US focus: Dollar slipped

The dollar declines versus a basket of currencies as in the U.S. Congress Republicans and Democrats are still locked in a stalemate on raising the debt ceiling.

Even believing there will be a last-minute deal on the debt ceiling, the head of China's Dagong rating agency still plans to cut its U.S. rating soon. He said that the only question will be the size of the move.

Another factor for falling is statement by Richmond Fed Lacker about US economy.

The euro rising against the dollar after a huge drop, which was triggered as yesterday rating agency S&P downgraded the credit rating of Greece to 'CC' from 'CCC' with negative outlook. The downgrade of Greece by 2 notches takes it to the same level as Moody's Ca rating (developing outlook).

The kiwi slightly dropped against the dollar. The currency rose toward a record high after the central bank said it will likely remove the half-percentage-point “insurance” cut in the target lending rate made after a February earthquake. But the rise was curbed as Reserve Bank Governor Alan Bollard signaled that strength of New Zealand’ dollar may reduce the extent of rate increases.

Japan yen also went up as US President and the senators still haven’t reached an agreement on raising the US national debt..

Before the bell: Debt debate may drag stocks

U.S. stocks were set to open little changed Wednesday, as investors worried about the impending debt ceiling deadline, and lawmakers showed little evidence they are moving closer to a deal.
On Thursday, the House will vote on the debt ceiling plan favored by Republicans. Even if the measure passes, it is expected to die in the Senate, and President Obama has threatened to veto it.

Economy: The Labor Department reported 398,000 Americans filed for initial unemployment benefits last week (the first time claims have dropped below 400,000 in more than three months). Economists had expected 415,000 claims.
Investors are also looking ahead to Friday's monthly GDP report. The government will report how much the economy expanded in the second quarter.
A survey of economists forecasts the economy grew only at a 1.8% annual rate in the second quarter, which would be a slight slowdown from the first quarter, when it grew 1.9%.
Companies: Oil producer Exxon Mobil (XOM, Fortune 500) reported earnings per share of $2.18, missing analyst estimates of $2.33 per share. Revenues came in at $125.4 billion, up from $92.5 billion over the same period last year. Shares dropped more than 1% in premarket trading.
Investors will also get results from MetLife (MET, Fortune 500) and Starbucks (SBUX, Fortune 500) after Thursday's closing bell.
