[Moscow Refinery Halts Production After Drone Attack] Russian industrial sources say a major Moscow refinery has suspended crude oil processing after a Ukrainian drone attack on September 20, due to a fire in a main crude oil distillation unit. The mayor of Moscow stated on Sunday that an industrial facility was damaged during the drone attack on the Russian capital. Three industry sources said on Monday that two main crude oil distillation units at the refinery caught fire after the drone crashed, and repairs and resumption of production could take several weeks. Of the refinery's two core processing facilities, the AVT-6 crude oil distillation unit has a daily capacity of 21,400 tons, accounting for 53% of the refinery's total capacity; the EURO+ integrated crude oil processing facility has a daily capacity of 18,800 tons, accounting for the remaining 47%.

[Bank of Canada Governor: Weighing Interest Rate Policy Amid Multiple Constraints] Bank of Canada Governor John Macklem stated that future interest rate policy will depend on two key factors: how businesses and households cope with high energy prices and renewed trade uncertainty. Central bank officials are prepared to adjust monetary policy based on the development of these two major risks. He said, "If inflationary pressures are under control, we do not want to stifle economic growth by raising the policy rate. But if inflationary pressures are becoming more persistent, we also do not want to react too slowly."

23:25:48

[Bank of Canada: New US Tariffs Could Push Canada's Q4 Economic Growth Below 1%] Bank of Canada Governor John Macklem said on Monday that new US tariffs could cause Canada's fourth-quarter economic growth to fall below 1%. Macklem stated that when assessing interest rate policy, the central bank needs to consider two factors: slower economic growth could push inflation down, but the Middle East conflict leading to higher oil prices could, in turn, push inflation higher. He noted that Canada's current annual inflation rate is 3%, well above the central bank's 2% target; if oil prices remain around $100 per barrel, the inflation rate could rise slightly further. The Canadian economy rebounded in the second quarter, with an annualized growth rate of 3.3%. After nearly 18 months of the impact of US tariffs, businesses and households began adjusting their plans and resuming investment and consumption arrangements. However, with the breakdown of negotiations on a potential trade agreement between the two countries, US-Canada relations have further deteriorated, and the US has introduced a new round of tariffs. Macklem stated, "This latest round of escalation could again cause businesses to postpone investment and hiring decisions." He said that if these new tariffs persist, Canada's fourth-quarter economic growth could be roughly halved, falling below 1%.

This new entity will be "closely related to defense." The report states that the new legal entity will coordinate the promotion of defense equipment exports, foster related emerging companies, strengthen the production base, and manage nationalized key equipment manufacturing plants. The report notes that this move has been questioned by some opposition parties in Japan, who point out that it is reminiscent of pre-World War II Japanese arsenals. (CCTV International News)

[Russia Poised to Extend Diesel Export Ban Amid Continued Attacks on Refineries] According to sources, Russia is poised to extend its ban on most diesel exports beyond the end of September due to ongoing attacks on Russian refineries. The sources indicated that there is a consensus to extend the ban. One source stated that extending the restrictions for another month, or even longer, is under consideration. Russia imposed the ban in July after a series of Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries, causing the country's oil processing volumes to plummet to multi-year lows. The export restrictions were initially expected to last only a few weeks, but as the attacks continued, the ban was first extended to the end of August, and then to the end of September.

23:07:44

Bank of Canada Governor Macklem: So far, we have not seen any evidence that higher oil prices are spreading to other goods and services. Recent natural gas prices have been more aligned with oil prices, which are almost $40 higher than before. If inflationary pressures are under control, we do not want to raise interest rates to stifle growth. There is mounting evidence that many Canadian businesses have begun to adapt to U.S. tariff policies. Labor force growth is expected to be near zero for the next few years.

23:06:45

Bank of Canada Governor Macklem: There are risks in delaying interest rate hikes for too long. If new US tariffs continue, fourth-quarter growth could be halved significantly, falling below 1%. If oil prices remain near $100 per barrel, we expect inflation to rise slightly in the coming months. The larger-than-expected rise in fuel prices reflects damage to global refining capacity.

