NASA: Artemis program astronauts have completed half of their lunar mission.According to Irans Mehr News Agency, a missile attack occurred in northern Tehran, resulting in one casualty.On April 4th, it was reported that TrueEV, XPengs exclusive distributor in Australia, entered administration (bankruptcy management) proceedings, drawing attention. XPeng responded that during the past two years of cooperation, it learned through various channels that TrueEV had experienced a broken cash flow and was under the control of its financing party, and had not purchased any vehicles for over a year, failing to fulfill order obligations including 454 cars. TrueEV also had a public business conflict with local dealers, severely damaging the foundation of trust between the two parties. Therefore, in accordance with the cooperation agreement, XPeng formally issued a breach of contract notice to TrueEV, terminating its exclusive distributorship, but retaining its distributorship status. However, TrueEV denied the aforementioned operational problems and instead pursued legal action against XPeng. The Australian court rejected its injunction application on April 1st. XPengs goal going forward is to establish itself in Australia within the next three years as a technology brand that is not only technologically advanced but also trustworthy in terms of user experience.On April 4th, it was reported that the international standard proposal for "DC Filter Capacitors for High Voltage Direct Current Transmission Systems," initiated by my country, was recently approved by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). This standard is the first international standard specifically addressing DC filter capacitors in the field of high voltage direct current transmission, filling a gap in related professional standards. The standard was led by Chinese experts, with participation from experts from Italy, France, Germany, and other countries. The development of this standard will facilitate the sharing of advanced technological concepts of Chinas core high voltage direct current transmission equipment with the world, contributing more Chinese strength to global energy transition and power system upgrading.April 4th - Data released by the General Statistics Office of Vietnam shows that Vietnams economy slowed compared to the previous quarter due to heavy reliance on Middle Eastern oil imports. Vietnams GDP grew by 7.83% in the first quarter, lower than the 8.46% in the fourth quarter of last year. The Vietnamese governments growth target for this year is no less than 10%, but this target is currently under pressure. Vietnam imports over 80% of its crude oil from the Middle East, and oil shipments from the region have been disrupted due to the conflict with Iran. Rising fuel prices have forced Vietnamese airlines to scale back operations and prompted authorities to introduce cost-control measures, including reducing fuel taxes, subsidizing prices through government-controlled funds, and encouraging remote work to reduce consumption.

Despite the 5.9% decrease in Australian GDP, the AUD/JPY crosses 91.70

The AUD/JPY pair has surpassed the crucial barrier level of 91.70 despite a weaker-than-anticipated Australian Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The annual GDP results were 5.9% instead of the expected 6.3% and the previously reported 3.6%. While quarterly GDP data was reported at 0.6% rather than the 0.7% forecast and 0.9% that had previously been made public.

 

Weaker-than-anticipated Australian GDP numbers will help the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) achieve its goal of establishing price stability. After the RBA increased its Official Cash Rate (OCR) by 25 basis points for the third consecutive day on Tuesday, the cross remained extremely volatile (bps). Australia's interest rates are now 3.10 percent as a result of this. The 25 basis point hike in interest rates was decided upon in accordance with forecasts.

 

RBA Governor Philip Lowe thinks that further tightening of monetary policy is imminent in terms of interest rate guidance. The RBA is not in a rush to stop raising interest rates because the current inflation rate of 6.9% is significantly higher than the target rate of 2%, and additional policy tightening cannot be ruled out.

 

Investors will pay special attention this week when the Consumer Price Index (CPI) numbers for China are released on Friday. The annual CPI is predicted to drop significantly from the previous reading of 2.1% to 1.0%. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) might be forced to further ease monetary policy as a result of this. As China's largest trading partner, Australia will benefit from China's monetary easing by strengthening the Australian Dollar.

 

Investors in the Japanese yen are waiting for the GDP report on Thursday. Compared to the earlier contraction of 1.2%, it is predicted that the economic data will fall by 1.1%. Although the quarterly data is anticipated to decrease by 0.3%, similar to the previous release, it is more likely to decrease by 0.2%.
