Data inflasi AS pada hari Rabu adalah pusat minggu ini, tetapi dengan minyak mendekati level tertinggi tujuh bulan, sentimen Bitcoin (BTC) bergeser, dan dolar Australia pada level tertinggi tiga tahun, pedagang memiliki banyak hal untuk dinavigasi di minggu mendatang.
Fakta Singkat
- Tingkat inflasi AS (Februari) adalah peristiwa biner utama untuk harga penurunan suku bunga dan arah ekuitas.
- Minyak mentah Brent diperdagangkan di sekitar US$82—84/barel, mendekati level tertinggi tujuh bulan, dengan premi risiko geopolitik $4—$10 yang dihasilkan dari ketegangan Iran/Hormuz.
- Bitcoin diperdagangkan di atas US $70.000 pada 6 Maret, perubahan tren potensial jika bertahan sepanjang minggu.
Amerika Serikat: Inflasi dalam Fokus
Pembacaan inflasi AS bulan lalu menunjukkan harga naik 2,4% tahun-ke-tahun, masih jauh di atas target Fed 2%.
Tingkat inflasi Februari, yang akan dijadwalkan pada hari Rabu, akan diteliti untuk tanda-tanda bahwa penerusan tarif atau kenaikan biaya energi mendorong harga kembali naik, atau apakah penurunan lambat masih utuh.
Pertemuan FOMC Maret pada 17-18 Maret sekarang dihargai hanya dengan kemungkinan pemotongan 4,7%. Pencetakan inflasi yang lebih tinggi dari perkiraan minggu ini berpotensi mendorong ekspektasi penurunan suku bunga lebih jauh.
Bacaan yang lebih lembut membuka pintu untuk pemotongan harga yang diperbarui dan potensi keringanan di seluruh aset berisiko.
Tanggal Utama
- Tingkat Inflasi AS (CPI Februari): Rabu 11 Maret, 00:30 pagi (AEDT)
Memantau
- Divergensi inflasi inti vs utama sebagai bukti penerusan tarif dalam harga barang.
- Sensitivitas imbal hasil kas 2 tahun dan 10 tahun terhadap cetakan.
- Arah USD dan harga ulang FedWatch menjelang keputusan FOMC 18 Maret.
Minyak: tinggi dan peka terhadap peristiwa
Brent saat ini diperdagangkan sekitar US$83—85 per barel, dengan kisaran 52 minggu yang mencakup $58,40 hingga $85,12, mencerminkan pergerakan dramatis yang dipicu oleh konflik Timur Tengah.
Analis memperkirakan premi risiko geopolitik yang sudah dibakar pada minyak sebesar US$4—$10 per barel, dan perkiraan rata-rata Brent 2026 telah dinaikkan menjadi US$63,85/barel, naik dari US$62,02 pada Januari.
Prospek Energi Jangka Pendek EIA memperkirakan Brent rata-rata $58/bbl pada tahun 2026, jauh di bawah harga spot saat ini.
Kesenjangan antara spot dan baseline perkiraan bisa menjadi kerangka yang berguna bagi para pedagang minggu ini: setiap sinyal de-eskalasi dari Timur Tengah dapat dengan cepat menutup kesenjangan itu.
Memantau
- Perkembangan Selat Hormuz dan sinyal diplomatik apa pun dari pembicaraan nuklir Iran.
- Data inventaris minyak mingguan EIA.
- Minyak berpengaruh terhadap ekspektasi inflasi dan apakah itu menggeser postur bank sentral.
- Kinerja ekuitas sektor energi relatif terhadap pasar yang lebih luas.
Bitcoin: tontonan sentimen
BTC telah berusaha untuk stabil setelah koreksi 53% yang brutal selama 17 minggu terakhir, dipicu oleh meningkatnya ketegangan geopolitik dan kekhawatiran tarif baru.
Namun, kemarin melihat lonjakan 8% kembali di atas $72,000, dan “indeks ketakutan dan keserakahan” kripto melonjak menjadi 29 (ketakutan), naik dari bawah 20 (ketakutan ekstrim), di mana telah bertahan selama lebih dari sebulan, menunjukkan potensi pergeseran sentimen.
Cetakan inflasi AS yang lebih dingin dari perkiraan pada hari Rabu dapat memberikan bahan bakar lebih lanjut untuk terobosan; hot print berisiko menarik BTC kembali di bawah level US $70.000 yang baru saja direklamasi.
Memantau
- Reaksi cetak inflasi pada hari Rabu sebagai katalis makro utama untuk langkah tersebut.
- Setiap rotasi ke altcoin mengikuti kekuatan BTC.
- Data masuk/keluar ETF sebagai konfirmasi partisipasi institusi.
