Date: 15th August 2024. Earnings and Inflation Boost the Dow Jones, Eyes Turn to Walmart’s Report! US inflation falls from 3.00% to 2.90% making a September rate cut certain. According to the CME Group, there is a 64% chance of the September rate cut being 25-basis points. Japanese GDP data confirms the economy grew 0.8% in the past quarter. The UK economy sees no growth in the latest month. Wednesday’s best performing index was the Dow Jones after Cisco Systems beat earnings and revenue expectations. USA30 – The Dow Jones Is Wednesday’s Best Performing Index! The Dow Jones is rarely the best performing index due to its exposure to more stable and less volatile stocks. The upward momentum is largely due to the earnings data from Cisco Systems and Caterpillar. Investors will now turn their attention to the last major quarterly earnings report for the week, Walmart. 80% of the Dow Jones’ stocks rose in value on Wednesday due to the significant rise in investor sentiment. Confidence in the stock market improved after the US inflation rate fell from 3% to 2.9% and the core inflation rate remained unchanged at 3.2%. The lower than previously expected inflation saw the market’s confidence rise and particularly support the Dow Jones. The Dow Jones also saw momentum rise after Cisco made public their latest quarterly earnings report. Earnings per Share was 2.49% higher than Wall Street’s predictions and the revenue rose by almost $1 billion from the 1st to 2nd quarter. As a result, the stock rose by 5.75% after market close. The best performing stocks on Wednesday were American Express and Goldman Sachs. Investors will now turn their attention to Walmart which will release their earnings report before the market opens. For Walmart, analysts predict the earnings per share to rise from $0.60 to $0.65 and for revenue to rise from $159 billion to $167 billion. The company has beat earnings expectations over the past 12 months due to investors looking to shop on a budget due to recent high inflation. On Wednesday, Walmart stocks rose 0.78% and a further 0.52% after market close. The rise and bullish momentum indicate investors believe the company will continue to perform well on their earnings reports. Walmart holds a weight of 1.12% and Cisco Systems 0.74%. Dow Jones – Interest Rates and Upcoming Economic News. After the lower inflation data for consumers and producers there is a 64% chance of the September rate cut being 25-basis points. According to many analysts the Federal Reserve will cut 0.75% by the end of 2024. However, some experts believe the Fed will cut a full 1.00%. This is also something which can be seen on the CME Group which indicates a 44% chance of a 1.00% cut by December. Investors will now turn their attention to the US Retail Sales, Core Retail Sales and Weekly Unemployment Claims. Ideally shareholders would like to see the data slightly stronger than expectations, but not strong enough to suggest no rate cuts are needed. The Empire State Manufacturing Index and Philly Fed Index will also trigger volatility but to a lesser extent. The only concern for shareholders is a potential rise in tensions within the Middle East! Currently the VIX trades with no major changes. As do Bond Yields, but a decline throughout the day would benefit the stock market. Dow Jones – Technical Analysis! Technical analysis indicates buyers are holding momentum. On the 2-Hour chart, price trades above the 75-Period EMA and the 100-Period EMA. The price also continues to trade above 70 on the RSI but is not indicating an overbought price. On the 5-Minute chart, the price continues to form bullish crossovers and trade above the VWAP. The price movement throughout as we approach the US session will depend largely on the global stock market performance and Walmart’s earnings report. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 13th August 2024. The Pound Rises, But Cracks Emerge in the UK Employment Sector. The Pound increases in value, but UK employment data signals economic stagnation and weakening employment. The UK number of individuals claiming unemployment benefits rises 135,000, the highest in over 4 years. The Dow Jones trades sideways but this may change as Home Depot is due to release their earnings report. Investors turn their attention to the US Producer Inflation Rate which analysts expect to fall to 2.3%. GBPUSD – UK Employment Data Paints a Dim Picture! The Great British Pound is increasing in value against the US Dollar and also against all other currencies. However, the economic data coming out of the UK this morning paints a very different picture. Therefore, many investors question whether the Pound will indeed maintain bullish momentum. The number of individuals claiming unemployment benefits from 135,000 within a single month, the highest since the first COVID lockdown. The six-month average for the UK Claimant Count Change (number of unemployment benefits) is 22,233. Therefore, 135,000 added within a single month is a concern for investors and the Bank of England. In addition to this, the UK Average Earnings Index fell from 5.7% to 4.5% which is lower than expectations. The fall is likely to apply less upward pressure on inflation and can eventually prompt the Bank of England to consider an earlier rate cut. However, the positive from the morning’s UK data is the unemployment rate. The UK unemployment rate fell from 4.4% to 4.2%, a 4-month low. It is vital for investors to continue monitoring the GBP index, which is currently trading 0.23% higher. However, if data continues to disappoint throughout the week, the traditional react would lead to a weakening of the British Pound. If individual wish to speculate a depreciating GBP, investors also have the option to trade the GBPNZD which has been the best performing currency of the past week. Regarding the GBPUSD exchange rate, the price will also largely be dependant on this afternoon’s Producer Price Index. As the US session edges closer, investors will turn their attention to the PPI, which analysts expect to fall to 2.3%. If the Producer Price Index reads higher than expectations, the US Dollar may increase in value while the market’s risk appetite declines. As a result, the Pound can quickly give up gains from the past 24 hours. Currently, the price of the GBPUSD is trading above most moving averages, oscillators and the VWAP indicating potential upward price movement. However, as mentioned above, the price movement will be dependant on the