{"id":57831,"date":"2023-03-17T11:35:10","date_gmt":"2023-03-17T09:35:10","guid":{"rendered":"https:\/\/ironfx-com-php8.wp-dev.int.theitops.net\/?p=57831"},"modified":"2025-10-13T13:30:20","modified_gmt":"2025-10-13T10:30:20","slug":"ecb-delivers-50-basis-point-increase","status":"publish","type":"post","link":"https:\/\/www.ironfx-id.com\/pt\/ecb-delivers-50-basis-point-increase\/","title":{"rendered":"ECB delivers 50 Basis point increase."},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Today in the European Session we anticipate the Eurozone\u2019s HICP rate for February, although we do not expect it to significantly deviate from the preliminary rate of 8.5%. Yesterday the ECB hiked interest rates by 50 basis points as was expected in yesterday\u2019s report and following President Lagarde\u2019s speech during the last meeting on the 2<sup>a.<\/sup> of February. However, it is vital to mention that the ECB\u2019s market outlook has changed since the last meeting as seen in the Monetary Policy Decisions statement where there is a noticeable change in the mention of the Banking Industry as they attempt to re-assure investors that \u201cThe euro area banking sector is resilient, with strong capital and liquidity positions\u201d. The meeting was of crucial importance following the near collapse of Credit Suisse in the past few days, with many investors fearing an SVB scenario in Europe. Furthermore, we note that the ECB anticipates that \u201cInflation is projected to remain too high for too long\u201d implying that they could potentially keep hiking rates, although a noticeable distinction is that they have not clearly indicated as was the case last time by how many basis points they may hike in the future if actually so. As such the recent events seem to have acted as a warning sign that the financial industry may not be as resilient as the ECB thought it was, as seen by the statement \u201cECB\u2019s policy toolkit is fully equipped to provide liquidity support to the euro area financial system if needed\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence the bank is already sending out a warning that it may provide assistance if needed and to the degree needed should that be necessary, practically reassuring the markets. Furthermore according to Bloomberg yesterday, Switzerland\u2019s largest party said it was against a state guarantee for Credit Suisse as such and should the turmoil continue within Credit Suisse we could anticipate political backlash and a lack of support within the SNB for further aid as the Swiss People\u2019s Party holds two seats on the Federal Council.The news failed to move CHF significantly, yet highlight that Credit Suisse after the assistance received from SNB has now to regain its clientele in order to restart operations in a more normal manner. Also we highlight SNB\u2019s interest rate decision next week, at which the bank is anticipated to hike rates once again straining the Swiss financial environment. Across the pond we anticipate the US Industrial Production rate for the month of February and the University of Michigan\u2019s Consumer sentiment for March. We should note that yesterday Initial jobless claims came in lower than anticipated thus potentially indicating a more resilient labour market despite higher inflation which could provide some confidence to the Fed when they are meeting next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More importantly last night a coalition of banks including JP Morgan, Citigroup, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs announced that they would be collectively depositing $30 Billion in First Republic Bank following its dramatic fall of 50% in the past 5 days, which may support the banking sector and could boost market confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The EUR\/USD has been on an upwards trajectory since the 15<sup>a.<\/sup> of March 2023 appearing to have bounced off the 1.0535 (S1) support level. We currently hold a bullish outlook in the event that the pair is able to break through resistance at 1.0680 (R1) as it would validate the upwards moving trendline should also the RSI indicator clearly jump above the 50-midway benchmark. For our Bullish outlook to continue we could see the resistance at 1.0770 (R2) be tested, should the R1 be broken. In the event of a Bearish scenario, we may see the pair breaking the upward trendline with support at 1.0535 (S1) and the next support line being possibly at 1.0430 (S2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>USD\/CHF failed to break through resistance at 0.9325 (R1) level. We hold a neutral outlook as the pair is currently testing support at 0.9250 (S1). If the Bears continue to lead the pair, we may see a test of support at 0.9165 (S2) to validate a Bearish outlook as RSI is currently at 50 and a clear move below could indicate that the Bears are now in full control of the pair. In the event of a Bullish outlook, we could see a test of resistance at 0.9325 (R1) with the next possible target for the bulls being the 0.9435 (R2) resistance line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-highlights-for-the-day\"><strong>Other highlights for the day:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Other than the above in the American session, we note the release of <strong>Canada\u2019s Producer Prices<\/strong> all for February. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-eur-usd-h4-chart\"><strong>EUR\/USD H4 Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"874\" height=\"413\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image-73.png\" alt=\"support at one point zero five three five and resistance at one point zero point six eight zero, direction upwards\" class=\"wp-image-57833\" title=\"eur-usd-four-hour-chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Support: 1.0535 (S1), 1.0430 (S2), 1.0300 (S3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance: 1.0680 (R1), 1.0770 (R2), 1.0875 (R3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-usd-chf-h4-chart\"><strong>USD\/CHF H4 Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"878\" height=\"416\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image-74.png\" alt=\"support at zero point nine two five and resistance at zero point nine three two five, direction sideways \" class=\"wp-image-57834\" title=\"usd-chf-four-hour-chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Support: 0.9250 (S1), 0.9165 (S2), 0.9070 (S3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance: 0.9325 (R1), 0.9435 (R2), 0.9525 (R3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1443\" height=\"358\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image-76.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-57840\" title=\"benchmark-17-3-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1036\" height=\"610\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image-75.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-57836\" title=\"table-17-3-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1214\" height=\"719\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/image-77.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-57841\" title=\"morning-releases-17-3-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">Se tiver alguma d\u00favida ou coment\u00e1rios sobre este artigo, solicitamos que envie um email diretamente para a nossa equipa de Research atrav\u00e9s do <a href=\"mailto:research_team@ironfx.com\">research_team@ironfx.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Isen\u00e7\u00e3o de responsabilidade:<br>Esta informa\u00e7\u00e3o n\u00e3o \u00e9 considerada como aconselhamento ou recomenda\u00e7\u00e3o ao investimento, mas apenas como comunica\u00e7\u00e3o de marketing.
