We are finally starting to see some relief in interest rates and the DXY N/A% following yesterday's FOMC meeting and the Treasury's quarterly refunding announcement. BTC -1.92% has rebounded from yesterday's low of $56.5k and is now trading just above $59k, while ETH -2.33% is attempting to break through $3k resistance. SOL -2.72% has outperformed, gaining 10% compared to BTC yesterday and is now trading just below $140. The market is showing decent breadth...
Risk markets were selling off before today's FOMC meeting where it was unanimously voted to keep interest rates steady. The Fed announced it would be reducing the speed of its balance sheet taper from $60 billion per month to $25 billion per month, a larger than expected reduction. Following the announcements and Chair Powellâs comments, yields turned sharply lower with the US10Y falling 9 basis points while equity indices rose....
We are witnessing a continuation of the recent weakness in crypto markets today, with BTC -1.92% now testing $60k, ETH -2.33% just below $3k, and SOL -2.72% dipping under $130. The broader altcoin market is experiencing even more pronounced declines, with very few names posting a green candle today. The market was pushed lower in the overnight hours following a disappointing debut from the Hong Kong ETFs (more on that below). However, this...
Investors will have a lot to digest this week, including various data releases such as consumer confidence, ADP Employment, JOLTS, and non-farm payrolls. Likely more important is the FOMC meeting and Treasury Quarterly Refunding Announcement (QRA), both set for Wednesday. Equities are gaining to start the week with the SPY -0.82% and QQQ -1.86% both up approximately 0.30% as the DXY N/A% (-0.44%) slides after the BOJ intervened to support the Yen against the dollar. Crypto assets are struggling so...
Major equity indices are rallying on the back of solid earnings, with both the ^SPX -0.82% and QQQ -1.86% up over 1%. Meanwhile, crypto markets are churning lower, which is understandable as we should not expect crypto to rally alongside equities during an earnings-driven market. Crypto remains an apparently undecided market ahead of next week's FOMC meeting and the Quarterly Refunding Announcement (QRA), evidenced by another day of ETF outflows and a...
WEEKLY RECAP Crypto funding was relatively unchanged week-over-week, with a 4% decrease to $138 million, while deal count saw a larger decrease, falling 29% to 25 deals. Infrastructure deals comprised 73% of total funding and Web3 and Gaming combined for 26%, with remaining categories making up the last 1%. As highlighted in our Q1 Funding Report, Series A funding has been a standout deal stage this year, and this week...
BUYERS ON STRIKE Last week, we discussed our immediate-term cautious approach to the crypto market, highlighting recent geopolitical tensions, tax-related selling, negative fiscal flows, and the persistent rise in real yields as reasons for a more risk-averse positioning (albeit relative, as holding 7.5% in cash and the rest in crypto is hardly considered risk-averse in most circles). This uncertainty has persisted into this week, evidenced by what we consider an...
U.S. equity indices are under pressure today following disappointing economic growth in conjunction with hotter-than-expected prices paid, sparking stagflation fears and reducing the chances of rate cuts. The SPY -0.82% has declined 0.91% to test $501 and the QQQ -1.86% has dropped 1.12% to $421, being weighed down by a 12% drop in META following its Q1 earnings release. Crypto markets are faring better, with BTC -1.92% (-0.28%) trading at $64k and ETH -2.33% ...
The crypto market is pulling back from its recent surge, with BTC falling below $65,000, ETH -1.59% trading under $3,200, and SOL -6.78% fighting to stay above $150. As expected, altcoins are also generally declining, although a few notable performers are scattered across the market. Currently, BONK and WIF, two prominent memecoins on Solana, are showing resilience, up 12% and 6%, respectively. Additionally, HBAR initially doubled in price following reports that Blackrock...
