US President Trump: Britain is happy with US tariffs.Foreign central banks held U.S. Treasuries worth -$1.76 billion in the week ending March 27, compared with -$14.896 billion in the previous week.Trump trade adviser Navarro: Tariffs are to protect the American people and increase revenue.April 4th, as a new wave of tariffs upends global markets, the dollar has wiped out all of its gains since Trump won the election last November. "The dollar bear market has arrived and its roaring," said Paresh Upadhyaya, director of fixed income and currency strategy at Amundi. He added that the dollar could fall 10% this year as the United States "teeters on the brink of recession." This is in stark contrast to earlier this year, when Trumps policy plans such as tax cuts and tariffs were seen as a reason to bet on a rebound in the dollar. In February, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessant said Trumps policies were "completely consistent" with a strong dollar, confirming the governments strong dollar stance. "We may be in the early stages of a structural sell-off in the dollar," said Ed Al-Hussainy, strategist at Columbia Threadneedle Investment.The dollar erased all gains since Trumps election victory on November 5, 2024.

WTI price falls below the $76 mark amid altering financial dynamics and global growth concerns

The West Texas Intermediate (WTI) price is unchanged on Tuesday amid a weaker US Dollar and muted risk sentiment. WTI fell to a low of $72.31 on Monday as a result of a strong risk-off environment sparked by the repercussions from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Banks. Since then, the WTI price has risen significantly as a result of the Federal Reserve's plan to intervene. After reaching a peak of approximately $76 on Monday, the WTI price retreated as the dynamics of the US Dollar shifted.

 

The financial system is being harmed by rising borrowing costs around the world and growth concerns are being raised. The WTI price is in a corrective decline as the narrative of China's reopening does not appear optimistic, as the country has lowered its growth forecast to 5.0%.

 

The SVB debacle exacerbates global growth concerns, as it is interpreted as the first of many financial system dings. Due to rising financing costs, businesses are struggling to make their repayments, which will eventually result in a decline in demand.

 

Despite tightened production and numerous voluntary cuts from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), the WTI price is struggling to surpass $80.

 

Oil prices are influenced by a number of variables, including the US dollar, inflation, OPEC, and global growth concerns. Considering the aforementioned factors, it is difficult to rationalize the directional nature of oil prices, but it appears that the oil market is primarily driven by development concerns.

 

Since these nations are struggling to maintain oil prices above the desired $80 mark, it will also be crucial to monitor the OPEC position on reduced oil prices.
