King Dollar looks tired and slightly defeated on the daily charts. Prices are struggling to push back above 97.15. Sustained weakness below this point may open the doors towards 96.00.
Euro remains choppy
The Euro’s movement against the Dollar was choppy, rough and rocky this week. A breakdown below 1.1270 could open the doors towards 1.1200. If 1.1270 proves to be reliable support, prices may rebound towards 1.1360.
Pound pushes higher
Sterling has appreciated against every single G10 currency this week. GBPUSD bulls are greedily eying the 1.2750 level. With the 50 SMA on the cusp of crossing above the 100 SMA, the technical remain in favour of bulls.
USDJPY breakdown setup in play
The USDJPY has broken below the 107.00 support level. A weekly close below this point may open a path towards 105.90.
Commodity spotlight – Gold
After charging to levels not seen in nine years, Gold may experience a technical correction back towards the $1780-$1765 regions before bulls gather fresh momentum. Although prices have cut through the psychological $1800 level like a hot knife through butter, a weekly close below this point could trigger a much-needed correction.

Shares of Clean Energy Fuels Corp. established a new 52-week high after the company reported it is teaming up with Chevron on its Adopt-a-Port renewable natural gas initiative to reduce emissions.
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (CLNE:NASDAQ), which supplies compressed, liquefied and renewable natural gas for light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, yesterday announced that it is partnering with Chevron Corp. (CVX:NYSE) on its Adopt-a-Port initiative. The firms stated that “the Adopt-a-Port program provides truck operators serving the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach with cleaner, carbon-negative renewable natural gas (RNG) to reduce emissions.”
As part of the Adopt-a-Port program, Chevron will be responsible for providing funding to subsidize truck operators to cover the cost of buying new RNG-powered trucks and supplying RNG to Clean Energy stations located near the ports. Clean Energy is charged with offering fueling services to qualified truck operators and managing the program.
The companies claimed that the initiative will serve to eliminate climate pollutants and will result in the reduction of smog-forming NOx emissions by 98% compared to diesel trucks.
Chevron’s V.P. of Americas Products – West Mike Vomund, commented, “We are excited to be partnering with Clean Energy as we continue to innovate in the renewable, low-carbon fuel space…Along with other recent investments like CalBio, selling branded renewable diesel in San Diego County and piloting EV charging stations, Adopt-a-Port further demonstrates Chevron’s commitment to increasing renewables in support of our business, continuing our overall aim to provide the affordable, reliable and ever-cleaner energy.”
“Switching trucks to fuel with RNG is vital to improving air quality and fighting climate change in our country’s largest port complex,” said Greg Roche, vice president, Clean Energy. “We’re proud to partner with Chevron on the Adopt-a-Port initiative that will put additional clean, carbon-negative trucks on the road and lessen the environmental impact on operations in the region.”
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. is based in Newport Beach, Calif., and is a provider of clean fuel for the transportation market. The company’s Redeem renewable natural gas (RNG) is derived from captured biogenic methane that is produced from decomposing organic waste. The company’s RNG products help power commercial vehicle fleets, airport shuttles, city buses and waste and heavy-duty trucks. The firm indicates on its website that it has a network of approximately 540 fueling stations across the U.S. and Canada and can deliver Redeem through both compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG).
Clean Energy started the day with a market capitalization of around $444.0 million with approximately 200.9 million shares outstanding. CLNE shares opened higher today at $2.29 (+$0.08, +3.62%) over yesterday’s $2.21 closing price and reached a new 52-week high price this morning of $3.75. The stock has traded today between $2.28 and $3.75 per share and is currently trading at $2.87 (+$0.66, +29.81%).

Financial services play a major role in the economic lives of most Americans, from the moment their paychecks are directly deposited into a bank account to the loan taken out to buy their first home or car.
Yet over 12 million people – about 6% of U.S. adults – cannot access these services because they do not have a bank account. Economists call these individuals financially excluded or the “unbanked.” Being unbanked is costly, both financially and in terms of missed economic opportunities, and afflicts communities of color most.
The coronavirus recession exposes these costs even further. For example, the unbanked have had to wait much longer than those with accounts to get “economic impact” checks – and some are still waiting. Prompt access to emergency lending is vital to helping poorer Americans endure the crisis.
Its roots in the U.S. can be traced back to the New Deal’s Federal Housing Administration, which limited mortgage lending to middle-income, predominantly white suburbs. The problem grew worse in the 1980s and ‘90s, when deregulation allowed banks to operate across state lines, leading to a decline in the number of community banks. National banks were less willing to lend in low-income neighborhoods.
