Wesfarmers Australia: Founders an artificial intelligence partnership with Microsoft (MSFT.O).Shanghai Auntie (02589.HK) once surged by more than 50% during the session, but the gains have now fallen back to 29%.On July 20th, Wang Weiming, Chief Engineer of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), stated that since the beginning of this year, the MIIT has focused on facilitating the industrialization of research results and the incubation chain for technology-based enterprises, taking the cultivation and expansion of the science and technology service industry as a key focus, and has carried out work in three key areas. First, strengthening the incubation rate, establishing a full-chain service capability from R&D to pilot testing and then to incubation; second, building a sound trading market, as many high-quality research results, despite their strong technical foundation, are limited by regional and channel constraints, making it difficult to connect with the national market—even the best products need marketing. Currently, we are accelerating the formulation of policy documents to cultivate a nationally integrated technology market, striving to break down regional barriers and institutional obstacles in the technology transaction process, building a unified national technology transaction service platform, and promoting the free flow of technological elements nationwide; third, facilitating the transformation of supply and demand for research results. "We cannot look for nails with a hammer," we must adhere to the principle of industry posing the questions and science and technology providing the answers, giving full play to the role of technology managers, and facilitating the smooth flow of research output, intermediary matchmaking, and application implementation. Currently, the MIIT is accelerating the formulation of reform measures to strengthen the construction of the technology manager team, and relevant policies and standards will be released soon.On July 20th, the State Council Information Office held a press conference to introduce the development of industry and information technology in the first half of 2026.

Going forward, in accordance with the national software development strategy, we will continue to enhance the supply capacity of key software products and services, accelerate the introduction of the "Artificial Intelligence + Software" action plan, promote the intelligent transformation of software development, the intelligent upgrading of software products and services, and the cultivation of new intelligent agent software business models. We will also continuously improve the capabilities of open-source infrastructure in project incubation, supply chain security governance, exploration of emerging scenarios, and overseas market implementation, and accelerate the growth of the national-level artificial intelligence open-source community into an innovation source for emerging technologies and an important scenario for the implementation of software and hardware products.On July 20, the State Council Information Office held a press conference to introduce the development of industry and information technology in the first half of 2026.

USD/TRY reestablishes its annual high on route to 17.00, notwithstanding Erdogan's expectation of future inflation moderation

In spite of Turkish currency (TRY) traders' inflation worries and President Erdogan's efforts to appease TRY purchasers, the USD/TRY continues to trade near $16.36, the highest level since 2022. The pair's upward momentum is influenced by Friday's high Turkish inflation data for May, as well as the US dollar's comeback over the last week, not to mention expectations of the Fed's faster/more aggressive rate rises.

 

According to Reuters, "Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan stated on Sunday that inflation numbers from the month of May, when annual consumer prices soared to a 24-year high, indicate that inflation is now on the down." It is noteworthy that the May inflation rate for Turkey increased to 73.5 percent in the most recent report.

 

Reuters also reported that the lira fell by 44 percent last year and has been the poorest performer in emerging markets for several consecutive years, mostly owing to economic and monetary policy worries under the administration of President Tayyip Erdogan.

 

In contrast, the odds supporting a 0.50 percent rate hike by the Federal Reserve in September have lately increased to 75 percent from 35 percent a week earlier, which emphasizes this week's US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data and favors US dollar purchasers. In spite of this, the US Dollar Index (DXY) reversed a two-week downward trend at Friday's close, trading down 0.14 percent intraday near 102.000 as of press time.

 

US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) for May came in at 390K, above expectations of 325K but falling short of the upwardly revised prior readings of 428K. In addition, the unemployment rate stayed constant at 3.6% against predictions of a minor reduction to 3.5%. In addition, the US ISM Services PMI dropped to 55.9 in May, compared to the market estimate of 56.4 and the flash reading of 57.1 in April. Following the release of the statistics, Loretta Mester, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, stated that the Fed's only worry is inflation. The officials underlined that the likelihood of a recession has increased.

 

Wall Street benchmarks finished in the negative and US 10-year Treasury rates saw their first weekly increase in three weeks to reflect the risk-averse sentiment of the previous day. However, S&P 500 Futures increased by 0.5 percent to 4,126 and US 10-year Treasury rates fell by 1.3 basis points (bps) to 2.942 percent as per the most recent data available.

 

Amid a pre-Fed blackout for Fed officials and in anticipation of Friday's US CPI, USD/TRY traders should pay attention to risk drivers moving forward.

Technical Evaluation

A successful breach of the prior resistance line from early January, about 16.45 at the time of publication, would lead USD/TRY values toward the $17.00 mark before testing the late 2021 top at $18.36.