AUD/USD: Hawkish RBA bertemu dengan angin geopolitik
Aussie diperdagangkan mendekati level tertinggi lebih dari tiga tahun dan menuju kenaikan bulanan keempat berturut-turut, naik lebih dari 6% tahun-hingga saat ini, menjadikannya mata uang G10 berkinerja terbaik pada tahun 2026.
Pengemudi adalah perbedaan kebijakan yang jelas. Gubernur RBA Michele Bullock mengisyaratkan pertemuan kebijakan Maret “hidup” untuk kemungkinan kenaikan suku bunga, dan memperingatkan bahwa guncangan harga minyak dari ketegangan Iran dapat memicu kembali tekanan inflasi domestik.
Harga pasar sekarang menunjukkan sekitar 28% peluang kenaikan 25 bp pada pertemuan mendatang, sementara harga penuh dalam pengetatan hingga Mei, dan sekitar peluang 75% kenaikan lagi menjadi 4,35% pada akhir tahun.
Bacaan hawkish ini, melawan Fed yang ditunda dan menghadapi tekanan politik yang sopan, menciptakan potensi angin struktural bagi Aussie.
Memantau
- Reaksi AUD/USD terhadap data inflasi AS hari Rabu.
- Harga ulang probabilitas kenaikan suku bunga RBA sepanjang minggu.
- Harga bijih besi dan komoditas sebagai pendorong AUD sekunder.
- Sinyal permintaan China, mengingat eksposur ekspor Australia.
FX traders have a bumper week of major economic announcements to navigate, with markets in a holding pattern awaiting the pivotal January Federal Reserve meeting, adding to that a Bank of England policy meeting, CPI readings out of Australia and Europe topped off by the US non-farm employment report. The Charts to Watch: AUDUSD – Aussie CPI and Chinese manufacturing PMI Since hitting a cycle low of 0.6525 and finding support at the December lows on January 17 AUDUSD has traded in a tight range between that support and 0.66 where multiple attempts to push higher have been rebuffed. This week’s data looks set to test that range, starting with Aussie CPI and to a lesser extent a Chinese manufacturing PMI on Wednesday. 0.66 will be the level to watch if we get a hot CPI reading, the support at 0.6525 to the downside if there is a cooler than expected reading.
GBPUSD – Bank of England policy meeting Cable has also spent the last week chopping around in a tight range, GBPUSD price action has been contained in a myriad of technical levels with resistance to the upside at 1.27720 and support at the lower 2024 trendline around 1.2650. At this weeks Bank of England meeting, the central bank is expected to gold rates steady but is will be the accompanying statement and presser where traders will look for clues as to when the bank may start cutting rates that will see FX markets re-price. US Dollar Index (DXY) – FOMC and NFP ahead DXY comes off a choppy week with a pivotal FOMC meeting on Thursday and the always market moving NFP on Friday to get things moving.
The 2024 advance in DXY has been capped by resistance at the 200-day moving average along with the July lows-October highs 50% fib level at 103.55. The Fed is widely expected to hold rates steady at this meeting, with futures only pricing in a 2% chance of a cut, but it will be the messaging regarding the March meeting (where there is a 50-50 chance of a cut) that should see some volatility in the USD as markets re-price those odds. 103.55 will be the level to watch for the next move in DXY with a break above or below possibly signaling the next trend in DXY. The weeks full calendar at the link below: https://www.gomarkets.com/au/economic-calendar/
With FX markets being pushed and pulled by market participants betting on when the major central banks are going to start cutting rates (or not) FX traders have some important risk events that will influence those expectations to negotiate this week. CPI and retail sales headline in the US, Aussie traders have the January Jobs report and for Sterling traders, UK GDP figures. The charts to watch US Dollar Index (DXY) – CPI to sway market pricing of a March cut Recent strong employment and growth data out of the US has seen the market reprice significantly lower the chance of a Fed rate cut in the March meeting, with odds currently sitting at around 19%, from around 50% only a couple of weeks ago.
This week’s CPI will likely go a long way to settling market expectations on this. DXY has had a strong run up in 2024 so far as continued Fed pushback on rate cut expectations has supported the USD. Key levels to watch this week are the 100 day SMA to the upside which has capped further upside in the DXY over the last few sessions, and the 200 day SMA to the downside for support.
AUDUSD – Will jobs bounce back after December’s shocker Last Tuesdays RBA meeting saw no cut as expected but with a hawkish bias in the accompanying statement. This was a relief for AUDUSD bulls after a break lower of the support level at 0.6525 on Monday looked like a significant decline was ahead for this pair. The RBA has a dual mandate of inflation and employment to look after, so this week’s Jobs report will be closely watched after the big miss in December’s figure.
The once support of 0.6525 has now established as resistance paired with the 100 Day SMA and will be a key level to watch with this week’s data as to the Aussies next move. The weeks full calendar at the link below: https://www.gomarkets.com/au/economic-calendar/
