Among these measures, prioritizing the sale of completed properties on newly transferred land and raising the pre-sale threshold to the completion of the main structure are seen by the market as a landmark signal of a fundamental restructuring of the pre-sale system for commercial housing. "This is not simply terminating the pre-sale system, but a systematic reform involving categorized optimization and gradual implementation," said Wang Shao, president of the Guangdong Real Estate Industry Association. He explained that this round of new policies follows the principle of "establishing before dismantling, and promoting stability through progress," aiming to reduce industry leverage, strip away excessive financial attributes, and promote the return of real estate to its fundamental purpose of providing housing through coordinated efforts from the sales, finance, and capital sides. In Wang Shaos view, the completed property sales model will significantly raise the industrys entry threshold, forcing real estate companies to restructure their traditional high-turnover development logic. While the industry will experience short-term adjustment pains, it is expected to truly enter a new cycle of high-quality development in the medium to long term.

  • USD/CHF remained stuck around 0.9350 despite a big increase in US Treasury yields.

  • The DXY is aiming for 100.00 as traders increase their expectations for an aggressive rate hike.

  • Russia resigns from the United Nations Human Rights Council.

 

Since Thursday, the USD/CHF pair has been swinging within a narrow band of 0.9318-0.9348 as Federal Reserve (Fed) policymakers have begun prescribing a reversion to neutral rates from ultra-loose monetary policy postures.

 

After commenting on the amount to which the Fed will raise interest rates in future monetary policies, members of the Fed's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) have changed their focus to calling for a return to neutral policy. The ultra-loose monetary policies and helicopter money used to boost growth following the Covid-19 outbreak have served their purpose, and it would be preferable to return to normal rates and a self-sufficient economy. Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic stated on Thursday that while it is quite acceptable for the Fed to move policy closer to neutral, it should go cautiously, according to Reuters.

 

On the Russia-Ukraine front, Russia is expelled from the United Nations (UN) Human Rights Council after its members voted against the Kremlin's war crimes in Bucha, Ukraine. Additionally, US lawmakers have decided to prohibit Moscow from importing oil, gas, and coal. Additionally, the former has opted to revoke its 'Most Favored Nation' trade designation, resulting in higher tariffs for Moscow.

 

Meanwhile, the US dollar index is heading towards the enchanted level of 100.00, fueled by forecasts for better US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data next week. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note has recaptured a three-year high of 2.66 percent as rate rise worries resurface.
