RBFX Support Posted August 7 Author Posted August 7 (edited) JP 225 forecast: the index set to reach a new all-time high The JP 225 stock index has completed its correction and resumed upward movement. The JP 225 forecast for today is positive. JP 225 forecast: key trading points Recent data: Japan’s current account for June stood at 3.436 trillion JPY Market impact: this indicates a healthy economic structure and currency balance support, which generally boosts investor confidence Fundamental analysis Japan’s latest current account data showed a surplus of 3.436 trillion JPY, well above the forecast of 2.940 trillion JPY and the previous figure of 2.258 trillion JPY. The growth in the current account indicates that Japan exports significantly more goods and services than it imports, or receives substantial income from overseas investments. The JP 225 index, which includes the largest and most liquid stocks on the Japanese market, typically reacts positively to improving macroeconomic indicators. A growing current account reflects external stability, which increases investor risk appetite and supports stock growth, especially in stable and fast-growing sectors of the economy.

RBFX Support Posted August 8 Author Posted August 8 (edited) USDJPY remains in a narrow range for five consecutive sessions The USDJPY rate remains in a narrow range amid disagreements within the BoJ over the timing of future rate hikes. The current quote is 147.33. Find out more in our analysis for 8 August 2025. USDJPY forecast: key trading points BoJ members are split over the timing and pace of future rate hikes BoJ raised its inflation outlook and improved its economic forecast Growth in household spending in Japan slowed sharply in June USDJPY forecast for 8 August 2025: 150.50 Fundamental analysis Today, the USDJPY rate is rising slightly, while remaining within the range that has held for five consecutive trading sessions. Buyers continue to defend the key 146.65 support level. The US dollar is strengthening after the release of the BoJ’s July meeting minutes, which revealed that board members are divided on the timing and pace of future rate hikes. The central bank kept its interest rate at 0.5%, raised its inflation forecast, and presented a more optimistic assessment of the economic outlook. Some BoJ officials warned of rising inflationary pressures and supported a gradual rate hike to avoid abrupt tightening. Others argued for maintaining the current accommodative stance, citing significant uncertainty over whether economic forecasts will materialise. RoboForex Market Analysis & Forex Forecasts Attention!

RBFX Support Posted August 11 Author Posted August 11 (edited) DE 40 forecast: the index has formed a downtrend, but it is likely to be short-term The DE 40 stock index continues to correct after an uptrend. The DE 40 forecast for today is negative. DE 40 forecast: key trading points Recent data: Germany’s balance of trade for June 2025 totalled 14.9 billion EUR Market impact: a decline in the trade balance compared to forecasts and previous figures signals a slowdown in export activity, which will negatively affect the shares of exporting companies Fundamental analysis Germany’s trade balance for June 2025 came in at 14.9 billion EUR, below the forecast of 17.8 billion EUR and the previous reading of 18.6 billion EUR. The trade balance is the difference between a country’s exports and imports over a certain period. A positive figure indicates that Germany exported more goods than it imported. A drop in the trade balance compared to both the forecast and the previous figures signals a slowdown in export activity. This may indicate weak external demand for German goods, which is a negative factor for the German economy and its large export-oriented companies. The DE 40 index, which consists of the largest German companies, will come under pressure due to the worsening trade balance. Since most of the index companies operate in export-driven industries such as automotive, engineering, and chemical, a decline in exports will hurt their financial performance and negatively affect their share prices.

RBFX Support Posted August 12 Author Posted August 12 (edited) US 500 forecast: quotes approach resistance, but the downtrend continues The US 500 index remains in a downtrend, which is unlikely to be long-term. The US 500 forecast for today is negative. US 500 forecast: key trading points Recent data: the US ISM non-manufacturing PMI came in at 50.1 in July Market impact: for the US stock market, such data has a mixed effect Fundamental analysis The ISM non-manufacturing PMI is a key indicator of the service sector, which accounts for more than 70% of US GDP. The July 2025 reading of 50.1 shows that the economy in the service segment continues to grow, but very weakly, and is almost on the verge of stagnation. The figure came in below the forecast of 51.5 and barely changed from the previous 50.8, indicating a lack of strong growth drivers and possibly declining business confidence in the industry. For the US stock market, such data has a mixed impact. On one hand, weak service sector figures cool expectations for corporate earnings growth in consumer-facing industries and raise concerns about the sustainability of domestic demand. This could put negative pressure on the broad US 500 index, especially in cyclical sectors that depend on economic activity. RoboForex Market Analysis & Forex Forecasts Attention!

