Yesterday, the US Federal System published protocols, from which it became clear that many members of the regulator are in favor of curtailing the purchase of exchange-traded assets this year: the Central Bank will reduce cash injections into the financial market, slowing down the speed of the dollar printing press. This led to a fall in many market assets, and today only the dollar and gold are becoming more expensive. The value of the dollar against the main world currencies increased by 0.6%, and the precious metal – by 0.2%. Oil prices accelerated the decline on Thursday, Brent quotes fell to $65.58 per barrel, and WTI fell to $62.53. Many other commodities, as well as stocks and cryptocurrencies, also showed a decline. American stock exchanges also panicked. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell to 34,820, the NASDAQ to 14,522, and the S&P 500 index to 4,399. This was the worst daily decline in a month. Following this, Asian stock exchanges also collapsed: the stock index of South Korea fell by 2%, the index of the Hong Kong platform – by 2.2%, as well as other indices. European markets also opened with a decline.
