Top Gainers and Losers: the British pound and the American dollar
Top Gainers - global market
Over the past 7 days, the US dollar index has slightly decreased. After difficulties in the US banking system due to the possible bankruptcy of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, investors do not rule out a slowdown in the pace of the Federal Reserve System's (FRS) rate hike. According to CME FedWatch, the probability of a 0.25% increase in the rate is approximately 75% at the next Fed meeting on March 22. Previously, a 0.5% increase was expected, but this option is not even considered by forex market participants. The probability of the FRS keeping the interest rate at its current level of 4.75% is estimated at 25%. This has increased investors' interest in gold. The British pound strengthened in anticipation of a Bank of England rate hike to 4.25% from the current level of 4% at the meeting on March 23. The yen was supported by good economic statistics. Japan's trade balance deficit in February shrank to its lowest level since April 2022.
