On December 22nd, Baowu Magnesium Industry stated during a targeted survey that since the release of the new national standard, upstream and downstream companies in the electric vehicle industry chain have quickly taken action to actively initiate the replacement of plastic parts with magnesium alloys. It is expected that during the 15th Five-Year Plan period, the use of magnesium in electric two-wheelers will continue to increase rapidly. Currently, many electric bicycle companies have begun to actively adopt magnesium alloy materials. Industry leaders such as Aima, Yadea, and Niu have already used magnesium alloys to manufacture wheel hubs, frames, and other components in some models. Judging from the companys orders, the use of magnesium alloys in two-wheeled electric vehicles is increasing rapidly, a trend driven by the new national standard policy, lightweighting requirements, and technological advancements. With increased penetration and expanded application components, even greater growth is expected in the coming years, indicating a broad market prospect.AstraZeneca: Enhertu receives Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of early breast cancer following neoadjuvant therapy.Huabao New Energy stated on its interactive platform that its portable energy storage products can charge new energy vehicles.

In ahead of US NFP and Eurozone Inflation data, EUR/USD seeks a range break near 1.0600

During the Asian session, the EUR/USD pair attempted to break out of the consolidation range it formed above the round-level support of 1.0600. Given the risk-on market mentality, it is expected that the major currency pair will continue its upward trend.

 

In Asia, S&P500 futures are indicating a modest retracement, but the overall risk profile remains sturdy following Wednesday's strong advances. The US Dollar Index (DXY) is languishing below 104.00 and is likely to continue on edge as further reduction of inflation expectations in the United States is expected to keep safe-haven assets under pressure in the short term.

 

According to the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes, all Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers favored a more gradual rate of policy tightening. For Fed members to abandon their hawkish view on monetary policy, greater evidence of inflation moderation is required.

 

According to Reuters, the president of the Minneapolis Fed, Neel Kashkari, emphasized on Wednesday that the Fed must avoid hastily lowering the policy rate and reigniting inflation. In order to attain the inflation target of 2%, he suggested that the interest rate should peak at approximately 5.4% and then remain stable.

 

This week, investors will closely monitor the second catalyst considered by the Federal Reserve when crafting monetary policy. Friday's Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) are projected to be 200K, a decrease from the previous report's 263K. In addition, investors will pay attention to the Average Hourly Earnings (Dec) data, which is expected to be 5% lower. Given that consumers will continue to have more discretionary spending, a rise in wage expenses may cause the Consumer Price Index to grow (CPI).

 

Investors anticipate the release of the Eurozone's Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) on Friday. According to the consensus, the headline HICP is projected to decrease from 10.1% to 9.7%. Consensus has diminished as a result of falling energy prices and the government's one-time reimbursement of family energy expenses. Certainly, the European Central Bank (ECB) will be fascinated by this in the future.
