The Swedish Energy Agency: To date, we have not seen any disruptions to the supply of aviation fuel; the impact is mainly reflected in prices.April 28th - A sharp weakening of the yen may prompt the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to take action, as the BOJ stated in a report that it will continue to raise interest rates based on economic, price, and financial conditions. Naomi Mukkara, a strategist at Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, said this marks a change in the BOJs "policy response function." In the report, the BOJ stated that foreign exchange rates are increasingly likely to influence prices, and such fluctuations could affect underlying inflation by altering inflation expectations. The BOJ does not directly target the yen, but if a significant depreciation of the yen accelerates price increases, the central bank may adjust its policy.The Kremlin stated that it would provide immediate updates if talks between Putin and Trump took place.

USD/CAD Bears In Control And Aiming At Support Zone Lows

The USD/CAD exchange rate is unchanged on the day after a succession of negative impulses drove the price into new territory to the downside and deeper into a support region as a result of the oil price rally. The USD/CAD exchange rate was 1.3431 at the time of writing.

 

Monday's 6.3% rise in West Texas Intermediate WTI crude oil to an intraday high of $81.51 strengthened the CAD. The oil price surged after the OPEC+ cartel surprised the market with a production cut of 1.1 million barrels per day to support prices, with the cartel announcing that it will reduce output prior to Monday's ministerial meeting.

 

Analysts at TD Securities observed that the Bank of Canada's Business/Consumer Surveys painted a more dovish picture ahead of the April BoC meeting, with a marked improvement in capacity pressures and consumer inflation expectations.

 

Analysts noted that firm-level inflation expectations continue to be elevated and that consumer growth and income expectations have also increased since the fourth quarter.

 

''The Bank of Canada should be pleased with these results, which indicate a decline in capacity pressures and a moderation in inflationary pressures. However, inflation expectations remain a formidable impediment to near-term relief. If growth does not decelerate substantially in the second quarter, it may be difficult for the Bank of Canada to keep rates at 4.50 percent. Analysts believe that the report is optimistic for CAD.
