1.2 The Key Positives & Negatives

1.3 Underlying Commodities Analysis:

The price of gold reached its highest level in six weeks on Wednesday as investors flocked to safe-haven investments and market tension changed expectations for central banks' plans for interest rates. Once shares of Credit Suisse, a Swiss bank with significant American and international operations, fell by more than 20%, concerns about a wider financial crisis increased. After Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank failed earlier in the week, it follows. This week, the metal has increased by more than 3% due to rumors that the Fed may decide to suspend its tightening campaign in order to prevent more threats to the financial system. In keeping with projections, recent statistics also revealed that the US annual inflation rate decreased further in February to 6%, the lowest level since September 2021.

Midway through March, as investors fled to the protection of bullion assets due to worries about the state of the world's banks, silver futures rose to over USD 22.2 per ounce, the highest price in more than a month. Notwithstanding its warning of substantial weakness, the Saudi National Bank declined to invest in Credit Suisse further, escalating concerns about the viability of the European financial system in the wake of the failure of large American bankers and in advance of the ECB's accelerated quantitative tightening. Money markets priced equal possibilities for the Fed to raise its funds rate by a gradual 25 basis points and keep them unchanged at the central bank's next meeting as a result of the ongoing financial crisis. In the meantime, producer prices in the US decreased more slowly than anticipated, giving rise to optimism that inflation in the US economy may be declining.
