According to a report by Irans Fars News Agency, citing its journalists, Iran and the United States failed to reach a consensus on their differences in the latest round of negotiations.According to a report by a correspondent for Iranian state television in Islamabad, talks between Iran and the United States will continue on Sunday.April 12th - Significant differences remain between the US and Iran, primarily regarding the Strait of Hormuz and the unfreezing of funds. Meanwhile, Israel remains a potential disruptor. Iranian media and analysts point out that the current situation can be described as a transitional phase between war and peace, with the regional situation remaining fragile. A comprehensive agreement between Iran and the US in the short term is unrealistic, but reaching a preliminary framework or a lasting cessation of hostilities is not impossible—however, it is crucial to consider whether Israel will seriously undermine this process at a critical moment.On April 12, local time, the third round of talks between Iran and the United States in Islamabad concluded. Iran described this round as the "last chance" to reach a framework agreement. Since April 11, the two sides had a busy schedule, consulting late into the night, with all parties vying for the temporary ceasefire window and intensifying their maneuvering. However, sharp differences remained on three core issues: control of the Strait of Hormuz, unfreezing overseas assets, and uranium enrichment. Outside the negotiating table, the US military announced mine-clearing operations in the Strait of Hormuz, while the Israeli Prime Minister declared that he would continue to strike Iran and its proxies. With the ceasefire window closing, diplomatic maneuvering and military actions are escalating simultaneously, and the situation in the Middle East is at a crossroads between war and peace.April 12 - According to a statement released by the Iranian government early this morning (April 12) via social media, negotiations with the United States will continue despite some remaining differences. Iranian state television reported that the third round of talks between Iran and the United States concluded earlier, with expert teams from both sides attending and exchanging texts again.

The NZD/USD pair has encountered selling pressure while attempting to surpass the immediate resistance level of 0.6260. The asset has seen bids after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) announced inflation estimates at 3.07 percent, down from 3.29 percent previously. It could be an indication of waning price pressure, but additional evidence is still needed to support the argument.

 

Price pressures in the New Zealand economy are increasing and have not yet shown signs of weariness. A June report indicates that an inflation rate of 7.3% is adequate to generate headwinds for families. The RBNZ is consistently escalating its policy tightening measures to combat the same. RBNZ Governor Adrian Orr has already increased the Official Cash Rate by 2.50 percentage points.

 

On the front of the US dollar, the US dollar index (DXY) has returned all intraday gains and is currently trading near the day's open at 106.60. While attempting to break over the crucial resistance level of 106.80, the DXY has encountered selling pressure. This week, investors' attention is centered on Wednesday's release of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI).

 

The annual inflation rate is projected to continue at 8.7 percent, down from 9.1 percent in the previous report. Oil prices have been on a downward trend in July, which may be the determining factor for a significant decline in the price increase index. While the US CPI excluding volatile food and oil prices may increase from 5.9 percent to 6.1 percent, the previous reading was 5.9 percent.