RBFX Support Posted August 13 Author Posted August 13 (edited) USDJPY falls below 148.00 The USDJPY pair is declining, moving below 148.00 following the release of US inflation data. Find more details in our analysis for 13 August 2025. USDJPY forecast: key trading points Market focus: the July US Consumer Price Index (CPI) came in line with forecasts Current trend: moving downwards USDJPY forecast for 13 August 2025: 148.50 or 147.00 Fundamental analysis The Japanese yen strengthened after the release of US consumer inflation data, which matched forecasts, rising by 0.2% month-on-month and 2.7% year-on-year. This boosted market expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut next month. In Japan, business sentiment improved for the second consecutive month in August following a trade deal with Washington. The agreement reduced US tariffs on cars and other goods to 15% in exchange for a Japanese investment package worth 550 billion USD. Bank of Japan board members remain divided over the timing and pace of future rate hikes. While some policymakers favour maintaining the current accommodative policy for now, they also pointed to uncertainty over whether current economic forecasts will materialise.

RBFX Support Posted August 14 Author Posted August 14 (edited) JP 225 forecast: the index has formed an upward channel and targets a new all-time high The JP 225 stock index hit a new all-time high and continued its upward trajectory. The JP 225 forecast for today is positive. JP 225 forecast: key trading points Recent data: Japan’s current account for July totalled 1.348 trillion JPY Market impact: overall reaction for the broad equity market is neutral to restrained Fundamental analysis While the current account remains in surplus, it is significantly lower than both the consensus and the previous reading. The decline signals less favourable external conditions and higher import costs, which may limit corporate profit margins. At the same time, a likely soft yen partially offsets the effect by supporting exporters. As a result, the balance of factors for the index is mixed: there may be heightened sensitivity to news about global demand and energy prices. For the JP 225, this means a mixed backdrop: export-oriented industries benefit from a weaker yen in the short term, while energy-intensive and import-dependent segments face shrinking margins. The index’s further trajectory will depend on global trade trends, energy price dynamics, yen movements, and the Bank of Japan’s assessment of the balance between policy normalisation and support for economic growth.

RBFX Support Posted August 18 Author Posted August 18 (edited) Trump pressures, inflation rises: how Powell will determine the fate of EURUSD The euro continues to strengthen ahead of the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision, with the EURUSD rate likely to climb further to 1.1800. Find more details in our analysis for 18 August 2025. EURUSD forecast: key trading points The euro continues to strengthen Financial markets await the Jackson Hole Symposium EURUSD forecast for 18 August 2025: 1.1800 Fundamental analysis The euro is holding steady around 1.1700 as markets remain wary of geopolitical developments. The upcoming Jackson Hole Symposium is expected to feature a speech by Jerome Powell, which could shed light on the Federal Reserve’s future actions. Powell is caught between calls for rate cuts (particularly from Trump) and the risks of rising inflation. His ability to maintain the Fed’s independence by relying on data rather than political pressure is crucial. Following strong US fundamentals (growth in wholesale prices and retail sales), markets adjusted expectations for a significant September rate cut. This has provided the euro with additional stability against the dollar, fuelling further EURUSD gains. RoboForex Market Analysis & Forex Forecasts Attention!

