Today's Thursday, the 2nd of April.

Let's take a look at the latest developments and what's happening.

🇺🇸 US Pre-Market: Mostly Negative 📉

Major technology and consumer companies are trading lower, signalling heightened risk aversion.

In the Electronic Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is down –2.73%, while Apple (AAPL) is off –0.91%.

In the Technology Services sector, Alphabet (GOOGL) is down –2.79%, while Microsoft (MSFT) is off –1.22%.

In the Energy sector, Exxon Mobil (XOM) is up +2.81%, while Chevron (CVX) is up +2.51%.

From a currency market perspective, the broad-based decline among major equities is reinforcing a risk-off environment. Against this backdrop, demand for safe-haven dollar assets is receiving short-term support, providing a favourable backdrop for a modest dollar strengthening, absent signs of large-scale capital outflows from US assets.

The crypto market is being held down at the month’s low

The crypto market capitalisation has remained close to $2.30T for the second day running, with a wide range of performance among coins: from losers such as Uniswap (−2.7%), Immutable (−2.4%) and BNB (−0.7%) to the leaders Algorand (+20%), IOTA (+6.9%) and Cosmos (+5.3%). Meanwhile, the top five altcoins and BTC have changed in price by less than 1% over the last day.

Bitcoin, at $66.5K, remains near the lower boundary of the range seen since early March, adding around $1K to Thursday’s intraday lows. With US markets closed, cryptocurrencies lack the key benchmark provided by traditional markets amid heightened geopolitical jitters. In such conditions, retail investors are reluctant to take active steps, as has been clear over the past month. We continue to monitor the $66–69K range, a breakout from which would mark the end of consolidation and set the direction for further movement.

Gold: the three-year rally may not be over yet

The Middle East conflict is weighing on gold prices amid expectations that central banks will raise interest rates to address rising inflation driven by oil prices. This seems like a knee-jerk reaction, as this is precisely how central banks acted in 2022. Moreover, it is widely acknowledged that this was a belated response. Another factor working against gold is the reduction in gold purchases, as well as the sale of gold from reserves to support national currencies, as India and Turkey have been doing recently. It is possible that many others are doing the same, but we are not yet aware.

This is a rather short-sighted approach, as current fuel prices are a shock to consumers, and this will be followed by a shock to the economy, requiring monetary policy to be eased, not tightened. However, we first need to hear that central banks share this view; for now, they remain focused on inflation.

US Dollar: holds above 100.00, awaits the US GDP and CPI

The US Dollar consolidates at the end of the week, trimming some of its earlier losses after a stellar Nonfarm Payrolls report, maintaining the US Dollar Index above the 100.00 milestone. March data showed the US economy added 178K to the workforce, exceeding economists' forecasts of 60K. Although the headline suggests the labour market is strong, traders should treat the data with a pinch of salt, as last month’s initial number was -92K, but the data was revised down to -133K, one of the largest falls since Covid.

Overall, the US jobs market added 68K people over the first three months, a relief for the Federal Reserve, which noted that the risks under the dual mandate were balanced between employment and inflation. Now, the focus can turn to inflation driven higher by the energy shock from the Middle East conflict, and the risks of it getting out of control increase the chances of a stagflationary scenario.
