4月30日周三，欧元/美元在1.14关口下方维持窄幅震荡格局，市场屏息等待欧美关键经济数据落地。技 术面显示，汇价正面临关键方向选择——此前连续三个月的上升通道已触及斐波那契76.4%强阻力位， 多空博弈进入白热化阶段。 周线级别，14周相对强弱指标（RSI）仍处于上升趋势，但若本周收盘跌破1.1271（61.8%回撤位），将 确认短期顶部形成。当前1.1300-1.1370区域成为多空争夺关键区间，该区域的突破方向将决定短期趋势 延续或反转。 市场情绪：谨慎乐观中的双向风险 尽管欧元区经济数据边际改善，但市场情绪仍维持谨慎基调。一方面，意大利GDP超预期为欧元提供支 撑，另一方面，德国经济疲软引发对欧元区复苏可持续性的担忧。CFTC持仓数据显示，截至4月23日当 周，欧元净多头头寸增加2.3万手，但未突破2024年高位，显示资金追涨意愿有限。 货币政策分化预期持续发酵。随着美国3月核心PCE物价指数预计回落至3.3%，市场对美联储年内降息 预期升温；而欧洲央行官员近期频频释放"不急于降息"信号，利率期货定价显示欧央行首次降息时点晚 于美联储约3个月。这种政策差预期构成欧元中期支撑，但需警惕周五美国非农就业数 ...

Core Viewpoint - The future trend of housing prices is influenced by various factors, showing a differentiated pattern where some regions may continue to see price declines while others may stabilize or even increase [1][3]. Factors Leading to Potential Price Declines - **Population Factors**: China's population has begun to decline, with a decrease of 2.08 million in 2023, marking the first sustained decline in over 70 years. This demographic shift is expected to negatively impact housing demand, particularly in third and fourth-tier cities experiencing population outflow and severe aging [3]. - **Inventory Pressure**: High inventory levels in some third and fourth-tier cities, such as Linyi and Luoyang, where the number of second-hand homes listed exceeds 100,000 and the transaction cycle lasts up to 23 months, may lead to continued price declines in these areas [3]. - **Economic Conditions**: A slowdown in overall economic growth could suppress income growth and increase employment pressure, thereby reducing housing demand, especially for improvement and investment purposes, which may lead to price declines [3]. Factors Supporting Price Stabilization or Increase - **Policy Factors**: Central and local governments have implemented various policies to stabilize the housing market, including lowering down payment ratios, optimizing purchase restrictions, and reducing transaction costs. For instance, initiatives like "rent and purchase equality" in Beijing and significant tax reductions in cities like Shanghai and Shenzhen are expected to stimulate housing demand [3]. - **Land Market**: The scarcity of land resources, particularly in the context of ongoing urbanization, makes prime land increasingly valuable. The emergence of "land kings" is often seen as a driver for price increases, as rising land costs typically lead developers to pass on these costs to housing prices [3]. - **Economic Development**: Economic growth directly influences housing prices. In prosperous economic conditions, increased income and job opportunities boost housing demand, leading to price increases. Cities like Nanjing, Chengdu, and Hangzhou have seen new home prices rise by 0.7% month-on-month, driven by their digital economy and advanced manufacturing sectors [3].

金十数据4月29日讯，欧洲央行执委奇波洛内表示，美国的贸易措施可能会在短期内拖累欧元区通胀， 因为它们会拖累全球的经济扩张。奇波洛内周二说："中短期的影响可能会导致欧元区通胀率下降，因 为在美国宣布征收关税后，欧元区的实际利率已经上升，欧元已经升值。""贸易措施可能通过将资源从 高生产率部门转移到低生产率部门，造成与20世纪相同的低效率，这种收缩效应可能导致全球增长率持 续走低。"自特朗普宣布关税以来，欧元走强可能是决策者们最大的意外。他们原本预计欧元会贬值， 从而提高进口成本，叠加欧盟反制措施可能推升通胀。奇波洛内说："欧元区受益于避险资金流入，欧 元升值的同时名义债券收益率下降。"他还提出了一种可能性，即贸易分化可能导致"从美国主导的全球 体系逐步过渡到更加多极化的体系，即多种货币竞争储备地位"。 欧洲央行官员：美关税或引发欧元区反通胀效应 美国主导或转变为多极化体系 ...
