00:05Meanwhile, the dollar has reached its highest point in three weeks against the euro,
00:10and is strengthening against the yen on the forecast.
00:13Yes, traders in the European region are watching closely for the automotive tariff,
00:17and are concerned that this trade increase will hamper US growth
00:21and potentially lead to re-inflation.
00:24But they are also considering whether the tariff will be less severe
00:28than what is feared.
00:30A press conference on the automotive tariff is expected to affect the market.
00:41Yes, and we know that the dollar has been strengthening for the last few weeks,
00:47where Trump and his economic advisers are also planning to announce other strengthening,
00:52and maybe some additional sectoral tariffs in April.
00:55The euro has weakened sharply following the announcement of the tariff,
00:58and has fallen to US$1.075, the lowest level since March 5.
01:05Let's go to the Japanese yen, which has weakened by 0.42% to US$150.5.
01:12Governor of Bank of Japan Kazuo Ueda said that the central bank
01:16must raise the interest rate if the rise in food costs continues to cause widespread inflation,
01:21but warned that the basic inflation is still below the annual target of 2%.
01:26Bank of Japan is considered to be the most likely to raise the interest rate in July.
01:31Bank of Japan's new member, Jun Kokueda, also said that the interest rate in Japan
01:37is currently very low because inflation has increased,
01:39supported by solid capital growth.
01:52That's it, the US dollar and the rising interest rate
01:57are leading the currency to lose out to a number of currencies, including Asia.
02:02And the rupiah fell to the lowest level in 1998.
02:08Yes, that's right.
02:09It's enough to set an alarm everywhere, but hopefully there will be stability.
