EVENTS

The employment situation in the USA remains complicated, as the unemployment rate stayed above 4% in March, currently standing at 4.3%.

• TUESDAY, MAY 12 AT 13:30 GMT+1: U.S. INFLATION (CPI) (APRIL). With the ongoing Iran war, investors remain cautious as higher energy prices could push inflation higher. However, Fed Chair Jerome Powell stated recently that inflation expectations remain well anchored despite rising energy prices, reviving expectations of monetary easing. The US headline inflation rate in March came in at 3.3%.
• THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, MAY 14 AND MAY 15: U.S. PRESIDENT TRUMP AND CHINA PRESIDENT XI SUMMIT IN CHINA.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:

• SUPPORT AREA: 7,200-7,000. After rising by around 11% following U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of a ceasefire in the Middle East, the USA500 has reached new all-time highs above the 7,300 level. However, there remains a risk of a potential break below this range if market conditions change.
