Market Flash - US-BIP (Helaba)
|
|
|
Im ersten Quartal wuchs die US-Volkswirtschaft um annualisiert 2,0 % und damit etwas wenig stark als erwartet. Gegenüber dem Vorquartal ist es aber eine Beschleunigung. Der Konsum legte um 1,6 % zu und damit etwas dynamischer als erwartet. Zudem zeigt der Arbeitsmarkt (Jobless Claims gesunken) keine Schwächesignale. Im Hinblick auf die US-Geldpolitik dürften die Erwartungen sinkender Zinsen in diesem Jahr keinen Rückenwind bekommen. Erst jüngst hatte die Fed das Leitzinsniveau unverändert gelassen..

Iran-Krieg als Ende des Petro-Dollars? Nur alter Wein in neuen Schläuchen! (DZ Bank)
|
|
|
Die Diskussion über das (vermeintliche) Ende der Vormachtstellung des Dollars gehört längst zum Alltag am Devisenmarkt. Mit dem Ausbruch des Iran-Kriegs schienen plötzlich alle USD-Zweifel wieder vergessen und die US-Währung war weltweit wieder als ultimativer sicherer Hafen begehrt. Die jüngste Flucht in die Sicherheit und insbesondere die Liquidität des Dollars ist unbestreitbar. Dennoch kursiert die These, dass der Konflikt im Persischen Golf den Wendepunkt für die globale USD-Rolle darstellen könnte. Dreh- und Angelpunkt ist hierbei der „Petro-Yuan“, der den „Petro-Dollar“ verdrängen soll, was auf die USD-Dominanz in anderen Bereichen ausstrahlen würde..

Iranian Currency Hits All-Time Low As Tehran Threatens 'Unprecedented' Response To US 'Maritime Piracy'
Via The Cradle
Iran's currency plummeted to a record low on Wednesday, dropping to 1.8 million against the dollar following the brutal US-Israeli war, coinciding with uncertainty over the fragile truce and rising energy prices worldwide.
The currency began a sharp descent two days ago after several weeks of artificial stability. During the initial weeks of the US-Israeli war on the Islamic Republic – which broke out on February 28 – the rial remained relatively steady, largely due to a total halt in imports and minimal market trading.

Hundreds of textile workers have been laid off, according to Iran's Shargh newspaper. According to ISNA, in the last two days, the rial has plummeted by 15 percent.
