GBP/USD Analysis: Price Searching for Support

In the second half of May, the British pound showed notable strength: from its 12 May low, GBP/USD climbed to a peak on 26 May — marking its highest level in over three years.

Demand for the pound has been driven by several factors:

→ A surge in inflation. CPI data released last Wednesday came in above expectations. As a result, market participants interpreted this as a reason for the Bank of England to remain cautious about cutting interest rates. Holding rates at elevated levels is generally considered bullish for the pound.

→ The pound’s relative resilience amid trade tensions, particularly following a newly signed agreement with the US, as well as strengthening trade ties between the UK and the EU.

Can the pound continue to rise? The GBP/USD chart offers reasons for doubt.

Commodity Currencies Retreat from Highs Ahead of Fed Minutes Release

The AUD/USD and NZD/USD currency pairs are experiencing a corrective pullback after reaching medium-term highs earlier this week. This movement comes amid a broader reassessment of risk in anticipation of the release of the minutes from the latest Federal Reserve meeting. Investors and market participants are trimming positions in risk-sensitive assets, reacting to a mix of factors including monetary policy signals, geopolitical rhetoric, and tariff developments.

Additional pressure on commodity currencies was driven by today’s meeting of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ). As expected, the central bank cut its key interest rate, prompting further selling in the NZD/USD pair and fuelling speculation about potential further easing should global demand deteriorate.

The release of the FOMC minutes, scheduled for this evening, remains a key focus. Investors are looking for additional clues regarding the outlook for Federal Reserve policy easing in the second half of the year. In addition, Thursday’s US GDP data will be closely watched and may serve as a significant guide for short-term moves in the US dollar and commodity-linked currency crosses.

Technical Analysis of AUD/USD
The AUD/USD pair is trading near the 0.6450 mark, correcting from recent highs. Support appears to lie around the 0.6400 level, while today’s release of the Fed minutes could trigger increased volatility in the pair. Technical analysis of AUD/USD suggests a potential decline towards the 0.6400–0.6370 range, as a "doji" candlestick pattern has formed on the daily timeframe.

Yen and Euro Slow Their Gains

The USD/JPY and EUR/USD currency pairs are showing moderate corrections. Market participants are locking in profits and shifting to a wait-and-see approach after the release of the Federal Reserve's meeting minutes, in which the regulator reaffirmed its commitment to the current interest rate levels amid uncertainty about the macroeconomic outlook.

In the coming trading sessions, market attention will focus on a batch of statistics from the US, Japan, and the Eurozone. Today, weekly US jobless claims data and the second estimate of Q1 US GDP growth rate are expected. Tomorrow, the focus will shift to Japanese inflation data (CPI), unemployment rate, and industrial production, which could significantly impact the USD/JPY pair.

USD/JPY

The USD/JPY pair is trading near the 145.80 level, correcting in response to changes in Japanese government bond yields. The yield on 30-year bonds has dropped to 2.85% from last week’s high of 3.2%, while the yield on 10-year bonds fell to 1.46%. According to sources close to Japan’s Ministry of Finance, a survey among primary dealers indicates structurally low demand for long-term bonds — this could signal a future reduction in their issuance. Amid declining yields, the yen's strengthening has slowed, and interest in the dollar has stabilised.

US Federal Court Rules Trump Tariffs Unconstitutional

According to media reports, the US Court of International Trade has:

• declared the tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump illegal;
• ruled that the President exceeded his authority;
• blocked the tariffs, emphasising that under the US Constitution, only Congress has the power to impose tariffs.

The decision was made unanimously by a panel of three judges. Financial markets reacted with:

• a rise in US stock indices;
• strengthening of the US dollar — most notably seen today on the USD/CHF chart, as demand for so-called safe-haven assets declined in light of the tariff reversal.

Nvidia (NVDA) Stock Price Rises Over 4% Following Earnings Report

Yesterday, after the main trading session, Nvidia released its quarterly earnings report, which exceeded analysts' expectations:
→ Earnings per share: actual = $0.81, forecast = $0.73
→ Revenue: actual = $44 billion, forecast = $43.3 billion

Additionally, according to media reports, Nvidia issued a strong forecast for the next period, although CEO Jensen Huang noted difficulties in accessing the Chinese market, which he estimates to be worth $50 billion.

Nevertheless, market participants reacted positively. According to Google, in after-hours trading the NVDA stock price rose by more than 4%, surpassing the $140 level.

It is reasonable to assume that this initial positive reaction could continue during today’s main trading session.

XAU/USD Chart Analysis: Gold Price Stabilises Around $3,300

Musk Steps Away from Politics: What Does It Mean for Tesla (TSLA) Stock?

Yesterday, it was announced that Elon Musk will be stepping down from the Trump administration as his term as head of DOGE—where he focused on reducing government spending—has come to an end.

This decision follows his statement at the economic forum in Qatar, where Musk said he plans to focus less on politics, as he feels he has already done enough in that realm.

What Does This Mean for Tesla (TSLA) Stock?
Musk’s move away from politics is likely a positive signal for investors. Here's why:
→ The company’s CEO can now devote more time to addressing issues such as declining vehicle sales in Europe;
→ Musk’s role at DOGE will no longer pose reputational risks for Tesla..

During yesterday’s main trading session, TSLA stock surged to $367—its highest level since mid-February.

EUR/USD Rises to 4-Week High

As shown on the EUR/USD chart today, the euro rose to a 4-week high against the US dollar this morning.

The euro's strength relative to the US dollar is supported by traders’ expectations ahead of the ECB's interest rate decision, scheduled for Thursday at 15:15 GMT+3.

This upcoming event is notable not only because the ECB is expected to cut rates from 2.40% to 2.15% (for the seventh consecutive time), but also due to the broader context shaped by ECB President Christine Lagarde’s recent remarks on the euro’s status as a reserve currency.

At the same time, the US dollar is weakening amid growing trade concerns—on Friday, the US President Donald Trump announced plans to double tariffs on steel and aluminum to 50%. He also accused China of breaching the recent trade truce.

Silver Price Hits Year-to-Date High

As shown on the XAG/USD chart, silver prices rose on Monday, surpassing the previous high of the year, which was set on 28th March at around $33.50 per ounce.

Why Is Silver Rising?
A bullish driver came from statements made by the White House. According to media reports:

→ US President Donald Trump announced on Friday evening plans to double tariffs on steel and aluminium imports to 50%, starting 4th June. This intervention in the global metals market may have also impacted silver prices, given silver’s significant industrial value.

→ Trump's claims that China violated the trade agreement reached in Geneva last month further cast doubt on the prospects of a phone call between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Meta Platforms (META) Shares Surge Over 3% in a Day

Shares of American tech giant Meta Platforms (META) rose approximately 3.6% yesterday, continuing their upward trend after gaining about 18% in May.

Why Is META Stock Rising?
Reports emerged yesterday that the company plans to fully automate the ad creation process using artificial intelligence.

How Could AI-Based Social Media Advertising Work?
