Fundamental Weekly Forecasts for US Dollar, EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD and GOLD (based on the article)
US Dollar - "The S&P 500 and other risk-oriented markets have extended a multi-week climb; but the fundamental backdrop to support the move is more than porous. Abrupt market moves are more likely to align to risk aversion; and the Greenback is likely to revert to a more responsive haven status. Risk or data moves this week however will be tempered somewhat by holiday trading conditions as March 25 is Good Friday for many markets."
EUR/USD - "Next week is devoid of high-importance news events out of Europe, but there are numerous medium and low-importance announcements on the docket. The highlights are German data on Tuesday, both the IFO and the German Zew Survey, while Wednesday brings consumer confidence numbers and Thursday brings PMI’s for the Euro-Zone, France and Germany. Each of these could be market moving, but given that much of this data was compiled before the announcement of Mr. Draghi, expect down-side prints to be somewhat muted while top-side data gets accentuated by markets."
GBP/USD - "In turn, a slew of positive U.K. data prints accompanied by waning U.S. interest-rate expectations may fuel a further short-squeeze in GBP/USD as there appears to be a shift in market positioning."
AUD/USD - "The correlation between the currency and the S&P 500 stock index – a benchmark for market-wide risk trends – remains elevated at 0.92 on rolling 20-day studies. Alternatively, upbeat outcomes may yield the opposite dynamic."
NZD/USD - "Considering the upcoming data, NZD/USD may continue to advance into the December high (0.6882), and the key developments coming out of New Zealand’s construction, retail spending and business services could make up for the drop in Dairy exports. If the New Zealand economy remains stable at the same time that the U.S. Dollar goes without a bid, we could soon move closer to 0.7000."
GOLD (XAU/USD) - "From a technical standpoint, gold is trading at some tricky levels as the pair struggles to solidify a break above a parallel extending off the 2015 October high as momentum continues to hold below the 70-threshold. The risk remains for a pullback in price with interim support eyed at 1246/50 backed by soft support at 1225 & our bullish invalidation level at 1194. We’ll be looking for move lower towards these levels to offer favorable long-entries with a breach of the highs targeting the 2015 high-week close backed at 1294 closely by the 2015 high-day close at 1301. Subsequent topside targets are eyed at the 2014 high week reversal close at 1293."

XAUUSD M5: 337 pips price movement by EIA Crude Stocks news event :
I was reading some article in Forbes and it was stated that 'it is the time to invest in silver'. So, let's evaluate the situation with SILVER (XAG/USD) compare with GOLD (XAU/USD).
GOLD (XAU/USD daily). Correction to bearish reversal. Daily price is located above Ichimoku cloud for the primary bullish market condition: the price is breaking 1215.24 support level to below for the secondary correction to be started with 1190.86 key bearish reversal support level as the next target.
If D1 price will break 1215.24 support level on close bar so the secondary correction within the primary bullish trend will be started with 1190.86 as the next target.
If D1 price will break 1190.86 support level so we may see the reversal of the price movement from the primary bullish to the primary bearish market condition with the secondary ranging: the price will be inside Ichimoku cloud.
If D1 price will break 1263.31 resistance level so the primary bullish trend will be continuing.
If not so the price will be ranging within the levels.
SILVER (XAG/USD daily). Bearish reversal. Daily price is located near and above Senkou Span line which is the virtual border between the primary bearish and the primary bullish on the chart: the price is breaking 15.17 key support level for the reversal of the price movement to the primary bearish market condition. Chinkou Span line is crossing the price to below on open daily bar for good bearish reversal breakdown to be started in the near future.
If D1 price will break 15.17 support level on close bar so the reversal of the price movement from the primary bullish to the primary bearish market condition will be started.
If D1 price will break 16.12 resistance level so the primary bullish trend will be continuing.
If not so the price will be ranging within the levels.
General Conslusion.
As we see from the charts above - the Silver is on bearish reversal on open bar for now, and we may see the bearish breakdown in short-term situation. The Gold is on correction within the bullish, and the bearish reversal may be possible but in the medium-term situation for example.
To make it shorter
Do not invest in silver in the near future.

"The FOMC left the target range for the federal funds rate unchanged in January and March, in large part reflecting the changes in baseline conditions that I noted earlier. In particular, developments abroad imply that meeting our objectives for employment and inflation will likely require a somewhat lower path for the federal funds rate than was anticipated in December.
Given the risks to the outlook, I consider it appropriate for the Committee to proceed cautiously in adjusting policy. This caution is especially warranted because, with the federal funds rate so low, the FOMC's ability to use conventional monetary policy to respond to economic disturbances is asymmetric. If economic conditions were to strengthen considerably more than currently expected, the FOMC could readily raise its target range for the federal funds rate to stabilize the economy. By contrast, if the expansion was to falter or if inflation was to remain stubbornly low, the FOMC would be able to provide only a modest degree of additional stimulus by cutting the federal funds rate back to near zero.9
One must be careful, however, not to overstate the asymmetries affecting monetary policy at the moment. Even if the federal funds rate were to return to near zero, the FOMC would still have considerable scope to provide additional accommodation. In particular, we could use the approaches that we and other central banks successfully employed in the wake of the financial crisis to put additional downward pressure on long-term interest rates and so support the economy--specifically, forward guidance about the future path of the federal funds rate and increases in the size or duration of our holdings of long-term securities. While these tools may entail some risks and costs that do not apply to the federal funds rate, we used them effectively to strengthen the recovery from the Great Recession, and we would do so again if needed."======
