In particular the Core CPI rate came at 2% whilst the expected rate was 1.9%. Following the release, the Yen appears to have strengthened, yet the positive impact appears to have been minimal following the release as the previous CPI rate was 2.3%. In the grander scheme of things, persistent inflationary pressures in the Japanese economy could potentially warrant a more hawkish stance by the bank, which could in the long run provide support for the JPY. In the US Equities markets, we note the report that was released by the FAA yesterday in which Boeing\u2019s safety culture came under scrutiny by the regulator. Furthermore, the report stated that the way Boeing managerial hierarchy was structured could lead to a manager investigating a report within their own chain, \u201cpotentially compromising Boeing\u2019s commitment to a non-retaliatory and impartial environment\u201d. Essentially, increasing the risk that safety concerns may have not been raised by employees in fear of retaliation by their managers. In conclusion, the statement could weigh on Boeing\u2019s (#BA) stock price. On a geopolitical level, we note the headline by Reuters which states that US President Biden has stated that Israel has agreed to stop its attacks in Gaza for Ramadan. The pause in fighting could potentially facilitate the progression of the proposed truce agreement, thus potentially easing tensions in the region. In such a scenario, with tensions potentially subsiding in the Middle East, we may see the developments weighing on the price of oil, as oil supply arteries may begin to re-open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"New Zealand&#039;s RBNZ to remain on hold\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FDUDUeMXJWw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>GBP\/USD appears to continue moving in an upwards fashion. We continue to maintain a bullish outlook for the pair and supporting our case is the upwards moving channel which was incepted on the 14<sup>th<\/sup> of February, in addition to the RSI indicator below our chart currently registering a figure near 60, implying bullish market tendencies. For our bullish outlook to continue, we would like to see the continuation of our upwards-moving channel, in addition to a clear break above the 1.2760 (R1) resistance level, with the next possible target for the bulls being the 1.2870 (R2) resistance line. On the other hand, for a sideways bias, we would like to see the pair remain confined between the 1.2610 (S1) support level and the 1.2760 (R1) resistance line. Lastly, for a bearish outlook we would like to see a clear break below the 1.2610 (S1) support level, with the next possible target for the bears being the 1.2470 (S2) support line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WTICash appears to be moving in a sideways fashion. We maintain a sideways bias for the commodity and supporting our case is the RSI indicator below our chart which currently registers a figure near 50, implying a neutral market sentiment, in addition to the sideways moving channel which was incepted on the 15<sup>th<\/sup> of February. For our sideways bias to continue, we would like to see the commodity remain confined between the&nbsp; 75.80 (S1) support level and the 78.65 (R1) resistance line. On the other hand, for a bearish outlook we would like to see a clear break below the 75.80 (S1) support level, with the next possible target for the bears being the 71.60 (S2) support base. Lastly, for a bullish outlook, we would like to see a clear break above the 78.65 (R1) resistance level, with the next possible target for the bulls being the 81.65 (R2) resistance ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-highlights-for-the-day\"><strong>Other highlights for the day:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We note in today\u2019s European Session the release of Germany\u2019s Gfk Consumer sentiment figure for March.

In tomorrow\u2019s Asian session, we note Australia\u2019s CPI rates for January. On a monetary level, we note the speeches by Riksbank Governor Thedeen, BoE Deputy Governor Ramsden and Fed Vice Chair Bar, which are all due to occur today.
