JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon expressed doubts about inflation returning to the Fed's 2% target due to deficit spending and global re-militarization. In a CNBC interview, Dimon mentioned that while the Fed might soon cut rates, the economic impact may be less significant than others expect. Dimon has long warned that inflation could be more persistent than anticipated and stated that JPMorgan is prepared for rate fluctuations between 2% and 8% or higher. He also highlighted multiple inflation pressures despite recent declines and plans to continue leading JPMorgan in the coming years.

Quant funds chasing Wall Street's hot trades are taking heavy hits as their momentum bets fail simultaneously. Heading into July, these trend followers bet on rising stocks, shorting developed market government bonds, and expecting further yen weakening. However, sudden market reversals have led to deep losses. Andrew Beer of Dynamic Beta Investments notes this is a typical cross-asset reversal, with most funds losing half to three-quarters of their year-to-date gains in recent weeks. The swift market reversals expose the inherent risks of such strategies and amplify market volatility as investors unwind crowded trades.
Analysis:
Impact on FX: Increased market volatility could strengthen safe-haven currencies like the USD.
FX Pair: USD/JPY, EUR/USD
Impact on Shares:
US Market: Negative impact on hedge funds and quant funds.

This adjustment aligns with Goldman Sachs' forecast, which estimates a 25% chance of a US recession within the next year.

Cathie Wood capitalized on the market downturn to buy tech stocks through her flagship ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), purchasing shares of Amazon, AMD, and Roku. Despite the global market slump triggered by weak US employment data and recession fears, tech stocks suffered heavily. Wood's ARKK fund has continued to decline, down over 20% this year. Although ARKK soared 150% in 2020 due to tech stock surges, its recent performance has been poor, eroding investor confidence and leading to $2.2 billion in outflows this year.
Analysis:
Impact on FX: Increased investment in tech stocks could stabilize the USD.

US Market: Potential mixed impact on tech sector stocks.

Despite borrowing costs at a 17-year high, the Philippines' Q2 GDP growth accelerated, with a year-on-year increase of 6.3%, matching Bloomberg's median forecast. This follows a revised Q1 growth rate of 5.8%. Strong economic performance might lead the Philippine central bank to reconsider a potential rate cut next week. Central bank governor Eli Remolona indicated that easing monetary policy on August 15 is now less likely after rising inflation. The latest GDP data keeps the government on track to meet its 6%-7% growth target for the year. Household consumption signals enhanced private consumption, driven by higher real incomes and increased overseas remittances.

New York's rental market is intensely competitive, with renters facing long lines and bidding wars. Landlords capitalize on high demand to raise rents, especially during the traditional summer leasing season. Some brokers attract large numbers of potential tenants with low prices, creating bidding atmospheres to secure higher rents. Despite a 2019 law capping application fees, landlords now have more choices to screen high-income, high-credit tenants. The tight rental market is exacerbated by high mortgage rates reducing homebuying demand, further straining the rental market. Some renters are forced to accept less favorable conditions to secure housing in this competitive environment.
Analysis:
Impact on FX: Housing market strains could stabilize the USD.
FX Pair: USD/JPY, EUR/USD
Impact on Shares:
US Market: Mixed impact on real estate sector stocks.
Companies: Local real estate firms