[Soaring Oil Prices Impact Midterm Elections, Time Running Out for Republicans] Republican lawmakers have little time left to appease voters angered by inflation, with Capitol Hill witnessing a final act of finger-pointing. Many believe this issue is the biggest political threat facing the Republicans in the midterm elections. Diesel is a primary fuel for trucks and agricultural machinery, and soaring prices have particularly hardened the impact on rural areas and red states. In Iowa, Nebraska, and other states, the Republicans are facing a tougher campaign than anticipated, struggling to retain seats. Some strategists and lawmakers worry that if voters direct their anger at Republican candidates, the party could suffer a disastrous election result. Lawmakers have proposed several solutions, including suspending the federal gasoline tax and imposing a fuel export ban, while acknowledging various practical constraints on such measures. This conflict, which began in February, has become a Achilles' heel for President Trump and his party. Trump had previously promised to end endless overseas wars and to lower prices. With only two weeks remaining in the Senate session before the election, there are currently no plans to vote on suspending the gasoline tax or other measures aimed at lowering fuel prices. Even if the senators pass such a bill, it would be difficult to get it to the president's desk quickly, as the Republican-controlled House of Representatives adjourned last week.

Morgan Stanley strategists, including Eli Carter, say that basis trading in U.S. Treasury bonds and futures remains active and functioning well. They point out that while basis trading has changed in size, composition, and expected returns, it has not disappeared. From a duration-adjusted risk perspective, the trade has "virtually contracted." Total notional size has decreased from a peak of $1.5 trillion in January to approximately $1.2 trillion. The reduction in size is primarily concentrated at the front of the curve—specifically, TU (2-year) and FV (5-year) futures. In contrast, strategists say that WN (ultra-long-term) positions, representing the far end of the curve, have increased by 50% year-over-year. While concerns have arisen regarding increased dealer exposure as banking regulations have eased, and this exposure has indeed expanded, "the current shift remains moderate, and we believe it is unlikely to impose a substantial constraint on dealers' intermediary business."

[OpenAI and Anthropic Talked About Mutual AI Model Security Testing] ⑴ According to The Information, sources revealed that OpenAI had already negotiated a legally binding agreement with Anthropic before a series of cybersecurity incidents and stern warnings from industry insiders. The agreement would involve mutual stress testing of AI models. ⑵ It is unclear whether the two parties have finalized an agreement. ⑶ This mutual testing approach is similar to the idea proposed by SpaceX CEO Elon Musk at the All-In Summit last week, where he suggested that competing AI labs should peer-review each other's models for security vulnerabilities before commercializing them. ⑷ Overall, the exploration of mutual testing mechanisms by leading AI companies reflects rising industry concerns about model security risks. The future depends on whether such agreements can be implemented and whether peer review becomes a standard practice in AI security governance.

[Tractor Growth in India Expected to Slow Significantly, Insufficient Monsoon a Key Risk] ⑴ The rating agency ICRA warns that the growth rate of tractor wholesale volume in India is expected to slow to 1% to 4% in fiscal year 2027 due to the high base effect and insufficient monsoon, impacting agricultural activity and rural income. ⑵ Tractor wholesale volume saw strong growth of 23.5% in fiscal year 2026, but the growth rate is expected to decline significantly in fiscal year 2027. Downside risks stem from uneven and insufficient monsoon, which could drag down agricultural activity and rural income. ⑶ Tractor wholesale volume increased by 6.5% year-on-year in August, but retail registrations only increased by 0.8%. ICRA states that after nearly 18 months of strong double-digit growth, retail demand is beginning to reflect the unfavorable base, with increased rainfall pressure in some rural areas. ⑷ Monsoon performance remains a key risk to tractor demand in fiscal year 2027. Due to El Niño, as of September 14, 2026, the cumulative rainfall from the southwest monsoon is 85% of the long-term average. (5) The Indian Meteorological Department's first-phase long-term forecast projected total precipitation to be around 4% of the long-term average, but subsequent data showed significant insufficient rainfall across the country. (6) The ICRA warned that continued insufficient rainfall could harm autumn crop production and farm income, thereby discouraging farmers' willingness to invest in tractors and other agricultural machinery, and potentially postponing replacement demand for the remainder of fiscal year 2027, especially given the continued pressure on rural cash flow. (7) Despite the expected slowdown in sales, tractor manufacturers are likely to maintain resilient operating margins; the ICRA stated that operating leverage and stable raw material procurement costs should support profitability. (8) Overall, the tractor industry's growth prospects are closely linked to the monsoon and its impact on farm income. Going forward, attention should be paid to the recovery of rainfall and the strength of rural cash flow in supporting replacement and new machine purchases.

