Shinji Kiyomoto, the agencys Earthquake and Tsunami Countermeasures Planning Officer, urged the public, "In areas where tsunami warnings have been issued, there is danger in the sea and near the coast. Please stay away from the shore. As tidal currents will remain relatively strong, please do not go into the sea or approach the coast until the warning is lifted." Kiyomoto also pointed out at the press conference, "Since the 7.5 magnitude earthquake that occurred late on December 8th off the coast of Aomori Prefecture, seismic activity in the surrounding area has become more active and the area of activity has continued to expand. This earthquake occurred on the eastern side of this active area. Since December 8th, several earthquakes of around magnitude 6 have occurred in the relevant sea areas, and this earthquake is one of them. Therefore, the Japan Meteorological Agency believes that seismic activity remains active."December 12th, Futures.com analysts latest view: WTI crude oil futures have recently continued their upward trend in intraday trading, attempting to recover some of the previous losses. Crude oil prices had previously reached clearly oversold levels, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) began to send positive signals, indicating that crude oil prices had entered an exciting phase, resulting in a limited intraday rebound. Despite the recovery, crude oil prices remain under significant downward pressure as they stabilize below the EMA50, further solidifying the short-term downtrend, especially given that it is trading along a steep secondary downtrend line. Therefore, unless prices can overcome these headwinds, the gains may still be limited.December 12th, Futures News: Economies.com analysts latest view: Spot gold has slightly declined in recent intraday trading, consolidating its previous strong gains and attempting to build upward momentum to pave the way for a new round of upward attempts. Previously, gold broke through the key resistance level of $4245, a potential target in our previous analysis. Gold is currently finding support as it continues to trade above the 50-day moving average, which strengthens the positive pressure in the short term. Despite being overbought, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also showing positive signals, and the upward trend remains dominant in the short term, continuing to trade along the supporting secondary trendline.

AUD/JPY Establishes over 90.00 as RBA Favors Gradual Balance Sheet Easing Program

The AUD/JPY pair has showed a sharper upward move after being underwhelming in the early Tokyo session. The risk barometer stayed in a modest range of 90.18-90.44 and now has surged significantly to around 90.60 after Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA)’s Christopher Kent said that the central bank is in no haste to kick-start its balance sheet reduction operation.

 

The current spike in the price pressure caused the RBA to boost its interest rate by 25 basis points (bps) for the very first time since the Covid-19 epidemic in May’s monetary policy statement. The action was absolutely unexpected since the RBA did emphasize in its comments that the central bank is not seeing rate rises sooner.

 

As RBA has pushed up its rate cycle, the market investors started expecting that the RBA will also commence its balance sheet reduction program to speed up the inflation-controlling procedure. Now, the RBA has indicated that the central bank is in no mood to bank upon quantitatively easing forcefully.

 

RBA Christopher Kent ordered that the Bank would continue to be able to maintain effective control over the cash rate as it withdraws monetary policy stimulus in the term ahead,' as per Reuters.

 

Meanwhile, higher-than-anticipated inflation data in Tokyo are expected to limit the sheer quantity of stimulus packages supplied by the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to accelerate the growth rate. Annual Japan’s National Consumer Price Index (CPI) number at 2.5 percent , much higher than the expectations of 1.5 percent and the earlier print of 1.2.