upcoming economic releases. If the price trades above 1.28037 and 1.28092, the exchange rate may rise in value in the short term. However, ideally the US PPI will need to read lower than expectations as the breakout takes place. USA30 – Investors On Edge Ahead Of Inflation And Home Depot’s Earnings Report! The Dow Jones continues to honour the price pattern of the previous 2 trading sessions as per yesterday’s analysis. However, this is now likely to change as Home Depot will release their earnings report in the upcoming hours. Additionally, this afternoon’s Producer Price Index will be a key price driver. Shareholders will be hoping for a lower-than-expected PPI. Home Depot has beat their earnings expectations over the past 4 quarters, but investors will also be looking for guidance for the upcoming quarters. Investors expect Earnings Per Share to rise from $3.63 to $4.55 and for revenue to rise by $6 billion. If the company beat expectations the stock potentially can rise and support the Dow Jones. Over the past 12 months the stock has risen 4.80% and has a dividend yield of 2.60%. During this morning’s Asian session, the VIX is trading more than 2.00% lower which is positive for the Dow Jones. Investors will continue to monitor the VIX and US Bond Yields. If both decline, the price movement is likely to improve. Throughout the Asian session the Dow Jones has risen 0.32% and is attempting to move back to the resistance level. However, positive data is required to breakout of this level and form a possible bullish trend. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 12th August 2024. How Will the Pound Perform Ahead Of A Vital Week For The UK! Economists expect the US inflation rate to remain at 3.0% or to drop to 2.9%. Also, economists expect Inflation excluding Food and Energy to drop to 3.2%. The Federal Reserve’s Mrs Bowman advises cuts are needed only if inflation continues to decline. According to the CME Group, investors are split over whether the Fed will cut 0.50% or 0.25%. The US inflation data tomorrow and on Wednesday will determine how the Fed will cut. The Dow Jones await key earnings reports from Home Depot (13th August), Cisco Systems (14th August) and Walmart (15th). GBPJPY – Key UK Data To Determine The Pound’s Value! The price of the GBPJPY is trading at the recent average price, but the Pound is gaining momentum ahead of vital economic data. The performance of the Great British Pound will depend largely on the upcoming 5 key economic releases. The Japanese Yen on the other hand has slightly lost momentum after the dovishness of the Bank of Japan in their latest press conference. The performance of the Yen will largely depend on the dovishness of the other central banks such as the Fed, Bank of England and European Central Bank. GBPJPY 2-Hour Chart Showing The Price Rise Above Moving Averages For The First Time Since July 11th. Throughout the week the UK will release the following key economic releases: Claimant Count Change Average Earnings Index UK Inflation Gross Domestic Product Retail Sales The price of the GBP will depend on how the UK economy and inflation has performed over the past month compared to expectations. According to economists, if the UK inflation rate and GDP read higher than expectations, the Pound is likely to strengthen. However, investors will also be looking closely at the UK employment data as the UK Unemployment Rate has risen to 4.4%. If the unemployment rate rises, the UK’s rate will be at its highest in 3-years and can prompt a more dovish central bank. Currently, the Pound is the best performing currency of the day, except for the AUD and NZD. The AUD and NZD normally tend to lose momentum as the European session opens. However, the New Zealand Dollar is also gaining momentum ahead of the RBNZ’s Rate Decision. The GBP is trading 0.20% higher so far in the Asian session. Technical analyst and economists consider if investors are increasing exposure predicting positive economic data throughout the upcoming week. In terms of technical analysis, the price of the exchange is trading above the 75-Period EMA and 100-Period SMA for the first time since July 11th. The RSI is also trading at 59.00 which indicates buyers may be gaining control. The Japanese Yen index is trading 0.42% lower so far, therefore signalling no conflict, but investors will keep monitoring this throughout the week. Particularly once the US start releasing their inflation data. Prices above 188.405 will see stronger buy signals whereas below 186.477 will see traders look for sell signals. USA30 (Dow Jones) – Investors Eye US Inflation and This Week’s Quarterly Earnings Reports! On Friday, the Dow Jones traded in a sideways price range after breaking the resistance level. According to economists, the assets sideways movement is due to shareholders wanting to see the upcoming earnings reports. Economists advise the Dow Jones is appropriately priced and investors will look at economic data and earnings first before determining the intrinsic value of the asset. As a result, US data and the upcoming quarterly earnings report will be key. The Dow Jones On A 2-Hour Chart. Previously, bad news was good news for the stock market. However, most shareholders will be hoping for slightly positive economic data to improve the risk appetite of the market. It will be key for the US inflation rate to fall if the stock market is to hope for a full correction back up to 14,000. Many economists advise a full correction is unlikely if inflation does not fall. The performance of the Dow Jones will depend on the quarterly earnings reports and US inflation. The Federal Reserve’s Mrs Bowman advises cuts are needed only if inflation continues to decline. Markets viewed the comments are cautious and less dovish compared to market expectations. However, if inflation does decline, market will start to price a 50-basis point cut for September. The Dow Jones awaits key earnings reports from Home Depot (13th August), Cisco Systems (14th August) and Walmart (15th). Over the past 6 months Home Depot stocks have fallen 4.60% and Cisco Systems 9.00%. Walmart stocks have risen almost 20% in 6 months. