Goldman Sachs

Goldman Sachs: the dollar will experience a wave of gains before economic growth improves in Europe and Asia. GDP and U.S. stocks expected to suffer short-term impact as U.S. government may shut down after September.

[Societe Generale: EURUSD rally may come to an abrupt end if August PMI preliminary value disappoints]

August 22 -- The euro rallied above 1.09 against the U.S. dollar for a while, but the pair's uptrend could be halted if the preliminary August PMI disappoint, Societe Generale said. Meanwhile, the euro returned to the lower end of its range against the pound. News of a lower-than-expected UK budget shortfall inevitably reignited speculation that tax cuts to support economic growth will be introduced in this fall's or next spring's budget ahead of the 2024 general election.

BOJ Buys Bonds at Record Pace, Increasing Need to Tweak Yield Curve Control Policies.

August 21-- The Bank of Japan's purchases of Treasuries at a record pace this year may be one factor that has prompted the bank to allow yields to fluctuate in a wider range recently, easing pressure on it to rein in long-term interest rates. The size of the BOJ's bond purchases has still not been significantly reduced after it widened the yield curve control band last December and last month, and the increased bond purchases after each policy adjustment have raised questions about whether the central bank is moving too slowly in adjusting its policy, and that it would have to take big steps to stop investors from pushing yields too high. Naomi Muguruma, chief fixed-income strategist at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, said that if the BOJ reduces its bond purchases, market participants will see it as a signal that it is close to exiting easing, pushing yields higher and forcing it to increase its purchases.
