The Iran war caused oil prices to skyrocket by nearly 50% to US$95 per barrel. Coupled with February's PPI exceeding expectations, the pressure for a rebound in U.S. inflation has intensified. The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% in March, raised its inflation forecast for 2026 to 2.7%, and still adhered to the path of cutting interest rates once throughout the year. 68% of economists expect that high oil prices will drag down GDP growth by 0.25-0.5 percentage points, and interest rate cuts are expected to be postponed to the spring of 2027.

The risk of stagflation in Japan has increased, and the Japanese yen has become the core financing currency for global arbitrage. The strategy of borrowing the Japanese yen to buy the currencies of energy exporting countries has returned more than 6% during the year. We need to be alert to the risk of violent appreciation of the yen triggered by the escalation of conflicts, and pay attention to the three major variables of the central bank's rhetoric, oil prices, and wages.