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 9th August 2024. The Dow Jones Rebounds After Reassuring Guidance From Key US Companies! Stocks rebound after leading economists come out in force to confirm no recession is approaching. The NASDAQ rises 2.87% and the Dow Jones 1.77%. The SNP500 witnesses its best day since November 2022. A sense of relief after the Weekly Unemployment Claims was 8,000 lower than expectations. The British Pound gets ready for a week full of vital economic data. The GBP remains unchanged prior to the London open. USA30 – Why The Dow Jones Rose 1.77% On Thursday? The Dow Jones on Thursday saw a strong rebound which was a result of three elements. The first is that economists came out in force to confirm there is no sign in economic data indicating a recession. Speeches from the CEOs of Commerzbank, Goldman Sachs, and Disney said there was no data pointing to a crash. However, they did advise the market is likely to witness high volatility and strong correction in the upcoming months. Looking at economic data, the US economy remains strongly in the growth zone, but with a more balanced employment sector and weakening consumer demand. The second element supporting the stock market is the Weekly Unemployment Claims. Weekly Unemployment Claims was 8,000 lower than expectations (241,000). Lastly, technical analysts also advised the market was comfortable to buy the dip after the stock market was unable to maintain the downward momentum from Monday. When monitoring the individual components of the Dow Jones, all stocks ended the day higher. The strongest gains were from Intel which rose 7.90% and Amgen which won back previous losses. Caterpillar also continues to perform well after beating its earnings expectations by 8.00% also adding to the upward momentum. In addition to this, the VIX index trades 0.20% lower this morning, and if the decline increases, the VIX would support a continued correction in the stock market. Dow Jones (USA30) – Technical Analysis and US Inflation A key factor in the pricing of the stock market will be next week’s Consumer Price Index. The inflation rate will help determine how much the Federal Reserve will be willing to cut in September. JP Morgan in its latest report advised there is a 35% chance of a recession, and the Fed may cut interest rates by 1.00% in 2024. However, many economists believe the Fed will only cut by 50 basis points in September if inflation falls next week. Lower inflation can support the stock market and further fuel a correction. The Dow Jones has been trading sideways throughout the Asian session with no clear lasting crossovers. In addition to this, the MACD remains numb and the price trades at the VWAP. Therefore, more volatility is needed to obtain a clear signal. If the price breaks above the 39,551.75 level, a buy signal may arise from the breakout via crossovers and Fibonacci. GBPEUR – Investors Brace For Crucial UK Data In The Upcoming Week! The British Pound has significantly fallen in value over the past 3 weeks but has been attempting a correction over the past 3 days. The price is at the average price, but the economic data next week will be crucial for the Pound. A full correction back to 0.83820 or further bullish price movement will depend on the data. EURGBP – Impact Of High Interest Rates! In the following week, the UK will release their Claimant Count Change, Average Earnings Index, UK inflation, Retail Sales and the UK’s Gross Domestic Product. These 5 critical economic releases will indicate if the UK economy is solid and expanding or remains under pressure. It is noteworthy that the UK Finance association has published data indicating the significant impact of high interest rates. Experts highlight that the number of creditors’ claims for repossessing mortgaged properties has reached its highest level in five years. During this period, 96,000 homeowners were in arrears of at least 2.5%. Additionally, claims for mortgage non-payment rose by 34.0% year-on-year while repossessions of mortgaged properties increased by 31.0% compared to the same period last year. Therefore, it will be vital for the Pound to obtain supporting economic data in the upcoming week. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 8th August 2024. The Dow Jones Drops 2% As JP Morgan Signal Possible Recession. JP Morgan advises markets that the economy is at a higher risk of a recession in 2024. Representatives of the Federal Reserve advise they will not call for an urgent meeting to cut interest rates. Disney beat expectations but theme park visitors significantly fell. Economists advise this shows the drop in consumer demand and the risks of inflation over the past 3 years. The Japanese Yen climbs after downward pressure in the first half of the week. USA30 – The Dow Jones Reaches a Significant Support Level! The Dow Jones price quickly collapsed after the opening of the US trading session and continues to remain low on Thursday. The decline was largely triggered by the poor performance of Amgen (-5.00%) and Walt Disney (+4.46%). Both stocks came under pressure by the quarterly earnings report which confirmed some risks. On Wednesday, only 35% of the Dow Jones rose in value, while 65% fell. Dow Jones 2-Hour Chart Illustrating recent Support & Resistance Levels Disney’s Earnings Per Share for the latest quarter were significantly higher than previous expectations. Earnings were 16% higher while revenue came in as expected. However, the poor performance of the company’s theme parks dampened sentiment and the overall stock market. According to economists, the drop in revenue from theme parks is a result of inflation and lower consumer demand which not only influences Disney’s stocks but the overall market. In addition to this, throughout the month of August, poor data can be followed by an overreaction as the market’s risk appetite remains low and on the lookout. The next significant quarterly earnings report for the Dow Jones is Home Depot on Tuesday before the market opens. Another factor which is adding to pressure is the latest comments from JP Morgan, one of the largest US banks of all time. According to JP Morgan, the US economy is now at a higher risk of a recession in 2024, and a recent selloff has wiped out three-quarters of the global carry trade, erasing this year’s gains. USA30 – Technical Analysis! In terms of technical analysis, the price of the Dow Jones continues to find support at the $38,577.09 level. However, the price is testing the level for the fourth time this week. The question is, will the index break below the price or find short-term support. Currently the price trades below the 75-Period EMA, 100-Period SMA and below the 50.00 level on the RSI. However, a positive factor is the VIX index trades lower as do bond yields.

