WEEKLY BUSINESS DIGEST 1, 3/23/26
TRADER. Three “bears” (oil, gold and Fed) are now angling the “Goldilocks” US economy. Oil/gas remain problems as the Strait of Hormuz remains practically closed. Even if the war ended now, it would take Middle Eastern oil/gas facilities months to rebound to pre-war levels. Higher oil prices may be good for some, but their overall effect is a drag on the US economy. And with rising inflation, the Fed is less likely to cut rates in 2026 (maybe in 2027?). Treasuries didn’t see any flight-to-safety as their yields rose. Gold tanked/crashed; goldminers were trashed. Wall Street strategists are starting to cut their targets for 2026.
