The rate hike is coming. But what does it mean for markets? We start with the big upcoming event and then continue to the slippery nature of oil prices before previewing other events in the Ides of March.
Fed fever: The NFP cemented the rate hike but the US dollar dropped. What happened? Moving forward, can we expect a hawkish hike or a dovish one? How many hikes will we see in 2017? We tackle these questions and try to provide some answers.
Crude Crash: Oil prices tumbled down quite rapidly. It seems that barrels of oil were sitting on a barrel of explosives and the match finally came to burn them. We analyze the supply/demand balance as well as expectations and prices moving forward.
Preview: Apart from the big Fed meeting, we have three more rate decisions, elections in the Netherlands and more.
