Declining overseas official U.S. bond holdings may indicate a change in market sentiment

⑴As of AugustIn the week of the 13th, the custodial holdings of foreign officials and international institutions in the Federal Reserve fell by 0.7% to $3.193 trillion. ⑵ Among them, the value of U.S. Treasury bonds held in custody fell by 0.8% to $2.856 trillion, while holdings of institutional bonds/mortgage-backed securities (MBS) rose slightly by 0.2% to $255.9 billion. ⑶ Holdings of other securities rose slightly by 0.1% to US$80.5 billion. ⑷ ehadb.cnpared with the same period last year, foreign official and international institutions held circulating U.S. Treasury bonds, while institutional bonds/MBS holdings plummeted by 17.2%. ⑸ These data show that overseas officials have weakened demand for US Treasury bonds, which may reflect changes in global capital flows and market sentiment.

Japan GDP boosted the yen strongly, and the US dollar against the yen technology position is facing a test

⑴ As Japan's GDP grew by 1.0% in the second quarter, far exceeding the expected 0.4%, the yen was boosted, causing the US dollar to fall against the yen. ⑵Affected by this, Japan's Treasury bond yield rose to a new August high, while the US dollar and the yen are currently trading in the lower half of the range of 147.86 to 146.76. ⑶ Technically, the US dollar against the yen was blocked on the 21st moving average, and the cloud chart became thinner, and the bearish tendency was slightly superior, but the bullish candlestick chart formed on Thursday slowed down its downward momentum to 146 key support areas. ⑷ The strengthening of the yen was also supported by foreign investors' buying of Japanese stocks for the seventh consecutive week. ⑸ Some analysts pointed out that the ehadb.cnments of US Treasury Department officials on the Bank of Japan's interest rate path and the impact of Trump's tariff remarks on trade growth will be the focus of market attention. ⑹If the US dollar can return above 148, its bearish tendency will be eliminated.

Multiple data are intertwined with the summit, and the US bond market is under pressure and fluctuation

⑴ On Friday, Beijing time, before the release of key data and the summit, the US Treasury market performed smoothly and the yield curve was slightly steep. ⑵ Thursday's strong July Producer Price Index (PPI) data extinguished market hopes for a sharp rate cut in September, impacting the U.S. bond market. ⑶Analysts believe that the impact of Trump's tariff remarks is emerging. In July, China's industrial output value increased by 5.7% year-on-year and retail sales increased by 3.7%, both lower than expected, showing its impact on Asian economies. ⑷ Despite the recent sharp jump in inflation in the PPI service industry, some analysts believe that the impact of tariffs may be lower than expected, as many ehadb.cnmodities enjoy duty-free treatment. ⑸ The market will closely monitor a series of data such as the upcoming July U.S. retail sales, import prices and New York State Manufacturing Index, in order to find new clues about the economic trend and the Fed's policy prospects. ⑹The yield on the US 10-year Treasury bond fluctuates in the range of 4.22% to 4.32%, and traders tend to steeper the range operation and betting curve.

Oasis concert unexpectedly pushes up inflation. The Bank of England may face new challenges.

⑴ Some analysts pointed out that the reunion tour of the British band Oasis may have an impact on the UK July inflation data released next week.to make its prediction more ehadb.cnplicated. ⑵ Although the UK's National Bureau of Statistics will not include concert ticket prices in the inflation basket, it may indirectly push up inflation as the concert drives hotel prices. ⑶Deutsche Bank's hotel price tracking data showed that hotel prices rose by nearly 9% month-on-month, among which Oasis's concert in Manchester had a significant impact on local hotel prices. ⑷Morgan Stanley is relatively cautious, with data showing that hotel prices have increased by 1.5% monthly, but hotel prices are expected to rise sharply in August due to the dual influence of art festivals and concerts. ⑸ Currently, Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley expect the UK Consumer Price Index (CPI) to rise year-on-year in July to 3.8% and 3.7% respectively, which are not good for the Bank of England.

Retail data is expected to indicate consumer resilience, and the Federal Reserve's September interest rate cut expectations have increased

⑴ On Friday, Beijing time, the market generally predicted that the monthly retail sales rate in July of the United States will increase by 0.5%, basically the same as the 0.6% increase in June. ⑵ The data shows that U.S. consumer spending remains strong despite economic concerns, thanks to summer promotions and early purchases made by consumers to avoid future price increases. ⑶ The US dollar index has fallen about 2.3% since August, falling below the 98.00 mark, reflecting the increased market confidence in the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut in September. ⑷ Core retail sales (excluding cars) are expected to grow by 0.3%, down from 0.5% in June, indicating a slowdown in consumption. ⑸ Analysts believe that if the July retail data is moderate as expected, it will provide support to the Federal Reserve, allowing it to relax monetary policy amid weakening labor market. ⑹While consumer spending remains resilient, there are signs that consumers are becoming more cautious amid concerns about price pressure caused by slowing job markets and tariffs.

Moldova's progress in accession to Europe surpasses Ukraine. The EU plans to open the gate in advance.

The EU is considering pushing the country's accession process forward a big step forward before Moldova holds parliamentary elections at the end of September, giving it a lead over Ukraine for the first time. Three diplomats and an EU official said European countries will vote to open the first "negotiation cluster" for Moldova after the EU ministers' meeting early next month - a key legal step on the way to join the EU, according to a program that EU officials are studying. The move will bring significant election support to Moldovan President Sandu, whose party has a pro-European stance as the core of her campaign. "We must find a way to start the first cluster," said EU Parliament Murraysan. "This will send a signal to Russia and weaken Russia's claim that there is no progress in the road to joining the alliance." However, this move may anger Ukraine. A Ukrainian diplomat said: "This is a danger of sending false signals to Ukrainians. As Alaska discusses future peace, we need to keep the prospect of EU membership as strong as possible."

Hot discussion data pushes up euro zone bond market yields, and the market is waiting for US consumers to perform

⑴ On Friday, Beijing time, the market continues in the marketEurozone bond yields generally rose as digested Thursday's strong U.S. inflation data. ⑵ German 10-year treasury yield rose 4 basis points to 2.7453%, while interest-sensitive treasury yield rose 1 basis point to 1.9506%. ⑶ The market generally believes that Thursday's top-expected U.S. producer price data sparked new inflation concerns and prompted traders to reduce their bets on the Fed's interest rate cut. ⑷This trend continued until Friday, but as the market was calm as the summer trading period was slow, European stocks rose slightly, and the euro rose against the weak dollar. ⑸ Italy's 10-year government bond yield rose by 5 basis points to 3.56%, causing the spread of 10-year government bonds between Italy and Germany to tighten to 70.2 basis points, the narrowest since 2011. ⑹The market is awaiting data such as U.S. retail sales, import prices and the University of Michigan Consumer Confidence Index released later today, which will provide clues to the status of U.S. consumers.
