General analysis USDCAD for 13.06.2022

Current Dynamics.

The USD/CAD pair rose at the beginning of todays trading session. The pair continued to maintain its gains for the fourth consecutive session.

Some may refer the main reason for the rise of the US dollar to the recent macroeconomic data, which showed the great inflationary pressures facing the US economy, which increased expectations that the Federal Reserve will accelerate the pace in raising interest rates at a faster pace in the upcoming meetings to hold down inflation.

The data of the US Census Bureau showed that the consumer price inflation index in the country rose on a monthly basis by 1% during last May, exceeding expectations for an increase of 0.7%, and the index rose by its basic value when excluding energy and food prices by 0.6% last month, exceeding expectations for a 0.5% increase.

On an annual basis, the US consumer price index rose 8.6% on an annual basis in May, the highest level since 1981, and exceeded expectations for a rise of 8.3%.

Commenting on the latest economic data, former US Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers said that the Federal Reserve had failed to correct its mistakes on inflation, which damaged its credibility, after the recent inflation data ended hopes for a peak. Summers warned of the Federal Reserve’s delay in raising the interest rate to control inflation, noting that discussions should be about raising interest rates between 50 to 75 basis points in the coming period. Besides that, US President Joe Biden said, “We will live with this inflation for a while, it will gradually decrease, but we will live with it for a while.”

Besides the statements, the numbers confirm that US inflation has not reached its peak yet, and that the Federal Reserve, which has committed to raise interest rates at each of its next two meetings, starting next week, will have to maintain this hawkish attitude during its September meeting.

In view of the most important events that may affect the performance of the pair, the US macroeconomic data will be present and strongly through the Producer price index for the month of May, along with the most important event which is the interest rate decision by the Federal Reserve.

General analysis AUDUSD for 14.06.2022

Current Dynamics


The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development warned that the Reserve Bank of Australia might need to increase interest rates more aggressively. The Commonwealth Bank of Australia predicted a sharp decline of housing prices. The U.S. dollar index hit a 20-year high. U.S. consumer sentiment fell to its lowest level since records began.
The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) may need to raise interest rates more aggressively to curb inflation, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) warned. Also, the OECD declared that it expects the monetary rate will reach 2.5% by the end of 2023. The organization also warned that strong global inflationary pressures and a tight labor market pose an additional risk of higher inflation in Australia. Expect the Australian economy to grow by 4.2% in 2022, a little faster than the 4.1% growth rate projected in December but now expected to slower growth in 2023 to 2.5% instead of 3%. It is worth noting that the OECD believes that skilled migration will begin after the opening of international borders. Australia's engineering vacancy rate is growing by 97% in 12 months.
However, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia is now expecting house prices to fall by 18% as the RBA continues to increase interest rates to beat the highest inflation in 32 years. The RBA currently expects inflation in Australia to continue to increase and reach 6.25% by the end of the year.
Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index rose above 105 points for the first time since December 2002. A rising U.S. dollar index means it is strengthening against a basket of currencies. Nevertheless, the U.S. Michigan Consumer Sentiment fell to 50.2, its lowest level since records began. Also, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed that prices increased 8.6% in May from a year earlier, which is the fastest annual jump since late 1981. U.S. consumers' assessment of their personal financial situation deteriorated sharply. Half of all U.S. consumers spontaneously mentioned gasoline during interviews, and 46% of consumers attributed their worsening estimates to inflation.
In the short term we should expect further strengthening of the U.S. dollar. However, in Australia, judging by the labor market, there is potential for industrial and mining growth, while in the U.S., on the contrary, a sharp increase in interest rates in order to deal with inflation may lead to a recession. The Fed's next Interest Rate Decision is Wednesday.

The U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) MoM will be released at 14:30 (GMT+2) today.
Experts forecast an increase of 0.8%. Australia Westpac Consumer Sentiment will be released tomorrow at 02:30 (GMT+2) and later in the day at 22:00 (GMT+2), Fed Interest Rate Decision will be released. It is expected to be increased by 50 bps to 1.50%.

General analysis USDJPY for 15.06.2022

Current dynamics

USD/JPY consolidates around 135.000 amid silence before the announcement of the new key rate in the U.S.

Suspension of so rapid growth in the pair, which has overcome a mark of 135.500 the day before, probably due to falling U.S. Treasury yields and traders expecting the announcement of a new key rate later today.

