डलर मिश्रित फेड पावेलको प्रतीक्षा गर्दै, युरोपियनहरू नरम रहन्छन्

The forex markets are generally steady in Asian session today, as traders are still holding their bets ahead of Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s Jackson Hole speech. US stocks staged a rebound overnight, but there was little reaction elsewhere. For the week, commodity are currently the strongest, led by Aussie. European majors are the worst performers, led by Euro. Dollar and Yen are mixed.

Technically, 10-year yield breached 3.101 resistance this week but couldn’t sustain above there so far. Rejection by 3.101, followed by break of gap support at 2.952, will suggest that corrective pattern from 3.483 is already starting a third leg down towards 2.525 low. In this case, USD/JPY could be dragged down as a corresponding move. Nevertheless, firm break of 3.101 will send TNX towards 3.483, taking USD/JPY higher for a test on 139.37.

In Asia, at the time of writing, Nikkei is up 0.69%. Hong Kong HSI is up 0.70%. China Shanghai SSE is up 0.09%. Singapore Strait Times is up 0.36%. Japan 10-year JGB yield is down -0.007 at 0.223. Overnight, DOW rose 0.98%. S&P 500 rose 1.41%. NASDAQ rose 1.67%. 10-year yield dropped -0.080 to 3.026.

Fed Bullard: Front-loading rate hike could show you are serious about inflation fighting

St. Louis Fed President James Bullard reiterated he would like interest rate to be raised from current 2.25-2.50% to 3.75-4.00% by the end of the year. He added that “front-loading” these rate hikes could “show you are serious about inflation fighting.”

“A baseline would probably be that inflation will be more persistent than many on Wall Street expect, and that’s going to be higher for longer and that’s a risk that is underpriced in markets today,” Bullard added.

Fed George: Too soon to decide September’s rate hike

Kansas City Fed President Esther George told CNBC it’s “too soon to say” regarding September’s rate hike, “because we have some important data that’s coming up.”

“I don’t think we know yet where [the terminal rate for interest rates] may have to settle out, but it will be higher than it is today for sure,” she said.

“We still have high inflation. We saw some easing in the July numbers, but I think it remains broad-based, so there is more work to be done,” George said.

Fed Harker wants rate to get above 3.4%, open to higher

Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harker told CNBC, “I’d like to see us get to, say, above 3.4% – that was the last median in the SEP (Summary of Economic Projections) – and then maybe sit for a while.”

“But if the data says we need to keep increasing, we keep increasing. We’ve got to get inflation under control. That is Job One,” he added.

As for September meet, “whether it’s 50 or 75 I can’t say right now,” he said. But he noted that a 50bps hike is still a “substantial” one.

Intraday bias in USD/CHF remains neutral at this point. Outlook is unchanged that triangle correction from 1.0063 could have completed at 0.9369 already. Above 0.9691 will resume the rise from 0.9369 and target 0.9884 resistance next. Break there will argue that larger up trend is ready for resumption through 1.0063. On the downside, below 0.9551 minor support will dampen this view and turn bias back to the downside for 0.9369 support instead.

ठूलो तस्वीरमा, हालको विकासले सुझाव दिन्छ कि 0.8756 (2021 कम) बाट माथिको प्रवृत्ति अझै प्रगतिमा छ। 1.0063 को निरन्तर ब्रेकले 100 बाट 0.9149 मा 1.0063 देखि 0.9369 को 1.0283% प्रक्षेपण लक्ष्य गर्नेछ, र त्यसपछि 1.0342 (2016 उच्च)। अहिलेको लागि, यो मनपर्ने केस रहनेछ जबसम्म 0.9369 समर्थन राख्छ, गहिरो तानिएको अवस्थामा पनि।
