According to Russian reports, the next trilateral meeting between Russia and Ukraine may not be held in Geneva.Atlanta Federal Reserve President Raphael Bostic said on Wednesday that the rift between the Federal Reserve and the White House has begun to erode public trust in the central banks apolitical position. This is one of the most direct warnings yet from a senior monetary policy official about the consequences of Trumps hawkish stance on the Fed. In his farewell address before retiring from the Atlanta Fed at the end of February, Bostic said his colleagues within the Fed system remain committed to keeping their work separate from politics. "But my visits over the past few months have made it clear that the legal and verbal battles surrounding the central bank have led people from all walks of life to question the Feds independence, which is a serious concern." Bostic is not the only Fed official this year to emphasize the importance of central bank independence, but no one has warned as directly as he did on Wednesday that the current controversies could undermine public trust in the institution.The vote count showed that the French government survived its first vote of no confidence in parliament.February 26 - According to the Cuban Embassy in the United States, the Cuban Ministry of the Interior issued a statement saying that when a border patrol vessel approached a U.S. speedboat for identification checks, the crew of the speedboat opened fire on the Cuban personnel, injuring the Cuban patrol vessels commander.

The basic metal is anticipated to continue under the control of bears in light of bearish market mood. The US dollar index (DXY) is poised for a fresh upward surge as investors have begun buying the DXY in response to Federal Reserve (Fed) chair Jerome Powell's hawkish remarks on interest rate guidance at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium.
