Traders have priced out dovish Fed bets, following the release of the United States (US) Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for April on Tuesday, which showed that the headline inflation accelerated to 3.8% Year-on-Year (YoY), the highest level seen in almost three years.

Meanwhile, investors await US President Donald Trump’s comments after meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.

On the Japanese Yen front, Bank of Japan (BoJ) Summary of Opinions (SoP) for the April meeting released on Tuesday showed that “an interest rate hike likely from next meeting despite uncertain Middle East outlook”.

In late Thursday’s session, investors will focus on the US Retail Sales data for April, which will be published at 12:30 GMT. The US Retail Sales data, a key measure of consumer spending, is expected to have grown at a moderate pace of 0.5% compared to the previous reading of 1.7%.