Date: 31st July 2024. How Are Earnings Shaping the NASDAQ? Microsoft stocks fell 2.70% as Cloud revenue read lower than previous expectations. Overall earnings and revenue beat expectations. AMD and Starbucks stocks rise after releasing their quarterly earnings reports. Earnings support the NASDAQ after the index falls to a new monthly low. Meta, Qualcomm and Lam Research are due to release their earnings reports after today’s market close. USA100 – How Will Investors View The NASDAQ After The Recent Earnings Data! Yesterday, the NASDAQ fell 1.81%, hitting a recent low and pushing the index 10.50% below its recent highs. However, the decline came to a halt as the earnings from influential companies prompted investors to purchase at the lower price. Microsoft, AMD and Starbucks made public their latest earnings report after the market close. Microsoft stocks, the second most influential stock holding a weight of 8.49%, fell 2.70% after releasing their earnings. The price fell due to the Cloud revenue not reaching previous expectations. However, investors should note that earnings from the Cloud sector have still significantly risen from the previous quarters and the company overall beat earnings and revenue expectations. Microsoft earnings beat expectations by 0.25% and Revenue by 0.45%. On the other hand, AMD and Starbucks stocks rose in value after releasing their reports. AMD stocks rose 7.64% and Starbucks 3.63%. This evening, after the US market closes, Meta, Qualcomm and Lam Research will release their quarterly figures. The 3 stocks make up a weight of 6.56%. This is a moderate weight and not as influential as the above-mentioned stocks. However, the release can still significantly change the sentiment towards the stock market. The stock market fell after the US’s JOLTS Job Openings and CB Consumer Confidence beat expectations set by analysts. Investors will continue to monitor employment data throughout the week. However, tonight’s Federal Reserve press conference and forward guidance will be key for the foreseeable future. Particularly, a clear indication of a rate cut in September and another by the end of the year. Analysts advise the regulator will maintain the base rate at 5.25–5.50% for the eighth consecutive meeting. However, during the press conference, Fed Chair Jerome Powell might hint at a 0.25% point rate cut in September, the first in over four years. Futures tied to the US interest rate suggest the possibility of three rate cuts this year, though most experts anticipate only two, in September and December. The NASDAQ’s price still remains below the trend-line and 100-Period SMA. In addition to this, the RSI trades at the Neutral level. Therefore, the price is not yet obtaining a clear longer-term buy signal yet. However, investors who wish to speculate the recent upward price movement can aim for the recent resistance level at $19,194.03, which is also in line with the trend-line.

