We are cutting red tape and modernizing air travel to make it easier to travel and do business in the United States. America is opening its doors to the world—and the best is yet to come.On September 5th, U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden rejected a temporary restraining order application filed by Stars and Stripes publisher Max Laidler, editor-in-chief Eric Slavin, and Middle East journalist Lara Colter on September 4th, allowing the Department of Defense to proceed with the dismissal of the three. The judge ruled that the three had failed to demonstrate that their First Amendment rights were likely violated. The three had previously sued the Department of Defense, claiming they were being retaliated against for publicly supporting Stars and Stripes editorial independence and related reporting. In his ruling, Judge McFadden stated that while Slavin and Colter had been granted permission to give interviews, existing materials showed they were making these statements in the course of official duties, not as private citizens. Regarding Laidler, the judge stated that his failure to follow orders was not protected by the First Amendment.On September 5th, US President Trump posted: "Great news! Our booming economy added 162,000 jobs in August to honor the great American workers we celebrate this year (and every year!) for Labor Day."

The impact of Trumps economic boom is evident across numerous industries. This administrations fair trade policies, implemented through a superb tool called "tariffs," have reshaped the global economic landscape, bringing manufacturing jobs back to the US on an unprecedented scale.

Soon, these factories will be packed with American workers.September 5th - The 5th China-Canada (China-Canada) Defence Working Meeting was held in Canada on September 4th.

Due to hawkish Fed forecasts, the EUR/USD recovers to near 1.0970 but remains in the doldrums

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.