RBFX Support Posted August 19 Author Posted August 19 (edited) US 500 forecast: prices approached resistance but failed to break through and reach a new all-time high The US 500 remains in an uptrend, which is highly likely to become medium-term. The US 500 forecast for today is positive. US 500 forecast: key trading points Recent data: the US Producer Price Index (PPI) came in at 0.9% in July Market impact: rising producer costs have a negative effect on the US stock market Fundamental analysis The US PPI for July rose by 0.9% from the previous month, well above the forecast of 0.2% and the previous reading of 0.0%. PPI growth is a significant signal, as it reflects higher producer costs, which may be passed on to the end consumer. Overall, this strengthens inflationary pressure and increases the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will adopt a more hawkish stance in monetary policy. Higher financing rates, in turn, can negatively affect the equity market by making stocks less attractive than bonds and increasing borrowing costs for businesses. For the US 500 index, the effect of such data is likely to be restrictive. Stronger inflation expectations could trigger a correction in the index, particularly in rate-sensitive sectors.

Demand for safe-haven assets has weakened significantly. Find more details are in our analysis for 20 August 2025. XAUUSD forecast: key trading points Gold (XAUUSD) is edging down, preparing to reach a new three-week low Easing geopolitical tensions and a surging USD have drawn part of market interest away from gold XAUUSD forecast for 20 August 2025: 3,311 and 3,265 Fundamental analysis On Wednesday, gold (XAUUSD) prices fell to 3,317 USD per troy ounce, nearing their three-week low. Pressure on the metal came from expectations of easing geopolitical tensions and a stronger US dollar. Earlier, US President Donald Trump stated that he does not plan to send ground troops but admitted the possibility of air support as part of efforts to resolve the conflict with Russia. Investors now focus on the upcoming speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell at Jackson Hole. Additional market cues may also come from the FOMC minutes due later on Wednesday. Rate futures indicate the likelihood of two Fed rate cuts of 25 basis points each by the end of the year, with the first possibly coming in September.

RBFX Support Posted August 21 Author Posted August 21 (edited) JP 225 forecast: index continues to rise within an ascending channel, correcting after reaching a new all-time high The JP 225 stock index hit a new all-time high and started a correction. Today’s JP 225 forecast is negative. JP 225 forecast: key trading points Recent data: Japan’s Q2 2025 GDP grew by 0.3% Market impact: this is a positive signal for the stock market, as growth exceeded expectations Fundamental analysis Data shown on the chart indicates that Japan’s quarterly GDP growth was 0.3%, above the forecast of 0.1% and the previous figure of 0.1%. Stronger-than-expected GDP growth signals more resilient economic activity in the country. This suggests increased domestic demand, exports, or investments, which creates a positive backdrop for corporate profits and, consequently, the stock market. Stronger macroeconomic data may also reduce recession concerns, reinforcing investor confidence. For the JP225 index, this positive GDP surprise could contribute to further price growth. The strengthening of sustainable economic growth expectations increases the likelihood of stock market gains. However, investors may also consider potential risks of Bank of Japan’s monetary tightening if the positive momentum proves persistent. RoboForex Market Analysis & Forex Forecasts Attention!

RBFX Support Posted August 22 Author Posted August 22 (edited) US Tech forecast: the index continues to rise, but correction risks grow The uptrend in the US Tech stock index has shifted into a downward correction. The US Tech forecast for next week is negative. US Tech forecast: key trading points Recent data: the US manufacturing PMI preliminarily came in at 53.3 in August Market impact: this data strengthens expectations for overall economic momentum, which may be viewed positively by equity investors Fundamental analysis The US manufacturing PMI reached 53.3 points in August 2025, significantly above the forecast of 49.7 and the previous reading of 49.8. A PMI reading above 50 indicates an expansion in manufacturing activity. This result signals that the industrial sector is in a growth phase with increasing demand for goods. Although PMI directly relates to industrial production, its positive reading indirectly impacts the high-tech sector. Rising manufacturing activity requires more automation, digitalisation of processes, and the use of advanced technologies. This boosts demand for semiconductor products, cloud services, software, and industrial robotics. As a result, the tech-heavy index may find additional support.

