Zelenskyy stated that he held a meeting with the Ukrainian negotiating team that day and instructed them to communicate with the US negotiating representatives: firstly, to reaffirm Ukraines willingness to engage in strategic cooperation on security issues, particularly in the defense of drones; and secondly, to reaffirm Ukraines willingness to undertake substantive work to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict.California Governor Newsom: Are Americans who tout "historically low" oil prices but call those worried about a war with Iran driving up prices "fools"? Trump is a liar with no plan, and he is letting the American people down.On March 10th, US President Trump stated that the US does not rule out the possibility of obtaining oil from Iran. Meanwhile, US officials stated that the war "is aimed at stripping Iran of its nuclear weapons and weakening its deterrent so that it no longer poses a threat to the United States or its Middle Eastern neighbors." Trump stated that he did not want to discuss whether he wanted the US to seize Iranian oil, but added, "Of course, people have talked about it."

USD/CHF Consolidates Around 0.9040 As Attention Shifts To US Inflation

The USD/CHF pair continues to trade lacklusterly above the crucial support level of 0.9036 in the early Tokyo session. Investors are shifting their focus to Wednesday's release of United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, making it difficult for the Swiss Franc to gain traction.

 

As tensions between China and Taiwan escalate, S&P500 futures have pared some of their gains. The market's anxiety has been alleviated by the increasing intensity of Chinese military exercises around Taiwan Island. In addition, concerns of a recession are likely to cause volatility in US equities.

 

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, stated in an interview with CNN that the recent banking turmoil caused by the dissolution of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank has increased the likelihood of a recession in the United States.  Despite the robustness and security of the banking system, the recent turmoil in the financial system is "another weight on the scale" toward recession, he added.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is protecting the 102.00 support level ahead of US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. According to the consensus, headline inflation will fall from 6.0% to 5.2%. In addition, the headline monthly CPI would decelerate to 0.3% from 0.4% previously reported. As a consequence of oil prices remaining low in March, inflationary pressures are anticipated to become evident.

 

In contrast, the core CPI, which excludes crude and food prices, is anticipated to increase to 5.6% from 5.5%. The tenacity of inflationary pressures is maintained by the resiliency of demand for essential products, as a result of a higher labor cost index. A similar event could compel the Federal Reserve (Fed) to raise rates again at its May monetary policy meeting.

 

Regarding the Swiss Franc, Swiss markets are suspended on Easter Monday. This week, the Producer Price Index (PPI) data will have an impact on the Swiss Franc.
