Key Events This Week: CPI, PPI Retail Sales, Trump-Putin Summit As we move into mid-August, markets are bracing for a surprisingly busy week, with several key events and data releases likely to shape sentiment; of these, the most closely watched will be tomorrow's US CPI report, which after the last week of July which had both the jobs report and the Fed meeting, could prove to be one of the larger events of the summer for markets, according to Deutsche Bank's Peter Sidorov.  And as DB's Jim Reid notes, also on the radar is Friday's high-stakes meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska as the US has pushed for a ceasefire in Ukraine. Last Friday Trump said a deal would involve “some swapping of territories” with reports suggesting that it would see Ukraine ceding Russia the parts of Donbas that it still controls. Ukraine's President Zelenskiy was quick to reject the idea and European leaders have called for any peace talks with Russia to include Kyiv. Bloomberg report...

Col. MacGregor: Dear President Trump, Keep America First - Not Israel first, Not Ukraine First Authored by Col. Douglas Macgregor (ret.) In the last 72 hours, Israel launched a preemptive strike against Iran when negotiations between Washington and Tehran were still ongoing. Iran was caught off-guard. But Iran recovered more quickly from its Pearl Harbor moment than Israel expected. In less than 18 hours after Israel's surprise attack, Iran responded firing hundreds of ballistic missiles including hypersonic missiles into central Tel Aviv and across Israel. Meanwhile, Israel's Iron Dome failed. Israeli intelligence failed. Now Netanyahu is pleading with Washington to intervene with American Military Power to rescue Israel from certain defeat; a defeat Netanyahu crafted with encouragement from Washington. At the same time, Russia, China, Pakistan and most of the Muslim World are rallying to Iran's defense. Supplies, equipment and technical assistance are pouring into Iran. It's time for a ...
