Last night, the minutes of the US Federal Reserve meeting for June were published. According to the document, another increase in the interest rate by 0.75 percentage points is expected. The protocol also showed that officials are in favor of a transition to a «restrictive policy» in case of continued increased inflationary pressure. The Fed has already acknowledged the likelihood of a recession in the US economy, but the regulator wants to achieve a «soft landing», which means lower inflation without job cuts. After the publication of the protocol, the shares of technology companies rose, stabilizing the market as a whole. What other events will be able to influence the dynamics of the market today, July 7? Applications for unemployment benefits First, it is worth paying attention to the data on the number of applications for unemployment benefits in the United States. The monthly Non-Farm Payrolls report will be published tomorrow (it is expected that 268 thousand jobs will be created in the economy, which is lower than the May figure of 390 thousand). But first, the States will provide statistics on weekly applications for unemployment benefits. According to the forecast, this number will remain at the level of 230 thousand compared to a week earlier. The number of open vacancies will amount to 11.25 million vacancies, which exceeds the expected 11 million. Crude oil reserves The main event of this week was the fall in crude oil prices below the level of $ 100 per barrel. A report from the US Department of Energy on crude oil reserves in the country will be published today. Analysts expect a decline to the level of 1.04 million barrels. Levi Strauss Earnings Levi Strauss & Co, a well-known clothing and footwear manufacturer in the United States, is expected to report earnings of 23 cents per share on revenue of $1.4 billion. In addition, bank reporting will begin next week, and Wall Street's attention will be drawn to the business conditions for large lenders (as it assesses the long-term damage from sustained price increases).
