ATFX Market Outlook, 2020 Mar 24
Personal opinions today:
Financial institutions assess that the global economy continues to slow down and that the global recession could worsen if the coronavirus outbreak continues. According to the financial institution's assessment, the US economy could fall by as much as 50% from its peak, unemployment could rise sharply, employment could fall by 30% and emerging markets in Europe and Asia are more likely to be severely affected.
In this regard, the US Congress continues to negotiate on the second round of the stimulus package, the current negotiations are indicated to narrow the gap. If passed, the bill could unlock about $1 trillion in government funding for economic stimulus measures. The failure to pass the funding bill led to further declines in Dow futures, which fell as much as 900 points last night. The dollar fell as safe-haven funds fled U.S. assets and European currencies received buying support. Some safe-haven assets flowed into commodity markets, with crude oil futures, spot gold, and silver all recording historic one-day rallies.
