On June 11th, it was reported that XPeng is expanding into a new business area, officially entering the yacht industry and launching a yacht project codenamed "Flying Fish." XPeng also established a dedicated R&D team earlier this year, which now numbers nearly 100 people. The project is led by Qian Zhanwei, head of XPengs vehicle architecture department. However, the project is still in the R&D stage, and specific product details, technical parameters, and launch date have not been disclosed. XPeng stated that it was "unaware of this matter." While XPeng did not comment on the yacht development news, it is not uncommon for automakers to venture into the yacht industry. Previously, brands such as Mercedes-AMG, Lamborghini, Porsche, and Lexus have already entered this field, albeit in various ways.The European Central Bank will announce its interest rate decision in ten minutes.June 11th - Forex strategist Karamanis stated that euro options indicate traders expect another calm day for the ECB decision, as the rate hike has already been fully priced in by the market, and this meeting is largely seen as procedural. The euro could see volatility if officials hint at a possible consecutive rate hike in July, rather than a pause until September (a probability currently priced in by the swap market at less than 50%). However, for the forex market to experience significant volatility, the markets pricing in three rate hikes before the end of the year would need to be substantially challenged. Lagarde is unlikely to do much in this regard – she is expected to offer little beyond reiterating that future decisions will rely on data.According to the Wall Street Journal: Nvidia (NVDA.O) is collaborating with Abridge to develop artificial intelligence medical models.On June 11th, Nanjing held a football work conference.

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.
