ZFX: Crisis continues, the fourth market halt in two weeks

19-03-2020 05:27

Review:

On Wednesday (March 18) the financial markets were panic again. Even though the Trump administration launched the economic stimulus package which over $1 trillion, it failed to relieve the worry of the global pandemic. The three major Wall Street indexes plummeted again, triggering the market halt again. The Dow once plunged more than 2000 points, eventually fell 6.3%, and closed below the 20000.

The oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia continued to suppress the oil market. US oil (WTI) dropped more than 20%, reached near $20.

ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said, as has been mentioned, the uncertainty is still extremely high and investor confidence is very weak. No one can predict the economic outlook so that all the policies will just have short-term effect only.

The global pandemic has not yet under control. It has raged in more than 160 countries and more than 200000 people were infected, causing nearly 9000 deaths. Investment market is collapsing and the global economy is gradually coming to “frozen” condition. Many investment banks have made predictions and most of them believe that the global economy will go into a severe recession.

Besides the fluctuations in the gold market and the sharp rise of dollar, oil market has made the history. Oil prices fell to their lowest level in 18 years on Wednesday. Saudi Arabia continued its direction and claimed to increase production, together with the gloomy situation, making the US oil (WTI) once trading at around $20, which falling more than 25%.

ZFX analyst Jacob Leung said that, if the oil price war continues, we should be aware of the other “Black Swan” once again.
