The Fujian Provincial Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters terminated its typhoon emergency response at 3 PM on the 5th.

According to US sources on September 4th, several US officials, after reviewing the latest intelligence assessment report, disclosed that the report shows that after months of fighting, Iran has a clearer understanding of its own "military strength" and is more convinced of the importance of the Strait of Hormuz. It is understood that, currently, although Iran is under dual military and economic pressure from the US, there is no indication that Iran intends to reach any form of agreement with the US. If Iran is attacked again, its reaction may be similar to before, namely, retaliating against US military bases and other targets in the Middle East. Some US officials believe that Iran may be trying to delay the war at least until the US midterm elections in November, and that Iran believes the US military is unable to launch a large-scale strike due to depleted weapons stockpiles.

The AUD/JPY exchange rate fluctuates below 90.00 as investors await BoJ action

In the early Asian session, the AUD/JPY currency pair is bouncing violently in a narrow range below the resistance level of 90.00. Before the Bank of Japan introduces its first monetary policy of CY2023, the risk barometer indicates a sideways auction (BoJ). The AUD/JPY exchange rate reflects the consolidation of the AUD/USD, indicating an uncertain risk profile.

 

Investors anticipate that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will not alter its policy stance on Friday, as doing so would increase financial market risk and hinder efforts to boost inflation. Previously, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) announced that the central bank will review the negative side effects of the decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy, generating the impression that the central bank is eager to abandon the easy policy.

 

The experts at Standard Charted expect the Bank of Japan to hold both the policy balance rate and the 10-year yield goal at their present levels of -0.1% and 0%, respectively. The recent decision to expand the 10-year JGB band to +/-50 bps (from +/-25 bps) will be evaluated by policymakers at the December meeting.

 

The replacement of current Governor of the Bank of Japan Haruhiko Kuroda will be widely followed. The next BoJ governor nominee is anticipated to be presented to the Japanese parliament on February 10, Reuters reported on Tuesday. Amamiya, Nakaso, and Yamaguchi are regarded as leading C.banking candidates.

 

Thursday is the expected publication date for Australian employment statistics, which investors are monitoring. The Unemployment Rate is expected to remain constant at 3.4%, according to the majority of economists. Aside from this, the Australian economy must have added 22,500 new jobs to the labor market in December, a down from the prior rises of 64K.
