<\/a>Economic<\/b><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>\u00a0news<\/b><\/a><\/a><\/a>:\u00a0<\/a><\/a><\/a>Markets have calmed as panic about US recession seems to have faded slightly and comments by Fed members have also helped in calming the market. However, there is still nervousness and it could be only allayed by a steep decline in US CPI. US CPI, PPI and retail sales are important data events for next week. While CPI is expected to remain in declining mode, any opposite data set could lead to heavy sell off again. Investors see a real risk that the Fed\u2019s delay in cutting rates has made a downturn inevitable. Sticky inflation is the main reason why the Fed has stayed this cautious.<\/b><\/p>\r\n

Fed\u2019s Boston member<\/b>\u00a0<\/b>noted that she anticipates interest rates to be lower in the coming years, although she refrained from providing specific details on the timing and pace of rate cuts.She highlighted the importance of incoming data before Fed\u2019s September meeting, stating, \u201cWe\u2019ll have more data before our September meeting, and I don\u2019t want to get out ahead of that.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\r\n

Yen rally is currently taking a breather after the impressive gains over the past month. Incoming GDP data will guide the future movement.<\/b><\/b><\/p>\r\n
