Coreweave (CRWV.O) signed a third-quarter contract worth approximately $40 million per megawatt annualized.ECB Governing Council member Rehn: It could be said that we were in a good position in terms of inflation, given the latest shocks, but the signals are not the same now.On September 17th, the Bank of England cancelled its plan to sell long-term government bonds as part of a major overhaul of its quantitative easing program. Under the plan, its £488 billion portfolio would be gradually liquidated by September 2034. According to the still-unfinalized proposal, the bank would hold £120 billion of UK government bonds maturing in 2049 or later, matching them with future paper money issuance. Another £222 billion of bonds maturing before 2035 would be gradually liquidated, and the remaining £146 billion maturing between 2035 and 2049 would be sold at a rate of £20 billion per year, possibly directly to the government through the Debt Management Office. In a letter to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Bank of England Governor Bailey stated that the arrangement "maintains the independence of monetary policy" and will "maximize the effectiveness of funds by minimizing costs and risks during the programs implementation." All planned quantitative easing auctions will be suspended until April next year while consultations with the Debt Management Office (DMO) are underway regarding the terms of the sales. This postponement, by avoiding competition with government bond issuance, is expected to alleviate short-term pressure on government bond yields.On September 17, Liang Nan, Deputy Director of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, met with Yousef Hashim Aziz, Assistant Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of the United Arab Emirates, in Beijing.

After UBS announced Credit Suisse's rescue plan, the gold price (XAU / USD) corrected to near $1,970. The precious metal is estimating a cushion near the $1,970.00 support, but further correction appears likely.

 

Investors should be aware that market participants have been pouring funds into the yellow metal as a hedge against the volatility associated with a potential banking crisis. The UBS acquisition has mitigated concerns of a global banking crisis. The purchase agreement has signaled that central banks are willing to provide assistance to commercial banks in an effort to restore investor confidence.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is fluctuating around 103.80 as the market anticipates the Federal Reserve's (Fed) interest rate decision on Wednesday. The analysts at Danske Bank anticipate that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell will raise interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) despite the recent turmoil and banking sector concerns.

 

S&P500 futures have erased the majority of their morning gains, indicating that the UBS-Credit Suisse agreement is insufficient to calm global banking fears. As the banking debacle has yet to reveal its true colors, negative market sentiment would persist for some time. In the meantime, the UBS-Credit Suisse merger has reduced demand for US government bonds, which were previously regarded as safe-haven investments. This has increased 10-year US Treasury yields to 3.46 percent.
