Jin10 data on August 14 reported that Thierry Wizman, a global forex and interest rate strategist at Macquarie Group, pointed out that the potential peace protocol between Russia and Ukraine could be a double-edged sword for the euro. The prospect of a peace protocol or indefinite ceasefire would weaken the buying of geopolitical safe-haven assets such as the Swiss franc and yen seen last week, and drive capital flows towards the euro; but it would also provide greater energy security and drop energy costs, as oil prices are expected to fall. In contrast to the "peace" narrative, the conflict may also boost the prospects for European rise and re-inflation, as it has triggered new commitments to increase European defense spending and related infrastructure spending. Therefore, after emphasizing the double-edged sword effect of the potential peace protocol on the euro, Wizman stated that if a ceasefire or comprehensive peace protocol is reached, the euro/USD will further rise amidst still high European defense spending.

PANews August 14 news, CryptoQuant analyst Yonseident stated that the NUPL (Net Unrealized PNL) indicator shows that when the value is above 0, most coins are in a profitable state, which may trigger profit selling. Historically, the peaks of market cycles are usually accompanied by NUPL peaks. There was a peak in the market in 2017, two in 2021, and the current cycle may be forming a third peak. Unlike before, this round of market fluctuations is more stable, mainly influenced by the inflow of institutional funds such as U.S. ETFs.

Jin10 data reported on August 14th that the macro research report from China Merchants states that recently, the equity market has created emotional suppression on the bond market, making stock trading a major factor affecting interest rate trends. However, due to the different pricing foundations of the two asset classes, the stock-bond seesaw is merely a phenomenon and not a rule, which will make it difficult for stock trading to sustain bond trading. From the underlying logic, the supply and demand of money remains the fundamental influence on the price of money (i.e., interest rate). Looking ahead, as the financing demand from the real sector weakens and the Central Bank continues to maintain ample liquidity, there is a lack of a sustained upward basis for interest rates, and the 1.7% yield on ten-year bonds still represents a window period for getting on board. The disclosure of financial data during this period has further strengthened our judgment of being bullish on the bond market; what is needed now may just be confidence and time.

According to Jincai Finance, NBC News reported that five informed sources, including two European officials, revealed that during a call with European leaders on Wednesday local time, U.S. President Trump made it clear that the core goal of his meeting with Russian President Putin this week is to facilitate a ceasefire in Ukraine, rather than discuss territorial divisions.

Some European leaders sensed from the call that Trump has cautious expectations for the results of this meeting. However, the five informed sources emphasized that all leaders agreed on two core principles: Ukraine must be involved in the negotiations throughout, and the decision-making power regarding territorial concessions belongs exclusively to Ukraine. They revealed that allies unanimously believe that if Putin refuses a ceasefire, Trump may impose new sanctions on Russia.

Jin10 data reported on August 14th that despite facing the impact of US tariffs, Japan's economy is still expected to achieve moderate growth in the second quarter driven by domestic demand from capital expenditures, thus avoiding a technical recession.

Among 32 analysts surveyed, there is significant divergence in forecasts: 4 expect the economy to continue contracting, while 5 believe the growth rate will reach 1% or higher. The Japanese Cabinet Office will release preliminary data on Friday. This data may prompt the Central Bank of Japan to maintain its policy path for another rate hike this year—as long as authorities are confident that they can withstand the ongoing pressure of US trade policies on global business with resilient domestic demand.