Date: 30th July 2024. US Employment Data in the Spotlight as Fed Decision Looms US ECONOMY The US Dollar Index rises to its highest level in 20 days and breaks above its recent price range. The market turns its attention to tomorrow tonight’s Federal Reserve Press Conference. Investors will be monitoring any indications of rate cuts for September. Analysts again expect the consumer confidence to drop below the 100 level, but investors are more concerned about lower job openings. McDonald’s stocks rise as the company confirms a new meal plan to target lower-income consumers. Company earnings miss expectations. EURUSD – Will US Data Prompt A Dovish Fed? The EURUSD exchange rate is likely to witness high volatility throughout the day as Germany and Spain are due to release their latest inflation data. In addition to this, the US will release the CB Consumer Confidence Index and JOLTS Job Openings. The US Dollar Index is currently trading 0.13% higher and is rising for a second consecutive day. The Euro Index is currently unchanged and struggled on Monday. The value of the US Dollar is likely to continue to be influenced by the timing and frequency of interest rate adjustments. As a result, the Chairman’s press conference will play a significant role. The Federal Reserve will not change its Fund Rate, but investors believe the Chairman, Jerome Powell, will provide concrete indications for a September and December cut. If Mr Powell is deemed dovish and points towards 2 rate cuts, the US Dollar can potentially come under pressure. The downward pressure can gain momentum today, before tomorrow’s Federal Reserve Statement and Press Conference. If today’s JOLTS Job Opening reads lower than expectations (8.02 million), it would be the lowest seen since April 2021. This would fall in line with previous guidance regarding lower economic growth in the second half of 2024. As a result, the Dollar can witness pressure and the Fed may become more dovish. The Euro on the other hand will depend largely on the German inflation data. So far, Spain has released their inflation figures which showed that Spanish inflation fell from 3.4% to 2.8% and below the previous expectation of 3.00%. The release has put some pressure on the exchange rate, but not lasting downward pressure. If German inflation also reads lower, the Euro can witness a potential stronger selloff. The value of the EURUSD remains below the trend line, sentiment line and the neutral on the RSI. In addition to this, the asset trades in the lower band of the Bollinger Bands. However, after yesterday’s quick decline the exchange rate has retraced back upwards. Therefore, investors will be monitoring when the asset regains bearish momentum. If upward momentum gains momentum, the trend-line points towards a target at 1.08495 or 1.08420. USA500 – Will The Price Break The Ascending Triangle Pattern? The SNP500 forms an ascending triangle pattern which is known to indicate bullish price movement, but only if the price can form a clear breakout. The resistance level at $5,499.12 is key for this as it has triggered a decline on 4 occasions over the past 4 trading days. In addition to this, the level falls in line with the 75-Period EMA and 100-Period SMA. McDonald’s released their quarterly earnings report on Monday. The company’s earnings fell 3% lower than expectations while revenue was 2% lower. However, the stock still rose by almost 4.00% as the company said a new $5 meal plan will start to entice lower income consumers. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 29th July 2024. The Japanese Yen Leads as Global Central Banks Anticipate Cuts! A Japanese flag flutters atop the Bank of Japan building in Tokyo, Japan, September 21, 2016. REUTERS/Toru Hanai/File Photo - RTX2UM36 Markets watch global central banks confirm their latest rate decision. This week includes Bank of Japan, Federal Reserve and Bank of England. Global stocks rose on Monday! The NASDAQ rises 0.67% as major tech-earnings edge nearer. Tuesday’s earnings releases include Microsoft, ADM and Starbucks. Analysts expect the Fed to ready the markets for their first interest rate cut since 2020. USA100 – Market Shows A “Risk-On” Appetite Ahead Of Microsoft Earnings! After a nearly 10% drop in July, the NASDAQ seeks to regain momentum before a major bank decision. This week’s central bank decisions include Bank of Japan, Federal Reserve and Bank of England. Analysts expect the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England to keep interest rates unchanged but signal to the market that an adjustment will take place in September. However, according to most analysts, the Bank of England is more likely to cut than the Fed if a shock decision is to take place. The latest price action forms higher highs and lows but continues to remain below the recent high from June 25th. As a result, technical analysts advise a correction is not yet fully signaled. According to fundamentalists, strong earnings data on Tuesday is not likely required to strengthen signals pointing to a full correction. Tuesday evening will see Microsoft, AMD and Starbucks release their latest earnings reports. The three companies make up more than 10% of the weight of the NASDAQ, hence can trigger strong volatility. Analysts expect Microsoft, the second most influential stock for the NASDAQ, to see earnings remain unchanged from the previous quarter and revenue to rise by $2.58 billion. The stock this year so far has risen 14.70% and $52 below its recent high. According to fundamental analysts, if the earnings data from Microsoft and AMD beat expectations and the Fed confirms a rate cut in September, the possibility of a correction significantly increases, if not certain. Currently, the market movement indicates a higher risk appetite and sentiment amongst investors. All global indices are trading higher including the DAX, Euro Stoxx 50 and Nikkei225. In addition to this, US bond yields fall as does the VIX. If both continue to fall, the movement will indicate a “risk on” appetite. GBPJPY – Will the BoE Adjust Interest Rates? The Japanese Yen has been by far the best performing currency over the past week, increasing in value by 2.50%. The British Pound is also the worst performing currency of the day declining by 0.20%. According to experts, the Bank of England is not likely to cut interest rates at this week’s rate decision but will lay the path down for a rate cut at the next meeting. Suren Thiru, economics director at the ICAEW, advises he still expects the BoE to lower interest rates to 4.75% by the end of 2024, however, “a rate cut this month is looking less likely”,whereas a Reuters poll found that 80.0% of respondents, expect the UK regulator to cut interest rates in August. Nonetheless, a shock rate cut or a clear signal for the next rate decision can still pressure the British Pound if the signal is clear enough. Simultaneously, the JPY is benefiting as the only currency to see a strengthening monetary policy while the rest of the world cuts. If the price drops below 197.077, the breakout can signal a downward price movement for the short term. Whereas a breakout of the 196.790 level will signal a slightly longer-term signal. the most recent support level currently sits at 195.840. In addition to this, on a 2-Hour Timeframe, the exchange rate forms a head and shoulder pattern and trades below most Moving Averages. