ZFX: Investment sentiment keeps positive under global pandemic

26-03-2020 04:02

Review:

On Wednesday (March 25), the sentiment in the financial market is still optimistic, mainly looking forward to the $2 trillion stimulus plan, which will be agreed by both Republican and Democratic Party soon. However, at the end of the trading day, it is reported that there is a disagreement over the expansion of jobless benefits in the plan. The three major Wall Street indexes retraced from the top of the day.

The U.S. Senate originally planned to vote on the plan on Wednesday, but several Republicans senators asked for amendments to some clauses, causing conflicts with Democrats. Risk aversion returned after the news, but US Treasury Secretary Mnuchin said that the plan is still expected to be approved in the Senate on Wednesday night and then submitted to the House of Representatives for review.

The situation of the global new coronavirus pandemic is still worrying. The number of confirmed cased worldwide has soared. At present, more than 460000 people have been infected, involving more than 170 countries, causing more than 20000 deaths.

The investment market continues to digest the Fed’s unlimited QE policy, which now has obviously increased the volatility of various assets. Stock markets has bounced back further, prompting reallocation of portfolio. In currency markets, the euro gained near 100 pips, but the Australian dollar has dropped back down after breakthrough. In the commodity market, the volatility of the gold market was relatively lower and tended to be ranging. The oil market moved like a V shape, with high intraday volatility.

ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said that the multiple stimulus measures are just “buy time”, the investment sentiment may stay positive until next week.
