A statement released Monday revealed that in the iOS 26.4 developer beta, Apple is making it easier for viewers to switch between video podcasts and audio listening. While Apple Podcasts has long supported video programming via RSS feeds, its effectiveness has lagged far behind platforms like Spotify, YouTube, and Netflix. Apple is partnering with hosting platforms such as Amazons Art19, SiriusXMs Simplecast, and AdsWizz to ensure podcast creators can sync their video programming to the app. Starting this spring, video podcasts will be supported on Vision Pro, iPad, iPhone, and the web version of Apple Podcasts. Later this year, Apple will also charge ad networks for video ads based on ad impressions.February 17th - New Zealands newly appointed Reserve Bank of New Zealand Governor Anna Brehman will hold her first policy meeting this week, and is expected to keep interest rates unchanged. Amid persistent inflationary pressures, the market is focused on her assessment of the economic outlook. A survey of 22 economists indicates that Wednesdays meeting will maintain the official cash rate at 2.25%. Brehman joined the Reserve Bank of New Zealand from the Swedish central bank in early December last year. In the last three months of last year, the countrys economy expanded rapidly, and inflation unexpectedly exceeded the upper limit of the 1-3% target range, prompting economists to widely predict a rate hike before the end of the year. The money market currently bets a 70% probability of a 25 basis point rate hike in September and has fully priced in a tightening of policy in December.

Despite the US Dollar's decline, EUR/USD bulls surge

The US Dollar's decline has caused the EUR/USD to reach the apex of the bull cycle, which started at the end of September. The Euro has climbed from 1.0489 to 1.0507 thus far on Tuesday, up 0.12%.

 

However, since the start of the week, the US Dollar has been the main driver, and today's bid reflects little of what happened to risk appetite on Monday. Due to the unexpected expansion in the US services sector in November, many predict that the Federal Reserve will increase interest rates by a larger amount than previously predicted.

 

Following a recovery from the 104.11 bearish cycle lows in November, the DXY index, which measures the US Dollar against the US dollar, has retreated to the 105 area. As a result, the Euro declined at the start of the US session for the week as a result of a flight to safety following a decline in market optimism regarding a potential easing of COVID restrictions in China.

 

Investors' appetite for risk has increased as a result of several Chinese localities easing their COVID restrictions in what appears to be a shift toward gradual reopening as the nation approaches its fourth year of the pandemic. However, despite the partial relaxation, there are still many restrictions in place, and in some parts of the nation, new lockdowns and travel restrictions are still being enforced.
