韩国财政部：韩国将限制散户投资者对杠杆ETF投资的敞口。

BNP Paribas Markets 360 expects the Fed to hold rates, while not ruling out a surprise hike. Its baseline is one hike in December, but it sees a substantial risk the FOMC will harden inflation wording in the statement, effectively putting a September rate move back on the table. Wording on price stability will be the focal point; the statement is likely to indicate a readiness to act if needed. BNP Paribas warns absence of such language would not preclude a September hike, nor would inclusion guarantee one. At the press conference, the Fed speaker is expected to follow June’s pattern — brief opening remarks, concise answers and very limited forward guidance — and, if the statement is largely unchanged from June, opening remarks should mirror his congressional testimony on inflation, labour-market data, the outlook and the commitment to restore price stability.
