Hang Seng Index futures closed down 0.8% at 24,701 points in overnight trading, a discount of 253 points.Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi spoke with the Saudi Foreign Minister to discuss regional stability issues.On September 11, the Algerian Ministry of Defense announced that, effective from midnight on September 11, all civilian and military aircraft registered in the United Arab Emirates (including inbound and outbound flights) would be prohibited from entering Algerian airspace. However, commercial flights operated by the United Arab Emirates to and from Algiers Houari Boumediene International Airport are exempt and can continue operating until the end of 2026 (the expiration date of existing contracts). Earlier that day, the Algerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the country had decided to sever diplomatic relations with the United Arab Emirates, effective immediately.On September 11, it was reported that on the morning of September 10 local time, certain members of the UN Security Council, disregarding the significant differences remaining within the Council on related issues, insisted on pushing for the reinstatement of sanctions against Iran and for the Council to hold a meeting on an agenda that had already been terminated. Sun Lei, Chinas Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, expressed serious concern and strong opposition to this in his statement. Sun Lei pointed out that currently, the US is intensifying unilateral sanctions against Iran, launching a new round of military strikes against Iran, and engaging in mutual attacks between the US and Iran, leading to renewed tensions in the region and severely hindering efforts by all parties to promote peace talks. China is highly concerned and deeply worried about this situation and calls on the US to commit to refraining from military action and to engage in sincere negotiations with Iran. The parties involved should abandon the use of force or the threat of force, and push the Iranian nuclear issue back onto the track of political and diplomatic resolution, seeking the greatest common denominator that takes into account the reasonable demands of all parties, such as achieving a comprehensive and lasting ceasefire, reaching a peace agreement, and resolving the Iranian nuclear issue through political and diplomatic means.On September 11th, according to the Wall Street Journal, Nvidia (NVDA.O) CEO Jensen Huang responded to questions about Nvidias financing arrangements for data center and AI infrastructure projects at a Goldman Sachs conference. When asked whether these investments constituted revolving financing, Huang stated, "I put in $1 and eventually get $100 back. Is that revolving?" He called the deals a "very smart strategy" that helps Nvidia build distribution channels for its technology architecture. Huang emphasized that Nvidias funding for data center projects and AI infrastructure is not a simple money loop, but rather a means to drive the adoption of its architecture in the market.

In the early Asian session, the AUD/JPY currency pair is bouncing violently in a narrow range below the resistance level of 90.00. Before the Bank of Japan introduces its first monetary policy of CY2023, the risk barometer indicates a sideways auction (BoJ). The AUD/JPY exchange rate reflects the consolidation of the AUD/USD, indicating an uncertain risk profile.

 

Investors anticipate that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will not alter its policy stance on Friday, as doing so would increase financial market risk and hinder efforts to boost inflation. Previously, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) announced that the central bank will review the negative side effects of the decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy, generating the impression that the central bank is eager to abandon the easy policy.

 

The experts at Standard Charted expect the Bank of Japan to hold both the policy balance rate and the 10-year yield goal at their present levels of -0.1% and 0%, respectively. The recent decision to expand the 10-year JGB band to +/-50 bps (from +/-25 bps) will be evaluated by policymakers at the December meeting.

 

The replacement of current Governor of the Bank of Japan Haruhiko Kuroda will be widely followed. The next BoJ governor nominee is anticipated to be presented to the Japanese parliament on February 10, Reuters reported on Tuesday. Amamiya, Nakaso, and Yamaguchi are regarded as leading C.banking candidates.
