The explicit push to fund AI as a primary research instrument, alongside the 2028 quantum computing deployment target and the 10-reactor nuclear buildout by 2030, points to where a meaningful share of a $200 billion annual budget could flow, potentially a tailwind for quantum computing and AI infrastructure names, as well as nuclear and small modular reactor plays. The flip side is a headwind for the university research funding ecosystem, since large institutions that rely heavily on federal gra

The People’s Bank of China is due to set the daily USD/CNY reference rate at around 0115 GMT (2115 US Eastern time), a fixing that remains one of the most closely watched signals in Asian foreign exchange markets. China operates a managed floating exchange rate system, under which the renminbi (yuan) is allowed to trade within a prescribed band around a central reference rate, or midpoint, set each trading day by the PBOC. The current trading band permits the currency to move plus or minus 2% fr

This marks the first time the administration has put a concrete timeline on tariffing generic drugs, a category that had been explicitly exempted from April's Section 232 pharmaceutical proclamation. The two-year runway gives generic manufacturers and importers time to adjust supply chains, but the eventual 100% and 200% rates signal the White House intends the tariff regime to eventually cover the entire pharmaceutical sector rather than carve generics out permanently.

The Houthi blockade threat strikes directly at the Red Sea route that has been absorbing Saudi crude diverted from the closed Strait of Hormuz, leaving Riyadh with a rapidly narrowing set of export options. Confirmed tanker reversals, rather than just verbal threats, mark a shift from risk pricing to actual physical disruption, which markets are likely to treat as a stronger signal than rhetoric alone.

The breakout above 162.84 has drawn in a mix of model-driven and hedging-related flows, with stop-loss buying and topside option demand reinforcing the move once resistance gave way. Subdued implied volatility suggests the options market isn't yet pricing an aggressive extension of the trend, even as spot pushes to fresh highs. A 55-pip breakeven pointing to resistance near 163.50 gives bulls a clear near-term target, while 162.84 and the day's low of 162.44 offer the first support levels on any

ING's scenario analysis frames a hawkish-leaning hold as the base case, with EUR/USD seen holding around 1.140 and 10-year Bund yields near 3.15% under that outcome. A more dovish tilt would likely pull EUR/USD back toward 1.130 and Bund yields toward 3.05%, while a surprise 25bp hike could push EUR/USD to 1.150 and Bund yields to 3.20%. ING said rates continue to take their cue from oil, with a September hike already close to fully priced in barring an easing in crude prices. On FX, the bank se

The rally reflects the market pricing in a higher chance of sustained logistical disruption rather than confirmed lost barrels, with traders watching Saudi export routes to Asia and Red Sea transit closely for further deterioration. Brent's extended run in overbought territory suggests positioning has become stretched, raising the risk of a sharp reversal if de-escalation talk gains traction. The tanker reversals and blockade threat point to rising freight and insurance costs alongside any physi

The spread between Goldman's base case and its upside scenario underscores how sensitive crude markets remain to Gulf shipping risk. A sustained Hormuz disruption would tighten physical supply sharply, given the strait's role in global flows, while thin inventories leave little buffer to absorb a shock. Traders are likely to keep pricing in a geopolitical premium as long as ceasefire talks remain unresolved, with diesel tightness and Red Sea threats adding further upside pressure. Conversely, an

The AUDUSD moved lower into the start of trading today, but once again found willing buyers against its rising 100-hour moving average. That is an important development because the pair also attracted buyers at that same technical level during yesterday's Asia-Pacific session. In other words, the last two tests of the 100-hour moving average have been defended by buyers, reinforcing its importance as a key short-term support level. The rebound from today's low extended from 0.6991 to 0.7026, ca
