March Market Rally: Banking Crisis Overlooked as Tech Takes the Lead.

TL;DR Summary
Despite the banking crisis, markets rallied in March with the S&P up 3.51%, the Dow up 1.89%, and the Nasdaq up 6.69%. The lower-than-expected inflation readings for February contributed to the gains, particularly for tech stocks, which benefit from lower interest rates. OPEC+ announced a surprise oil production cut, which could increase oil prices by $10 per barrel. Tesla reported a 36% YoY increase in Q1 deliveries. Analysts predict a chance of "retesting the October lows" but hope for a strong April, historically a good month for markets.
