Soaring inflation raging across world!

This image is no longer relevant

High inflation has become a thorny issue beyond the US. The phenomenon is crippling the whole global economy, forcing central banks around the world to take sweeping measures. Indeed, major central banks have embarked on aggressive monetary policies. The joint efforts aim to curb high inflation worldwide. President of New York Federal Reserve Bank John Williams said in an interview with Bloomberg Television that raising interest rates in May would be an appropriate policy move.

He also expanded on the timeline for normalizing interest rates, saying that the regulator has to nudge the official funds rate to more neutral or normal levels. By the next year, the Federal Reserve is expected to get back to normal interest rates. It means that nominal loan expenses, excluding inflation expectations, should come to reasonable levels.

According to the CME FedWatch instrument, the likelihood that the Federal Reserve will increase interest rates at least by 25 basis points at the May policy meeting is measured at 91.06%.

The hawkish stance of the Fed's monetary policy aimed at pushing down the highest inflation rate in the last 4 decades is not intrinsic to the US watchdog. Reuters acknowledges that other central banks are also determined to combat soaring consumer prices. New Zealand and Canada have already increased their key policy rates by half a percentage point. In contrast, last week the ECB unveiled its plans to scale back monetary stimulus throughout the year, albeit refraining from any rate hikes.

Central banks in various counties are dealing with runaway inflation. Among them are New Zealand, Canada, the UK, the US, Australia, Sweden, Switzerland, and Japan. The global headwind requires joint efforts from monetary authorities around the world. At the same time, they are aware that escalating jitters in Ukraine are putting a lid on their monetary policies which have to be adjusted for geopolitical uncertainty.

Nevertheless, central banks admit that the geopolitical conflict is mainly to blame because soaring inflation emerged as the fallout of the war. It has dealt a devastating blow to global expenses on food supplies and energy. They will hardly decrease as long as the conflict goes along. Even with interference of central banks, simply raising interest rates will not cut demand for basics such as food and energy which account for the core of ongoing inflationary pressure.

美國新聞和事件的焦點將繼續延續。我仍然認為市場上最重要的因素是唐納德·特朗普的決策。

英鎊:每週前瞻

最近對於這兩種金融工具的評論變得可以預測,甚至有些乏味。能夠影響市場情緒和工具走勢的所有因素皆可歸結於美國總統唐納德·特朗普。

歐元/美元:分析與預測

今天,歐元/美元貨幣對開始吸引買家,打破了連續三天的跌勢,並試圖在1.1300這一重要心理關口上方建立盤中動能。這表明在重要的歐元區和美國經濟數據發布前,買家興趣重新回升,進行了一些重新定位。

美國就業市場數據可能是重大失望

美國的就業增長在4月可能放緩,不過失業率預計將保持不變,顯示勞動力需求健康但屬於溫和增長。然而,特朗普政府的新貿易政策可能對勞動力市場造成顯著損害。

歐洲央行別無選擇

隨著交易者越來越多地押注於歐洲央行即將作出的貨幣政策決策,歐洲貨幣持續對美元失去優勢。 根據數據,預計歐洲央行在九月降息的機率顯著上升。

中國終於作出回應

在中國當局表示正在評估與美國展開貿易談判的可能性後,歐元、英鎊和其他風險資產都出現了反彈,這是自上個月唐納德·特朗普提高關稅以來,雙方首次有了真正的進展跡象。 週五,中國商務部發布聲明,提到美國官員多次表示願意就關稅問題與北京進行談判,並敦促華盛頓展現誠意。

進程已經開始。中國已做好貿易談判的準備(黃金和歐元/美元價格有可能再度下跌)

本週最後一個交易日呈現積極走勢。中國準備展開談判的消息激勵了投資者購買風險資產並削弱了美元。

市場進入動盪局勢

市場對於關稅不會成為現實,或者公司能夠將關稅轉嫁給顧客的信心十足。標普500指數的八日連漲——自八月份以來的最長漲勢——強烈暗示了這一點。
