Marc Chandler, Managing Partner at Bannockburn Global ForEx and Editor of the Marc To Market website joins us to discuss recent economic data from Australia, Japan, and the U.S., examining its potential impact on global markets. Discussions include Australia’s surprising CPI results, Japan’s robust industrial production data, and the critical U.S. jobs data. Marc sheds light on how these data points influence central bank policies and market dynamics, focusing on trends in major currencies like the Yen and the Dollar.
We also explore market predictions, including the likelihood of Fed rate cuts, and analyze what this means for traders and investors. The conversation also addresses the possibility of the long awaited recession coming in 2025.
