On March 29, the Wall Street Journal quoted a spokesman for the US Strategic Command as saying that several B-2 stealth bombers had flown from a base in Missouri to the US military base on Diego Garcia Island in the central Indian Ocean this week. Several strategic transport aircraft and refueling aircraft also arrived at the same time as the B-2 bombers. Diego Garcia Island is located at the junction of many routes in the Indian Ocean and has a very important strategic position. During World War II, it was a British air force base and an important naval port. After the United Kingdom and the United States signed an agreement in 1966, the United States leased Diego Garcia Island from the United Kingdom and established a large airport in the west of the island, which became an important base for the United States in the Indian Ocean. During the Gulf War, the Afghanistan War and the initial stage of the Iraq War, the US military launched air operations from Diego Garcia many times.March 29th news, On March 29th, at the 2025 Suzhou Sushang Conference, the "Suzhou City 2025 Action Plan for Optimizing the Business Environment" was officially released.

Following the release of the minutes from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), the AUD/JPY pair surged above the 90.30-point critical resistance level. According to the RBA minutes, policymakers actively considered the decision to raise rates further. However, the decision to maintain the status quo was made after the collection of additional data.

 

Citing the resilience of Australia's financial system, RBA policymakers believed that the Board's future cash rate decisions would depend on the global economy, household spending trends, inflation projections, and employment forecasts.

 

Continue to monitor China's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) statistics. Compared to its stagnant performance in the final quarter of CY2022, the Chinese economy is estimated to have grown by 2.2%. Compared to the previous annual growth rate of 2.9%, the current annual growth rate for the economy is 4.0%. Australia is China's greatest trading partner, and stronger Chinese GDP data would strengthen the Australian Dollar.

 

The announcement of the People's Bank of China (PBOC) interest rate decision later this week will be crucial. Last week, the People's Bank of China pledged to provide additional monetary support to spur retail demand. Despite the reopening of China's economy following a period of economic restraint, the country's inflation rate has been consistently declining over the past few months.

 

According to Jiji news and Reuters, the Bank of Japan is reportedly considering a projection for consumer price growth between 1.6% and 1.9% for the 2025 fiscal year, a move seen as preventing market participants from betting on the central bank's departure from stimulus. This has also delayed the possibility of a shift away from an expansionary monetary policy, which cannot be considered until the Japanese inflation rate persists above 2%.
