Euro area yields drop after US-EU trade deal, Fed, BoJ, data in focus
July 28 (Reuters) - Euro area government bond yields dropped on Monday after a trade agreement between the U.S. and the European Union introduced a 15% U.S. import tariff on most EU goods, broadly in line with economists' forecasts. Expectations of a tariff deal and a hawkish tilt from the European Central Bank prompted investors to scale back bets on future rate cuts last week, pricing in just a 60% chance of a 25 bps easing move by December. However, ECB policymakers appeared to temper market bets on no more rate cuts the day after the central bank meeting. Investors were staying on the sidelines at the start of a week packed with central bank policy meetings — including the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan — and key economic data releases from the U.S. and the euro area. Germany's 10-year government bond yield, the euro area's benchmark, was down 2 basis points (bps) at 2.70%, after rising more than 10 bps in the last two sessions. While roughly in line with reports from last week, the U.S.-EU trade deal removed near-term "no deal" and higher tariff scenarios. "Mutually disruptive escalation and retaliation between two global trade heavyweights will be avoided," said Mark Wall, chief euro area economist at Deutsche Bank. Some economists argued that the deflationary impact of a 30% tariff on EU goods - the rate U.S. President Donald Trump had threatened to impose without a deal - could have prompted the ECB to cut its deposit rate to 1.5% from the current 2%. Markets are pricing an ECB depo rate at 1.84% by December -- implying a 65% chance of a rate cut by December -- from 1.85% late Friday and 1.78% before the ECB statement on Thursday. They indicated a depo rate at 1.73% early last week, before a U.S.-Japan trade deal helped ease fears over the recessionary impact of a trade war. The Bank of Japan is set to hold off raising interest rates on Thursday but may signal rate hikes later this year, after the trade agreement. Trump said on Friday he had a good meeting with Fed Chair Jerome Powell and got the impression that the head of the U.S. central bank might be ready to lower rates. Markets still expect rates unchanged. German 2-year government bond yields – more sensitive to expectations for European Central Bank policy rates – fell 1.5 basis points (bps) to 1.92%. Italy's 10-year government bond yields were down 3 bps at 3.55%, with the spread between BTP and Bund yields - a market gauge of the risk premium investors demand to hold Italian debt - at 85.5 bps. It hit 84.20 bps in June, its lowest since March 2015. (Reporting by Stefano Rebaudo, editing by Ros Russell)

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE phone with One UI 8 is in the works: What to expect
Samsung is reportedly working on the Galaxy S25 FE, a new smartphone in its Fan Edition series. According to a report by Live Mint, details about the device's colour options and storage variants have surfaced online, hinting at a familiar configuration similar to last year's S24 FE and new shades as of current Galaxy S25 lineup. The official launch is expected to take place around September. Samsung Galaxy S25 FE: What to expect According to the report, the Galaxy S25 FE is likely to be offered in two familiar storage configurations: 8GB RAM with 128GB storage and 8GB RAM with 256GB storage. It suggests that Samsung may not introduce higher storage variants for its Fan Edition this year either. In terms of colours, the phone could be available in Navy, Jet Black, and Icy Blue. The same shades are there on the current Galaxy S25 lineup. However, these colourways were not part of last year's S24 FE range, which indicates a shift toward aligning the Fan Edition's design more closely with the premium S25 series. As per the previous reports, the Galaxy S25 FE is expected to be powered by Samsung's Exynos 2400 chipset, the same processor used in the Galaxy S24 and S24+ models. The smartphone may feature a 6.7-inch Full HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ for added durability. Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S25 FE is largely expected to retain last year's design, but with a shift to Armour Aluminium, and become slimmer and lighter at 7.4mm thick and 190g (down from 8.0mm and 213g). For imaging, the device is expected to feature a 50MP main, 8MP 3x telephoto, and 12MP ultra-wide. However, the selfie camera will reportedly get an upgrade to 12MP, possibly with autofocus. On the software front, the Galaxy S25 FE is expected to ship with One UI 8 based on Android 16 and support seven years of OS updates and security patches. Battery capacity might be bumped to 4,900mAh (up from 4,700mAh), with 45W fast charging, an increase from 25W, while 15W wireless charging is also expected.
