On April 20th, Huawei officially launched its first ultra-wide folding smartphone, the Huawei Pura X Max.

Huawei claims this improves overall performance by 30%.Huawei Terminal: The number of terminal devices supporting HarmonyOS 6 has exceeded 55 million.A senior Iranian source said that Irans "defense capabilities," including its missile program, are not within the scope of negotiations.On April 20, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jia-kun held a regular press conference. On the afternoon of April 19, 36,000 people in Japan rallied around the Diet building to strongly protest the Takaichi Sanae governments attempt to amend the constitution. Protesters held signs reading "Oppose War," "Dont Violate Article 9 of the Constitution," and "Takaichi Resign," calling for the protection of the pacifist constitution. What is the spokespersons comment on this? Guo Jia-kun responded: "We have also noticed that Japans constitutional amendment movement has aroused increasing doubt and opposition within Japan, among its Asian neighbors, and in the international community." Guo Jia-kun pointed out that Japanese militarism committed atrocities against the people of China and other Asian countries, and also brought profound suffering to the Japanese people. Therefore, the issue of Japanese constitutional amendment concerns the post-war international order and Japans future, and has always received high attention from the international community and its Asian neighbors. However, Japan has so far failed to deeply and thoroughly reflect on its history of aggression, and some forces are even attempting to glorify and whitewash its crimes of aggression, pushing Japan to accelerate its "remilitarization," leading to the rise of a new type of militarism that threatens regional peace and stability. The international community should be highly vigilant about this. "Preventing the resurgence of militarism is Japans due obligation and the firm will of the international community, including China. We urge Japan to learn from history, abide by its international obligations, and adhere to the path of peaceful development," Guo Jiakun said.Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bagaei: There are currently no plans for a second round of negotiations with the United States.

As U.S. markets are closed on Monday in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, the EUR/USD pair is attempting to establish a trend. As investors anticipate the release of Producer Price Index (PPI) and Retail Sales data from the United States, the main currency pair is trading below 1.0840.

 

S&P500 futures had some selling pressure early in the Asian session, but have since recovered their losses and turned positive, signaling an improvement in risk appetite on the market. Under the influence of a positive market mentality, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is attempting to break below the immediate support level of 101.75.

 

The U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) slowed in December, bolstering the case for the Federal Reserve (Fed) to announce a smaller interest rate increase in the near future. As the Fed seeks to end policy tightening, the USD Index may continue its downward trend for an extended period of time in the future.

 

According to analysts at Wells Fargo, the conclusion of monetary tightening should put an end to the dollar's advances by early 2023. In fact, we believe the trade-weighted dollar has already reached its cyclical peak." Once the Fed begins reducing its policy interest rate at the beginning of the following year, they anticipate an even more pronounced USD depreciation in 2024.

 

On Wednesday, investors will focus on the release of US Producer Price Index (PPI) data. The street anticipated a decline as a result of the decline in gasoline prices, which has enabled manufacturers to drop prices at factory gates as a result of reduced production costs. In addition, price reductions will counteract a decline in retail demand. Additionally, Retail Sales figures will be extensively examined.

 

Meanwhile, Eurozone investors are pleased that Germany's preliminary Gross Domestic Product (GDP) expanded 1.9% on an annualized rate in 2022, compared to the market consensus of 1.8% and the previous release of 2.5%.
