Morning Bid: Japan's FX no-show, Meta plunges: A look at the day ahead in Asian markets.

reuters.com/markets/asia/global-markets-view-asia-graphic-pix-2024-04-24/

Quick Glance: Market Volatility in Asia: Impact of Meta's Losses

The depreciation of Asian currencies against the U.S. dollar and potential actions by monetary authorities are at the forefront of Asian markets.

Post-market gains from U.S. tech giant Meta could impact Asian markets as shares dropped by 10% after trading hours.

Concerns surrounding currencies are escalating as the dollar breached 155.00 yen on Wednesday without any indication of intervention from Japanese authorities. Will Tokyo take action?

Given the current environment that led to a rare joint statement on exchange rates from the United States, Japan, and South Korea this month, no possibilities can be ruled out.

Quick Glance: Teenager Accused of Sydney Church Stabbing Displays Signs of Mental Illness, Court Reveals

A teenage boy facing a potential life sentence for terrorism in the stabbing of a bishop has exhibited behaviors consistent with mental illness or intellectual disability, according to his lawyer.

The 16-year-old is alleged to have traveled 90 minutes from his home to attack Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel during a livestreamed sermon at Christ the Good Shepherd Church in Wakeley, Sydney.

Investigators from a joint counter-terrorism team, comprising state and federal police and Asio staff, interviewed the boy in his hospital bed before charging him with committing a terrorist act.

A brief of evidence is set to be presented when the matter returns to court on June 14.

President Joe Biden is contemplating Australia's request to cease the long-standing U.S. effort to prosecute Wikileaks founder Julian Assange for revealing American classified documents.

There is a disparity in the treatment of Assange and Manning, with Obama shortening Manning's sentence while Assange remains under indictment. Supporters of Assange argue he is a journalist protected by the First Amendment who exposed U.S. military misconduct in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Quick Glance: Dollar Strength Impacts Currencies, Global Rate Expectations Decline

The yen struggled against a long-standing low, while the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields remained near highs as bets on U.S. rate cuts decreased.

The euro experienced a significant weekly decline due to the resurgent dollar and expectations of rate cuts by the ECB in June.

The Japanese currency faced a weekly decline and has significantly dropped since the beginning of the year.

The dollar's strength also had an impact on the Australian and New Zealand dollars.

reuters.com/markets/currencies/yen-feels-heat-us-treasury-yields-climb-2024-04-09/

Quick Glance: Dollar Stagnates Despite Rising US Treasury Yields

The dollar displayed hesitation on Tuesday as it did not receive significant support from the increase in U.S. Treasury yields, maintaining pressure on the yen near multi-decade lows and keeping traders vigilant for potential interventions.

The greenback rose by 0.03% to 151.87 yen, near a 34-year high of 151.975 yen from the previous month, while Japanese officials intensified efforts to defend the currency.

Despite the uptick in U.S. Treasury yields, the dollar failed to garner substantial backing as traders reevaluate their outlook on the pace and extent of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts anticipated in the latter part of this year.

The robustness observed in commodity prices appears indicative of - one could almost label it as - a global reflation trade. In other developments, the Aussie declined by 0.01% to $0.6604, and the Chinese yuan was positioned at 7.2437 per dollar in the offshore market.
