The Central banks continue to battle inflation and Traders continue to assess the Fed\u2019s tightening policy.<\/p><p>Fed member Bullard indicated the Fed needs to move more quickly; boosting the Dollar strength as he projects a 75bps as early as the May meeting. RBNZ Governor Orr gave a more hawkish outlook on Monday as he expects to be implementing more rate hikes in the quarter ahead.<\/p><p>The geopolitical tensions renew as Russia embarks on a new campaign as they attack Donbas. President Vladimir Putin brags that sanctions against Russia have failed to suffocate their plans, pointing to a long future of uncertainty for investors. The Shanghai covid deaths continue to surge adding to economic uncertainty for the markets in the near term as China continues to enforce lockdowns.<\/p><p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KK5zNF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dollar index <\/a>soared by +0.11% as prospects of an aggressive Fed rate hiking boosts the Dollar strength. The index made a new 2-year high after sweeping above 101.00 high in the early European session. A break above that area may open room for further upside towards 102.00 psychological resistance. Investors focus on the Biden call with allies and Housing data for March.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3muBo0r\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AUDJPY<\/a> surged by +1.30% early European session post hawkish RBA meeting minutes indicating interest rates hikes could be experienced earlier than forecasted. The fundamentals have boosted the AUD currency in the near-term while rising commodity prices push the commodity-based pair higher. The pair broke the 94.35, a 22 March high making a fresh 7-year high at 94.95. AUDJPY reinforces bullish momentum and upside gains may target a 98.00 near-term barrier.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2OX9krx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NZDJPY<\/a> jumped higher by +1.21% making a new monthly high ahead of the Global Trade Price Index. The pair made a new monthly high at 86.84 although bulls remain capped by the 87.00 psychological barrier.<\/p><p>Governor Orr also boosted the hawkish sentiment in the near term. The BoJ remains neutral on the policy as the Yen tumbles to multi-year lows.<\/p><p>European stocks opened lower ahead of Wednesday\u2019s European inflation data. The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3tRK8n7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dax<\/a> was down by -0.77% and bears may target 13500 as ECB decides on tightening. The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KJ8GWF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CAC40<\/a> dropped by -0.70% as the short-term rally remains short-lived. The index may retest 6400, the monthly low if 6600 continues to hold.<\/p><p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3JcZ7OZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FTSE<\/a> dropped by -0.17% as bulls remain capped by 7700 near-term high and a break below 7500 may reinforce a bearish outlook. Investors watch out for Euro CPI on Thursday.<\/p><p>US stock futures edged lower as Treasury yields soars due to inflation fears. The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3w55Yqa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nasdaq futures<\/a> tanked by -0.58% as bulls found a near-term resistance at 14000. <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3MYsB5E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">S&amp;P500<\/a> edged lower by -0.38% as bears breaks below a 4400.00 near-term support pre-market bell. The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KYwtBV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dow Jones Industrial index l<\/a>ost -0.26% and bears may target 34000 near-term support.<\/p><p>The Benchmark <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3uisBoi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">US 10-year yield<\/a> rose +1.08% as bulls attempt to reclaim 3.00%. The Fed member Bullard\u2019s hawkish sentiments caused the boom as inflation worries continue to grow. A room for upside movement remains relevant towards 3.26% unless the yields fall below 2.65%.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Midday Update Markets were agile early Tuesday morning as investors resume trading after the Easter break.
