On June 29th, at the 2026 Global Digital Economy Conferences Space Computing Forum, the Beijing Space Computing Innovation Center was officially unveiled, positioned as the first space computing innovation center in China with the core mission of connecting the industry chain and coordinating upstream and downstream sectors. According to reports, the Beijing Space Computing Innovation Center adopts a dual-drive model of "company + alliance," integrating the entire stack of "chips—hardware—platforms—intelligence—networks—applications" to systematically build a native space computing industry system. The center will focus on six key research directions across the entire space computing industry chain: design and development of native space computing chips, high-performance ultra-bandwidth space computing payloads, satellite platforms and ground verification infrastructure, large-scale model deployment and software/hardware co-optimization, key technology development for integrated space-ground cloud platforms, and satellite application technology innovation and scenario verification.Tip: Burnham, a potential successor to the British Prime Minister, speaks on the British economy and decentralization.Indias industrial output rose 5.1% year-on-year in May, compared with market expectations of 4.5%.Volkswagens Workers Committee: The 2030 job guarantee agreement reached between Volkswagen and the workers union cannot be cancelled.Verizon (VZ.N) expects the deal with BT Group to boost EBITDA in the second quarter.

GBP/USD seeks to regain 1.2300 as higher UK CPI strengthens the case for a rate hike by the Bank of England and the USD retreats

During the Asian session, the GBP/USD pair attempts to reclaim the resistance level at 1.2300. Following a vertical correction, the Cable has recovered to near 1.2260 as the market anticipates that the absence of hawkish interest rate guidance from Federal Reserve (Fed) chair Jerome Powell while addressing the economy at the monetary policy meeting indicates that the Fed is close to ending its policy-tightening spell.

 

S&P500 futures have generated some gains in the Asian session following a decline on Wednesday as a result of Fed Powell's confirmation that the fight against intractable U.S. inflation will continue. Chairman of the Federal Reserve Jerome Powell has ruled out rate cuts in 2023, citing the difficulty of controlling inflation. In addition, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen's statement that the government "does not plan to insure all uninsured bank deposits" heightened fears of a banking sector collapse.

 

Following a recovery move, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has retreated on expectations that additional credit tightening to protect banking institutions will reduce overall demand, economic activity, and inflation. In the interim, the demand for US government bonds has increased as a result of expectations that US Janet Yellen will end further policy restrictions and reduce support for all bank deposits.

 

On the front of the United Kingdom, the Pound Sterling is likely to maintain its strength as the Bank of England (BoE) is scheduled to raise rates for the eleventh consecutive time. Governor Andrew Bailey of the Bank of England is expected to raise interest rates by 25 basis points (bp) in response to rising food and non-alcoholic beverage prices, as well as rising energy costs, which have contributed to inflation in the United Kingdom.

 

In the midst of global banking turmoil, the Bank of England's (BoE) interest rate decision will be difficult, as policymakers were divided over whether to raise rates further or maintain them at their present level.
