March 26, 2018.
The FX and commodities markets responded to the wave of selling in the global equity markets sending the dollar sharply lower on trade war fears while commodities led by Gold moved higher and the JPY was again the go to place for the troubled investors. US markets closed Fridays at their lows signaling a weak open for the Asian session Monday and more downside for the dollar over the weekend. More than 1 trillion dollar had been whipped out of global equity markets over the last week, the worst performance since 2016.
There is no important news on the agenda Monday.