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 26th July 2024. The Yen Soars as the Likelihood of a BoJ Rate Hike Rises! The Japanese Yen wins back some lost ground as global Central Banks edge closer to rate cuts. The probability of another interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan increases. July’s best performing currencies are the Japanese Yen (+4.35%), British Pound (+1.41%) and the Swiss Franc (+1.41%). Currencies are taking advantage of the weaker US Dollar, but the worst performing currency remains the New Zealand Dollar. USDJPY – Growing Likelihood of a Second BoJ Rate Hike! The USDJPY increases in value for a third consecutive week and for a fourth consecutive day. Three factors are contributing to the Dollar decline: The Fed’s upcoming interest cut, the Bank of Japan’s interest rate hike and the political uncertainty in the US. The day’s best performing currency is the Japanese Yen which is currently increasing in value against all currencies. Currently, the USDJPY is trading below the trend-line and below the 100-Period SMA which indicates in the medium-term sellers are controlling the price actions. The exchange rate is also below the neutral on all oscillators and forms a clear bearish trend price pattern. Currently the only indications pointing towards a loss of bearish momentum is the diversion formed on the RSI. As a result, even though the trend clearly forms downwards, investors need to be cautious of a potential retracement. If the price trades above 152.96, a larger retracement becomes likely. However, if the price falls below 152.015, momentum will indicate the continuation of the downward trend to 151.674 in the short term and 151.267 thereafter. The likelihood of further monetary policy tightening by the Japanese regulator is growing. Preliminary data for July showed an increase in business activity, indicating a recovery in the national economy. The consumer price index remains above the target level, reaching 2.8% in June, with the core indicator stabilizing around 2.6%. Officials are optimistic about maintaining these high levels, supported by significant wage increases. According to Reuters, Bank of Japan officials will discuss the possibility of raising the interest rate at their meeting on July 31st. Analysts do not expect active measures until after the summer months. However, investors will price in the adjustment before the decision takes place. The US Fed experts may turn to “dovish” rhetoric in September, which puts pressure on the dollar. Currently, inflation is slowing growth, business activity is declining, and the labor market is showing signs of cooling. The US PMI data from yesterday largely triggered an attempted bullish correction but was viewed as mixed. The price action of the US Dollar and the USDJPY will now largely depend on the Gross Domestic Product and Weekly Unemployment Claims. These will be made public at 12:30 GMT. Analysts expect the US economy to grow 2.0%. If the US GDP reading is lower than expectations, the US Dollar potentially can come under pressure. At the same time, weaker earnings data from the US can trigger higher demand for the Japanese Yen. The Yen is known as a safe haven currency alternative to the Dollar.

Date: 25th July 2024. Market News – AI mania over? Stocks, Gold & oil dip; Yen Surges. Economic Indicators & Central Banks: Wall Street plunged and Treasuries bear steepened in an anxious trade. News that ex-Fed president Dudley was now calling for the FOMC to cut rates next week amid recession fears added to investor angst. European stock markets continued to decline alongside Asian equity futures, intensifying a global downturn in technology shares following US session, as investors are pulling back on the artificial-intelligence frenzy that has powered the bull market this year. Traders moved away from megacaps to underperforming segments of the market, driven by expectations of Fed rate cuts and doubts about AI’s immediate payoff. Nasdaq experienced its largest single-day drop since 2022, while S&P 500 breaks Its longest run without a 2% drop since 2007. The Canadian Dollar dropped as the Bank of Canada cut rates, emphasizing “downside risks are taking on increased weight in our monetary policy deliberations.” The Japanese Yen reached its highest level since May as carry trades unwound. Key events today: Germany IFO business climate, US GDP, initial jobless claims, durable goods. Asian & European Open: Tech led the slump with the NASDAQ dropping -3.64%, the biggest 1-day selloff since March 2020. The S&P500 fell -2.31%. The Dow dropped -1.25%. Disappointing news from Alphabet and Tesla after the bell Tuesday got the bears going and rising concerns over the staying power of AI trades exacerbated declines through the day. In Japan, Nikkei entered a technical correction while the broad Topix index, which had reached a record high earlier this month, plunged over 2.5%, erasing its July gains and hitting a five-week low. Earning: Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta are set to report results next week. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex tumbled to 104.12 in morning action, down from Tuesday’s 104.45, but rallied back slightly to close at 104.37. The Yen holds strong thanks to expectations for a BoJ rate hike next Wednesday, with USDJPY breaching 200-day EMA. The USD firmed versus CAD after the BoC’s dovish cut. The USDCAD reached April’s peak at 1.3827. Oil prices declined, but are once again trying to stabilize, following API data showing that US crude inventories declined by 3.9 million barrels last week. Inventories have declined for four straight weeks now. However, weak growth in top importer China and renewed optimism of a ceasefire in the Middle East have kept supply expectations underpinned. WTI is currently trading at USD 77.38 per barrel, Brent at USD 81.49 as markets wait for the official U.S. inventory report. Gold is down to $2370 to a two-week low. The downfall could be attributed to some technical selling, though it is expected to be limited, considering the fundamentals, such as Fed’s cut and the risk-off mood which could support Gold ahead of the US data.

