ZFX: A trillion dollars! Boost the market sentiment
Review:
On Tuesday (March 17), good news in the financial market is that Trump administration is considering launching a massive economic response package, which is reported to be over 1 trillion USD, to stabilize the economy. The three major Wall Street indexes all rose over 5%, which the Dow has again over 1000 points move.
ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said that even if investor confidence seemed to improve, but the stock market fluctuated extremely during the day, and the Dow once fell below the 20000, implied high uncertainty. US stock futures were already down in the Asian session on Wednesday.
At the White House press conference, the US Treasury Department announced that it would delay the filing of tax returns and even consider granting US $1000 to US citizens as a response to the impact of the current epidemic. In addition, the U.S. Federal Reserve further provides liquidity to the market by Emergency Lending Programs.
ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said obviously the global pandemic has not yet under control. Fiscal policies are generally more direct and effective, but it is likely to boost investor confidence in the short term only under such uncertain condition.
For the market trends, the gold market is dramatic. Gold price once again got big selling pressure and fell to a low of about $1465 but rebounded strongly. It rose to day high nearly $1554 within 5 hours. “Short covering” would be one of the reason behind. In the FX market, the dollar remained strong, and the dollar index rose to a high of 99.83. Under two major negative factors, oil prices got heavy hit. US oil (WTI) once fell below $27, the lowest since February 2016.
ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said that the strength of the dollar implied several things. Even if the Federal Reserve lowered the rate to zero and introduced liquidity measures, the dollar has not been weaken. It reflect the strong demand of dollar, liquidity tightening, deleveraging, position unwinding, capital flows to US, which all are the signs of risk aversion.
