Bank of Japan Osaka branch governor: If the Middle East conflict continues, the negative impact on economic activity may expand.Bank of Japan Osaka Branch Governor: The Middle East conflict has had a limited impact on economic activity in the western Kinki region so far.April 6th - According to a report by the Brazilian website "Situation for the World" on April 5th, Cuban authorities announced on the 4th that they had completed the unloading of 100,000 tons of crude oil from the Russian-deployed oil tanker "Anatoly Kolodkin" in the Gulf of Matanzas, aiming to alleviate Cubas energy crisis caused by the intensified US blockade. This crude oil will be refined in the coming days to produce gasoline, diesel, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), all essential for maintaining basic public services and the national economy. The unloading operation, carried out by the Cuban National Oil Company (PDO), is part of an energy cooperation agreement between Havana and Moscow, aimed at easing Cubas fuel supply shortage. According to Cuban authorities, this crude oil shipment strengthens the strategic relationship between Cuba and Russia and expresses international solidarity in the face of the US blockade.The yield on 40-year Japanese government bonds rose 9 basis points to 3.960%.On April 6th, Saudi Arabia raised its crude oil prices for its main Asian markets by $17 per barrel, a record high premium over the Oman/Dubai average, as Irans near closure of the Strait of Hormuz restricted energy transport in the region and market volatility stemmed from uncertainty over the duration of the conflict. Saudi Aramco has set its official selling price for its Arab Light crude oil to Asia in May at a premium of $19.50 per barrel over the Oman/Dubai average, up $17 per barrel from the previous month.

The USD/JPY pair is climbing northward during the Asian session in an attempt to retake its two-week high at 135.58. The asset's price turned positive on Monday as a result of the abundance of bids that occurred near 134.50. The USD/JPY pair's two-day consolidated activity shows that market participants are anxiously awaiting the release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI).

 

Investors expect a decrease in price pressures this time, thus the release of the US inflation report is crucial. The investment community is aware that the crisis between Russia and Ukraine sharply increased oil prices, which continued to be essential to pressures on global costs.

 

A more than 11% drop in oil prices in July contributed to the black gold's continued sluggishness and lowered inflation expectations. The market anticipates that the inflation rate will decrease from 9.1% to 8.7%. The core CPI, which does not include food and oil, is anticipated to increase to 6.1% from the previously announced 5.9%. It appears that the demand for durable goods is rapidly increasing again. The US dollar index (DXY) is currently aiming to surpass the 106.40 immediate barrier.

 

The yen bulls are circling Tokyo as a result of Japan's government reorganization. Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki will probably remain in the cabinet after this week's reorganization by Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. All eyes will now be on the Japanese government's efforts to raise the labor cost index, which is essential for keeping inflation over 2%.
