The EUR/USD is once again under pressure as Asia takes over the baton

EUR/USD is down 0.13 percent, having fallen from a top of 1.1013 to a low of 1.0982 thus far. The US dollar rose on Wednesday as oil prices rose again, with US President Joe Biden set to announce more sanctions against Russia with European leaders during his trip to Europe. Traders are anticipating Biden’s arrival in Brussels later Wednesday to meet with NATO and European leaders in an emergency conference at the headquarters of the Western military alliance. According to Reuters, the US package would include sanctions aimed at Russian members of parliament.

Stocks in the United States plummeted as a result of the news, but treasuries rebounded from historic losses ahead of stricter monetary policy to battle inflation. The S&P 500 fell 1.2 percent, driven by financial sector losses, as the 10-year Treasury yield fell to 2.30 percent after touching highs not seen since mid-2019. Traders are piling into bonds as Federal Reserve officials indicate they are likely to hike interest rates rapidly to manage inflation, and the Ukraine crisis has drove commodity prices up 26 percent this year.

Meanwhile, Loretta Mester, a member of the Federal Open Market Committee, has advocated for 50bp rate rises this year, citing the economy’s surplus demand.

As the Ukraine war and inflation troubles combine stable yields, the XAU/USD is bracing for a $2,000 price

For the third day in a row, gold (XAU/USD) has been in the lead, with bids at $1,963 at press time in Friday’s Asian session. The previous day, amid rising anxiety over the Ukraine-Russia confrontation, the yellow metal hit a new high in almost two weeks. The metal’s recent gain, on the other hand, might be connected to a drop in the value of the US dollar. By press time, the US Dollar Index (DXY) had fallen 0.30 percent intraday to 98.50, halting a two-day upswing. The dollar’s recent fall might be attributed to slow Asian rates and market inflation worries, as well as hesitation over Ukraine’s conflict with Russia.

It’s worth remembering that most global officials, not just the Fed, have recently raised concerns about inflation, which has fueled gold’s safe-haven demand. Japan’s central bankers were the most recent to join the group. The possibility of a 0.50 percent rate rise by the US Federal Reserve (Fed) and talk about Quantitative Tightening are also worth noting (QT).

“Russia will emerge from the Ukraine crisis weakened militarily and diplomatically,” a senior US official was reported by Reuters as saying. On the same topic, Reuters published an article claiming that Russia’s precision missiles are inaccurate and that there has been a shortage of them in recent days. Australia and Japan have recently joined the West in punishing Russia, heightening concerns over the situation.

On Thursday, US Vice President Joe Biden pressed European leaders, the Group of Seven (G7), and NATO members to impose more sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine. While his NATO allies were able to set up combat guards for four Ukrainian cities and denounced Beijing’s connections with Moscow, the rest of the world mostly avoided substantial sanctions against Russia.

The NZD/USD is in command as the US dollar strengthens

NZD/USD is trading 0.23 percent down on the day at 0.6944, having fallen from a high of 0.6963. The US dollar is up in the morning after posting its sixth weekly rise in the last seven. The DXY index, which measures the US dollar against a basket of currencies, is up 0.3 percent to 99.100. The dollar has benefitted from its role as a safe haven, and the situation in Ukraine has increased hopes that the Fed would raise interest rates. Meanwhile, the New Zealand dollar has settled into what appears to be a comfortable “groove” around the mid to high 0.69s, according to ANZ Bank strategists.

“There is really little going on domestically, but markets are now fairly completely priced for impending rises (while 50bp hikes aren’t entirely priced in, the risk of them is). Rates are unlikely to move much more (either for themselves or the NZD) until the RBNZ decision on April 13th.” “But it’s a different picture across the Tasman, as probabilities of RBA hikes continue to rise, with a full hike priced in by June and “612” rises factored in by year end,” the analysts wrote. This appears to be pushing the NZD at the moment, and it appears that the question is, will the NZD/USD break higher?”
In terms of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand and market pricing, Westpac analysts suggest that markets are currently overpricing the expected scope of OCR rises over the next couple of years.

