    \n
  • The head of the local Chicago Fed, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Austan Goolsbee<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, emphasized that inflation currently remains the biggest challenge for the US economy. However, he noted that the stable condition of consumers should protect the market from a deeper downturn, although he described the labor market itself as stable but far from very good.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Existing home sales in the US in July reached <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>4.06 million<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> on an annualized basis, which was minimally above the expected 4.05 million. Despite beating forecasts, the real estate market remains sluggish due to high mortgage interest rates, and prices rose by <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>2.0%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> year-over-year.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Trade representatives from the US and Canada are finalizing the details of a potential economic agreement they plan to present next week.

  • The rating agency <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Fitch Ratings<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> warned that China’s growing economic competitiveness poses an increasing challenge to the economic growth of the European Union.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • The Australian central bank (RBA) decided to keep interest rates at the current level, which met market expectations. Investors Down Under are now focusing on global impulses, awaiting key inflation data from the US.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • After 7 pm, the yield on US 10-year bonds is <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>4.68%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, German 10-year bonds reached a yield of <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>3.16%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, and the yield on British debt securities is <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>4.96%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>. It is worth noting that despite weak data from the US labor market and the expectation of falling inflation, yields in the US remain high, which does not justify the high prices of gold.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

The German index gained <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.26%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, closing at 26,391.43 pts, while the Spanish benchmark rose by <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.20%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, supported by a strong corporate earnings season and hopes for de-escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. Looking at the futures contracts, DE40 is currently gaining 0.14%, and SPA35 is rising by 0.32%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
    • The quarterly earnings season on Wall Street is nearing its end, and investors’ attention is focused on whether the current gains can maintain momentum.

    • The American giant <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Nvidia<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> plans to launch a financing program aimed at supporting the next wave of artificial intelligence development on Wall Street.

Additionally, the company is working on a new <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Nemotron 4<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> model with a trillion parameters, which is set to directly compete with OpenAI solutions.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n

    • The sportswear manufacturers sector came under strong pressure after the disappointing financial results of the <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>On Holding<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> brand for the second quarter, which also decided to lower its annual revenue forecast. This translated into drops in the valuations of other industry giants, such as <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Nike<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Puma<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, and <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Adidas<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n

        \n
      • The US dollar is moving in a consolidation zone, and investors are holding back from larger movements ahead of the <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>CPI<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> inflation data publication. This reading will be a key factor for the Federal Reserve when making decisions on a potential change in interest rates in September. Inflation is expected to fall slightly but remain clearly above the target.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
      • The Japanese <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>yen<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> is once again showing weakness against major currencies, indicating that the government’s previous currency interventions had only a short-term impact on the market. Investors are increasingly looking for decisive steps and rate hikes from the Bank of Japan.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
      • The Brazilian real was the weakest emerging market currency, losing nearly <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>1%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> against the dollar. The weakening of the currency results from growing political risk and pre-election polls favoring President Lula, which overshadowed the hawkish statements of the local central bank indicating the need to maintain a restrictive monetary policy.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
      • The currency pair <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>AUDUSD<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> became a focus of interest as the trade of the day, reacting to the RBA’s maintenance of interest rates and the global sentiment related to geopolitical risk.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
      • As of 7 pm, the dollar index gains <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.06%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        • Oil prices were characterized by enormous volatility during the session, returning close to the <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>$88<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> per barrel Brent level. Initial gains were temporarily erased after optimistic communiques from Pakistan about a possible agreement between the US and Iran, but markets quickly returned to purchases following Tehran’s tough rhetoric regarding maintaining the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Additionally, tensions are compounded by statements from representatives of the Iranian army and reports of incidents in other extraction regions. Ultimately, investors show great restraint, knowing that every subsequent diplomatic dispatch can drastically change the balance of power on the charts.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>IRGC<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>) threatened that in the event of aggression from the US, global internet infrastructure, power plants, and thousands of kilometers of energy pipelines would be at risk. At the same time, Iranian representatives noted that potential talks with Oman regarding navigation are independent of the issue of completely closing the strategic strait.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • The US government agency <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>EIA<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> published the STEO report, in which it raised the forecast for US oil production in 2026 to <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>13.8 million<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> barrels per day and natural gas for 2027 to <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>116 billion<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> cubic feet per day. The agency also forecasts that disruptions in oil exports from the Middle East at the level of about <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>600 thousand<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> barrels per day will last at least until the end of 2027.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • Cocoa prices fell today by as much as <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>6%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> after reports of improved production prospects and exports from Ghana, which reduced concerns about a global deficit of this commodity.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • In Libya, a drone attack occurred on a diesel fuel tank at the <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Zawiya<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> refinery, which is another source of tension in the fuel market.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • Chile lowered its copper production forecasts for the second time in a row due to persistent operational and geological problems in the country’s key mines.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • After 7 pm, gold loses <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.15%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, silver loses <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>1.23%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, while WTI crude oil gains <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>1.02%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, Brent crude oil rises by <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.95%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, while natural gas loses <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.69%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, copper gains <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.08%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>, and corn drops by <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>0.31%<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
