I won’t take any “risk on” positions such as buying Eu until the shooting starts from Iran.  After the initial selling off and the US/Britain start firing back then ok.  Until then it will be trailing sell stop orders in EurUsd, EurJpy, and UsdChf and perhaps EurChf.

If the Islamic terrorists that Msnbc are so proud of actually do enough damage the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group will end that 3,000 year war in a week.

Markets treated PPI like it was CPI.

A soft PPI does not necessarily translate into a similar CPI reading.

With that said, it would take a hotter CPI to shake markets but even then it would not alter a widely expected Fed rate cut.

Fed’s Bostic Says
More Data Needed, Rate Cut Likely by Year-End
Rate Cuts Are ‘Coming’—But He Needs More Data to Be Sure
a ‘little more data’ needed to support cutting rates

my translation of Bostic’s ‘says’:
*don’t get too hot under the collar you sons and daughters of mothers without a known father

No change… USD upside limited ahead of CPI… so if it can’t go up, then risk is down… risk on mood otherwise

AI PCs accounted for 14% of all personal computers shipped in the second quarter with Apple leading the way – Reuters.

Here is a simple window into how far AI has to go until it can rival the human mind in trading.  The section “Popular In Your Area” in a particular and massively visited site has the headlines “Ukrainian Forces Describe Rapid Offensive,” and “This Financial Firm’s Stock Dropped 50% Monday and Here is Why.”

I don’t live in Ukraine and I’m pretty sure that financial firm has offices on multiple continents, not just “near you.”

Its coming along though.  Just a tool Quants are developing for now.  Another 3 years or so.

US 10 year 3.86%

Seeing some correlation with USDJPY (weaker)

EURUSD holding 1.0950

[SF Monedge]

This relative area should be the ceiling for the day in normal conditions for Eu.

EURUSD 4 HOUR CHART – IS 1.10 BACK ON THE RADAR?

Needs to hold above 1.0945 (suggests 1.0945-50) to keep a bid that puts 1.10 back on the radar.

In any case, look for support on dips ahead of Wed’s US CPI but a stronger bid  if it can stay above 1.0945-50. .

[SF Monedge]

Good move in Eu.  Not enough to change the overall sell bias yet around 0950 in my view.  Other data pending and geopolitical tension not in support of a full on risk on environment.  Could overshoot on bids but not likely by much.

EURUSD 4h

This is where it goes – Up there…see the downtrend line…around 1.10

We see what happens there and we reassess again.

By limit all I can say is USD shouldn’t race away ahead of CPI…

Jay 12:44 – what is the limit to dlr’s downside

zero ?

[Mtl JP]

post PPI
US 10-YR 3.879% -0.03

[GVI Forex 2]

PPIP reactions have so far been limited but at a minimum, there should be a limit on the USD upside ahead of CPI barring some geopolitical event.

[GVI Forex 2]

US PPI softer than forecasts…

Yields down…dollar down…stocks up

I remember whebn PPI was largely ignored… not the case nowadays

if I only had a roc …

08:30 – PPI (ahead of Wednesday’s CPI)
– Expectation : +0.2% plus a few other metrics
– Players are want oh so badly to see data to be increasing FED’s “confidence” about inflation rate’s trajectory
– ATM players are pricing a sept cut but 50%-er is currently an outlier.
– Pretty well all market components appear discombobulated: DLRx up tiny bit, bonds narrow ditto stocks
–
VIX 20.50 screams volatility, tension, anxiety (all good things in my optique)

DLRx 102.95 looks softish atm
Sup 102.90; Res 103.50

13:15 – bostic yaks – on economy

A look at the day ahead in U.S. and global markets from Mike Dolan

Much like Wall Street’s rapid healing on Friday, Japanese stocks completed their week-long, hair-raising round trip on Tuesday as Tokyo markets returned from holiday, wiped out the remainder of last week’s losses and nudged the yen lower.

Morning Bid: Market lull as PPI eyed, Nikkei returns to base
