US Market View
U.S. stock indexes were set to open slightly higher on Wednesday, although a lack of clear catalysts kept trading slow, with investors awaiting fresh cues from inflation data this week and an upcoming Federal Reserve meeting
U.S. President Biden departs for Britain on Wednesday on his first trip abroad since taking office, heading to St. Ives in Cornwall for a G-7 summit. The meeting is likely to be dominated by discussions over the availability of Western coronavirus vaccines, amid differences over how to make more shots available to low-income countries as well as the intellectual property rights for the drug makers. That said, before Thursday’s get together, officials from Britain and the European Union are set to meet to try and defuse a row over Northern Ireland that threatens to spill over into legal action.
Markets have been on tenterhooks for much of this week ahead of Thursday’s release of the U.S. consumer price index for May. This will be one of the last major pieces of economic data ahead of the upcoming Fed meeting next week and a big number could jolt the central bank into action.
If China’s inflationary backdrop is any guide, the market is holding its breath with just cause. China's factory gate prices rose at their fastest annual pace in over 12 years in May, driven by surging commodity prices, highlighting the mounting global inflation pressures. China's PPI increased 9.0% on the year, a sharp jump from the 6.8% increase in April, with the rise driven by significant price increases in crude oil, iron ore and non-ferrous metals.
Crude oil prices pushed higher Wednesday, helped by growing confidence about the outlook of fuel demand as the global economy recovers, particularly the U.S., the largest consumer in the world.

How Will BoJ Meeting Affect the Yen
Hold onto your hats, folks! The Japanese yen took a nosedive after the Bank of Japan (BOJ) left its ultra-loose policy settings unchanged, including its closely watched yield curve control (YCC) policy. But wait, there's more!
