On April 20th, iQiyi announced that over 100 artists had agreed to join its professional-grade film and television production platform, NaDou Pro, in its artist database. This announcement quickly propelled "iQiyi is going crazy" to the top of Weibos trending topics. Users questioned whether the platform had generated AI video content without the artists AI authorization, and several artists denied signing any AI-related authorizations. This afternoon, iQiyi CEO Gong Yu responded to the controversy, stating that the artists listed in iQiyis NaDou artist database only expressed interest in participating in AI production; they had not actually agreed to participate in any specific AI project. Furthermore, the database did not include artists like Zhang Ruoyun and Yu Hewei, as mentioned by some media outlets. He explained that iQiyi NaDou Pros business model aims to seamlessly transfer the relationships between real-world artist management companies and production projects to AI production, giving artists decision-making power over their roles in projects.Deutsche Bank CEO and Chairman of the German Banking Association, Sewing: If the war with Iran continues, the German economy may experience another year of stagnation.According to the Shanghai Stock Exchange website, the IPO review status of Chongqing Zhenbao Technology Co., Ltd. has changed to registration effective.Deutsche Bank CEO and Chairman of the German Banking Association, Sewing: Energy prices will remain high.April 20th - The European Union will propose measures to optimize the allocation of aviation fuel among member states and assist in finding alternative supply sources. Draft documents indicate that the European Commission will announce these measures on Wednesday, with the earliest possible release next month. The EU relies on imports for approximately 40% of its aviation fuel, half of which is imported via the Strait of Hormuz. While the EU expects sufficient aviation fuel in April to avoid shortages, supply pressures will intensify as the closure of key air routes extends. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines announced last week that it will cancel 80 flights to and from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport over the next month due to rising costs.

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.