“However, if we’re accurate, what would cause the market to correct?” We believe it will come down to proof that monetary policy is already having an impact – cooling the housing market and eventually lowering consumer demand to more sustainable levels,” the analysts concluded.

GBP/USD falls from 1.3080 as the DXY declines on improved risk appetite

The GBP/USD pair has seen some hefty bids at 1.3080 as investors’ risk appetite improves and risk-perceived assets acquire more demand. Previously, the cable underperformed despite the Bank of England’s tightening monetary policies (BOE). To counteract rising inflation, the Bank of England raised interest rates to 0.75 percent. The central bank increased its benchmark interest rate three times in a row, each time by 25 basis points (bps). In addition, the UK’s Office for National Statistics published the annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) at 6.2 percent, which was much higher than market expectations and prior readings of 5.9 percent and 5.5 percent, respectively. A higher-than-expected report of UK inflation may drive the BOE to raise interest rates again in May.

The US dollar index (DXY) has hit a roadblock after failing to set a new nine-month high and is on the danger of falling below 99.00. The DXY has been pounded at 99.30 due to an increase in risk appetite following the absence of three major Moscow demands: denazification, demilitarization, and legal protection for the Russian language in Ukraine. Meanwhile, the 10-year US Treasury yield is hanging around 2.46 percent ahead of the release of US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) on Friday. The early estimate of US NFP at 475K is a considerable decrease from the prior print of 678K.

XAU/USD pair remains bullish as the US currency continues to fall

The gold price is rising as the US currency and US yields fall. The 10-year yield is down almost 2% on the day, while the DXY index, which measures the US dollar against a basket of currencies, is down about 0.3 percent at the time of writing. Russia has promised to pull back military activities near Ukraine’s capital and north, while Kyiv has recommended that Ukraine join the EU while remaining neutral by not joining NATO.

“Talks were fruitful enough for Putin and Zelensky to meet,” said Ukrainian presidential advisor Mykhailo Podolyak. “We have documentation ready today that will allow the presidents to meet bilaterally,” he added. However, overall, movement has been very subdued. This suggests that the Russia-Ukraine conflict is not as priced in as some may have expected, or that markets are not fully buying it. Markets have been up and down in the previous 24 hours. The most important event, however, was the increase in 2Y UST rates to 2.45 percent yesterday, as well as yield curve inversions.

Market investors have pounced on gold (XAU/USD) as safe-haven assets lose attractiveness as peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine continue. This week, the precious metal fell precipitously after failing to hold above the $1,950.00 level. Despite a response purchase just below $1,900, gold prices have risen to about $1,920.00. The Russian government has ignored the opening step of a ceasefire with Ukraine and has evacuated its soldiers from northern Ukraine and Kyiv. While Ukraine has declared itself neutral and has elected not to join the NATO alliance.

Moscow and Kyiv’s opening move toward a ceasefire plan has lifted market mood. Risky assets are gaining momentum in the midst of a strong risk-on drive. Meanwhile, the US dollar index (DXY) has been subjected to a barrage of selling in safe-haven assets. The DXY is retracing to approximately 98.00, its low from Tuesday, and is expected to continue its losses once the latter is violated. The Federal Reserve (Fed) has a better chance of raising interest rates by 50 basis points (bps) despite weak US JOLTS Job Openings data. The JOLTS Job Opening number was 11.266M, slightly higher than the prior result of 11.263M and the projection of 11M.

The US Dollar Index is testing 4-week lows at 97.70 ahead of data

The greenback has been under pressure this week, trading at multi-week lows of 97.70 when measured by the US Dollar Index (DXY) on Thursday. For the third session in a row, the index loses ground and trades at the 97.70 level, despite a cautious posture in wider risk appetite trends and resumed demand for bonds. On the latter, US yields continue to lose momentum and grind lower from recent peaks, with the US 10y benchmark falling for the third straight day to approximately 2.30 percent (down from around 2.55 percent on Friday).

On the geopolitical front, increased scepticism prevails in reaction to apparent progress in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations in Turkey, which have so far failed to produce any serious follow-up. Initial Claims are due in the US data sector, followed by inflation as defined by the PCE, Personal Income/Spending, and the Chicago PMI.

