Tokyo Core CPI eases to 2.5%, yen steady
Tokyo Core CPI eased to 2.5% in July, down sharpy from 2.9% in June. The BoJ remains on track for a rate hike in the the fourth quarter, likely in October or December. Japan's retail sales and industrial production both declined and missed expectations, pointing to a weak economy.

EUR/USD Technical: Euro on the brink of a medium-term bullish breakout
EUR/USD is on the brink of a medium-term bullish breakout after a 1.6% rally to 1.1730 in mid-August. Price action has reclaimed the 20- and 50-day moving averages, while momentum remains supported above trendline levels. A bullish bias holds above 1.1650, with potential targets at 1.1770/1790 and 1.1830. Meanwhile, narrowing US–German 2Y yield spreads continue to weigh on the dollar, reinforcing euro strength.

USD/JPY Technical: Eyeing the ascending range support of 145.50
USD/JPY has extended its slide from the late-July peak of 150.92, falling -2.6% to 147.00. Fresh Tokyo core-core inflation data and stronger consumer confidence reinforced expectations for a potential 25bps BoJ rate hike in October, keeping pressure on the pair. With USD/JPY trading below its 20-day average and testing the 50-day, focus now shifts to US core PCE data later today, a key driver of Fed rate cut bets ahead of September’s FOMC.

Sterling Outlook Softens amid Sticky Inflation, Slowing Growth and Fiscal Strains
GBP outlook has turned bearish: Sticky inflation, slowing growth, and tight fiscal prospects tilt risks to the downside despite earlier stability versus G10. BoE likely to cut once more, then pause: After a split August 25 bp cut, a single 25 bp cut in November is plausible, with futures sceptical about further easing. Inflation is persistent and services-led: Core ~3.8% y/y; services ~5% y/y; broad pricing pressure and elevated expectations keep disinflation progress limited.

USDJPY rallies into its range amid a US Dollar rebound – Will the range break?
USD/JPY has been stuck in a narrow two-week range as traders weigh conflicting US data and Powell’s more balanced Jackson Hole tone.

Australian inflation surges, Aussie dips
Australia posted higher-than-expected inflation in July, as CPI and core CPI climbed sharply. This has lowered expectations for an RBA rate cut in September. In the US, President Trump said he had removed Fed Governor Lisa Cook, but it's unclear if he has the authority to do so.
