NASA: Artemis program astronauts have completed half of their lunar mission.According to Irans Mehr News Agency, a missile attack occurred in northern Tehran, resulting in one casualty.On April 4th, it was reported that TrueEV, XPengs exclusive distributor in Australia, entered administration (bankruptcy management) proceedings, drawing attention. XPeng responded that during the past two years of cooperation, it learned through various channels that TrueEV had experienced a broken cash flow and was under the control of its financing party, and had not purchased any vehicles for over a year, failing to fulfill order obligations including 454 cars. TrueEV also had a public business conflict with local dealers, severely damaging the foundation of trust between the two parties. Therefore, in accordance with the cooperation agreement, XPeng formally issued a breach of contract notice to TrueEV, terminating its exclusive distributorship, but retaining its distributorship status. However, TrueEV denied the aforementioned operational problems and instead pursued legal action against XPeng. The Australian court rejected its injunction application on April 1st. XPengs goal going forward is to establish itself in Australia within the next three years as a technology brand that is not only technologically advanced but also trustworthy in terms of user experience.On April 4th, it was reported that the international standard proposal for "DC Filter Capacitors for High Voltage Direct Current Transmission Systems," initiated by my country, was recently approved by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). This standard is the first international standard specifically addressing DC filter capacitors in the field of high voltage direct current transmission, filling a gap in related professional standards. The standard was led by Chinese experts, with participation from experts from Italy, France, Germany, and other countries. The development of this standard will facilitate the sharing of advanced technological concepts of Chinas core high voltage direct current transmission equipment with the world, contributing more Chinese strength to global energy transition and power system upgrading.April 4th - Data released by the General Statistics Office of Vietnam shows that Vietnams economy slowed compared to the previous quarter due to heavy reliance on Middle Eastern oil imports. Vietnams GDP grew by 7.83% in the first quarter, lower than the 8.46% in the fourth quarter of last year. The Vietnamese governments growth target for this year is no less than 10%, but this target is currently under pressure. Vietnam imports over 80% of its crude oil from the Middle East, and oil shipments from the region have been disrupted due to the conflict with Iran. Rising fuel prices have forced Vietnamese airlines to scale back operations and prompted authorities to introduce cost-control measures, including reducing fuel taxes, subsidizing prices through government-controlled funds, and encouraging remote work to reduce consumption.

GBP/USD falls from a five-month high to 1.2200 as traders await NFP data from the United States

GBP/USD reverses direction from yesterday's strongest levels since late June, as markets stabilise in front of Friday's critical US employment report for November. As of press time, despite this, the intraday low for the Cable pair is approaching 1.2230.

 

In addition to pre-NFP anxiety, the recent decline in the quote may also be ascribed to the market's modest pessimism and poorer UK statistics.

 

S&P 500 Futures decline 0.30 percent intraday to 4,070, mirroring market mood as US 10-year Treasury yields bounce from a 10-week low to 3.53 percent as of press time.

 

Potentially responsible are worries about the decline of the Initial Public Offering (IPO) markets. According to industry experts presenting at the Reuters NEXT conference, "a global slowdown in initial public offerings due to heightened market volatility and a regulatory cloud over fresh listings from China has created pent-up demand that might lead to an IPO boom in 2023."

 

The Business Times of Singapore stated that the United Kingdom's house prices dropped 1.4% in November, which was greater than the 0.2% reduction that had been forecast. In contrast, record-high fresh food inflation and a rise in the UK's final S&P Global/CIPS Manufacturing PMI statistics for November appear to pose a challenge to GBP/USD bears.

 

The Bank of England's (BOE) hawkish forecasts and the Federal Reserve's (Fed) recent dovish forecasts for its next move are on the same path. Moreover, weak US inflation and economic activity figures weigh on the US Dollar, keeping GBP/USD bulls bullish.

 

The November US jobs report will be crucial for GBP/USD buyers in light of negative data forecasts and fears of additional Greenback losses. As a result, the headline Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) number is expected to decline from 261K to 200K, while the unemployment rate may remain unchanged at 3.7%. It should be noted that a likely decline in Average Hourly Earnings for the relevant month could potentially weigh on the DXY.