While some people avoid banks because of the fees, being left out of the banking system has other costs. With less access to other lines of credit, the unbanked are more likely to use expensive alternatives such as title loans – in which a borrower uses a vehicle title as collateral – for emergency expenses. Annual interest rates on such loans can be as high as 300%.
And being unbanked means it’s harder to develop a credit history. Without one, it is more difficult to get a mortgage loan – and thus much harder to buy a home.
The COVID-19 pandemic, by causing a dramatic collapse in economic activity and skyrocketing unemployment rates, has compounded these problems.
Even in good times, more than 10% of Americans report they are unable to pay for an unexpected US$400 expense – and would struggle even more without access to credit.
Those without a banking account have even fewer options to get emergency cash, such as title or payday loans. Another option, which my research shows is especially true among women of color, is asking friends or family for money. Yet with unemployment rates reaching a staggering 19.5% for Hispanic women and 17.5% for black women, community resources will be stretched thin.
Financial exclusion also hampered the rollout of part of the coronavirus bailout that promised stimulus payments of up to $3,400 per family. Americans with checking accounts received the payment within a few weeks via direct deposit, while those without one had to wait far longer. As of early June, 13 to 18 million Americans who were expecting a check still had not received one.
This delay is more than an inconvenience for households living paycheck to paycheck. Many Americans urgently need prescriptions they can’t afford and are at risk of being evicted from their homes.
How postal banking works
Conventional banks claim they cannot serve the unbanked because small-dollar loans and accounts with low balances aren’t profitable.
Postal banking, however, could serve the unbanked and do so efficiently. While there are variousways to do this, a basic postal banking system would allow every United States Postal Service branch to act as a limited-service bank, offering services like checking and saving accounts, pre-paid debit cards and small loans.
As a public corporation that doesn’t need to worry about rewarding investors, the USPS could offer financial services to more Americans at a lower cost than banks. USPS branches are already located in virtually every neighborhood in the U.S., and over half are in banking deserts. This existing network would reduce overhead. And the USPS is in a better position to handle a loan default because it could garnish tax refunds, reducing the cost of collecting on unpaid loans.
What’s more, this would also offer a financial lifeline to the postal service, which has been losing money for over a decade. The USPS predicts that offering postal banking services could provide between $8 billion and $10 billion in additional revenue a year, which would offset at least some of its current shortfall.
History and current practice show that postal banking is feasible. It is already used in 139 countries around the world, such as France, New Zealand and Italy.
And in the U.S., Congress created a government-guaranteed savings scheme in 1910 to encourage people to put their money in the financial system – as opposed to their mattresses and cookie jars. According to “How the Other Half Banks,” by banking law expert Mehrsa Baradaran, the United States Postal Savings System was quite popular. As its peak, it held $3.4 billion in deposits.
But after World War II, conventional banks began to offer much higher interest rates on their deposits – with the same government guarantee. And banks began to open up branches in more underserved neighborhoods. The postal savings system stopped taking new deposits in 1966.
The details differ from proposal to proposal. Some proponents – including USPS itself – see postal banking as a complement to private sector banks, which would continue to offer a wider range of services. Others support a public bank that would compete directly with private banks through a financial services marketplace.
Banks, including small community banks, have generally opposed postal banking. Yet the experience of other countries suggests that a postal bank can coexist with a thriving financial services industry – while ensuring fewer Americans are left behind.
The yellow metal has seen a strong rally this week with price breaking out to fresh 2020 highs.
The move comes despite equities remaining near recent highs and is primarily driven by the sell-off in the US dollar.
The greenback has come under renewed selling pressure this week amidst growing fears of a second wave of COVID-19. Currently, over 40 states are reporting new highs in infection numbers.
The US has come under widespread criticism for its handling of the virus. Some states are needing to reintroduce lockdown measures to combat a fresh outbreak of the virus.
US unemployment claims on Thursday came in lower than expected. This suggests that the post-lockdown recovery in the economy is continuing this month.
The June jobs report highlighted record growth in employment with nearly 5 million jobs added last month. However, the prospect of further lockdowns is weighing on USD, keeping gold prices supported as traders move back into the safe-haven on a larger scale.
Gold Hits Highest levels Since 2011
Gold price broke out above the 1795.66 level this week, trading back up to their highest level since 2011. While price holds above here, the next level to watch is the 2011 closing high of 1823.25.
As price continues to move higher within the rising wedge pattern, traders should keep an eye on the RSI indicator as any bearish divergence could highlight a potential reversal lower.