In addition, there was positive macroeconomic news on Japan earlier today, with Core Orders for machinery production coming in at 10.8% for April versus expectations of -1.5% and 7.1% last month. Annual data for the same indicator was 19% against expectations of 5.3% and 7.6% last year, respectively. Thus, it seems that the cheap money policy so consistently pursued by the Bank of Japan is beginning to bring its dividends, causing positive expectations in the industrial area of the economy.

Also in this situation the Japanese stock markets showed decline, so Nikkei 225 and Topix decreased by about 0.6%. Companies related to the technology and energy sectors showed the biggest drop, amid difficulties with the logistics of technological components and rising oil prices. In such a difficult situation the growth of orders in machine-building is conditioned by persisting high domestic consumer demand and desire of economic agents to convert monetary savings into material goods.

At the same time, not the most favorable economic news was released in USA, in particular the US Dollar Index (DXY) showed decline from recent highs reflecting a similar drop in government bond yields.

The key interest rate hike expected by most analysts is 75 basis points. Thus on the pair it is expected continuation of a bullish trend, and, certainly, the further movement upwards cannot be avoided in a situation when the Bank of Japan is the only central bank of the largest economies in the world, continuing a soft monetary policy in the current circumstances.

In addition to the pairs fateful announcement of a new Fed key rate and FOMC statement today, USD/JPY traders should keep an eye on the following macroeconomic news that could affect further developments: Core Retail Sales Index, May Retail Sales and U.S. Crude Oil Stocks also today, annual export, import and trade balance in Japan tomorrow.

General analysis USDJPY for 17.06.2022

Current Dynamics.


Japanese farmers are going to cut rice production and start planting wheat and soybeans. Japan's leader said he would set up a working group to fight inflation. The second-largest foreign trade deficit in the history of observations recorded by the Ministry of Finance of Japan in May.
Japanese farmers are going to cut rice production and start planting wheat and soybeans, considering rising grain prices. As of today, 80 percent of the wheat and 90 percent of the soybeans needed for the country's population are bought abroad, for which prices have risen significantly. At the same time, rice consumption and prices in Japan have been declining since 1962 as Japanese lifestyles change and life expectancy declines.
Meanwhile, Japan's government has said that if import prices of wheat remain elevated after September, the government will hold meat prices down by offering compensation to producers to offset higher feed costs. This would reduce production costs for basic agricultural products by about 10 percent to counter rising fertilizer prices.
Along with this, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said he would create a task force to fight inflation and stimulate wage growth.
Meanwhile, the second-largest foreign trade deficit in the history of monitoring was fixed by the Ministry of Finance of Japan in May at 2.38 trillion yen ($ 17.7 billion). It is worth noting that in some industries there is a significant reduction in exports. For example, Japan sold cars to China for 36.3% of the lower sum than it was in May 2021. In addition, the volume of exports of the equipment used in the production of microcircuits decreased. It is worth noting that the deficit has been observed for the 10th month in a row and is mainly due to the high cost of raw materials.
At the same time there was negative news in the US labor market and construction sector. U.S. Initial Jobless Claims totaled 229K in May and U.S. Building Permits decreased to 1.695M. 
The Bank of Japan is starting to be pressured by the Japanese government to take measures to fight inflation and stabilize the yen. In the U.S., there are negative signals in the labor market, which previously allowed the White House to speak about the strength of the U.S. economy.

The USD/CAD pair opened todays trading session with a decline. The Canadian dollar continued its gains for the second session in a row, after the pair reached its highest level at 1.30787 in last Fridays session.

Combined with the US holiday, the light calendar and traders hesitation about the next market moves, along with their fears of faster monetary policy tightening and an economic slowdown, all of this put downward pressure on the US dollar.

However, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellens statements came to confirm that a recession is not inevitable in the United States, with expectations of a slowdown in the economy in the midst of its transition to slow and stable growth.

On the other hand, according to statements by members of the US Federal Reserve, the US Central Bank is determined to continue raising US interest rates without regard to fears of economic stagnation until US inflation stops its record rise.

On the other hand, the US dollar index DXY is still extending the beginning of the week’s losses to 104.30, down 0.20%, while the 10-year US Treasury yields recorded a three-day bullish trend around 3.284%.

All eyes will be on as Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will testify in his semi-annual monetary policy report before the Senate on Wednesday and will repeat his statement before a different committee on Thursday, where market participants will look for clues about economic developments in the US.

Looking at the most important events that may affect the pair’s performance, on the American side, in addition to Jerome Powells statements on Wednesday and Thursday, there will also be a reading of the final consumer confidence in Michigan for the month of June, and this week we will also see the results of the existing home sales indicators, along with orders mortgage and initial unemployment benefits claims.

