The ongoing conflict involving the United States, Iran, and Israel has entered its third week, causing significant disruptions in the energy commodities market. According to BlockBeats, the rising oil prices are contributing to increased inflation, which in turn affects corporate profitability and challenges market stability. As the situation unfolds, seven major central banks are set to announce their interest rate decisions next week, adding to the uncertainty. The Federal Reserve is at the forefront of market attention. On Thursday at 02:00 UTC+8, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will release its interest rate decision and economic projections summary. This will be followed by a monetary policy press conference with Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at 02:30 UTC+8. Market expectations suggest that the Fed will maintain current interest rates, influenced by recent macroeconomic developments. With Powell's penultimate meeting approaching, a balanced and cautious tone is anticipated. Despite this, focus remains on the Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) and the dot plot, as expectations for two rate cuts have diminished following the surge in oil prices. Other central banks are also scheduled to announce their rate decisions: the Reserve Bank of Australia on Tuesday at 11:30 UTC+8, the Bank of Canada on Wednesday at 21:45 UTC+8, the Bank of Japan on Thursday (time to be determined), the Swiss National Bank on Thursday at 16:30 UTC+8, the Bank of England on Thursday at 20:00 UTC+8, and the European Central Bank on Thursday at 21:15 UTC+8. These decisions will have unpredictable impacts on global market liquidity. Next week will also see the release of key economic data: U.S. industrial production for February on Monday at 21:15 UTC+8, API crude oil inventory data on Wednesday at 04:30 UTC+8, U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) for February on Wednesday at 20:30 UTC+8, initial jobless claims and the Philadelphia Fed manufacturing index on Thursday at 20:30 UTC+8. These indicators will provide insights into inflation trends, labor market resilience, and manufacturing recovery, influencing policy expectations for the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank, as well as global asset pricing. Additionally, the NVIDIA GTC 2026 conference will take place from March 16 to 19 in San Jose, California. This prominent annual event in the AI sector will feature a keynote by Jensen Huang, focusing on comprehensive AI updates, including chips, software, models, and applications. The market is eagerly anticipating Huang's announcement of a groundbreaking new chip, potentially optimized for inference and agentic AI, addressing challenges related to token costs, ROI, and energy efficiency.

Recent data from Santiment reveals that wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC now control 68.17% of Bitcoin's total supply, marking an increase from 68.07% a week ago. According to ChainCatcher, this accumulation is seen as a 'positive reversal' and a bullish signal. A week prior, whales sold approximately 66% of their holdings when the price surpassed $74,000. Meanwhile, smaller wallets, particularly those holding 0.01 BTC, have been steadily increasing their holdings, especially as the price fell below $70,000. Santiment cautions that the combination of retail buying and whale selling has historically indicated that corrections may not be over.
