Damianos told the Associated Press that the Ukraine crisis and the Middle East conflict have destabilized global energy markets, prompting European countries to diversify their energy sources, and offshore gas fields in the Eastern Mediterranean are increasingly becoming an alternative supply route.On August 9th, a Reuters poll of economists predicted that the U.S. overall CPI annual rate would fall to 3.4% in July from 3.5% in June, while the core CPI annual rate would fall to 2.5% from 2.6% in the previous month. Economists at Citigroup believe that, as expected, if inflation readings soften for the second consecutive month, it would mean that more than one months data points to easing inflationary pressures, essentially ruling out a September rate hike. However, economists also expect core services inflation to rise slightly in July, with prices increasing by 0.3% month-on-month. This figure was flat in May and June. Bank of America analysts stated that the rebound in core services indicators may keep a September rate hike on the table. Analyst Kate Duguid said that if the latter view prevails, and inflation data is lower than expected, then the Feds rate hike may be postponed until December or later.

The EUR/USD pair is expected to decline drastically below the near-term support level of 1.0950 during the Asian session. The major currency pair is attracting bids as the US Dollar Index (DXY) has shown a recovery move and surpassed the 102.00 level of resistance.

 

S&P500 futures have extended their losses during the Asian session in anticipation of the Federal Reserve's (Fed) decision to raise interest rates, which could undermine revenue guidance.

 

According to the Federal Reserve's (Fed) Beige Book minutes, economic activity is stable in the majority of districts. However, loans and advances to businesses and consumers have decreased due to stringent credit conditions imposed by commercial banks in the United States in order to prevent uncertainty in an unstable environment.

 

In the interim, Fed policymakers remain optimistic regarding the economic prognosis due to the labor market's tightness. As reported by Reuters, the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, James Bullard, advocated for the continuation of the central bank's policy tightening in view of the continued strength of labor market data. A Fed official added that the demand for labor has not yet diminished and that a robust labor market results in robust consumer spending.

 

Citi Group forecasts a fourth-quarter recession in the US economy due to the constrained US labor market. Previously, it was anticipated that the United States would enter a recession during the third quarter of 2023.

 

Investors are anticipating the release of Eurozone Consumer Confidence data. Preliminary Consumer Confidence (April) data is anticipated to improve from -19.2 to -18.5. This may be the result of persistently declining inflation in the Eurozone, which reduces the burden on households.
