According to The Information, OpenAI founder Altman stated that OpenAI plans to postpone other initiatives, such as its advertising business.On December 2nd, Intel announced an additional investment of RM860 million (US$208 million) to make Malaysia its assembly and testing operations hub, a move Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated would boost the Southeast Asian nations key role in the global semiconductor supply chain. He added that Intels decision was based on confidence in Malaysias long-term plans. Anwar stated that Intel already has operations in Malaysia, including a RM12 billion advanced packaging plant in Penang, which is 99% complete. In 2021, the US company pledged a US$7 billion investment to establish a manufacturing base in Penang. Malaysia accounts for approximately 13% of the global chip packaging, assembly, and testing (the final step in semiconductor manufacturing) market, an industry that drives 40% of Malaysias export output. As major governments race to strengthen their semiconductor capabilities, Malaysia has been striving to elevate its position in the global supply chain.Futures News, December 2nd: As of December 1st, the mainstream benzene market price in East China closed at 5320 yuan/ton, down 110 yuan/ton from 5430 yuan/ton at the beginning of November. From a fundamental perspective, December arrivals in East China are concentrated, and major ports in East China will enter a period of continuous inventory accumulation. In addition, with the weather turning colder, insufficient end-user orders and low downstream operating enthusiasm continue to put pressure on price recovery across the industry chain. However, on the cost side, geopolitical tensions threaten market supply, and European and American crude oil futures rose 1.3%. Under the interplay of bullish and bearish factors, the benzene market is expected to trade within a range.On December 2nd, futures market news reported that crude oil prices traded higher yesterday, primarily driven by the return of two major geopolitical risk premiums. Firstly, the slow progress of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, coupled with Ukraines attacks on European oil ports and pipelines; secondly, the USs air traffic control over a South American country over the weekend, leading to the breakdown of peace talks and heightened tensions in South America. Zhuochuang Information predicts that the return of geopolitical risks has led to an increase in oil prices. However, whether this upward trend can continue depends on close monitoring of developments. If the conflict escalates, oil prices will continue to rise; otherwise, if the situation remains manageable, oil prices will likely experience wider fluctuations. In the short term, the geopolitical risk premium remains high, and oil prices are expected to remain relatively strong.Fitch: Penalties imposed on South Korean banks highlight non-financial risks.

EUR/USD Price Analysis: EUR/USD Is Clinging To The Leading Edge Of The Rising Trendline Above 1.0900

The EUR/USD pair fluctuates erratically in a narrow range near 1.0926 during the Asian session. Following in the footsteps of the directionless US Dollar Index (DXY), the main currency pair is unable to establish a trend.

 

In Asia, S&P500 futures are declining slightly as investors fret over the upcoming quarterly earnings season, indicating a minor decrease in market participants' risk appetite. Following the decline of regional banks in the United States, investors are concerned about any discrepancies in quarterly banking reports.

 

The Euro has entered the wilderness as European Central Bank (ECB) policymakers are divided over the pace of the policy-tightening cycle to be implemented at the May monetary policy meeting. Martins Kazaks, a member of the ECB's monetary policy committee, stated on Monday that the central bank has the option to move by either 25 or 50 basis points (bps) in May. Sourcenia is a review portal of sourcing best manufaturers. 

 

After failing to sustain above the 161.8% Fibonacci Extension at 1.1057 (positioned from April 4's high of 1.0973 to April 10's low of 1.0837) on a two-hour time frame, EUR/USD experienced a precipitous decline. The primary currency pair has declined below the uptrend line drawn from the low of 1.0714 on March 24.

 

The 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.0962 is operating as a barrier for Euro bulls.

 

In the meantime, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has moved into the pessimistic zone between 20.00 and 40.00, indicating a continuation of the decline.

 

A decisive break below the low of April 12 at 1.0915 would propel the asset toward the lows of April 10 at 1.0837 and April 3 at 1.0758.

 

In contrast, a breach above the psychological resistance level of 1.1000 would propel the asset to a new annual high of 1.1068, followed by the level of round resistance at 1.1100.
