The ECB does not provide forward guidance, so it will not reveal its plans for July. However, the rapid decline in oil prices has provided some relief and puts the ECB in a more advantageous position regarding interest rates. Mohelan also stated that the ECBs 2.25% interest rate is "very low" compared to other central banks, and the June rate hike was "reasonable" under any circumstances. He further pointed out that the ECBs communication at the time indicated that this rate hike was not the start of a new tightening cycle.German Chancellor Merz spoke by phone with Ukrainian President Zelensky to discuss Russian airstrikes on Kyiv and other parts of Ukraine.July 4 - From today (July 4) to the 6th, public farewell and memorial services for the late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei will be held in Tehran, the capital of Iran.

Australia's Retail Sales on Wednesday morning favored buyers, keeping the AUD/NZD high at 1.1430. By doing so, the cross-currency pair is ignoring bad news out of China and recession worries, and is instead pushing toward Monday's nine-year high.

 

The Australian currency (AUD) appreciated as a result of the 0.6% month-over-month increase in retail sales in Australia, which beat both the 0.4% forecast and the 1.2% increase seen in the previous month (RBA).

 

The latest statements made by Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) Governor Adrian Orr and New Zealand's Finance Minister (FinMin) Grant Robertson on Tuesday also supported AUD/NZD buyers.

 

RBNZ governor Orr said the central bank still had some work to do, but that the tightening cycle was reasonably far along. Following in his footsteps are "As of right now, the worldwide economy is a tough place to be. The crisis in Ukraine and other issues in Europe and China are obvious examples." During an interview with New Zealand's government-run TVNZ, Grant Robertson, the country's finance minister, reportedly made the following remarks, as reported by Reuters.

 

The AUD/NZD bulls appear to be facing the strongest pressure from apprehensions about the European energy crisis and China's zero-covid policy. The World Bank's (WB) gloomy economic forecasts for China and allegations that the dragon nation invited important market players to safeguard stocks revealed cracks in the economy of Australia's biggest customer.
