🚀 Market Focus Shifts to U.S.-Iran Talks Amid Inflation Concerns Foreign exchange analyst Giuseppe Dellamotta noted that the market's attention is currently centered on the U.S.-Iran negotiations. According to Jin10, the inflation data for March, widely attributed to the ongoing conflict, is likely to be overlooked as the outcome of the talks takes precedence. While there is significant divergence in predictions for the overall CPI, forecasts for the core CPI are more aligned. The Federal Reserve maintains a neutral stance but has indicated readiness to tighten policies further if inflation expectations rise or if the conflict extends longer than anticipated. The market anticipates a 7 basis point easing by the end of the year, suggesting no changes in interest rates are expected in 2026. #USIranTalks#InflationConcerns#ForeignExchange#CPI#CoreCPI#FederalReserve#InterestRates#MarketFocus#InflationData#PolicyTightening

🚀 JGBs Decline Amid Inflation Concerns Following U.S.-Iran Peace Talks Collapse Japanese Government Bonds (JGBs) experienced a decline as renewed inflation concerns emerged after the failure of peace talks between the United States and Iran. Wall Street Journal (Markets) posted on X that the breakdown in negotiations has heightened geopolitical tensions, contributing to market volatility. The unsuccessful talks have led to increased uncertainty in the global markets, with investors worried about potential disruptions in oil supply and subsequent inflationary pressures.
