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.

USD was ultimately flat in a choppy session on Thursday after hotter-than-expected US CPI data. The US Dollar Index (DXY) hitting briefly breeching the resistance at 102.63 to hit a high of 102.76. This proved to be another false breakout of this level with DXY gradually retracing for the rest of the session to unchanged levels.
JPY outperformed, after an initial spike higher in USDJPY above 146 after the CPI reading, the retracement was more profound in this pair with it ultimately trading just above the psychological 145 level. A report did hit the newswires that said the BoJ is considering lowering its price outlook for FY2024 to the middle 2% range, though with dovish BoJ expectations being priced in it didn’t deter the Yen bulls. Risk sensitive currencies GBP and AUD had a mixed reaction.
GBPUSD making gains ahead of the UK GDP reading today. AUDUSD posting losses despite better than expected trade data that seemed to be interpreted as more evidence of a slowing Aussie economy. Gold again tested the 2040 USD an ounce resistance before a spike in the USD post CPI saw a steep decline to a low of 2013.
Early in the APAC session the Gold bulls look keen to test this level again with XAUUSD rebounding to around 2035. This will be a key level to watch for Gold traders.
USD ultimately ended lower on Monday with the US Dollar Index (DXY) first testing the resistance at 102.57 to the upside before reversing course to test the support at 102 to the downside. A risk on equity markets and some dovish developments. Data saw the NY Fed Survey show lower than expected inflation expectations.
There was also a dovish call from Bank of America regarding the Feds holdings of US Treasuries along with what was seen as dovish comments from Fed members Bostic and Logan all weighing on the Greenback. JPY bounced back against the USD after its weak start to 2024. USDJPY falling from highs of 144.92 to lows of 143.67 before finding some support.
Possible positioning before todays Tokyo CPI figure and a fall in US yields seemingly the drivers. CHF also saw decent gains against the USD and EUR after a hotter than expected December Swiss CPI print where the year-on-year inflation rate rose to 1.7% against an expected 1.5% Crude Oil prices were a big mover with USOUSD dropping almost 3% as a result of sharp price cuts by top exporter Saudi Arabia stoked demand fears. There was also a reported rise in OPEC output offsetting any supply worries generated by the ongoing tension in the Middle East.
USOUSD finding support at the 70 USD a barrel support level for now, the next level lower to watch will be the major support at 67 USD a barrel.
The recovery in strength on the DXY has led to Gold reversing strongly from the all-time high of 2088 which was reached at the end of 2023. Last week, the US employment data was released stronger than expected with the Non-Farm employment change at 216K (Forecast: 168K), however, wage inflation remained unchanged at 0.4%. This set of data is likely to push back the anticipated timeline for potential Fed rate cuts, from March to May, which could see further upside potential for the DXY.
Gold is currently trading along the 2032 price level which coincides with the 50% Fibonacci retracement. If the DXY continues to climb, further downside can be expected for Gold. Look for the price to test the bullish trendline at the 2020 price level to signal further downside, with the next key support level at 2007.
Beats in US employment data ahead of today’s key Non-farm payroll figure saw the US Dollar Index eke out another gain after weakness in the APAC session reversed in the European session. DXY up for the 5 th straight day, having its longest winning streak since September and it’s best start to a year since 2005. DXY hit a high of 102.53, still being held from further gains by the resistance at 102.57, a level that could be under pressure in the US session if the NFP report mirrors the beats in the ADP figure and unemployment claims released on Thursday.
The Euro was the G10 outperformer on Thursday with a spike in Eurozone yields after beats in French, German and Spanish PMI readings ahead of today’s Eurozone CPI figures. EURUSD continued its bounce off the psychological 1.09 support level, hitting a high of 1.0972 and keeping the upward trend channel intact that has been forming since October. With EZ CPI and NFP ahead today these will be key levels to keep an eye on.
JPY was the G10 underperformer with USDJPY rallying within a whisker of the big figure at 145, Yen also showing weakness against the EUR as both US and EZ yields rallied, increasing yield differentials against their Japanese counterparts.
USD saw weakness in Wednesday’s session with a risk on equity market and only a marginal move higher in yields weighing on the Greenback ahead of today’s key US CPI report. There was little in the way of major US data releases but some hawkish leaning comments late in the session from the Fed’s Williams stemmed losses. The US Dollar Index (DXY) did make another attempt to breach the 102.57 resistance, but for the 5 th time this year was again rejected, this will be a key level to watch over todays CPI report.
EUR moved higher with EURUSD heading into the APAC session at highs of around 1.0970. EUR was supported by comments from the ECB's De Guindos who warned the rapid pace of disinflation seen in 2023 is likely to slow down in 2024 and Schnabel who said it is too early to discuss rate cuts. JPY was the G10 underperformer after Japanese wage data came in much softer than expected, throwing cold water on expectations of the BOJ normalizing rates.
USDJPY following the US10Y-JP10Y rate differential higher and breaching the psychological 145 level. GBP also saw gains vs USD, taking advantage of a weaker USD and a risk-on session in equities. BoE Governor Bailey spoke in the UK session, pushing back on rate cut expectations while stressing the importance of returning inflation to target.
Ahead today the much-awaited US CPI report which will shape market expectations of the Feds next move and should get FX markets moving.
