In particular, the snow depth in Suoyu, Aomori Prefecture reached 3.7 meters on the 10th. Due to the snowfall, some sections of Japans highways were closed, and some Shinkansen trains were suspended or delayed.British Chancellor of the Exchequer Reeves: The fiscal rules set in the October budget are "non-negotiable". Global financial markets have undoubtedly changed.On January 11, Mitsubishi Motors President Takao Kato was interviewed on January 10. Regarding whether to join the management merger consultation between Honda and Nissan, he said "this is one of the options." Speaking of the envisioned benefits, Kato Takao said "We can actively get help in the North American business (where Mitsubishi Motors has no production base)." Kato Takao also pointed out that in terms of in-vehicle software development, "there will also be scenarios where the technical strength of the two companies will be utilized, which will be very beneficial."

The team believes that the highlight of this time is the recovery of the service industry. The service industry has added 231,000 jobs, which has become the main driving force. Judging from the market reaction, the unexpected non-farm data has pushed the US Treasury bond interest rate and the US dollar to a new high, which is also in line with its judgment since the fourth quarter of last year: it believes that the US dollar is still strong and that interest rate cuts should be "done in reverse". When the interest rate cut is realized, it will be the low point of the US Treasury bond interest rate, rather than continuing to look at the recession and the starting point of the downward interest rate.German Geoscience Research Center GFZ: A 5.5-magnitude earthquake occurred in Ethiopia.

The National Bureau of Statistics of China is scheduled to issue the Chinese Consumer Price Index and Producer Price Index at 01:30 GMT on Monday.

 

Meanwhile, the economic toll imposed by the coronavirus will be a source of concern for financial markets. Since 28 March, Shanghai has been in lockdown. The city of 26 million residents reported 1,006 confirmed infections and nearly 24,000 asymptomatic cases in the preceding 24 hours, compared to China's total of 23,107 on April 7. Indeed, Omricon is projected to have a significant impact on China's economy. The most current hard data on China's economy are from January and February, which are out of date in light of the Ukraine war, soaring oil prices, and a fresh batch of covid-19 cases.

What is AUD's Reaction Likely to Be?

The price of AUD, which is used as a proxy for Chinese economic events, would come under pressure if the Chinese economy's outlook deteriorated. Today's statistics could be detrimental to the Australian dollar due to the potential of stagflation. Inflation in China has remained subdued thus far this year, with enterprises being burdened by persistently high PPI and rising raw material prices, while the low CPI figure reflects the country's current weak domestic demand. On Monday, the AUD/USD is already under pressure, down 0.2 percent with 30 minutes remaining till the release of the report.

Concerning the China CPI

China's National Bureau of Statistics publishes the Consumer Price Index. It is a metric for the range in retail prices across a representative basket of products and services. The outcome is a thorough summary of the findings from the urban and rural consumer price indices. Inflation erodes the CNY's purchasing power.

 

The CPI is a critical statistic for determining inflation and changes in consumer spending trends. A significant increase in the consumer price index indicates that inflation has become a destabilizing element in the economy, causing the People's Bank of China to tighten monetary policy and increase fiscal policy risk. In general, a high reading is considered beneficial (or bullish) for the CNY, while a low reading is considered negative (or bearish).
