March 26th - To mitigate the risks of a potential war with Iran, investors are selling off stocks and bonds and increasing their cash holdings, a strategy mirroring Russias 2022 invasion of Ukraine. A recent Bank of America survey of fund managers this month showed the largest jump in cash holdings in six years. Meanwhile, JPMorgan strategists stated this week that the portfolio adjustments made in response to the conflict may be far from over. A report from the JPMorgan team, led by Nicholas Panigizoglou, stated that as long as geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty remains high, current below-historic cash allocations will negatively impact future stock and bond markets. Investors have been simultaneously selling stocks, bonds, and gold, favoring cash holdings. However, compared to the period when the Russia-Ukraine conflict erupted, cash levels in portfolios remain moderate.European Commission: We expect the United States to fulfill the terms of the trade agreement.According to a Reuters poll, 65 out of 82 economists (about 79%) believe the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates one or two times this year.According to a Reuters survey, the average U.S. PCE inflation rate is expected to be 3.3%, 3.1%, and 2.9% in the second, third, and fourth quarters, respectively (compared to forecasts of 2.8%, 2.7%, and 2.5% in the March 12 survey).TotalEnergies: Achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 will remain a difficult goal for society as a whole; the path to achieving the vision of carbon neutrality needs to be reassessed and adjusted over time.

After recovering to approximately 1.1214 during the Tokyo morning session, the AUD/NZD pair is approaching the critical 1.1250 barrier. In a broader sense, the asset is currently gaining after striking a low of 1.1120 last week. In expectation of favorable Australian employment data, market participants utilize any decline as a buying opportunity.

 

According to the consensus, the Australian Bureau of Statistics will publish a 35k increase in job creations against a 40.9k fall in payrolls. In addition, it is projected that the unemployment rate would remain constant at 3.4%. A similar situation could prompt the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to immediately increase the Official Cash Rate (OCR). The University of Melbourne's release of the Consumer Inflation Expectation statistics is also of major importance.

 

It is projected that the Consumer Inflation Expectation will increase dramatically to 6.7% from 5.7% earlier. This will prompt RBA Governor Philip Lowe to announce a fifth consecutive 50 basis point (bps) rate hike at the monetary policy committee meeting in October.

 

On the front of New Zealand, investors anticipate the announcement of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) numbers on Thursday. Consensus forecasts indicate a 0.2% expansion in the New Zealand economy, as opposed to the 1.2% reported previously. While the quarterly data will result in an expansion of 0.8% as opposed to a decline of 0.2%.
