Good morning. The recent pushback against a stronger dollar and ongoing debate about interest rate cuts have been major topics of discussion this morning. UBS has also announced plans to make more job cuts, adding to the uncertainty in financial markets. Despite these challenges, Asian stocks saw a positive start on Thursday as authorities expressed their opposition to the stronger dollar. The yen and won both strengthened against the greenback after a statement from US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, who expressed “serious concerns” about the depreciation of their currencies. Masato Kanda, Japan’s top currency official, also reiterated current currency commitments by the finance ministers of G-7 nations.
