On April 6, according to the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Bagheei stated that Tehran has finalized its demands in the context of recent proposals to end the war, but will only announce them at an appropriate time, emphasizing that Iran will not succumb to pressure. He stated, "A few days ago, they put forward some proposals through intermediaries, and this 15-point US plan was conveyed through Pakistan and some other friendly countries." He added, "Such proposals are extremely ambitious, unusual, and illogical." He stressed that Iran has its own framework. "Based on our own interests and our considerations, we have compiled and formulated a series of demands that we have put forward in the past and present." He also denied that contact with mediators meant weakness. "The fact that Iran has quickly and bravely expressed its position on a proposal should not be seen as a sign of surrendering to the enemy."A spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry said on the 6th that Iran is prepared to respond to the mediators and will provide timely updates if necessary.Kazakhstans Ministry of Energy: The attack on the Russian port of Novorossiysk did not affect Kazakhstans oil exports.On March 31, it was announced that the GF Dow Jones U.S. Oil Exploration and Production Index Securities Investment Fund (QDII-LOF) (Fund Code: 162719, Stock Exchange Abbreviation: Oil LOF) managed by GF Fund Management Co., Ltd. will be suspended from trading from the opening of the market on April 7, 2026 until 10:30 on the same day, and will resume trading at 10:30 on April 7, 2026.Fitch has placed Qatar Bank on its negative rating watch list.

The USD/JPY pair has gradually retraced approaching the crucial support level of 132.00 in the early Asian session. Following a big increase to approximately 132.70, the asset is seeing weak selling pressure. The major may resume its ascent despite the risk-on market mentality, as the Bank of Japan (BOJ) has supported greater policy easing to bolster wages.

 

As the Federal Reserve (Fed) is projected to lower the rate of interest rate hikes, the S&P500 exhibited a stronger recovery on Wednesday following a two-day fall.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) dropped sharply below 104.00 as an adjustment to the Fed's sluggish pace of policy tightening anticipated a reduction in the US price index for goods and services. In addition, the yield on US Treasury bonds has increased due to the majority of Fed policymakers' support for a slower rate of interest rate increases. The yield on 10-year US Treasuries has declined to approximately 3.69 percent.

 

Investors will await the release of the United States Automatic Data Processing (ADP) Employment Change (Dec), which is projected to be 150K, up from the previous release of 127K.

The US Institute of Supply Management's (ISM) report of a decline in manufacturing activity and the Federal Reserve's decision to increase interest rates increase predictions of a slowed employment creation process.

 

After BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda pushed for greater policy easing to drive the wage price index in order to meet higher inflation projections for CY2023 and CY2024, the Japanese yen experienced a strong fall in Tokyo.