Date: 24th July 2024. Market News – Stocks dip as earnings disappoint; Yen strengthens further. Economic Indicators & Central Banks: The market faces pressure entering a seasonally weak period, with potential increased volatility due to the upcoming US presidential election. Asian stocks and US stock futures also fell, impacted by earnings reports from large American firms like Tesla Inc. and Alphabet Inc., which were seen as insufficient to sustain the recent global equity rally. European stock futures declined as investors evaluated the disappointing initial results from the “Magnificent Seven” megacap tech companies. The Yen strengthened for the third consecutive day ahead of next week’s Bank of Japan meeting. Asian & European Open: The S&P500 and Dow slipped -0.16% and -0.14%, respectively, and the NASDAQ slid -0.06%. The VIX was down -1.74% to 14.65 and has eased from the 16.52 level on Friday, the highest since April amid rising political risks and anxieties. Taiwan’s stock market was closed due to Typhoon Gaemi, meaning shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. did not trade. Alphabet shares fell after the company indicated that it would take time to see tangible results from its AI investments. Tesla shares dropped as much as 7% following a profit miss and a delay in its Robotaxi event to October. Many of Tesla’s suppliers and electric vehicle peers in Asia also saw declines. Deutsche Bank AG reported its first quarterly loss in 4 years due to a slowdown in trading and a charge related to a legacy issue at its Postbank retail unit. BNP Paribas SA’s profit increased in the second quarter, driven by a surge in equities trading revenue. United Parcel Service Inc. experienced its worst drop ever following a profit miss. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex had found its footing, firming to 104.25 versus 103.90 on Monday. The Yen appreciated beyond 155 for the first time since early June as traders anticipated a potential interest rate hike from the BOJ in the coming months, if not at next week’s meeting. According to a Bloomberg survey, around 30% of BOJ watchers expect a rate hike on July 31, but over 90% believe there is a risk of such a move. The NZDUSD dropped at 0.5900 to its lowest level in nearly 3 months as lower bond yields discouraged carry trade investors. Oil fell -1.45% to $77.26, though managed to edge up from the $76.40 session low. It is a 4th straight decline from $82.85 Wednesday and the weakest since mid-June. Most of week’s selling was on technicals after penetrating 50- and 100-day MA. Gold is up to $2418 per ounce. It was at an all-time closing peak of $2469.08 on July 16 amid expectations for Fed rate cuts, US political risks, and the drop in the US Dollar. Of note, India lowered its import duty on gold to 6% from 15% which should support jewelry manufacturing. India is next only to China in terms of consumer demand.

Date: 23rd July 2024. Market News – Asia stocks up; Yen Strengthens. Economic Indicators & Central Banks: Markets paused after recent volatility and a tech selloff driven by high valuations and sector rotation. US election developments continue to dominate, with Kamala Harris securing enough pledged delegates for the Democratic presidential nomination, providing some political clarity. Asian stocks climbed, driven by gains in chipmakers following a Wall Street rebound ahead of major tech earnings reports. Treasury yields fell ahead of economic data releases and the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure. Throughout July, speculation about a September rate cut boosted shorter-term bonds, narrowing their yield gap with longer-term securities. Asian & European Open: US equity futures dipped, and Euro Stoxx 50 contracts rose in anticipation of earnings from Tesla Inc. and Alphabet Inc. later today. Nasdaq and S&P500 were both up more than 1%, reversing some of last week’s painful decline. The “Magnificent Seven” stocks rose over 2% on Monday, led by Tesla and Nvidia Corp. Toyota Motor Corp. plans to repurchase shares from major Japanese banks and insurers as part of a ¥1 trillion buyback plan. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex remains in a ranging market, between 103.90-104.15. The Yen appreciated against the US Dollar, as traders adjusted their carry positions during the summer holiday season, with USDJPY breaching 156.20. Some Bank of Japan officials are open to raising rates at the July meeting, though weak consumer spending complicates the decision. Oil prices remained steady near a 6-week low as traders awaited new data on market balances and US stockpile forecasts. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 22nd July 2024. Market News – Uncertainty remains the bane of the markets! Economic Indicators & Central Banks: President Biden announced he is withdrawing from the re-election campaign. In a subsequent comment, he stated his support for Kamala Harris. He will address the nation later this week. This throws the Democrat party into more disarray as it heads into its convention from August 19-22. These uncertainties will further shake up the markets when trading opens. For weeks, investors have speculated about an increased likelihood of Donald Trump winning the November election, especially after Biden’s underwhelming debate performance. Now, with Biden exiting the race, investors are reconsidering their strategies regarding a potential Trump victory. China’s PBoC cut its 7-day reverse repo rate by -10 bps to 1.70% from 1.80% in a surprise move coming out of the Third Plenum. Earnings:Tesla Inc. and Alphabet Inc. will kick off earnings reports for the “Magnificent Seven” on Tuesday, while major European banks are set to report their earnings this week as well. Analysts will be watching to see if the benefits from higher interest rates are diminishing and how recent political developments are impacting market sentiment. Asian & European Open: It is a cautious, choppy start to trading in the wake of the news. This negative start to the week mirrored the losses seen on Wall Street on Friday, as businesses globally dealt with a major technology outage. Asian stock markets mostly fell after President Joe Biden’s announcement. