On September 17th, ING stated that as India moves up the value chain into service sectors that are harder to automate, there are few signs that its outsourcing industry is being replaced by artificial intelligence. Economist Deepali Bhargava wrote that software services exports as a percentage of GDP have risen from 3.3% before the pandemic to approximately 5.2%. During the same period, business services, including finance, accounting, engineering, research, and analytics, more than doubled their share of GDP to 3.3%. This performance challenges concerns that generative AI could weaken one of Indias most important industries by automating traditional outsourcing work. According to ING data, India accounts for more than half of the global outsourcing industry, earning approximately $205 billion annually from software services exports and supporting about 5.8 million workers. Software and business services exports combined account for about 8.5% of GDP and are a significant source of foreign exchange.Nokia: Expanding its partnership with Microsoft to accelerate network automation and build a unified data foundation.On September 17, the Shanghai Stock Exchanges bond project information platform showed that Chongqing Longfor Enterprise Development Co., Ltd. plans to publicly issue corporate bonds to professional investors, with a proposed issuance amount of 2.73 billion yuan.

During the Tokyo session, the USD/CHF pair is oscillating near the round-level barrier of 0.9400 as investors await the release of the United States' five-year consumer inflation forecasts for more direction. The Swiss franc is attempting to surpass the immediate resistance level of 0.9410, but the risk-on mentality stops the US Dollar from advancing further.

 

In the framework of the risk appetite theme, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is hitting resistance close to the significant level of 105.20. In the meantime, 10-year US Treasury yields have attempted to recover after falling to approximately 3.40 percent on Wednesday. The yield on long-term US Treasury bonds has rebounded to approximately 3.45%.

 

The growing unpredictability around the Federal Reserve's (Fed) policy outlook has caused market participants to feel anxious. As a result of favorable U.S. economic data, investors anticipate future rate hikes from the Federal Reserve to combat rising inflationary pressures. Moreover, it will compel a recession, as businesses will lower or maintain their current level of economic activity in response to rising interest liabilities.

 

At a Goldman Sachs financial conference, Bank of America (BoA) CEO Brian Moynihan informed investors that the United States economy will see "moderate contraction" in the first quarter of 2023.

 

Friday's release of US Consumer Inflation Expectations for the Next Five Years will continue to be closely monitored by investors.

 

Regarding the Swiss franc, investors are shifting their focus to the Swiss National Bank's (SNB) interest rate announcement scheduled for next week. As inflationary pressures are moderately over the target rate, it is predicted that SNB Chairman Thomas J. Jordan would continue to loosen monetary policy. This week, the Swiss Unemployment Rate fell to 2.1%, which is lower than the previous data of 2.0% and the consensus estimate of 2.2%.
