Oil prices have fallen back significantly. Iraqs Deputy Minister of Oil said on Sunday that once oil transportation resumes, Iraq will export 185,000 barrels per day from oil fields in the Kurdish region through the Iraq-Turkey pipeline, and gradually increase to 400,000 barrels per day. All procedures for resuming pipeline exports have been completed, which may resolve a dispute that has disrupted the flow of crude oil for nearly two years. However, resuming pipeline transportation may put Iraq in a dilemma. On the one hand, it has to cut production, and on the other hand, Trump called on OPEC+ to lower oil prices. In addition, the President of Ukraine said that he is willing to resign as president if it can bring peace, and pay attention to the acceleration of the Russian-Ukrainian negotiations. In the short term, oil prices are still volatile, and the focus is on the supply side.Hong Kong stocks Hang Seng Index and Hang Seng Tech Index both turned positive, after the Hang Seng Tech Index had previously fallen rapidly by more than 1%.

The AUD / JPY pair has moved its auction below 91.50 during the early Asian session. The risk barometer is confronting offers while attempting a recovery, and it is anticipated that its decline will continue to around 91.30. Despite increasing likelihood of a hawkish monetary policy from the Reserve Bank of Australia, the cross shows no signs of recovery (RBA).

 

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for January showed a significant deceleration, but not enough for the RBA to suspend its policy tightening.

 

GDP increased by 0.5% in the fourth quarter, which was less than the consensus estimate of 0.8% and the previous release of 0.7%.

 

Analysts at SocGen believe that "recent signals in the macroeconomic data, such as the decline in inflation, the revival in the unemployment rate, relatively tepid wage growth, and the confirmation of a decline in consumption, all support a 25 basis point increase in March." Despite the markets' more pessimistic view of US Fed policy, they sustain our baseline scenario of a terminal policy rate of 3.85%.

 

, The annualized GDP data indicate that the Japanese economy has expanded by 0.8%, which is 0.8% more than the previous expansion of 0.6%. While it is expected that the quarterly statistics will show a steady growth of0.2%, it is anticipated that the yearly growth rate will be 0.4%.
