📌 Dealer’s Notice
Three pivots form the tape:
-
US inflation & spending (CPI/PPI, Retail Gross sales) — a warmer CPI or agency retail may revive “higher-for-longer” bets and elevate USD/yields; softer prints favor period, gold, and high-beta FX.
-
China costs & credit score (CPI/PPI, New Loans) — weak inflation and tepid credit score bode for commodities demand; any upside shock helps metals/vitality sentiment.
-
UK/AU labor & BoE/RBA tone — cooler wages/jobs argue for endurance; hawkish surprises would chunk GBP/AUD shorts.
Speeches (Powell, Lagarde, Bailey, Waller, Macklem) can ship left-field volatility; preserve threat tight into headlines.
