Those were ultimately far more than exercises and the start of the Ukraine war.<\/p><p>Despite the recovering in broader market sentiment there is still a chance that risk-on trade may not be fully on the table as we seeing Chinese military Tweeting some aggressive comments.<\/p><p>The Tweet from the Chinese military read \u201cThis is not just a demonstration, but<strong>\u00a0an actual exercise to liberate Taiwan<\/strong>. Pelosi&#8217;s visit is bound to speed up China&#8217;s unification.&#8221;<\/p><p>Aside from the Taiwan news the US session also saw some Feds speak ahead of Friday\u2019s non-farm payrolls job report, which is likely to be a big market mover.<\/p><p>The Chicago Fed member Evans said that \u201c50 basis points is reasonable, 75 bps is ok, I doubt 100 bps is called for\u201d.

And \u201cI think unemployment will stay below 4% this year.\u201d<\/p><p>In terms of the moves in the US dollar we are seeing a bout of weakness in the majors against the greenback after recent stellar price gains in the <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2YAQOVh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">euro<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2Zn4HaM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sterling<\/a>.<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2ZsFzPL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gold<\/a> is largely holding its own today, although minor red can be seen in the precious metals space. <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3yhqraH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Copper<\/a> prices naturally do not like the news about Taiwan.<\/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\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Investors are breathing easier during the US session Nancy Pelosi`s visit to Taiwan did not end in bloodshed.
