Market news: Two officials from the Venezuelan Central Bank resigned, and President Maduro included gold in his reserves.On April 4, well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that the new tariff policy will undoubtedly have a negative impact on Apple, but Apple is not helpless. In the US market, new high-end iPhones account for 65-70%, and high-end users are relatively willing to accept Apples price increases. In addition, Apple has many ways to pass on tariff costs to reduce consumers negative perception of price increases, such as cooperating with telecom operators to increase subsidies and reduce discounts for Trade In exchange plans. Another way is to increase bargaining power on the supply chain. It is expected that most of Apples supply chain will face greater pressure to bargain. If Apples gross profit margin falls below 40% due to tariffs, this should be a temporary phenomenon, and it should still be able to maintain above 40% in the long run.Japans total household spending in February was 3.5% month-on-month, in line with expectations of 0.5% and the previous value of -4.5%.Japans all household spending in February was -0.5% year-on-year, in line with expectations of -1.7% and the previous value of 0.80%.On April 4, Dmitriev, president of the Russian Direct Investment Fund and special representative of the Russian President for foreign investment and economic cooperation, summarized the results of the talks with US government representatives in Washington and said that the idea that Ukraine cannot join NATO has been widely recognized, including by the US President Trumps administration.

The AUD/NZD exchange rate dropped from 1.0500 to 1.0400, and has since been trading sideways. For the asset to record a new weekly bottom, the kiwi bulls would have to push the cross below the immediate support of 1.0300. Bullish expectations for the New Zealand dollar were supported by the publication of a strong Business New Zealand PMI.

 

Greater than both the predicted 52.5 and the prior figure of 50, the Business NZ PMI has now reached 52.7. Because of this, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) will be pleased with its efforts to reduce inflation. The RBNZ's monetary policy meeting next week will result in an interest rate announcement. The Official Cash Rate (OCR) is expected to be increased by Governor Adrian Orr for the fourth time in a row, by 50 basis points (bps). The OCR will go up to 3% after a comparable notification is made.

 

An OCR hike by the RBNZ to 4.00% by mid-2023 is predicted by a Reuters poll. It is forecasted that inflation will drop to levels below the 2%-3% target during the first half of 2023. At last, the RBNZ's goal of price stability appears to be within reach.

 

There was little relief for the Aussie bulls despite statistics showing that Australian consumers expect inflation to be lower than it actually is. The Reserve Bank of Australia will become less hawkish if the Australian Consumer Inflation Predictions, which reflect consumer predictions of future inflation over the next 12 months, fall.
