Several Republican members of Congress have stated they prefer using tariff revenue to reduce the fiscal deficit rather than directly distributing cash. With US public debt nearing historic highs, lawmakers believe the priority should be strengthening fiscal discipline, not restarting the "money-giving" model. Furthermore, some lawmakers are considering using tariff revenue to extend subsidies under the Affordable Care Act. This subsidy expires on December 31st, and failure to renew it would lead to a surge in insurance premiums for millions of Americans.Market news: The White House has asked Congress to reject a bill restricting Nvidias exports.Jinlu Electronics: The companys PCB products are used in battery management systems, but it does not produce lithium batteries.

Prior to Japan's inflation data and BoJ Ueda's speech, EUR/JPY is anticipated to fall below 143.00

During the Asian trading session, the EUR/JPY is fluctuating around 143.00. The Japanese Yen bulls are attempting for the third time to drive the cross below the immediate support of 143.00, as investors anticipate that BoJ Governor nominee Kazuo Ueda will discuss an exit from the decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy managed by the Bank of Japan (BoJ).

 

The Japanese government has reiterated that the administration will pursue a change in the Bank of Japan's monetary policy under new leadership in order to increase the yen's competitiveness against other foreign exchange currencies. Therefore, BoJ Ueda's speech on Friday is expected to include additional yield-widening discussions.

 

Aside from this, Japan's National Consumer Price Index (CPI) (Jan) data will remain a focal point. The headline CPI is expected to rise to 4.5% from 4.0% in the previous release. And the core CPI, which excludes the cost of fuel and food, is anticipated to increase to 3.2% from 3.0% in the previous report. By increasing wages and consumer spending, the Japanese economy is gradually attaining a higher inflation rate.

 

According to Commerzbank economists, "patience is the name of the game." If Kuroda genuinely intended to pave the way for his successor by expanding the yield range, the BoJ's decision in early March, while Kuroda is still in charge, will be the first indication of how monetary policy will evolve. If not, we will have to wait until the end of April, when Ueda will conduct his first meeting. Even then, it is extremely unlikely that Ueda would immediately reverse monetary policy."

 

In the meantime, despite Christine Lagarde's hawkish remarks as president of the European Central Bank (ECB), the Euro is struggling to gain traction. According to ECB Lagarde, "headline inflation has begun to decelerate, but they intend to raise key rates by 50 basis points (bps) at the next policy meeting." In addition, she stated that the European Central Bank does not foresee a wage-price spiral in the Eurozone.

 

It is important to observe that the ECB has increased interest rates by 50 basis points over the past two monetary policy meetings, and a further 50 basis point increase will bring rates to 3.5%.
