In the report, Kuo mentioned that the A20 chip of the iPhone 18 will be packaged using WMCM (wafer-level multi-chip module) technology. This technology integrates the so-called "fill and mold process" to improve production efficiency and increase yield rate. Yield rate refers to the percentage of functional chips that can be obtained from each silicon wafer. However, Kuo Ming-Chi pointed out that the high-end M5 chip in 2026 (most likely the M5Pro and M5Max chips) will still retain independent fill and mold processes during the production process. He mentioned that the 2026 time node is particularly critical because there have been rumors that the MacBook Pro equipped with the M5 chip will be released at the end of 2025.U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC): The companies agreed to "avoid future anticompetitive agreements with state regulators."U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC): Collaboration involving Daimler Trucks, International Motors, Paccar and Volvo Group raises antitrust concerns.

AUD/USD jumps to approximately 0.6820 before to the Reserve Bank of Australia's policy announcement

During the Tokyo session, the AUD/USD pair enjoyed a substantial rebound following a corrective decline below 0.6780. In response to the risk appetite profile, the Australian dollar has accelerated to roughly 0.6820 and is expected to continue its gains above the previous week's 0.6845 high.

 

In the meantime, the US Dollar Index (DXY) has climbed somewhat sideways above Friday's low of 104.40, as bullish market sentiment has lessened the desirability of safe-haven assets. The optimistic Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report from the United States has failed to strengthen the US Dollar. Compared to the previous report, the US economy added 263,000 jobs in November, an increase of 53 percent. In addition, the yearly increase in the labor cost index has reached 5.1%.

 

As households acquire more disposable income, a robust labor market and rising wages indicate a rise in inflationary pressures. This may lead to a rise in demand for perishable and durable goods, hence supporting price rises.

 

On the antipodean front, investors await Tuesday's announcement of the Reserve Bank of Australia's (RBA) interest rate decision. We anticipate another 25 basis point (bps) increase at the final monetary policy meeting of the year on December 6, bringing the OCR to 3.10 percent, according to economists from UOB Group.

 

Notably, this might be RBA Governor Philip Lowe's third consecutive 25-bps rate increase. The monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) decreased from 7.1% in September to 6.9% in October. Inflation remains well above the target of 2%, necessitating a continuation of policy tightening.

 

Moreover, investors will track the Caixin Service PMI data. It is anticipated that the economic statistics will be somewhat higher at 48.8 than the previous report of 48.4.
