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.

Silver Price Analysis: XAG/USD flirts with the daily high but upside potential appears restricted

On the opening day of the new week, silver gains ground and moves away from a two-week low of $18.00, which was reached on Friday. The white metal maintains its bid tone heading into the European session and is currently flirting with the daily high in the zone between $18.50 and $18.45.

 

The XAG/USD appears to have ended a six-day losing run and halted its recent steep rejection decline from the 200-day exponential moving average, or its highest level since late June. The area between $18.90 and $19.00 should serve as a pivot point for intraday traders for any future upward movement.

 

Continued strength beyond may spark a short-covering rally and boost the XAG/USD back to the supply zone between $19.70 and $19.80. In the meantime, oscillators on the daily chart have just begun to move into negative territory. In addition, bearish technical signs on the 4-hour chart call for caution before positioning for additional gains.

 

However, sustained buying above the $20.00 psychological level will neutralize any near-term bearish view and pave the door for a further near-term uptrend. The XAG/USD could next ascend to the $20.50 intermediate resistance level en way to the $21.00 round number and the 200-day EMA, which is now located in the $21.15 area.

 

In contrast, the $18.00 level appears to have arisen as immediate strong support, which, if decisively breached, will be viewed as a new trigger for bearish traders. The subsequent key support is located at the yearly low, in the vicinity of the $17.55 region recorded in September, below which the XAG/USD might test the $17.00 round number.
