According to TASS, the local mayor said that drones attacked a Moscow oil refinery.On June 18, Li Chao, Deputy Director of the Policy Research Office and Spokesperson of the National Development and Reform Commission, stated at a press conference that achieving carbon peaking and carbon neutrality is not only an inevitable requirement for achieving high-quality development and promoting modernization in harmony with nature, but also a solemn commitment my country, as a responsible major power, has made to the international community. We will work with relevant departments and local governments to simultaneously address both existing and new carbon emissions. Regarding existing carbon emissions, we will focus on nine key industries, including steel, electrolytic aluminum, cement, flat glass, oil refining, ethylene, synthetic ammonia, methanol, and coal-fired power, implementing a three-year action plan for energy conservation and carbon reduction transformation, creating more space for new projects in high-energy-consuming and high-polluting sectors to implement carbon emission replacement at the same or reduced level. Regarding new carbon emissions, we will promote the optimization of energy structure in new projects, actively develop new models such as green direct supply, increase the proportion of non-fossil energy use, and reduce carbon emission levels. Next, we will encourage local governments to expand investment in zero-carbon industrial parks and zero-carbon transportation corridors, accelerate the realization of new clean energy power generation covering the entire societys new electricity demand, and continuously cultivate new drivers for green and low-carbon development.The main Shanghai silver futures contract fell 2.00% during the day, currently trading at 16,478.00 yuan/kg.On June 18th, a recent report by an international organization claimed that the growth of Chinese companies global market share in some key sectors was mainly due to government subsidies. On the same day, Li Chao, Deputy Director of the Policy Research Office and spokesperson for the National Development and Reform Commission, responded at a press conference, stating that simply attributing Chinas industrial competitiveness to so-called "subsidies" is not only overly simplistic but also completely wrong. Chinas industrial competitiveness stems from the intensive development of its massive market, the efficient collaboration of its complete industrial system, the long-term accumulation of education, science and technology, and talent, and the continuous optimization of its business environment.On June 18th, Li Chao, Deputy Director of the Policy Research Office and Spokesperson of the National Development and Reform Commission, responded at a press conference that my country has made positive progress in computing-power synergy and computing-network integration in recent years. However, we also see that the synergy between computing networks and new power grids still faces some obstacles in planning, construction, and pricing mechanisms. The integration of computing networks with next-generation communication networks needs further strengthening, and breakthroughs are needed in computing power monitoring and scheduling technologies and mechanisms. During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, we will pay more attention to supply and demand matching and strengthen the coordinated planning and construction of computing networks with new power grids and next-generation communication networks. In terms of "hard investment," we will explore more effective computing-power synergy models to achieve a balance between electricity and computing power; strengthen computing-network integration and innovation; appropriately promote the expansion of direct connection lines between national hubs; and further reduce network transmission latency. In terms of "soft infrastructure," we will strengthen the monitoring and market-based scheduling of computing resources and accelerate the construction of a nationwide integrated computing network that is interconnected, accessible, green, and secure.

The Dollar Index's Top-to-Bottom Reversal Indicates a Potential Momentum Shift

On Friday, the US Dollar fell versus a basket of foreign currencies after gaining more than 100 points for the first time in over two years. It reached a high of 100.20 during the session, its highest level since May 2020.

 

Despite the fact that it formed a potentially bearish closing price reversal top, it ended the week up 1.3 percent. Throughout the week, the dollar index was mostly supported by a rise in US Treasury yields and a weaker Euro.

 

The June US Dollar Index closed at 99.753 on Friday, down 0.007 or -0.01 percent. The Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund ETF (UUP) closed at $26.68, an increase of $0.01 or 0.02%.

 

On Friday, the US Treasury 10-year yield surpassed 2.7 percent for the first time in three years, aided by the likelihood of more aggressive Federal Reserve tightening. Additionally, this week's release of the Fed's March meeting minutes revealed that "many" members were prepared to raise rates in future months in 50-basis-point increments.

 

In other news, the Euro was under pressure as the election battle between President Emmanuel Macron and far-right contender Marine Le Pen tightened in France, the Euro Zone's second-largest economy. Macron continues to lead polls.

Technical Analysis of the Daily Swing Chart

According to the daily swing chart, the primary trend is upward. However, Friday's closing price reversal top implies that momentum is about to move downward.

 

A move above 99.745 will confirm the price reversal top at the close. This could initiate a 2-3 day adjustment. A break of 100.200 will invalidate the chart pattern and suggest the resumed uptrend. The primary trend will revert to the downside upon a break of 97.730.

 

Minor values range from 97.730 to 100.200. The nearest support level is at its 50% level, or pivot, of 98.965.

 

The critical support level is the long-term Fibonacci retracement level around 98.200.

Scenario of the Bear

Persistent movement below 99.975 indicates the existence of sellers. Taking out 99.745 will confirm the price reversal top at the close. If this generates sufficient downside momentum, expect the selling to extend towards the minor pivot at 98.965.

Scenario of Bullishness

Sustaining a move over 99.975 indicates the presence of buyers. The initial objective on the upside is 100.200.

 

If 100.200 is breached, the closing price reversal top will be invalidated, signaling the resumption of the uptrend. If buying is sufficiently strong, we may see an acceleration to the upside, with the next big objective of 100.560 – 100.930.
