On June 13, European Central Bank Governing Council member and Bundesbank President Jean-Claude Nagel stated in an interview with German radio that even if the war with Iran ends quickly, prices may remain high for a longer period. Nagel said, "We may not even be able to return to the data levels we were based on before the conflict, because supply chains have clearly changed, and risk premiums may have increased." He was referring to the premiums that might be required for transporting goods through the Strait of Hormuz. Nagel stated, "I almost doubt we will ever return to the state before this regional conflict." The world "may continue to be affected by uncertainties and changes beyond the conflict." He indicated that interest rate hikes in the short term would make "refinancing" more expensive. "But in the long run, by clearly defining price stability as part of (economic health), we are making the greatest contribution to the economy."Market news: Indias pollution regulator has found that Tata Groups iPhone component factory has contaminated groundwater in nearby farmland.Market news: Irans Chief Justice stated that the confrontation between Tehran and the United States and its allies will not end, and warned people not to trust Washington on the occasion of the 12-day war anniversary.Iranian Parliament National Security Committee Chairman Ibrahim Aziz: A proposed bill on the management of the Strait of Hormuz will cover transit rules and the rights of the Iranian people.On June 13, an official from the State Internet Information Office answered reporters questions regarding the "Guidelines." Currently, the financial information service sector is developing in an orderly manner, with data volume expanding and flow becoming more frequent, necessitating standardized management through classification and grading. To implement legal and regulatory requirements, the State Internet Information Office, the Peoples Bank of China, and five other departments jointly formulated and issued the "Guidelines," aiming to provide systematic, targeted, and operational guidance for financial information service institutions to conduct data classification and grading work, standardize financial information service data processing activities, improve data security, and promote the legal, rational, and effective use of data. Regarding data classification, the "Guidelines" categorize financial information service data according to its business attributes. The primary classification includes three categories: business data, user data, and enterprise data. These are further subdivided into nine secondary categories and 67 tertiary categories.

AUD/USD falls approaching 0.7200 despite the former RBA governor's aggressive forecasts

Bears and buyers continue to fight for position around 0.7220-25 as sentiment is mixed and investors remain cautious ahead of the week's big data/events. In doing so, the Australian duo struggles to defend the hawkish remarks of former Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Governor Ian Macfarlane.

 

Ex-RBA Governor Macfarlane warned early Wednesday morning about chronically rising inflation and the need to drastically increase interest rates. The former policymaker also stated, "There is sufficient scarcity in Australia and the United States to maintain a high inflation rate."

 

In contrast, China's Vice Commerce Minister Wang Shouwen joined China's Vice Finance Minister Zou Jiayi in reiterating concerns about a global economic downturn and a decline in demand. Recent consensus among policymakers held that the rise of global demand is slowing.

 

It's worth noting that a rebound in US Treasury rates and apprehension ahead of Thursday's European Central Bank (ECB) meeting, as well as Friday's US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for May, tend to stifle the AUD/USD pair's movements.

 

In spite of this, 10-year US Treasury note rates jump two basis points (bps) to 2.99 percent the day after breaking a six-day downward trend. A record decline in the US trade deficit and optimism on the US budget appear to have prompted a recall of US Treasury bond sellers. The US trade deficit for April decreased 19.1 percent from the previous day to USD87.1 billion.

 

Other market optimists were defended by US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and optimism for a quicker economic rebound in China. Tuesday, US Treasury Secretary Yellen spoke before the Senate Finance Committee about the Fiscal Year 2023 Budget while stating that the US economy faced problems from "unsustainable levels of inflation" and supply chain disruptions. The official said, "An adequate budget is necessary to support the Fed's efforts to control inflation without damaging the labor market."

 

It should be noted that World Bank (WB) President David Malpass's warning that faster-than-anticipated tightening might force certain nations into a debt crisis akin to that of the 1980s appears to have impacted on the quotation as of late. The risk-negative news from Ukraine may follow a similar trajectory. Politico reported that Ukraine has not yet achieved a deal with Russia or Turkey to enable the safe passage of its grain ships in the Black Sea, casting doubt on a U.N. initiative to build a crucial food corridor.

Technical Evaluation

A two-week-old support line protects AUD/USD buyers at 0.7205. However, the 200-day moving average and the recent top, located around 0.7255 and 0.7285, may challenge the Aussie pair's upside before the bulls regain control.
