Hot spot tracking
- The Fed kept interest rates unchanged and revised its statement to reflect recent calls for rate cuts, but retained the wording that "rate cuts will not be made until there is greater confidence in inflation." Powell said that the meeting had an in-depth discussion on rate cuts, and that rate cuts could be made as early as September if data meets the requirements. Keeping interest rates unchanged is good for the dollar in the short term, while the expectation of a rate cut in September is bad for the dollar in the medium and long term.
- The U.S. ADP employment increased by 122,000 in July, lower than the expected 150,000 and the smallest increase since January 2024. The decline in employment is bearish for the U.S. economy and the dollar.
- The Bank of Japan unexpectedly raised interest rates by 15 basis points to 0.25% while reducing its bond purchases. Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda pointed out that the weak yen was one of several factors that influenced the Bank of Japan's decision and also opened the door to tightening policy. Japan's interest rate hike is bullish for the yen.
