This weekly publication not only reviews last week’s key events but also analyzes the week ahead, exploring different market scenarios and their potential implications for traders.
The optimism surrounding the U.S. economy has started to fade. Investors and economic analysts have adopted a more pessimistic outlook, looking ahead to the future of the U.S. economy under Donald Trump’s presidency with growing concern. Those who, prior to his presidency, had high hopes for economic growth in the U.S. are now, just two months later, speculating that a mild recession may be on the horizon.
Weak economic indicators in the U.S., including sluggish consumer spending, rising unemployment rates, and lower GDP forecasts for Q1, combined with Trump’s warnings about tough times ahead, have diminished the appeal of the U.S. dollar among market participants. Consequently, stock indices and even gold prices have been negatively affected by this shift in sentiment.
In Switzerland, rising inflation rates have caught policymakers off guard, though the situation is not yet alarming. Meanwhile, the Swiss franc has been gaining strength as investors seek safe-haven assets amid increased risk aversion.
The European Central Bank (ECB) also cut interest rates by 0.25% last Thursday, in line with expectations, marking another step toward achieving a neutral rate. However, further rate cuts may become more challenging as inflation risks in the Eurozone continue to rise due to U.S. tariff threats and Germany’s new government policies under Chancellor Friedrich.
These insights are just a small portion of the expert analyses covered in last week’s issue. By reading Issue 57, you can also stay informed about other major developments from around the world.
Persian-speaking traders are deeply interested in commodities and cryptocurrencies, alongside Forex. That’s why ePlanet Times features a dedicated section, Commodity Plus & Crypto Corner, offering detailed price movement analysis, key market drivers, and expert insights on these highly volatile markets.
One of the standout features of ePlanet Times is its forward-looking approach to major economic events. In the week ahead, markets will closely watch:
- U.S. Consumer and Producer Inflation Data
- Canada’s Interest Rate Decision
- The UK’s GDP Report
Forecasts suggest that U.S. inflation may have increased 0.3% month-over-month in February, partly due to producers raising prices to counter potential tariff impacts. Meanwhile, Canada’s central bank (BOC) is expected to cut rates by another 0.25%, adding to market anticipation. A thorough understanding of these economic events will help traders prepare for different scenarios and mitigate market risks in their trading strategies.
This week’s technical analysis reports cover potential trading scenarios for major assets such as the Nasdaq Index, GBPAUD, NVIDIA, and Ripple (XRP). Additionally, in the Mind Over Market feature titled “The Mirror of Doubt”, we explore the mental challenges of trading, including the Imposter Syndrome, which often affects traders’ confidence and decision-making. Recognizing and addressing these psychological patterns can serve as a powerful guide for rational decision-making in financial markets.
For full insights, expert reports, and in-depth analysis, we highly recommend reading Issue 57 of ePlanet Times, titled “Dark Clouds of Recession Over The US”.
