The only CB not to succumb to a rate hike was the Bank of Japan, which said it would keep monetary policy loose. With a significant drop in oil prices, the economy could be freed from higher inflationary pressures in the future and the Fed would take the credit for it. If the Fed sees any data which highlights inflation expectations are growing, another 75bps rate hike in July is likely. We heard from some Fed members today. Fed\u2019s George said that she was not in favour of the recent 75bps hike, whereas Fed\u2019s Kashkari said he supported the recent policy action and could support another in July.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ff063fb elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ff063fb\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e24893d\" data-id=\"e24893d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c22264 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3c22264\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3NNE33F\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"931\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/rsz_brent-35.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-30526\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6a47a48b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6a47a48b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4d3dba8e\" data-id=\"4d3dba8e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25eb2dfa elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"25eb2dfa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3NNE33F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See real-time quotes<\/a> provided by our partner.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5fff51b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5fff51b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3ac1a9c\" data-id=\"3ac1a9c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-802d33c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"802d33c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>This week&#8217;s price action is the first consecutive weekly decline in oil since early May and in the big picture, it is a small correction within a larger sideways range between $100 and $120 per barrel. There is still a long way to go before we can get bearish on the <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3NNE33F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brent <\/a>contract. The COT report shows that the Commercials who are traditionally hedging the physical product have added to their shorts but on the disaggregated report they are still not fully hedged short. When they get below the signal line, I would expect the selling pressure to be too much for the speculative longs to absorb.<\/p><p>The International Energy Agency (IEA) warned this week that soaring oil prices and weakening economic prospects dimmed the outlook for future demand. With Russia finding ways to sell their oil to India and China at a discount, that leaves more oil producers able to sell to the countries applying sanctions on Russia. This may help the supply side; it just takes a while to re-direct the flows. The CEO of Sberbank said that an infrastructure network for sending exports to the East is a priority for Russia. There is also news that Russia intends to increase oil exports in 2022 and that new gas pipeline routes should be open soon.<\/p><p>We also heard from Russian President Putin, who said that Russia was not threatening anyone with nuclear weapons and that Ukraine joining the European Union is the business of &#8220;Ukrainians and the Ukrainian authorities&#8221;.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-38190cf elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"38190cf\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-00931ae\" data-id=\"00931ae\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57cb54d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"57cb54d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2OJjKKR\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"931\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/rsz_usdjpy-18.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-30530\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-223a8009 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"223a8009\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2de0daea\" data-id=\"2de0daea\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c9d739 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3c9d739\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2OJjKKR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See real-time quotes<\/a> provided by our partner.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6cd2dbc elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6cd2dbc\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e1cc83b\" data-id=\"e1cc83b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4ce8ef elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f4ce8ef\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2OJjKKR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USDJPY<\/a> had a strong up day today but has not quite breached the swing high.
