A chart summarizing the overnight price movements of international spot platinum and palladium.On January 28th, renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted that iPhone memory prices are now negotiated quarterly, rather than semi-annually, so iPhone memory prices will rise again in the second quarter of 2026. Currently, the quarter-on-quarter price increase in the second quarter is expected to be similar to that of the first quarter. Apples current pricing strategy for the new iPhone 18 in the second half of 2026 is to "avoid price increases as much as possible," at least keeping the starting price unchanged, which is beneficial for marketing and promotion. Apple has realized that after memory and T-glass, other components may also be affected by the AI server industry and experience supply shortages.Futures News, January 28th - According to foreign media reports, palm oil futures on the Malaysian Derivatives Exchange (BMD) are likely to open higher on Wednesday morning, following gains in external markets. International crude oil futures rose nearly 3% on Tuesday due to winter storms severely impacting crude oil production, coupled with strength in Chicago soybean oil futures, which will help boost the early performance of Malaysian crude palm oil futures. Strong Malaysian palm oil exports and declining production will also further support palm oil prices.January 28th - Analyst Win Thin stated, "The Trump administration is taking well-considered risks. While currency devaluation is beneficial, the consequences could be dire if the situation spirals out of control. The foreign exchange market typically best reflects market concerns about a countrys policies and economic prospects, so the weakness of the US dollar deserves close attention. The yen should rebound as it attempts to recover the 150 level. Given the divergence in expected monetary policy this year, the currency pair should trade lower, as we anticipate a 50 basis point rate hike by the Bank of Japan and a 75-100 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve."SK Innovations reported fourth-quarter revenue of 19.7 trillion won, exceeding market expectations of 19.9 trillion won. The company reported a net loss of 4.2 trillion won for the quarter.

The EUR/GBP pair extended its recovery above 0.88 during the Asian trading session. Anticipating that the European Central Bank (ECB) will continue to raise interest rates to combat persistent inflation, the cross has depreciated progressively. Friday will see the publication of preliminary Eurozone Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (Q4) figures. Prior to the publication of these figures, it is anticipated that the asset will exhibit explosive activity.

 

It is anticipated that the preliminary Eurozone HICP will decelerate significantly from 8.5% to 7.3%. While it is anticipated that the core HICP will rise to 5.7% from 5.6% in the previous release. Weak energy prices are anticipated to have a significant impact on Eurozone inflation. In light of Christine Lagarde's prediction that inflation will remain elevated for an extended period of time, the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to continue tightening monetary policy.

 

In the interim, banking tensions are subsiding as the absence of information regarding additional collateral damage has a positive impact on the market. Chief Economist Philip Lane stated on Wednesday that ECB interest rates must rise if banking tension has no or a "relatively limited" impact.

 

Investors avidly anticipate the United Kingdom's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data. According to the consensus, the United Kingdom's growth in the fourth quarter of CY2022 remained unchanged. It is anticipated that the annual GDP will remain unchanged at 0.4%. It is expected that the British economy will undergo a severe recession as a result of high inflation and sluggish growth.

 

The Bank of England (BoE) policymakers appear confident that inflation will moderate in the near future and that the unexpected rise in February's inflation was a one-time anomaly; however, the absence of evidence raises doubts. If inflation persists, BoE Governor Andrew Bailey stated that additional rate increases would be announced. In contrast, Bank of America (BoA) analysts anticipate that the Bank of England (BoE) will not increase rates and will maintain current levels until 2024.
