On Monday, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) started the week with a day in the red. The benchmark index fell 0.5% to 7,108.8 points.

Will the market be able to bounce back from this on Tuesday? Here are five things to watch:

ASX 200 expected to fall again

The Australian share market looks set to fall again on Tuesday despite a solid start to the week on Wall Street. According to the latest SPI futures, the ASX 200 is poised to open the day 114 points or 1.6% higher. In late trade in the United States, the Dow Jones is up 0.45%, the S&P 500 is up 0.65%, and the NASDAQ is down 1.35%.

Oil prices drop

Energy shares Beach Energy Ltd (ASX: BPT) and Karoon Energy Ltd (ASX: KAR) could have a tough day after oil prices dropped overnight. According to Bloomberg, the WTI crude oil price is down 2.7% to US$74.56 barrel and the Brent crude oil price is down 2.7% to US$80.56 a barrel. The banking collapse has rattled the market.

ASX 200 shares going ex-dividend

There are a number of ASX 200 shares that are going ex-dividend for their latest dividends this morning and could trade lower. This includes coal miner Coronado Global Resources Inc (ASX: CRN), corporate travel booker Corporate Travel Management Ltd (ASX: CTD), and media giant News Corp (ASX: NWS).

Gold price jumps

It could be a good day for gold miners Evolution Mining Ltd (ASX: EVN) and Regis Resources Limited (down: RRL) after the gold price jumped overnight. According to CNBC, the spot gold price is up 2.6% to US$1,915.2 an ounce. Traders were buying gold due to increased demand for safe haven assets.

Macquarie rated neutral

The Macquarie Group Ltd (ASX: MQG) share price is almost fully valued according to analysts at Goldman Sachs. Following an investor tour, the broker has retained its neutral rating with a price target of $197.53. It notes that the investment bank's shares are trading above historical multiples despite the prospect of its earnings falling in FY 2023. Goldman is forecasting a 13% decline in its earnings.
