The bid-to-cover ratio for Japans 5-year government bond auction was 3.10, the lowest level since August 2025.February 17th - According to data from Maoyan Professional Edition, the total box office of new films released during the 2026 Spring Festival has exceeded 800 million yuan. "Pegasus 3", "Silent Assassination", and "Boonie Bears: The Big Adventure" are currently ranked as the top three films in the Spring Festival box office chart.February 17th - The Reserve Bank of Australias (RBA) latest meeting minutes indicate that the bank may need to raise interest rates more than the National Australia Banks (NAB) current expectation of one more rate hike this year. NAB analyst Gareth Spence stated that, on the surface, the RBAs forecasts and latest assessment of financial conditions suggest this. However, NAB expects inflation to be slightly lower than the central banks forecast over the next two quarters, and for unemployment to rise slightly faster in the near term. The head of Australian economics said, "In our view, this scenario aligns with expectations of only one more rate hike this year."On February 17th, it was learned from the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) that eight departments, including the NDRC, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, recently jointly issued an implementation opinion on accelerating the promotion and application of artificial intelligence in the bidding and tendering field. The opinion clarifies that by the end of 2026, key scenarios such as tender document inspection, intelligent assisted bid evaluation, and collusion detection will achieve full coverage in some provinces and cities; by the end of 2027, more key scenarios will be promoted and applied nationwide, forming a number of experiences and practices in model training, scenario application, and mechanism guarantees, effectively promoting the standardized and healthy development of the bidding and tendering market. A spokesperson for the NDRC stated that the opinion, by promoting the deep integration of bidding and tendering with artificial intelligence, improving the bidding and tendering paradigm, and enhancing the digitalization level of services and supervision, is of great significance for standardizing the order of the bidding and tendering market, optimizing the bidding and tendering market environment, and promoting the construction of a unified national market.ExxonMobil Australia (XOM.N) said it has taken steps to either not use specific benefit claims or to cover up or remove such claims when not using “synergistic” fuel.

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.
