Liao explained that due to fluctuating memory prices, which have increased exponentially, to avoid the impact, ASUS has switched to fixed-price quotations and is hesitant to accept long-term orders of one year or more than one quarter. "We had a commercial PC order finalized this year, with delivery scheduled for two months later, but after calculating, we ended up losing money." He analyzed that the price increase is not unique to ASUS, but rather affecting all PC brands, as they are currently facing shortages and price increases in memory, SSDs, and CPUs.March 24th, Futures Market News: Zhengzhou rapeseed meal futures opened lower and then fluctuated throughout the day. Canadian canola futures closed lower, with the benchmark contract down 1.02%, following the downward trend in international crude oil futures. Rapeseed meal spot prices also weakened. On the one hand, domestic demand remained sluggish, and coastal inventories increased month-on-month, easing market concerns about supply. On the other hand, weakening cost support from soybean meal dragged down rapeseed meal prices. In the long term, expectations for ample domestic rapeseed meal supply remain strong.

The EUR/USD moves in the 1.0200 range during Tuesday's Asian session after falling from 1.0221 as traders look for fresh data. The major currency pair gained over the first part of the week but lost some of those gains by Monday's close. Recent price fluctuations, however, seem to be constrained by a lack of noteworthy data or events and a cautious attitude ahead of Wednesday's release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) for July.

 

Gains in the EUR/USD the day before are shown by higher readings of the Eurozone Sentix Investor Confidence Index and a drop in US Treasury yields. The primary sentiment indicator Index, however, increased in August from -26.4 to -25.2, which was projected to be the value. According to specifics, the eurozone's present state has improved from this month's lowest position since March 2021, when it was -16.5, to -16.3. The expectations index is at its lowest level since December 2008, despite a little increase to -33.8. It is still very close to that level. The US Dollar Index (DXY), in contrast, saw a daily decrease of 0.19 percent to 106.37.

 

The moderate Azione's resignation from the newly formed alliance ahead of the September elections looks to have put negative pressure on the Euro elsewhere due to Italian political worries.

 

The moderate Azione has backed out of its coalition with the Democratic Party and the +Europe party after only agreeing to do so last week. According to party leader Carlo Calendar, "the parts didn't fit." According to Reuters and Market News Publishing US, the alliance was formed in an effort to stop a more conservative government from taking office after the election on September 25.

 

Notably, gains in the EUR/USD the day before appeared to have been constrained by US President Joe Biden's displeasure of China's efforts to retake Taiwan and his censure of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's trip to Taipei.

 

These actions caused the 10-year US Treasury rates, which had increased by 14 basis points (bps) the day before, to fall by around seven basis points (bps) to 2.75 percent. Wall Street also started Monday's trading day on a positive one before ending on a mixed note, albeit as of press time, S&P 500 Futures are showing minor gains.

 

Participants in the EUR/USD market may be interested in the second quarter's (Q2) US Nonfarm Productivity and Unit Labor Costs data. Forecasts suggest that US Nonfarm Productivity may rise to -4.6% from -7.3%, while Unit Labor Costs may decrease to 9.5% from 12.6%. The news regarding Taiwan and Russia will also be important for determining direction.
