from Squawk Box Europe Express

The Federal Reserve leaves rates unchanged with its fight against inflation faltering. Chairman Jerome Powell has signalled any return to rate hikes would be ‘unlikely’. Asia-focused bank Standard Chartered beats expectations to post a 5.5 per cent increase in Q1 pre-tax profit, benefiting from higher trading income. Qualcomm shares are up in extended trade as Chinese demand fuels an earnings beat. Meanwhile, Apple is expecting a double-digit decline in China sales when it reports later today. And in currency news, the yen soars to its strongest level in a fortnight before paring gains back, prompting further speculation the BoJ will intervene.
