US judge: Bank of America (BAC.N) has reached a "settlement in principle" with the civil lawsuit brought by the plaintiffs in the Jeffrey Epstein case.March 16 – Following last weeks agreement to release a record amount of emergency oil reserves, the International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that it could provide even more reserves if needed. IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said, "The IEAs swift action has had a stabilizing effect on the market. However, while our inventory releases are currently providing a buffer, this is not a long-term solution." Birol emphasized that for the oil and gas industry, "the most important thing" is to restore normal passage through the crucial Strait of Hormuz, which has been disrupted by the war in the Middle East. He stated that more oil is flowing into Asian markets, which are most dependent on oil supplies from the Middle East.The SC crude oil futures contract narrowed its losses to 4.26%, currently trading at 737.7 yuan per barrel, after previously falling by more than 7%.The BBC filed a motion in a Florida federal court on Monday seeking to dismiss US President Donald Trumps $10 billion defamation lawsuit.On March 16th, a $10 million profit was realized from an options trade targeting short-term interest rates, driven by this months sharp rise in oil prices and a downward revision of market expectations for further easing by the Federal Reserve. This bet, placed in January in the form of options related to the overnight funding rate, which is closely correlated with the Feds policy direction, was reflected in the CME Groups positioning data covering Fridays trading, released Monday. The data showed that selling of the options at the end of last week matched the profit-taking on the position. This bet, which existed before the outbreak of war in the Middle East, indicated that the Feds interest rates would be higher by mid-2028 than was generally expected in January. The bet turned profitable last week as the conflict caused oil prices to rise to their highest level since 2022, raising concerns about inflation and prompting traders to expect the Fed to maintain higher interest rates for a longer period.

Silver prices fell, defying the general upward trend in the precious metals complex. U.S. Treasury rates decreased substantially, despite a hawkish Fed Chair hearing on the hill on Wednesday. Despite the weaker dollar, silver prices remained flat.

 

A Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell, was on the hill for his two-day Humphrey Hawkins hearing, which is mandated by Congress. The head of the central bank said he is committed to reducing inflation and believes he has the tools necessary to accomplish it. Though Powell said he feels the economy is robust currently, he recognized a recession might emerge.

Analytical Methods

Silver prices dipped lower, slipping through support at the 10-day moving average of 21.58. Additional resistance is likely near the 50-day moving average at 22.44.

 

The 50-day just crossed below the 200-day moving average, which is a headwind for XAG/USD since a long-term downtrend is currently deemed in place.

 

The fast stochastic oscillator has issued a crossover sell signal, signaling a decline in short-term momentum.

 

As the histogram and MACD both print favorably, the medium-term momentum is becoming bullish (moving average convergence divergence). The trajectory of the MACD histogram is the positive region with an upward sloping trajectory that signals to higher prices.
