Crypto Week: The Bullish Trap May Close at any Moment

It seems as if the situation is getting worse with every passing week. Last week Federal Reserve’s (Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell admitted to a possible recession but expressed strong commitment to take control of inflation. So, the Fed will certainly continue aggressive interest rates hikes if the U.S. economy continues to grow while maintaining high inflation. This would eventually lead to a contraction of national GDP. Goldman Sachs warned that investors are underestimating the possibility of a recession in the near future.

Weekly Summary: Powell Admitted Recession in the U.S.

Anton Bykov

The Federal Reserve (Fed) Chairman Jerome Powell has finally admitted a possible recession in the United States after a sharp hawkish interest rate rise. Such a confession was extremely hard for Mr. Powell, but it seems he had no other choice. June PMI readings that were published just before his testimony before U.S. Congress on Thursday, left investors and analysts wide-eyed as the Service PMI dropped to 51.6 from 53.4 a month before, a very sharp decline. The Production PMI plunged to 52.4 points from 57.0 points in May. If Mr.

Crypto Week: Institutional Investors are not for the Rescue

Anton Bykov

Bitcoin prices dropped below $18,000, the lowest since 2018. Low liquidity over the weekend and the absence of options to deposit money into trading accounts make the market very vulnerable. So, when BTCC ETF decided to cut its balance by 24,500 BTC, prices immediately dropped. The more prices go down the more investors lose money on open trades, and thus the desire to close trades becomes stronger. The market has witnessed the financial troubles of several crypto projects like Celsius, 3AC, and others.

Weekly Focus: Lagarde and Powell Duo to Rock Down Markets

Anton Bykov

The American Stock market continues to move deeper into the negative zone. Last week was the most devastating since March 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the global economy. The S&P 500 broad market index lost 6% last week, posting 11 negative weeks out of the last 12 weeks. This short trading week is filled with statements by two major Central Bankers that may significantly affect markets. The President of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarde is set to testify today in front of the EU Parliament.

Crypto Week: The Worst Seems to Have Become a Reality

Anton Bykov

Bitcoin (BTC) prices are sliding down towards crucial support level at $20,000. It is worth noting that Bitcoin prices have never dropped below their previous upward cycle peaks before, which is exactly $20,000 in 2017. So, any slide below this figure would certainly be an extraordinary event. Many investors are betting on this level where most of the open interest on BTC options is located. The same situation can be seen with Ethereum, where open interest is seen to be at $1,000.

Weekly Summary: Investors Hope for Lower U.S. Inflation

Anton Bykov

This week is probably going to be end in disappointment for the stock market. The S&P 500 broad market index is highly likely to close on the downside, making it the tenth negative week out of the last eleven weeks. The index was losing 2.2% by Friday. It may rebound somewhat during the last trading day of the week but this could hardly help it to land in positive territory for the entire week. There are a lot of reasons behind the deteriorating sentiment this week as U.S.

Crypto Week: Dead Cat Bounce and Miners in Distress

Anton Bykov

Bitcoin prices have been hovering around $29,000 for almost a month now. Bulls are persistently defending this level, and this persistence can be seen in the sell-off of 80 081 Bitcoins by the Luna Foundation Guard to support UST. This huge sell-off was easily absorbed by the market. However, such a bullish resistance can only postpone the upcoming plunge and make it even stronger. The downside scenario for Bitcoin was activated with the targets at $25,000 and lower at $20,000. It is only a matter of time until these targets are met.

Market Focus: Markets are Craving Support from Yellen and Lagarde

Anton Bykov

U.S. stock markets seem to be losing all hope for any kind of recovery. The S&P 500 broad market index is flatly sliding down without any signs of a rebound that could inspire investors. Maybe it is because it is the beginning of the summer season, maybe investors are not seeing any drivers for growth, or maybe everybody is waiting for the major shows of the week as U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is set to testify on the Federal budget 2023 before U.S. Congress on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Crypto Week: Bitcoin is Looking Towards $10,000

Anton Bykov

Bitcoin rose aggressively with other risky instruments after a market correction in March 2020. Bitcoin prices reached all-time highs by April 2021, or more than by 1000%, which is more than impressive for such an expensive asset. It went into correction after this and it should have ended far below peak prices if compared to previous corrections of the Bitcoin when it lost around 85% of its highs. However, this time not everything went according to this plan. A new high emerged during late autumn 2021 that made the technical picture of Bitcoin more complicated.

Weekly Focus: Oil on the Upside March, S&P 500 on Pause, Non-Farm Payrolls are on Their Way

Anton Bykov

The S&P 500 broad market index met its primary target of 4200-4350 points on Monday. But rolled back to 4150 points. The rise was fast as the index was at the 3800-3900 area last week. But even this high speed was not enough to go up further aggressively to the extreme targets of 4400-4500 points this week. We should not expect the index to perform another rapid upside this week, while it may hit the upside of 4250-4270 points. However, a positive story is needed to hit these targets.
