📊 **Trade Bias** Markets are navigating a familiar contradiction — equities pushing higher while oil stages a recovery from recent lows, all against a backdrop of ongoing Middle East tension. The ceasefire narrative remains alive in the headlines, but the on-the-ground reality tells a different story. For now, the market is choosing to believe the diplomatic tone over the military one, and that selective optimism is keeping risk appetite supported. The bigger story developing this week is inflation. Global price pressures are re-emerging, and Japan is at the sharp end of it. BOJ Core CPI rose to 2.8% from 2.5% last month — a meaningful step higher — yet the yen has struggled to find sustained strength. Governor Ueda's inability to durably strengthen JPY in this environment is itself a signal: the market wants more than words. Whether his upcoming speech delivers a shift in tone is the key question for JPY crosses today. What makes tomorrow particularly important is that the macro picture doesn't sit in isolation — it collides head-on with two major data events. Australian CPI will set the tone for AUD early in the session, while the RBNZ rate decision, forecast to hold at 2.25%, carries its own risk. The consensus is a hold, but in a world where inflation is drifting higher globally, any hawkish lean from the RBNZ — even without a hike — could be enough to move NZD meaningfully. Equally, a surprise hike would be a significant event. The temptation to front-run the decision is understandable, but waiting for the data before committing remains the more disciplined approach. With CPI and a central bank decision both due, the next 24 hours could reshape several setups that have been quietly building this week. 🗓 **Tomorrow's Events — Wednesday 28 May** 🔴 AUD — CPI (Q1) — 01:30 GMT 🔴 NZD — RBNZ Rate Decision (Forecast: Hold at 2.25%) — 02:00 GMT 🔴 NZD — RBNZ Press Conference — 03:00 GMT 🟡 JPY — BOJ Governor Ueda Speech — Time TBC __🔴 High Impact | 🟡 Medium Impact__