General analysis Brent for 22.06.2022

Current Dynamics


The head of the U.S. Treasury revealed the mechanism for reducing Russia's oil revenues. After another increase of selling prices the head of Petrobras resigned. In the UK, fuel prices set a new record against the background of the largest railway workers' strike. Saudi Arabia increased oil production in April on 1.4%. The Indian Government called upon the state companies to buy larger volumes of crude oil from Russia.
The head of the US Treasury Department, Janet Yellen, said that the initiative, which is being worked out by the USA and its allies, is called to increase the supplies of Russian oil to the global market and at the same time to reduce its cost.  The countries are considering the possibility of introducing a price limit or exclusion that would reduce the price of Russian oil and limit Russia's revenues, while allowing more oil to enter the market. Such measure will allow the European companies to insure the Russian oil. It is worth noting that Canada and the U.S. admit that rejecting oil from Russia is a "more difficult" situation for Europe.
Meanwhile, Petrobras on Friday announced another increase in selling prices. The cost of diesel fuel for distributors increased on 14.26% and gasoline rose on 5.18%. After which the head of the Brazilian national oil and gas company Petrobras Jose Mauro Coelho resigned.
Against the backdrop of a strike of railway workers in the UK, fuel prices set new records. According to the car service company RAC, on average 1 liter of unleaded gasoline cost £1.887 and diesel fuel - £1.961. Is worth noting that over the year the average cost of gasoline in the kingdom has grown on 45% and diesel fuel - 48%.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia in April increased oil production by 1.4%. In annual terms, the value jumped on 28.4%. Exports rose 2% to 7.382 million barrels per day (bpd), 36.5% higher than April 2021. 
However, Russia displaced Saudi Arabia from the first place in the list of the main suppliers of oil to China. Russian oil shipments to China totaled nearly 1.98 million b/d in May, which is 25% more than in April and 55% more than in May 2021.
At the same time, the Indian government strongly recommends its state companies to buy "large volumes" of crude oil from Russia with a discount. It is worth noting that during the period from May 27 to June 15, India has increased its purchases of Russian oil by 31 times compared to the same period a year ago.
While there are changes in logistical chains, the deficit of oil will have an effect, but the impending economic crisis and the risk of recession may lead to a reduction in demand for oil.

Today at 22:30 (GMT+2) the American Petroleum Institute (API) will release data on weekly U.S. crude oil inventories. The Energy Information Agency (EIA) will release data on crude oil inventories tomorrow at 17:00 (GMT+2). Inventories are expected to decline by 1.433M.

General analysis AUDUSD for 22.06.2022

Current dynamics

The AUD / USD pair is still subjected to selling pressures, as it witnessed a strong decline in the beginning of today's trading.The decline came to continue the Australian dollar losing its gains last week, which came after the Reserve Bank of Australia announced an interest rate hike.  

In addition to the weak investor appetite for risk, some may attribute the main reason for the increase in the demand for the dollar to the optimistic view by investors that the US Federal Reserve will stick to its tightening policy, raising interest rates at a faster pace to combat high inflation following the statements of the Fed members. 
US Federal Reserve member Thomas Barkin said that the Fed should raise interest rates as quickly as possible without breaking anything. We expect that message to be delivered again today when Powell delivers his semi-annual testimony before the Senate. 
Also Christopher Waller, a member of the US Federal Reserve, added that he supports another increase in interest rates by 75 basis points at the central bank meeting in July if economic data emerges as he expects. 
On the other hand, the US dollar index rose 0.4% at 104.83, coinciding with a limited decline in the yield on US Treasuries, which are trading near their highest levels in 11 years, as the yield on 10-year Treasuries reached 3.23%, and US home sales fell increased by 3.4% to 5.41 million in May 2022, the lowest level since June 2020.
Looking ahead and the scarcity of economic data on the Australian side, market investors' eyes will now turn to Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's semi-annual testimony before the Senate Banking Committee, scheduled for later during the North American session, in addition to his testimony on Thursday before the Joint Economic Committee in Washington. Support and resistance levels

General analysis USD/CHF for 24.06.2022

Current Dynamics

The USD/CHF pair opened lower at the beginning of todays trading session. The pair lost all of its gains in the second half of yesterdays session, continuing the bearish performance from mid-June.

The pairs losses came after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powells statements yesterday, Thursday, during his statement before the US Senate Banking Committee, regarding the possibility of the economy being exposed to a recession during his effort to suppress inflation.

