On June 23, Bank of Canada Governor John Macklem stated that the agreement reached between the United States and Iran to end the conflict and allow crude oil to be transported through the Strait of Hormuz is a welcome development for the global economy. Briefly mentioning this in a speech on global imbalances, Macklem said, "Global energy prices have begun to decline, although many issues remain to be addressed." Driven by rising gasoline prices, Canadas inflation rate accelerated in May, reaching its highest level since 2023. Economists believe that the immediate decline in energy prices should lead to a softening of overall inflation, which will provide further reassurance to the Bank of Canada given that core CPI appears to be under control.European Central Bank Vice President Vujicic: Inflation will remain high.Market news: The United States has added dozens of entities to its sanctions list.On June 23, He Lifeng, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Vice Premier of the State Council, conducted research in Henan Province from June 21 to 23.

Following the release of the minutes from the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), the AUD/JPY pair surged above the 90.30-point critical resistance level. According to the RBA minutes, policymakers actively considered the decision to raise rates further. However, the decision to maintain the status quo was made after the collection of additional data.

 

Citing the resilience of Australia's financial system, RBA policymakers believed that the Board's future cash rate decisions would depend on the global economy, household spending trends, inflation projections, and employment forecasts.

 

Continue to monitor China's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) statistics. Compared to its stagnant performance in the final quarter of CY2022, the Chinese economy is estimated to have grown by 2.2%. Compared to the previous annual growth rate of 2.9%, the current annual growth rate for the economy is 4.0%. Australia is China's greatest trading partner, and stronger Chinese GDP data would strengthen the Australian Dollar.

 

The announcement of the People's Bank of China (PBOC) interest rate decision later this week will be crucial. Last week, the People's Bank of China pledged to provide additional monetary support to spur retail demand. Despite the reopening of China's economy following a period of economic restraint, the country's inflation rate has been consistently declining over the past few months.

 

According to Jiji news and Reuters, the Bank of Japan is reportedly considering a projection for consumer price growth between 1.6% and 1.9% for the 2025 fiscal year, a move seen as preventing market participants from betting on the central bank's departure from stimulus. This has also delayed the possibility of a shift away from an expansionary monetary policy, which cannot be considered until the Japanese inflation rate persists above 2%.
