On March 22, Elon Musk held a press conference to announce Project Terafab, a grand plan aimed at eventually manufacturing its own chips for robotics, artificial intelligence, and space data centers. The project will be based in Austin and jointly operated by Tesla and SpaceX. Musk stated that he will first build an "advanced technology wafer fab" in Austin, equipped with the full suite of equipment needed to manufacture and test various types of chips. Musk said that although the semiconductor industry is increasing production, its pace of development is still not meeting his anticipated chip demand. "This pace is far below our expectations," Musk said. "Either we build a terawatt-scale factory, or we dont have any chips available, and we need these chips, so were building a terawatt-scale factory." Musks project aims to support 1 terawatt of computing power annually in the future.According to Al Jazeera: The Israeli military reports a new round of missile attacks by Iran.On March 22, Apple CEO Tim Cook, in an interview with the media in Beijing, said that the development of Chinas robotics industry is impressive.

Natural Gas prices fall below $2.70 despite USD Index attempts to recover, and demand concerns grow

After a perpendicular recovery to close to $2.70 in the Asian session, Natural Gas futures have turned sideways. Weakness in the US Dollar Index (DXY), in general, has aided the upward bias in natural gas prices. Natural Gas futures appear vulnerable near $2.70 as the USD Index has demonstrated a recovery move to near 103.90 as investors become anxious ahead of the release of the United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data.

 

The Federal Reserve's decision to raise interest rates is anticipated to have a negative impact on industrial demand for natural gas (Fed). The market anticipates that Fed chair Jerome Powell's scheduled rate hikes will lead to a recession in the near future.

 

Meanwhile, Winter is nearing its conclusion and summer has not yet arrived. Consequently, demand for residential purposes to heat domestic spaces will remain low. Additionally, because residences will require less electricity to operate air conditioners, power companies are less reliant on natural gas.

 

The recent decline in the USD Index is what has given Natural Gas prices new life. The US Energy Information Administration's (EIA) inventory data, which is released every Thursday, will dominate this week's trading in Natural Gas futures.

 

Going forward, investors eagerly anticipate the publication of US inflation data in order to form a new consensus. According to the projections, the headline CPI could fall to 6.0% from the previous release of 6.4%. And, core inflation, which excludes crude and food prices, is anticipated to decrease slightly to 5.5% from the previous release of 5.6%.