In addition, J.Williams of the New York Fed (permanent voter, centrist) is scheduled to speak. The index stays on the defensive, retesting the first support zone at 97.70.

GBP/JPY recovers from 160.00 as the BOJ blames rising commodity prices for the yen’s weakness

The GBP/JPY pair has received some considerable offers at 159.50 amid widespread selling in the Japanese yen as a result of the Bank of Japan’s unlimited bond-purchase program me (BOJ). The cross is soaring, having risen over 0.7 percent on Friday from its previous close at the time of publication.

After the completion of the four-day bond-buying spree on Thursday, the aftereffects of the excessive purchase of Japanese Government Bonds (JGBs) to cap yields at 25 basis points appear to be gone. It appears that market players were waiting for the conclusion of JGB distribution from market participants to the BOJ, and that the pullback was just a result of investors capitalizing on a firmer rally.

According to Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Matsuno, the economy is improving, according to the BOJ Tankan survey, although difficulties from the Covid-19 outbreak linger. Furthermore, BOJ officials have stressed growing commodity costs, indicating that Japanese firms have primarily highlighted the impact of rising raw material prices and part shortages on present business circumstances.

Meanwhile, the pound has been supported against the yen by the UK’s GDP’s strong performance (GDP). On Thursday, the quarterly GDP came in at 1.3 percent higher than the market consensus and previous number of 1%.

In Asian markets, the XAU/USD bleeds out, falling below $1,920

The price of gold, XAU/USD, has been under pressure this week due to conflicting mood around the Ukraine issue against anticipation of a rapid-fire response from the Federal Reserve following last week’s Nonfarm Payrolls report.

XAU/USD is down 0.26 percent at the time of writing, having fallen from a high of $1,926.86 to below Friday’s low of $1,918.32. The dollar got off to a strong start on Monday, boosted by a surge in US Treasury rates on anticipation of a series of Fed rate hikes.

Following the release of the NFP report, US 2-year bond rates hit a new all-time high in the North American session, while US 10-year yields also climbed, indicating a drop in investor demand.

After a large upward revision to the February statistics to 750k, non-farm payrolls gained 431k in March. The unemployment rate decreased to 3.6 percent, while average hourly wages rose 0.4 percent month over month, bringing annual growth to 5.6 percent. The report was mixed, with hourly wages for February reduced down to 0.1 percent, indicating that, together with the March number, the pressure on the US labor market may be fading.

Overall, the report has bolstered the Fed’s case for using aggressive rate rises to keep inflation under control. Fed funds futures have a nearly 4/5 likelihood of a 50 basis point rise next month built in.
Despite this, economists at ANZ Bank believe that demand for safe have assets would continue robust because to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. “Since Russia invaded Ukraine, the disparity between fair value and current gold prices has jumped from zero to USD300/oz, implying a significant risk premium. In addition, the Russia-Ukraine conflict’ indirect effects will give a considerable degree of support. The wider isolation of Russia will result in an inflationary structural change in the energy industry.”

In other markets, speculation about further penalties kept the general tone cautious in early trade, but this, too, bolstered the US dollar. After Ukrainian and European authorities accused Russian soldiers of crimes, Germany’s defense minister suggested on Sunday that the European Union should consider restricting Russian gas supplies. Ukraine has accused Russian soldiers of carrying out a “massacre” in Bucha, which Russia’s defense ministry has denied.

“Haven flows are expected to keep the yellow metal sustained as long as significant progress on ceasefire discussions and de-escalation remains elusive,” analysts at TD Securities said. “At the same time, the 2-year and 10-year curves flirting with inversion has fanned rumours of a coming recession, providing yet another favorable dynamic for gold.”

XAU/USD is expected to drop to about $1,900 as aggressive Fed officials dampen market sentiment

After a massive sell-off on Tuesday, gold (XAU/USD) is struggling in the Asian session. Given the adverse market movement and aggressive tone espoused by Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers, the precious metal is anticipated to drop to around the psychological support of $1,900.00. In a speech on Tuesday, Fed Governor Lael Brainard stated that the Fed is prepared to act aggressively if inflation data and expectations indicate that such action is warranted. While Fed President Mary Daly has underlined the need for the Fed to reduce its balance sheet as quickly as possible. Furthermore, increased oil costs will not cause a significant downturn in the US economy.

