Since the beginning of this year, affordable housing in many cities has begun to be purchased, and experts expect that affordable housing will fully enter the placement stage this year. Li Yujia, chief researcher of the Guangdong Provincial Housing Policy Research Center, mentioned that the two affordable housing projects, one in Huangpu District and the other in Baiyun District, are the areas where Guangzhou's emerging industries are concentrated, and the areas where young people and new citizens gather, and are relatively close to the central area.

4. Moody's: It is prudent for the RBA to keep interest rates unchanged, and the next rate cut may be until July

Nicol, associate economist at Moody's Analytics, said the RBA's prudent approach against the backdrop of uncertainty was a cautious strategy. Nicol noted that the RBA's monetary policy is still well positioned to deal with emerging issues. "In fact, if demand is flat, or if heightened international uncertainty weighs heavily on Australia, it may be convenient to maintain some room for the cash rate to fall," Mr Nicol said. "The RBA has some important data to digest ahead of its next meeting, and by keeping interest rates steady, the central bank has a head start on inflation risks. Nicol noted that the Q1 CPI data will be released before the May meeting, but expects the next rate cut to wait until July.
