On September 19th, the German government announced on the 18th that it had reached an agreement with the federal states on a package of tax relief measures, including a new round of fuel tax cuts and a fuel price cap, to alleviate the pressure on residents and businesses caused by persistently high fuel prices. According to the plan, the German government will reduce the energy tax, resulting in an actual reduction of approximately 17 euro cents per liter for gasoline and diesel. The measures are scheduled to be implemented by October 1st and will continue until the end of this year, with a total tax reduction of approximately 2.5 billion euros. This fuel tax cut is similar to the temporary measures implemented in May and June this year, which were expected to reduce tax revenue by 1.6 billion euros this year.On September 19th, Li Xunlei, Chief Economist of Zhongtai International, stated at the Tsinghua PBC School of Finance Chief Economist Forum that global economic imbalances are difficult to avoid; imbalance is the norm, and balance is temporary. Over time, any system will inevitably lead to imbalances; no system is perfect, therefore continuous reform and adjustment are necessary. Currently, in my countrys dual circulation economic model, the international circulation is relatively smooth, but the domestic circulation is not, and the latter is a problem that urgently needs to be addressed. Regarding smoothing the domestic circulation, Li Xunlei suggested promoting fiscal and tax reforms to increase the central governments financial resources. "Facts have shown that over the years, the efficiency of local government debt has been low. my countrys institutional advantages have not been well reflected in the fiscal and tax field. Promoting fiscal and tax reforms can greatly enhance fiscal support for investment and consumption," Li Xunlei said.Saudi Arabias Civil Defense Ministry announced that the alert for the Riyadh and Khairji areas has been lifted.Saudi Arabias civil defense has issued a warning of potential dangers in the Khairji region.Saudi Arabias civil defense has issued a warning about potential dangers in the Saudi capital, Riyadh.

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.
