Cooler US Inflation, Geopolitical Oil Shock, & Central Bank Divergence

1. U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) for March slowed to 4.0%, lower than the 4.7% forecast, potentially influencing The Fed's interest rate policy.
2. WTI crude oil plunged 3% amid geopolitical tensions with Iran, and the IEA stated it is prepared to tap into emergency oil reserves if necessary.
3. Central banks show divergent signals as the ECB states no intention to tighten, while a Fed official (Goolsbee) suggests rate cuts could be postponed if inflation remains high.
