U.S. Agriculture Secretary Rawlings: More announcements related to increased fertilizer shipments will be released.March 22 – The Australian government stated on the 22nd that although fuel imports have been impacted by the conflict with Iran, supplies remain sufficient and there are no plans for rationing. Regarding the panic buying of gasoline in a few areas, the government urged the public to refuel rationally. Australian Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen said in a television interview that as of the 21st, the countrys reserves of petrol, diesel, and aviation fuel were sufficient for 38 days, 30 days, and 30 days respectively, and fuel supplies remained "strong."Market news: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have made large-scale purchases of mortgage-backed securities.March 22 - Iranian President Ayatollah Peschizian posted on social media this evening (March 22), stating that "attempts to wipe Iran off the map are a desperate trampling on the will of a nation that makes history. Threats and intimidation will only strengthen Irans unity. The Strait of Hormuz is open to everyone except those who violate Iranian territory. Iran will resolutely confront these insane threats on the battlefield."On March 22, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessenter defended the U.S. and Israels attacks on Iranian infrastructure, claiming that "sometimes you have to escalate to de-escalate." This came shortly after Trump gave Iran 48 hours to open the Strait of Hormuz and threatened to destroy its power plants. Bessenter defended Trumps remarks, saying it was "the only language the Iranians understand." Bessenter also addressed Kharg Island, a key hub for Iranian oil production, claiming that "all options are being considered," including sending U.S. troops to control the island. Bessenter further defended the decision to ease some sanctions on Iran, claiming it was a "soft approach" to the Iranians—using their own oil to retaliate against them.

Analysis of the Silver Price: XAG/USD declines toward $18.30 crucial support

During Friday's Asian session, the silver price (XAG/USD) declines from its weekly high to $18.60, inching closer to the major trend line support. In doing so, the precious metal pares yesterday's gains while positioning itself for a favorable weekly close.

 

However, the metal's inability to breach the 50-SMA during the previous day's rally, combined with the steady RSI (14) keeps sellers optimistic.

 

As a result, the XAG/USD exchange rate may attempt for the fourth consecutive time to breach the upwardly sloping support line from early September, which was at $18.30 at press time.

 

Notably, the death cross on the four-hour chart lends power to the metal's bearish bias, suggesting a clear break of the $18.30 support, which in turn might push the price towards the yearly low around $17.55.

 

The death cross occurs when the 50-SMA falls below the 200-SMA and is often advantageous for sellers. Notable also is that the lows established in October and late September, around $18.00, could serve as additional downside filters for silver bears to monitor.

 

In the meantime, recovery moves must not only surpass the 50-SMA hurdle of $18.80 but also remain above the 200-SMA level of $19.23 in order to satisfy buyers.