Find out more in our analysis for 25 August 2025. EURUSD forecast: key trading points The EURUSD pair accelerated its rally after Powell’s Jackson Hole speech Markets now expect Fed monetary easing with more enthusiasm than before EURUSD forecast for 25 August 2025: 1.1800 Fundamental analysis At the start of the last week of August, the US dollar came under pressure, while the euro strengthened. The EURUSD pair climbed to 1.1728, marking its highest level since late July. Following Jerome Powell’s speech at the Jackson Hole Symposium, markets sharply revised their Fed rate expectations. The probability of a September cut now stands at 85%, compared with significantly lower odds earlier. By the end of the year, investors are pricing in 54 basis points of easing, up from 48 basis points a week ago. Investors remain focused on the labour market, which, according to Powell, is showing an unusual balance, with both demand for and supply of workers slowing. Employment will serve as the key indicator for future Fed decisions. RoboForex Market Analysis & Forex Forecasts Attention!

The US 500 forecast for today is positive. US 500 forecast: key trading points Recent data: US initial jobless claims came in at 235 thousand last week Market impact: this has a dual effect on the US stock market Fundamental analysis US initial jobless claims stood at 235 thousand last week, above the forecast of 226 thousand and the previous reading of 224 thousand. The rise in claims indicates some weakening of the labour market. Higher applications may signal a slowdown in economic activity. Signs of labour market cooling can ease pressure on the Federal Reserve to tighten monetary policy further, supporting expectations of stable or even lower interest rates. For the US 500, this data may trigger a mixed reaction in the short term. The technology and growth sectors may benefit, as they gain from prospects of looser monetary policy, while consumer-focused sectors may come under pressure due to expectations of weaker purchasing power.

GBPUSD forecast: key trading points The GBPUSD pair corrected after its rally in early August as doubts over US monetary policy resurfaced The market is watching the foundations for potential BoE rate decisions GBPUSD forecast for 27 August 2025: 1.3432 Fundamental analysis On Wednesday, the GBPUSD rate fell to 1.3461. Pressure on US short-term yields and threats to Fed independence created a negative backdrop for the US dollar, supporting the outlook for its weakening over the coming year. The decisive risk factor will be who Donald Trump nominates to replace the vacant Fed Governor seat, which will determine the extent of political influence over monetary policy. Investors are also closely watching developments in France, where the minority government faces a possible dismissal next month. RoboForex Market Analysis & Forex Forecasts Attention!

RBFX Support Posted Thursday at 12:20 PM Author Posted Thursday at 12:20 PM (edited) JP 225 forecast: the uptrend continues, but a short-term correction is possible The JP 225 index hit a new all-time high and then entered a correction. The JP 225 forecast for today is negative. JP 225 forecast: key trading points Recent data: Japan’s core inflation rate for July rose by 3.1% year-on-year Market impact: market reaction may range from neutral to moderately negative Fundamental analysis Japan’s national core CPI came in at 3.1% year-on-year, compared to a forecast of 3.0% and the previous reading of 3.3%. The indicator shows that inflation remains above the Bank of Japan’s 2.0% target, although it continues to ease from earlier levels. While risks of persistent inflation remain, the pressure is gradually declining. For the JP 225, this reading may have a mixed effect. On one hand, slower inflation versus the previous month reduces the risk of abrupt monetary tightening and supports risk appetite. On the other hand, a reading above forecast keeps alive the possibility of rate hikes, limiting equity revaluation. Overall, the effect for the JP 225 is neutral to moderately negative in the short term, as expectations for higher rates and bond yields increase.

Discover more in our analysis for 29 August 2025. AUDUSD forecast: key trading points The AUD continues to strengthen against the USD The Australian PMI and retail sales support the Aussie AUDUSD forecast for 29 August 2025: 0.6580 Fundamental analysis Today’s AUDUSD forecast favors the Australian dollar, which continues to recover against the USD, with the pair currently trading near 0.6530. The weakness in the USD is driven by rising expectations of a Fed rate cut in September and political risks surrounding the US central bank. This has created a favorable backdrop for the Aussie’s growth and boosted the chances of a continued uptrend. Australian macroeconomic data also keeps the AUD supported. Inflation accelerated to 2.8% in July, lowering the likelihood of an RBA rate cut. Against this backdrop, the Australian dollar strengthened before entering a correction. The AUDUSD outlook also considers the positive impact of PMI and retail sales data, which sustain domestic optimism and reinforce AUD’s gains against the USD.
