On March 2, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov said in an interview with Russian media that some European countries hope that the Russian-Ukrainian conflict will continue. The United States has clearly stated that it hopes to end the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, but some European countries want to "continue the feast" in the form of war. These countries are preventing peace. The United Kingdom also claimed that it will provide a large number of weapons to Ukraine this year. Regarding the idea that some European countries plan to send peacekeeping forces to Ukraine, Lavrov said that for Russia, the presence of European peacekeeping forces in Ukraine means that the root cause of the Ukrainian crisis will not disappear.Israeli police: A Beersheba resident was arrested on suspicion of having contact with Iranian intelligence agents with the intention of selling sensitive information, including claiming to have access to a nuclear research center.U.S. House Speaker Johnson: Hopes to pass a “clean” continuing resolution (CR) for fiscal year 2024 (until September).On March 2, Lei Jun, founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi, talked about the issue of SU7 Ultra in a live broadcast. He said that the pricing of SU7 Ultra is to match Tesla, and the closest one is the Model S Plaid version, but the performance of SU7 Ultra is much stronger and the configuration is much higher. Lei Jun said that at that time he asked if it could be sold at the same price as Tesla, and whether it would be 814,900 yuan. Later, he tested it and found that 3,680 people paid deposits in 10 minutes. He was very excited at the time. He concluded that 814,900 yuan is a price that consumers can accept, but the sales volume may be only a few thousand or ten thousand units. Lei Jun said that after further research, it was found that consumers expected the price to be 600,000 to 700,000 yuan, but if it was within 600,000 yuan, there would be a surprise. After consideration, it was decided to set the price of SU7 Ultra at just over 500,000 yuan.On March 2, Shenzhen held a press conference on the business environment.

After falling from the weekly high above $82.50 the previous day, WTI crude oil prices remain under pressure toward $81. In doing so, the black gold represents the oil market's indecision in the face of contradictory signals, while preparing for the first positive week in five weeks.

 

As traders prepare for the key catalysts, recession concerns and fears of a supply shortage received the most attention, but the dollar's weakening may have been overlooked.

 

According to anonymous sources cited by Reuters, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, which include Russia and are known collectively as OPEC+, have begun discussing a potential output cut for the next meeting. Russia's willingness to acquire additional portions of Ukraine may have also benefited oil purchasers.

 

In contrast, recession difficulties intensified as the majority of central banks remained assertive despite recent economic gloom and fears of a supply crisis. In addition, the rumors regarding China's inability to control its recessionary difficulties and the United Kingdom's fears of further economic suffering as a result of recent austerity policies appear ominous for the energy benchmark.

 

Consequently, commodity traders are in a quandary and will pay particular attention to the forthcoming September activity statistics from the world's largest commodity consumer, China. After that, the Fed's preferred inflation indicator, namely the Core Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) Price Index for August, which is anticipated to increase 4.7% YoY compared to 4.6% previously, will be crucial for determining new directions.
