Market Drivers

① Trump hints at "Seizing the Hormuz Oil," causing oil prices to surge

Multiple media outlets, including Forbes, report: Trump stated the U.S. will "Take the Oil," and said "give it a little more time" before executing. BBC also reports that the U.S. can "easily" open the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's geopolitical risk continues to rise, and institutions are taking the opportunity to go long on crude oil futures (CL).

② Fiscal Year 2027 Budget: Major increase in military spending, significant cuts to civilian programs

White House budget documents show: Defense budget request reaches $1.5 trillion (a record high), F-35 fighter jets increased from 47 to 85 units, and the "Golden Dome" missile defense system allocated $17.5 billion. At the same time, a proposal to cut non-defense spending by 10% and cancel nearly 30 Department of Justice grants. Fiscal expansion and a strong military stance are confirmed, with inflation expectations reinforced again.

③ U.S. Non-farm Payrolls and Unemployment Rate data rebound beyond expectations, driven by end of strikes and rising temperatures

March non-farm employment added 178k jobs, and the unemployment rate was 4.3%. After the data release, BTC surged then retraced, testing the 15-minute support at 66,600. Healthy employment data will strengthen the Fed's case for rate hikes to curb inflation, although the latest news suggests the Fed is inclined to keep policy "on hold." However, market bears continue to add positions, wary of key support levels breaking in the future.