On the other hand, on negative market mood, the US dollar index (DXY) has risen to almost 99.60. Fed members’ hawkish positions suggest that, in the future, rising interest rates will limit liquidity influx throughout the world. The risk-off impulse has been triggered, and the greenback is now climbing higher. Aside from the DXY, increased prospects of a 50 basis point (bps) interest rate hike have injected steroids into US Treasury rates. The 10-year US Treasury rates have surpassed 2.6 percent and are on the verge of setting a new three-year high.

The price of gold fell somewhat as the US currency gained strength. The DXY index, which measures the value of the dollar against a basket of other currencies, reached its highest level in over two years. The benchmark 10-y++3fear Treasury yield has risen to 2.55 percent, while the two-year yield has risen to 2.56 percent for the first time since March 2019.

Spot gold fell 0.3 percent to $1,916 per ounce, but was trading in a tight range, while US gold futures down 0.1 percent to $1,931.20. XAU/USD is down 0.2 percent at $1,921 at the time of writing, pressured in Asia after comments by Federal Reserve Governor Lael Brainard.

In advance of tomorrow’s hawkish minutes, the Fed member mentioned the possibility of forceful action by the central bank. Brainard stated that the Fed might begin lowering its balance sheet as early as May, and that it would do so at a “rapid pace.” Interest rate rises might be more aggressive than the usual 0.25 percentage point increments, according to Brainard. Meanwhile, during the March meeting, Fed policymakers began the process of policy normalisation by raising rates 25 basis points to 0.25 percent -0.50 percent, and the minutes of that meeting will be issued on Wednesday.

“Gold prices have remained remarkably robust, indicating strong ETF and comex inflows into gold trumping withdrawals linked with a hawkish Fed,” according to TD Securities analysts. “Because actual rates may be less effective as a barometer for evaluating gold’s relative price, we look at gold flows to see how long interest in the yellow metal will last.” ETF flows have tended to be more significantly connected with changes in market expectations for Fed hikes than real rates, the yield curve, or even price momentum, according to our study.

Oil falls due to global economic fears, ahead of the EU decision on Russia’s oil ban

Oil prices fell on Monday, along with Asian stock markets, on worries of a worldwide recession reducing oil consumption, with investors eyeing European Union discussions on a Russian oil embargo, which is likely to constrain global supply. By 0153 GMT, Brent crude had fallen 28 cents, or 0.3 percent, to $112.11 per barrel. West Texas Intermediate oil in the United States was trading at $109.36 per barrel, down 41 cents, or 0.4 percent.

“The key reasons that impact the oil price are the broader risk-off mood fueled by recession worries, and China’s lockdowns,” CMC Markets analyst Tina Teng said. Concerns about interest rate rises and lengthy COVID-19 lockdowns in China, which are harming the world’s second largest economy, have also rattled global financial markets.

“China’s continued restrictions may continue to impact on short-term oil prices,” Teng added. Saudi Arabia’s price drop reflected concerns about global oil consumption, she added. On Sunday, Saudi Arabia, the world’s largest oil exporter, reduced crude prices for Asia and Europe for June. Brent and WTI jumped for the second week in a row last week on supply worries after the European Commission suggested a phased restriction on Russian oil as part of its toughest-yet package of measures related to the Ukraine war. The plan requires a vote by all EU members.

However, Bulgaria’s Deputy Prime Minister stated late Sunday that if the proposed embargo is not lifted, the nation will reject EU oil penalties against Russia.”The negotiations will continue tomorrow and maybe on Tuesday, with a meeting of the leaders required to finalise them. Our stance is unequivocal. If certain nations receive a dispensation, we would like to receive one as well “Vassilev told BNT national television.

Bulgaria had previously stated that if such opt-outs were permitted, it would seek an exemption from the planned Russian oil ban, but it was unclear if it was seeking a full exemption or a delay similar to the one suggested on Friday for Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. According to Teng, the exclusions “will surely make the punishments less effective.”
