Stocks climbed as Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said the central bank has the tools to curb any inflation pressures, which are expected to be temporary as the economy reopens.

The S&P 500 notched a fresh record amid slow trading. Volume on U.S. exchanges remained under 10 billion shares, hitting another low for the year. The Nasdaq 100 outperformed major equity benchmarks as giants such as Apple Inc. and Tesla Inc. rallied. Energy producers and banks retreated. Treasuries rose, while the dollar fell.

One day after the Fed’s March minutes struck a dovish tone for the path of monetary policy, Powell said the central bank would react if inflation expectations started “moving persistently and materially” above levels officials are comfortable with. He also noted that disparate efforts to vaccinate people globally is a risk to progress for the economic rebound, which remains “uneven and incomplete.”

Meanwhile, Fed Bank of St. Louis President James Bullard said it’s too soon for central bankers to discuss tapering asset purchases as long as the pandemic continues. Data Thursday showed applications for U.S. state unemployment insurance unexpectedly rose for a second week, underscoring the choppy nature of the labor-market recovery.

For RSI side, indicator approach to 72.8 figures which suggest a over bought sentiment at current stage.

We expect that recently soared up has enacted a short squeeze which wipe out the short position momentum. Therefore, we believe market will toward to netural or consolidation movement in short term. On up way, we see first resistance at 1.194 if market move consolidation. Subsequently, pivotal resistance will at 1.199 if market beef up further which is entrenched by shoulder level of head pattern in early this year

However, for long term perspective, it still have a prosperity on long side as it stand above the resistance of “W shape” pattern. On slid side, the critical support level at 1754 around need to be defended which stand for a shoulder level of “W shape” pattern.

All told, the extra tax takes of about $2.5 trillion over 15 years would pay for Joe Biden’s eight- year infrastructure, green investments, and social program spending.

Technology shares led U.S. stocks higher, regaining favor on the last day of a quarter where they trailed the rest of the major market sectors, with President Joe Biden set to unveil his next stimulus plan.

Apple Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Tesla Inc. pushed the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 up 1.5%, while the Dow Jones Industrial finished lower with investors favoring growth over value shares again. The benchmark S&P 500 set an intra-day high, retreating from a record closing level in the last moments of trading.

Data for March showed U.S. private employers added the most jobs in six months, adding to evidence that the vaccine drive and business reopening are encouraging hiring. On the other hands, however, market shrugged off the worst-than-expectation data of pending home sales which record 10.6 contraction.

Investors, rattled this week by the meltdown at Bill Hwang’s Archegos Capital Management, are turning their attention to growth and inflation as volatility spurred by the forced sales subsides. While Europe’s struggle with inoculations and the resurgence of the coronavirus have tempered growth expectations, the U.S. vaccine rollout is surpassing targets.

On 4-hour chart, we see that euro dollar did not bounced back to our vital resistance point today that given a fragile spot from our perspective. At the mean time, both 15 and 60-long SMAs clinging it downward trend. On the other hands, RSI indicator set at 41 figure that suggest a slightly bearish momemtum for short-term.

Therefore, we do not prospect for pick up way as aforementional. For south way, daily low, 1.17, will go down as a frail but important support as it lack of price cluster below. Since, once euro dollar is going to tamp down further this support level then market could foresee another plummet ahead.

Resistance: 1.1765, 1.18, 1.1835

Support: 1.17

                

USDJPY (4 hour Chart)

USDJPY continues to perform its bullish momentum, currently trading at 110.73 which once hit 111, the one-year high level. For market side, Japanese yen extend it torrid devalution momentum which become unglglued since this year. We believe that carry trade behavior prompt this rally branza align with unstopable U.S. share market boost.

For technical perspective, 15 and 60-long SMAs have an edge over in pick up way that retain it impetus. On RSI side, indicator slipped from overwhelming over sought area to 69 figure, still suggesting a bullish guidline for short term.

Therefore, combing the terms above, we foresee yen market will still remaining it upward position. But only one concernig spot currently, yen has gained extraordinary reward since this year, so posiblity of keep picking up, we believe it will be a small-probability event.

Resistance: 110.85, 111.00

Support: 110.35, 109.8, 109.45

In addition, 15 and 60-long SMAs constantly on exacerbated way.

In the lights of points above, we expect gold market will under pressure as downward resistance and unfavorable indicator guidianc. On the slid side, phycological level at 1700 still a vital first pivot support, if stall, then eye-capture on 1678.85. However, once market go north way, first resistance will be 1722.75 which oodles price cluster place.

Daily Market Analysis

Market Focus

US stocks declined for a second day as the US Treasury yields hit a 14-month high as investors weighed the consequences of the stimulus check, potentially resulting in higher inflation. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed as vaccine rollouts and expected Joe Biden’s infrastructure spending boosted expectations of a broad economic recovery and rising inflation. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 104.41 points, slipping from a record closing high; S&P 500 slid 0.3% while the Nasdaq dropped 0.57%.

Overview of President Joe Biden’s plan:

$650 billion to rebuild the United States’ infrastructure.
$400 billion toward care for elderly and the disabled people.
$300 billion for housing infrastructure.
$300 billion to revive US manufacturing.

Banks roiled by the Archegos Capital fallout might see total losses in the range of 5 million to 10 billion. Markets are trying to find out the final losses to banks exposed to the Archegos implosion. It is hard to estimate the total losses according to JP Morgan due to the nature of the leveraged trading involved.

Main Pairs Movement

Gold continued to decline, approaching a nine- month low amid the vaccine rollouts and the rise of US bond yields. As the US bond yields rose, weighed on the outlook for growth and inflation, the non- interest- bearing Gold got pushed below $1700 level, currently trading at $1683. Moreover, the fast pace of the global economic recovery has essentially reduced the haven appeal of the metal; at the same time, a selloff in ETFs backed by gold was further eroding the support.

The dollar index hit near the highest level since last year, rising about 0.35% on a daily basis, as the US Treasury yields elevated, and stocks declined over Joe Biden’s fiscal policy. Moreover, adding to the bullish side of the dollar index, the optimistic view about the overall economy from New York Federal Reserve President also lends support the dollar index.

The Canadian dollar declined as a gauge of the US dollar climbed to the highest since last year, boosted by rising yields. The Canadian dollar also fell along with the oil price. Oil price fell along with the broader commodity complex ahead of an OPEC+ meeting.
