On April 26, UBS said that the current market thinking is consistent with the banks basic forecast, that is, tariffs will be reduced from the current announced level for the rest of the year, and the Federal Reserve will further cut interest rates this year. However, as uncertainty in trade, economy and Federal Reserve policy remains high, expected volatility also remains high. However, UBS believes that the US stock market is attractive, and the S&P 500 index target continues to be 5,800 points by the end of the year. UBSs current basic forecast is that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 75 to 100 basis points this year, but in the short term, the Feds policy flexibility seems more limited because it must balance concerns about economic growth with the risk of inflation recovery.According to AFP: Senior officials said that Ukrainian President Zelensky and US President Trump may meet in Rome.Spokesman for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has arrived in Rome to attend the Popes funeral.According to the Ukrainian National News Agency: Russian troops launched 414 attacks in the Zaporizhia region at night.Market news: Ukrainian President Zelensky and his wife arrived in Rome.

The GBP/USD pair is struggling to extend advances above the immediate resistance level of 1.2250 in the early Asian session. The Cable had selling pressure while repeatedly overcoming the aforementioned resistance level, but it is currently likely to extend the uptrend due to a significant increase in market participants' risk appetite.

 

A four-day winning streak in the S&P 500 suggests a relatively bullish market sentiment. Investors pour capital into perceived-risk assets while dumping perceived-safety assets. Surprisingly, rates on 10-year US Treasury securities rose to 3.50 percent. The US Dollar Index (DXY) was able to minimize its drop at around 101.76.

 

This week, the Pound Sterling will be affected by the United Kingdom's announcement of inflation data on Wednesday. The headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) (Dec) is anticipated to decline to 10.6% from 10.7% before. While the figures for the core price index, which includes oil and gas prices, may rise from 6.3% to 6.6% over the same time period.

 

It indicates that UK inflation has become more enduring, and the Bank of England (BOE) will be required to continue raising interest rates. Catherine Mann, a member of the BOE, remarked that the central bank need not be concerned about the possibility of overtightening during its interest rate-raising cycle.

 

Investors anticipate the publication of Producer Price Index (PPI) data in the United States. The market expects headline factory gate prices of goods and services to decrease from 7.4% to 6.8% in December. Additionally, the core PPI may fall to 5.9% from 6.2% in a comparable era.