Silver
Silver prices have been well supported this week amidst a perfect combination of higher equities prices, higher gold prices, and a lower US dollar.
With USD likely to remain under pressure in the near term, the outlook remains bullish for silver. Recent industrial data sets have helped support silver as manufacturing continues to recover, reinforcing the view of a demand recovery for silver.
However, this view could change if the virus in the US causes further lockdowns.
Tensions between the US and China could also pose downside risks for silver if hostilities lead to a breakdown in trade negotiations. Prices were heavily weighed down by the two-year US/China trade war which decimated demand levels in silver.
Silver Approaching 2019 Highs
Silver prices have broken out above the bearish trend line and the 18.83 level this week. While price remains above the broken trend line, focus remains on a further grind higher.
The 2019 highs of 19.62 are the next upside area to watch. Should price break back below the trend line, the 17.42 level is the main support to note ahead of deeper support at the 16.53 level.
European governments are spending unprecedented levels of money on COVID relief. Therefore, it’s only natural to wonder: how is this going to be paid for?
Germany might have the fiscal latitude to adjust its budget to address the issue. But what about countries like Italy, or France, which were already above EU debt guidelines?
The shutdown makes things more complicated for government finances. And not just because of the increased spending. In fact, since when has a government actually reduced its spending once given the opportunity to spend, anyway?
The economic fallout means that governments are expected to collect less revenue in taxes. And then there are countries, like Italy, they’re considering cutting taxes to stimulate the economy.
Where’s the Money Coming From?
A closer look at the much-vaunted “Next Generation EU” program that promises €750B in spending on the part of the central EU government, can give us some insight.
The EU plans to raise those funds on capital markets, and will then have to pay them back. From where? The EU doesn’t collect taxes. Its members contribute in order to finance it.
In the second part of the agreement, there are some mentions of how to pay it off. They include increasing fees from the Emissions Trading System, and carbon border adjustment fees.
But the agreement also provides provision for a digital tax on companies making over €750M a year, and taxes on companies that “draw huge benefits from the EU single market”.
The document says these new sources of revenue “may” pay off the debt. However, it doesn’t say the sources will be terminated once the debt is paid off.
Effectively, this creates two new income streams for the EU.
But We Don’t Want to Talk About That Now
Just yesterday, the ECB’s Villeroy said that France should aim to stabilize taxes, not raise or lower them.
Business Minister of Ireland Varadkar urged for cuts to business taxes. Last week Italian PM Conte insisted on tax cuts for middle-income earners in Italy.
At least publicly on a national level, government officials are pushing to cut taxes to help the economy overcome COVID.
Perhaps the increase in spending at the EU level, plus new EU sources of revenue, is a way for national governments to “endorse” the collection of unpopular taxes to the EU.
This Isn’t Exactly New
The EU wanting to implement a digital tax and increase carbon emissions costs has been a present issue for nearly a decade at this point.
The need to pay down increased debt might offer an opportunity to finally pass those measures.
National governments cutting some of the taxes for a limited period of time might offset the tax burden of introducing the measures on the EU level. But any tax cuts national governments implement now will likely last only the duration of the coronavirus emergency, by which time EU-level taxes will be firmly established.

The Euro continued to stabilise against the region around 1.1150/1200, while still aiming at the 1.1300 mark, as such a sustainable break higher levels the path up to 1.1400/50 and possibly even higher.
Technically, we consider the region around 1.1350 to be the “make-or-break” level, where a sustainable break higher could deliver the fuel for a stint up to the region around the current yearly highs.
But the question is: “What could ignite such a bullish stint and break higher?”, especially given the quite thin economic calendar for the weekly close and the near-future?
Our main focus remains on the developments in 10-year US yields, as they near the important support region around 0.60%, and a break lower would not only drive Gold higher, but also the USD lower (thus pushing EUR/USD higher).
As already pointed out in our last on Gold last Wednesday, the shrinking Fed balance sheet resulting out of a continuing decline in demand for the US central bank’s USD swap lines from foreign central banks like the ECB, BoJ or BoE while rather sooner than later reverse again and thus result in pressure on US yields and on the US dollar again.
Therefore, we should keep a close eye on developments in Equity markets, where rising volatility could trigger such an expansive monetary policy approach from the Fed among market participants.
While short-term a break above 1.1350 brings the focus on the region around 1.1400/50, the broader picture and break above leaves EUR/USD with bullish potential up to the region around 1.1700/1.1800, while only a drop below 1.1150 could trigger a deeper correction with a target around 1.1000:
