Oil Prices Fall From $100 After Report of Possible Renewed Talks Between U.S. and Iran Oil prices fell back below $100 a barrel on Friday from their highest level since early May, but continued tensions between the U.S. and Iran promise that the energy markets will remain elevated. \---- U.S. Stocks Mixed to End Week U.S. stock indexes were mixed, with the Dow industrials slightly higher and Nasdaq slightly lower. \---- Trump Threatens New Tariffs on EU Over Tech Fines The 27-nation bloc this week fined Google $1 billion for violating digital competition rules. \---- Global Economy Picked Up Before Fresh Energy Hit Business activity in the U.S., Europe and parts of Asia picked up in July, indicating that the global economy was growing at a modest pace before the fresh surge in energy prices. \---- Canada Producer Prices Decline in June After Short-Lived U.S.-Iran Pact Canadian producer prices declined in June, marking the first month-over-month drop in five months, after a tentative accord between the U.S. and Iran led to lower energy prices. \---- Global Goods Trade Rose Again In May, But New Tariffs Loom World trade flows rose for a second month in May, a sign of economic resilience that may be challenged by a fresh wave of U.S. tariff hikes. \---- German Consumer Sentiment Weighed by War Uncertainty Confidence weakened a little after oil prices rose, and with the conflict in the Middle East continuing to escalate, households' wariness about spending could harden in the months ahead. \---- Week Ahead for FX, Bonds: Fed Decision Awaited; Middle East Events Eyed A decision by the U.S. Federal Reserve will mark the focus of the coming week, where interest rates are expected to be left on hold but investors will watch for signals on when rates could rise given the recent surge in energy prices. \---- U.K. Consumer Confidence Jumps on 'Burnham Bounce,' But Risks Loom The rise in sentiment was driven largely by perceptions of the economy, with a jump in how consumers view the past year as well as the next 12 months. \---- Eurozone Businesses See Wages Cooling Despite Inflation Pickup, Says ECB The survey results suggest that inflationary pressures haven't broadened significantly beyond the immediate impact of higher energy prices. \---- Russia Cuts Key Rate Despite Inflation Pickup Russia's central bank cut its key interest rate for a tenth straight meeting, despite raising its forecast for inflation to reflect Ukraine's drone attacks on Russian oil refineries. \---- Japan Consumer Inflation Picks Up, Keeping Rate Increases on Track Consumer prices are likely to continue facing mixed cues, including the Middle East conflict and a weak yen. \---- The Houthis Have Opened a New Front in the U.S.-Iran War The Yemeni militants have set up a standoff in one of the world's most vital waterways with its threats against Red Sea oil shipments. \---- South Korea Fast-Tracks New Rule for Leveraged ETFs to Curb Market Swings The country's Financial Services Commission said it will bring forward the introduction of the cash deposit rule to the end of July from August.
