Description
Oil price war. Crude prices crash 30 percent in the worst day since the Gulf War, as Saudi Arabia floods energy markets, looking to punish Russia for obstructing OPEC-Plus output cuts. Asian stock markets plunge with the Nikkei hitting a 14-month low and Australia's benchmark index posting its worst fall since the financial crisis, while US futures trade limit down, pointing to another rough day on Wall Street. US 10-year treasury yields hit a new record low as the prospect of rates turning negative becomes a reality, while the 30-year yield goes below 1 percent for the first time ever. Over 16 million people are put into lockdown in Italy as the government takes drastic measures to stem the worst outbreak outside China. But leaks of the action cause confusion and a rush across regional borders. And finally women rally across the globe to mark International Women's Day, upping calls for equal pay and fair representation.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
