  "account": "On Friday, the Euro (EUR) remained below 1.15 against the US Dollar (USD) as European yields rose, particularly with Bund yields increasing due to heightened French sovereign risk. The report also mentioned rising inflation expectations in the Eurozone, upcoming preliminary September PMIs, and growing political pressure on German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. European rates saw a bear-flattening movement driven by rising energy prices and deteriorating French sovereign risk, with the Bund 2Y and 10Y yields increasing by 5-6 basis points and 5 basis points, respectively. Inflation expectations in the ECB's consumer survey remained stable around 3% after declining since May. Key data releases for the week include preliminary September PMIs for major economies, with a focus on potential further tightening by the ECB. In Germany, Chancellor Merz's CDU party performed poorly in regional elections, falling below the 5% threshold in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Berlin. The far-right AfD and Die Linke also saw increased support.",