Where Powell stated that the central bank is not trying to create an environment that pushes towards a recession, but it is certainly possible, given the recent global events, especially the Russian-Ukraine war and the Covid-19 pandemic, which made it more difficult to hold down inflation without side effects. He added that the major goal for them is to achieve a safe drop in inflation rates, but the path to this goal has many challenges, and that the Central Bank is committed to controlling inflation and has the tools to achieve this goal. As Fed Member Michael Bowman added on Thursday, she supports a 75 basis point rate hike in July followed by 50 basis point increases in the next few meetings.

On the other hand, US unemployment data was released and recorded 229 thousand unemployment claims, while experts expected to receive 227 thousand unemployment claims, and the previous reading recorded 231 thousand unemployment claims, and the manufacturing purchasing managers index returned to the lowest level in two years, about 52.4 points during this June, less than expected growth by 56.0 points, and the previous reading declared 57.0 points last May. The preliminary reading of the Services Purchasing Managers Index also showed a negative reading of 51.6 points, less than the market expectations that announced the index’s growth by 53.5 points during the same period, and the previous reading recorded a growth of 53.4 points during last May.

In addition, S&P 500 futures declined 0.30% while US 10-year Treasury yields remained unchanged at around 3.09% after dropping to a two-week low the previous day.

Looking at the most important events affecting the pair, investors attention will be directed to the US macroeconomic data represented in new home sales for the month of May, as well as the Michigan consumer confidence index.

General analysis USDJPY for 27.06.2022

Current Dynamics

Growth in manufacturing activity in Japan slowed in June. Sales at Japanese department stores increased for the third month in a row. Political parties in Japan are focusing on raising wages for citizens in their pre-election campaigns. IMF supports the U.S. Federal Reserve's decision to increase the benchmark interest rate up to 3.5-4%
Growth in manufacturing activity in Japan slowed in June. It is worth noting that overall new orders declined for the first time in nine months because of increasing pressure on already disrupted supply chains, while output is growing at its slowest pace in 3 months.
At the same time, department store sales in Japan have increased for the third month in a row. Sales are up 57.8% compared to 2021. Consumer demand for luxury goods such as precious metals and jewelry has revived along with high demand for summer clothing. However, sales were lower on 10.5 % compared to three years ago.
Meanwhile, within the framework of pre-election race political parties in Japan put measures aimed to raise the minimum wage, as well as tax benefits at the forefront of their campaigns.
It is also worth noting that Japan's first central government has issued a warning about energy shortages. Japanese government asks citizens to make efforts to save electricity, especially from 15 to 18 hours.
Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund supports the U.S. Federal Reserve's policy of raising the benchmark interest rate to 3.5-4% to fight high inflation.  The Fund forecasts U.S. GDP will reach 1.7% this year and 0.8% in 2023. According to the Fund, the inflation will reach 5.4% at the end of this year and in 2023 it will be around 2%.  It also follows from the IMF statement that the USA has less and less chance to avoid recession. It should be reminded that the inflation rate in the USA is now fixed on the level of 8.6%.
A weak yen makes Japanese industry a more attractive place to invest, but further weakening could severely lower the purchasing power of the Japanese. At the same time, the US will continue to tighten its monetary policy but it could lead to a recession and further manufacturing shutdowns.

The latest rise in the pair was caused by the bulls positive expectations for the further growth in quotations because of the ambiguous macroeconomic data on the USA along with the coming hypothetical increase in the key rate by the European Central Bank.

On the European side, the reason for the pair to enter the correction, most likely, is the factor of the geopolitical tension caused by the armed conflict in Ukraine. Thus, the rhetoric of the Russian Federation representatives in response to the announcement of the technical default and prohibition of the transit of critical economic resources by the Lithuanian government causes a natural pressure in Western Europe. Among other things, it is much more difficult for European countries in the current situation to cope with disruptions in production supply chains than it is for the United States.

On the greenback side the reasons for the current trend are the following positive data that came out yesterday and pleased the bulls on the US dollar: The volume of durable goods orders for May rose much stronger than expected - 0.7% against the expected 0.1% and the previous 0.4%. A similarly strong data release was also seen in the Pending Home Sales Index for May, also 0.7%, but this time the gap with the expected number was even bigger (-3.7% vs. -4.0% for the previous month). However, this is just local good news for the North American economy as the stock market continues its decline and Treasury yields continue to rise.

The macroeconomic news, is to be published soon and which may affect further movements of the pair, are the speeches of ECB Chairman Lagarde and ECB representatives Lane, Elderson and Panetta. On the US side is the Consumer Confidence Index for June. The above data will be released later today.