Morgan Stanley Raises Inflation Forecasts, Expects ECB to Raise Rates Again in December ⑴ Morgan Stanley economists stated in a report that the recent resurgence in natural gas and energy prices prompted a significant upward revision of their inflation forecasts. ⑵ The bank added a forecast of another ECB rate hike in December to its projections, and expects a much shallower easing cycle to follow in 2027. ⑶ Economists pointed out that energy prices alone cannot fully explain the changing outlook; Eurozone economic activity has proven more resilient than expected, thus alleviating concerns that moderate additional tightening would derail growth. ⑷ Therefore, the ECB is increasingly focused on preventing higher energy costs from spreading to other sectors of the economy, even if interest rates move further into restrictive territory. ⑸ These economists added that the energy shock has changed the discussion about inflation, but the resilience of growth has changed the discussion about policy. ⑹ Overall, Morgan Stanley views rising energy prices and growth resilience as the dual drivers of a policy shift. The focus now shifts to whether the ECB will deliver on its December rate hike, and the pace and depth of the easing cycle in 2027.

[Pound Sterling's Performance Flat, Focus on Budget Risk and Key Support] ⑴ The pound opened flat on Monday, largely reflecting the overall tone of G10 currencies. Market participants avoided chasing either direction, with energy prices retreating from recent highs providing a modest boost. ⑵ With four to five weeks until the autumn budget on October 28, the focus will increasingly shift to whether governments are willing to make tough decisions to keep the economy on track. ⑶ This information is not new, but since the pound appears to have not priced in much budget risk premium, downside potential will be exposed if the market faces a series of probing policy signals ahead of the budget. ⑷ Chart analysis shows that the pound/dollar pair is attempting to form higher lows after its recent pullback, which could provide a short-term respite. ⑸ However, a break below this level, and a clean break below the late July low of 1.3274, would open the door to a deeper decline towards the 2026 low of 1.3140. ⑹ The path of least resistance remains further range-bound trading with a slight downside bias, unless the pound/dollar pair can hold key support and build momentum. (7) Overall, the pound lacks a directional catalyst in the short term, with budget politics and energy price movements becoming the main variables. Going forward, attention should be paid to the effectiveness of the 1.3274 support level and the repricing of risk premiums by pre-budget policy signals.

The future trajectory of French bond yields and the potential transmission of the country's fiscal situation to financial institutions should be closely monitored.

[Russia Plans to Extend Diesel Export Ban, Adding Further Uncertainty to Global Supply] ⑴ Sources familiar with the matter revealed that due to ongoing attacks on Russian refineries by Ukraine, Russia is preparing to extend most of its diesel export ban beyond the end of September, and is currently considering extending it for another month or even longer. ⑵ Russia imposed a diesel export ban in July, when a series of attacks on Russian refineries by Ukraine caused Russian oil processing volumes to plummet to multi-year lows. ⑶ The export restrictions were initially expected to last only a few weeks, but as the attacks continued, Russia subsequently extended the ban for a month, and then further extended it to the end of September. ⑷ As of last week, Moscow had been studying the possibility of extending the diesel export ban again. ⑸ Before the restrictions were implemented, Russia's seaborne diesel supply accounted for approximately 10% of the global total. ⑹ Removing this portion of supply from the market exacerbated the impact of supply disruptions in the Middle East, further pushing up prices. ⑺ Overall, if the Russian diesel export ban is extended again, it will further tighten the global diesel balance beyond the supply disruptions in the Middle East. The final deadline of the ban and the frequency of attacks on Russian refineries will be crucial in determining the impact on export recovery.
