Institutions: Weak employment data unlikely to change expectations of a Fed rate cut this year

Carson Group analyst Sonu Varghese stated that the poor employment data in February is unlikely to change expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts this year. He said that the report "reminds us that the risks in the labor market have not yet been eliminated." On the other hand, "even before the upcoming energy price shock and AI-related bottlenecks appear, inflation levels remain high." Varghese expects that these two major factors will "make the Federal Reserve cautious about rate cuts — it is unlikely that rate cuts will occur in the short term." The current market generally expects only one rate cut this year.

Shipping in the Strait of Hormuz has come to a near standstill, with only one sanctioned oil tanker daring to pass through.

Due to the escalation of the Middle East situation, shipping activities in the Strait of Hormuz have been almost completely halted. Vessel tracking data shows that no oil tankers have passed through the strait in the past 24 hours, with only two general cargo ships transiting. The report states that a liquefied gas supertanker, Danuta I, sanctioned by the United States for transporting Iranian liquefied petroleum gas, passed through the strait early Friday morning local time, becoming one of the few vessels to recently transit the route. Data indicates that the vessel departed after loading cargo within the Persian Gulf and experienced abnormal AIS signals or turned off its transponder during the voyage, suspected of hiding its track to evade tracking. The shipowner, Ithaki Maritime and Trading, headquartered in Panama, has very limited information available and is believed to be related to a "shadow fleet." Analysts say that with Danuta I's successful passage, more sanctioned or shadow fleet tankers may risk transiting the strait in the future. The Joint Maritime Information Center (JMIC), based in Bahrain, stated that due to the regional conflict escalation, dozens of oil and gas-laden tankers are currently forced to remain in the Persian Gulf, severely impacting energy transportation to Asia and Europe. Meanwhile, frequent vessel attacks continue to occur near the strait, coupled with reduced war risk insurance coverage, making commercial shipowners generally unwilling to take risks navigating the route.
