She also called on central banks to "focus heavily on their price stability mandate." Georgieva noted that the global economy is under pressure from high inflation and trade tensions, but growth from AI investment has partially offset the shocks. However, rising bond yields and stalled inflation indicate a high degree of uncertainty about the economic outlook. She stated that the energy shock triggered by the Iran war is not yet over, and the global economy is facing a tug-of-war between "negative supply shocks from the Middle East" and "positive demand shocks from AI." She also warned that energy supply, El Niño weather, and the impact of AI on financial stability remain major risks.British Chancellor of the Exchequer: Supports US efforts to promote a diplomatic solution and welcomes increased pressure on Iran through means such as "economic isolation".

Following the release of the minutes from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), the AUD/JPY pair surged above the 90.30-point critical resistance level. According to the RBA minutes, policymakers actively considered the decision to raise rates further. However, the decision to maintain the status quo was made after the collection of additional data.

 

Citing the resilience of Australia's financial system, RBA policymakers believed that the Board's future cash rate decisions would depend on the global economy, household spending trends, inflation projections, and employment forecasts.

 

Continue to monitor China's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) statistics. Compared to its stagnant performance in the final quarter of CY2022, the Chinese economy is estimated to have grown by 2.2%. Compared to the previous annual growth rate of 2.9%, the current annual growth rate for the economy is 4.0%. Australia is China's greatest trading partner, and stronger Chinese GDP data would strengthen the Australian Dollar.

 

The announcement of the People's Bank of China (PBOC) interest rate decision later this week will be crucial. Last week, the People's Bank of China pledged to provide additional monetary support to spur retail demand. Despite the reopening of China's economy following a period of economic restraint, the country's inflation rate has been consistently declining over the past few months.

 

According to Jiji news and Reuters, the Bank of Japan is reportedly considering a projection for consumer price growth between 1.6% and 1.9% for the 2025 fiscal year, a move seen as preventing market participants from betting on the central bank's departure from stimulus. This has also delayed the possibility of a shift away from an expansionary monetary policy, which cannot be considered until the Japanese inflation rate persists above 2%.
