Golden Ten Data reported on March 12 that the European Union approved funding of 20 million euros in 2024 to support the Rwandan Defense Forces in carrying out missions in Mozambique’s gas-rich Cabo Delgado province, which is consistent with the amount of aid agreed upon about two years ago. The European Council stated that the funds, allocated under the “European Peace Facility,” are intended to cover personal equipment and logistical expenses. Last week, the U.S. Treasury imposed sanctions on the Rwandan Defense Forces, accusing them of supporting, training, and fighting alongside the “March 23 Movement” rebels in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. It remains unclear what impact this will have on the thousands of Rwandan soldiers deployed in Mozambique.

Matthew Raskin and other strategists stated that this situation is similar to the classic "peso problem," where investors factor in the risk of major events with a low probability of occurring in the future. Due to fears that AI may ultimately lead to widespread unemployment, these expectations may persist and, to a large extent, will not be affected by upcoming economic data releases.