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng has rallied 0.82% but the Nikkei is down -1.3% amid the fallout from Friday’s slump on Wall Street. US futures remained relatively stable while European stock futures are higher. Financial Markets Performance: The USDIndex has traded narrowly, but initially dropped to 103.90 versus Friday’s close at 104.396. It is mixed against its G10 peers. USDCNY has been jumpy, impacted both by the PBoC’s news as well as the Biden news earlier. The buck rose to 7.2737 in early action before sliding to 7.2706. It has edged back to 7.2730. Metals showed mixed results following their worst weekly decline in nearly two years, with a rate cut in China helping to stabilize the market. Always trade with strict risk management.

Date: 19th July 2024. Global Stocks Tumble as Risk Appetite Plummets! US ECONOMY The NASDAQ declines for a third straight day and fell to its lowest level for July. Netflix Quarterly Earnings Report unable to support US indices. The Dow Jones loses momentum after 6 straight bullish days. The US Dollar Index attempts to regain losses from earlier in the week and trades 0.65% higher than yesterdays The British Pound comes under pressure from the decline in Retail Sales. However, the New Zealand Dollar continues to be the worst performing currency. GBPUSD The British Pound against the US Dollar is losing momentum for two reasons. The first is that the exchange rate is largely being driven by the Dollar which has risen in value across the board. The US Dollar Index is attempting to regain loses from earlier in the week and trades 0.65% higher than yesterdays open. This is partially due to the lower price but also the lower investor sentiment as stocks falls over the past 3 trading days. The second reason is the poor economic data from the UK which is likely to pressure the Bank of England to adjust interest rates at the next meeting. According to economists a 25-basis point cut at the next meeting is not yet certain. However, a cut will take place either on the 1st of August or September 19th unless something drastic changes. The poor data includes the number of new unemployed individuals which has considerably risen over the past 2 months. This morning, the UK government also confirmed Retail Sales has fallen 1.2% which is double the decline previously expected. For the US, weekly employment data was released yesterday: the number of Unemployment claims rose by 243,000, exceeding both the forecast of 229,000 and the previous figure of 223,000. Additionally, the total number of citizens receiving government assistance increased from 1.847 million to 1.867 million, raising the likelihood of interest rate adjustments in September. According to most analysts, the rate cut for September is fully priced in at around 103.20 for as long as other central banks also adjust. The US Federal Reserve’s Beige Book, published this week, indicates that economic activity is growing at a moderate pace, but businesses expect a slowdown over the next six months due to the US election campaign and consumers struggling with prices. However, the lower risk appetite is triggering higher demand for the Dollar over the past 48 hours. It’s vital investors continue to monitor the US Dollar Index while analysing the GBPUSD. The price of the exchange is now trading below the 75-Period EMA and below the 50.00 on the RSI. This indicates low sentiment towards the Pound and bearish control for the time being. Fibonacci retracement levels indicate a sell signal will arise at the 1.29290 price whereas the breakout level indicates 1.29261. however, if the price rises above 1.29400 or the trendline, short-term sell signals become unlikely. USA100 The price of the NASDAQ has now fallen for 3 consecutive days but did see less downward momentum compared to Wednesday’s collapse. The index has now fully corrected the gains for the first 2 weeks of the month and is trading close to the previous support level. However, as previously mentioned, due to the higher economic risk, investors will most likely need strong earnings data to be tempted to purchase the discount unless the price becomes even more favourable. The price of Bond Yields has risen during this morning’s Asian session and the VIX is also trading slightly higher. The VIX this week has already added almost 10% which indicates a significant decline in risk appetite. In addition to this, the poor data from the rest of the world’s leading economies can also damage sentiment towards stocks. Currently the biggest indication for short term upward price movement is the lower price and potential upcoming earnings data. Netflix has released their earnings report overnight. The company’s earnings read 2.40% higher than expectations at $4.88 and revenue was 3 million higher than expectations. However, the stock is yet to see any major volatility or support. Currently the stock trades 0.18% lower. Always trade with strict risk management. Your capital is the single most important aspect of your trading business.
