NASA: Artemis program astronauts have completed half of their lunar mission.According to Irans Mehr News Agency, a missile attack occurred in northern Tehran, resulting in one casualty.On April 4th, it was reported that TrueEV, XPengs exclusive distributor in Australia, entered administration (bankruptcy management) proceedings, drawing attention. XPeng responded that during the past two years of cooperation, it learned through various channels that TrueEV had experienced a broken cash flow and was under the control of its financing party, and had not purchased any vehicles for over a year, failing to fulfill order obligations including 454 cars. TrueEV also had a public business conflict with local dealers, severely damaging the foundation of trust between the two parties. Therefore, in accordance with the cooperation agreement, XPeng formally issued a breach of contract notice to TrueEV, terminating its exclusive distributorship, but retaining its distributorship status. However, TrueEV denied the aforementioned operational problems and instead pursued legal action against XPeng. The Australian court rejected its injunction application on April 1st. XPengs goal going forward is to establish itself in Australia within the next three years as a technology brand that is not only technologically advanced but also trustworthy in terms of user experience.On April 4th, it was reported that the international standard proposal for "DC Filter Capacitors for High Voltage Direct Current Transmission Systems," initiated by my country, was recently approved by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). This standard is the first international standard specifically addressing DC filter capacitors in the field of high voltage direct current transmission, filling a gap in related professional standards. The standard was led by Chinese experts, with participation from experts from Italy, France, Germany, and other countries. The development of this standard will facilitate the sharing of advanced technological concepts of Chinas core high voltage direct current transmission equipment with the world, contributing more Chinese strength to global energy transition and power system upgrading.April 4th - Data released by the General Statistics Office of Vietnam shows that Vietnams economy slowed compared to the previous quarter due to heavy reliance on Middle Eastern oil imports. Vietnams GDP grew by 7.83% in the first quarter, lower than the 8.46% in the fourth quarter of last year. The Vietnamese governments growth target for this year is no less than 10%, but this target is currently under pressure. Vietnam imports over 80% of its crude oil from the Middle East, and oil shipments from the region have been disrupted due to the conflict with Iran. Rising fuel prices have forced Vietnamese airlines to scale back operations and prompted authorities to introduce cost-control measures, including reducing fuel taxes, subsidizing prices through government-controlled funds, and encouraging remote work to reduce consumption.

Because US yields fell overnight in response to the Bank of England's unexpected move to purchase bonds, the USD/JPY fell to 143.90 in late New York trading. As a result, bulls gave up in the last trading days of the month, sending global bond yields lower, stock prices higher, and the US currency plunging. Following a rise from the 144.04 level, the USD/JPY is currently targeting that level again.

 

In its first daily decline since September 19th, the US dollar index (DXY) is up 0.36 percent on the day but has reversed from a 20-year high. The yield on the 10-year gilt dropped over 50 basis points to 4.00% while the yield on the 10-year treasury plummeted 21.4 basis points to 3.733% overnight after the BoE's announcements. In reaction, European stocks increased in value, pushing the S&P 500 up by 2.0%.

 

Beginning September 28th, the central bank has announced that it will initiate short-term purchases of long-term UK government bonds in an effort to restore market equilibrium. BoE said in a statement, "The purchases will be made in whatever quantity is necessary to achieve this aim." After the Old Lady got involved, the yield on the 30-year benchmark gilt dropped by more than 50 basis points, and this was despite the BoE putting most of its attention on the July 2051 bond and buying only GBP1 billion.

 

In the wake of a severe drop, the USD/JPY exchange rate could be heading for a further correction of the rapid increase from 140.35 a week ago. However, USD/JPY has upward potential so long as the policy gap between the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan exists.

 

"The Japanese Ministry of Finance, however, will be aware of the currency's current vulnerability and will likely aim to generate sufficient fear of further intervention to discourage speculators. On the other hand, our goal for the next three months remains USD/JPY147.00 "According to Rabobank research.
