Fundamental Analysis:

Global markets have recently witnessed a positive uptrend with Wall Street indices closing higher — the S&P 500 up by 0.52%, Dow Jones by 0.12%, NASDAQ by 0.90%, and the Russell 2000 by 0.71%. The ripple effect continued in the Asia-Pacific markets, with significant gains noted in S&P/ASX 200 up by 0.6%, Nifty 50 by 1.3%, and Chinese indices up to 0.9%. The Japanese Nikkei rose by an impressive 1.9%, testing the 40,000-point level for the first time in history.

Futures for European indices point to a higher opening, with the DAX index futures trading above 17,800 points for the first time. This optimistic outset in Europe is amidst various economic announcements:

  • The Bank of Japan's Governor Ueda stated that Japan's economy is not in a situation suggesting sustained achievement of its inflation target.
  • RBNZ's Governor Orr expressed that New Zealand's economy is progressing as expected, but inflation remains too high, although it is decreasing alongside inflation expectations.
  • Deputy Governor Hawkesby of RBNZ indicated that New Zealand's monetary policy would remain restrictive to anchor inflation expectations around 2%.

Chinese manufacturing PMI dipped slightly in February, marking the fifth consecutive month below the 50-point threshold, while the services sector saw an increase. Australia and Japan reported a decline in their manufacturing PMI, indicating contraction. In contrast, cryptocurrency markets are seeing gains, and commodities, especially energy and precious metals, are trending upwards. The AUD and NZD emerge as the strongest among major currencies, while the JPY and CHF are lagging.
