MAJOR WORLD CURRENCIES:
As on 4th July,2022 :
USD:
The dollar was up on Tuesday morning in Asia, gaining support from a strong rebound in the U.S. 10-year Treasury yields.
EUR:
EUR/USD is aiming to violate 1.0440 as investors see eurozone PMI stable. The DXY is displaying a subdued performance as the focus has shifted to the Fed minutes. The ECB may announce its first interest rate hike after a span of 11 years.
The FX domain is waiting for the rate hike announcement from the ECB as it will be the first rate hike by the central bank in the past 11 years. Taking into consideration the plain-vanilla Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), which has climbed to 8.6%, a rate hike looks invincible. The households in Europe are facing real income shocks as soaring oil and food prices have reduced their paychecks. However, the continuation of an accommodative monetary policy may elevate the price rise further.

Recently, the British politicians are bracing for another attempt to oust the national leader by trying to alter the committee rules that previously defended Johnson.

GOLD :
Gold Price is making headway to the north this Tuesday while holding above the $1,800 mark, having started the week on the wrong footing. The renewed upside in the yellow metal could be attributed to a pause in the US dollar rebound.
Amidst the recent series of downbeat US economic data and signs of peak inflation, markets are re-pricing the Fed’s aggressive tightening outlook after the July meeting. This could be noted as the main factor behind the capped upside in the dollar across its main peers. The Fed minutes due on Wednesday will shed more light on the world’s most powerful central bank’s intent on inflation control, as President Powell acknowledged last week that recession is ‘a possibility’ but is not likely.
