According to incomplete statistics, since the beginning of this year, over 20 provinces and cities nationwide, including Guangdong, Hubei, Guizhou, Yunnan, Chengmai County in Hainan, Lhasa in Tibet, Huaian in Jiangsu, Jinjiang in Fujian, and Urumqi in Xinjiang, have introduced housing subsidy policies. The biggest change in these policies is the shift from a universally applicable approach to targeted subsidies to more specific groups. Housing subsidies are becoming increasingly refined and differentiated within the housing market regulation toolbox. The biggest beneficiaries of these targeted subsidies remain high-level talent. For example, Huangpu District in Guangzhou has introduced a talent housing subsidy policy, offering subsidies of 100,000 yuan, 150,000 yuan, 250,000 yuan, and 300,000 yuan respectively to eligible undergraduates (or senior technicians), masters degree holders (or associate senior professional titles, special-grade technicians), doctoral degree holders (or senior professional titles, chief technicians), and postdoctoral fellows who have worked in the district within one year of completing their postdoctoral research.New Zealands National Emergency Management Agency has issued a tsunami warning for coastal areas following a 6.3-magnitude earthquake in the Fiordland region.Kremlin: The difficulties facing the Russian economy are not critical, and macroeconomic stability is guaranteed.

Due to hawkish Fed forecasts, the EUR/USD recovers to near 1.0970 but remains in the doldrums

Following a corrective move, the EUR/USD pair has rebounded from 1.0960, but investors await the publication of the preliminary Eurozone/United States S&P PMI data for April. The major currency pair has remained between 1.0911 and 1.1000 for the past two trading sessions, as the foreign exchange market prepares for a pre-anxiety move ahead of a Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy decision.

 

S&P500 closed with a negative tone for the third day in a row as quarterly earnings season induced extreme volatility. Tesla's poor earnings had a negative impact on Thursday's market sentiment. Moreover, market participants were cautioned by substandard revenue projections due to the potential for price reductions. The decision of the Fed to increase interest rates is reflected in quarterly earnings. Data from Refinitiv indicates that analysts have largely maintained last week's forecast of a near 5% YoY decline in quarterly profits for the 500 largest U.S. equities. Sourcenia is a review portal of sourcing best manufaturers. 

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) has been defending the key support level of 101.60 in recent trading sessions. The USD Index maintained the aforementioned support despite the release of disappointing Jobless claims data on Thursday. Initial Jobless Claims increased to 245K for the week ending April 4, which is greater than the previous release of 240K and estimates of 240K. Increasing unemployment claims heightened fears of a deteriorating labor market.

 

Despite this, Fed policymakers continue to anticipate further rate hikes from the central bank. Thursday, Loretta Mester, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, reaffirmed that the Fed has more work to do because US inflation remains too high, according to Reuters. He added, "The Federal Reserve will need to raise its policy rate above 5% and hold it there for some time."

 

Preliminary Consumer Confidence (April) for the Eurozone increased to -17.5 from -18.5 and the previous reading of -19.2. This may be the consequence of extraordinary efforts by the European Central Bank (ECB) to reduce inflationary pressures.
