key of the day

Markets were once again shaken by increasing geopolitical tensions.European markets suffered around 2% after new support for oil and gas prices.On the crude oil side, Brent crude rose 7% to $115 a barrel, hitting war levels in Ukraine, while West Texas Intermediate rose 1% to $96.5 a barrel.

Meanwhile, natural gas is expected to rise 15%, reaching its highest level since August 2022 after Tehran bombed power plants in Qatar, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.In addition, Iran's missile attack has damaged the world's largest natural gas export facility, raising concerns about a global shortage.

In contrast, precious metals are declining.Gold fell 4.5% to $4,700 an ounce and silver fell 9% to $70.On the other hand, Bitcoin is also down 5% to $70,100 and the Euro is rising to $1,146.All this, on a day when bond yields are trading higher, with German bonds seeing 3% for the first time since mid-2011.

Back to the index, they lost 2% in the key session also because of the central bank.Yesterday the Fed held rates, as did the Bank of Japan today, and the Bank of England and the European Central Bank (ECB) are expected to do the same.The crisis in the Middle East not only cuts out the possibility of interest rate cuts, but also fuels the possibility of hikes in the short term.

Thus, Ibex 35 fell by 2.4% to 16,880 points, after a whole week of gains.The only companies that registered a profit were thanks to the green table all, with the exception of Naturgy (+1%).The rest is not as lucky as the energy sector.

Ibex's fall was led by Cellnex, which fell 6.7%. They were followed by ArcelorMittal (-6.5%) and Indra, down 6.2%, after Escribano called on the company's hard core today following SEPI's written ultimatum to resign.But other heavyweights such as Santander, Inditex and BBVA lost more than 2.5%.

Ibex is not alone in the crash, with red spreading across Europe as it awaits the ECB.Germany's Dax fell 2.6%, led by Vonovia (-9.3%) and Infineon (-7.2%), while France's Cac lost 1.8%, led by Accor (-9.5%) and ArcelorMittal (-6.3%).Italian Mib loses more than two points to Inwit (-19%), while England's FTSE 100 is down 2%, penalized by Antofagasta (-7.5%) and M&G (-7%).

The bad news made its way across the Atlantic to New York, although the drop wasn't as dramatic.Wall Street futures were looking for a drop of just over 0.5%, after falling about 1.5% yesterday.

After all, Asia didn't fare much better.Japan's Nikkei fell 3.38 percent, weighed down by rising oil prices and the Fed decision, while the Shanghai Stock Exchange fell 1.39 percent and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange lost 2.02 percent.Also, South Korea's Kospi lost 2.73 percent on fears of a power cut.
