Chinese stock indices, including the Hang Seng Index, rallied as Alibaba said it would split the company into 6 units that would potentially be listed individually. This reflects a loosening attitude from the Chinese government toward the technology companies after the long crackdown from Beijing. On the other hand, the fresh Australian CPI showed a deceleration in Australian inflation in February; this may increase the likelihood for the RBA to discuss a pause in the monetary tightening program next week. In addition, oil prices continue to advance this week after the resolving of the banking crisis and the intensified geopolitical tension in the Euro; oil prices are further stimulated by the significant drop in crude oil stockpile, with the API report showing a significant drop in crude oil inventories reflecting strong demand in the U.S. Elsewhere, gaining bond yields in the Eurozone and the U.S, reflect the increasing confidence of investors toward the markets.
