Chile’s state-owned copper miner Codelco and SQM (NYSE: SQM), the world’s second-largest lithium producer, are close to finalizing a landmark partnership to jointly extract lithium from the Atacama salt flats. The deal first signed in December 2023, stems from President Gabriel Boric’s national lithium strategy, which placed Codelco at the helm of all operations in strategic salt flats. Under the agreement, SQM will hand over a majority stake in its Atacama operations to Codelco in exchange for extending its production rights until 2060. The pact is expected to be concluded within weeks, though it still requires antitrust approvals, including from regulators in C…

This week is shaping up to be critical for the broader crypto market, marked by a prevailing sense of caution as prices consolidate ahead of their next direction. According to market analysis firm Bull Theory, the forthcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting is on the horizon, and its outcome will largely hinge on the economic data released this week. Stability Or Further Pressure For Crypto? The Federal Reserve (Fed) has two primary mandates: to maintain inflation around 2% and to support employment levels. Currently, the landscape appears challenging, with rising unemployment juxtaposed against persistent inflation. On September 9, the Bureau of Labor S…

In a wide-ranging CoinDesk interview released yesterday, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson sharpened a years-long critique of Ethereum’s long-term viability, arguing that the network’s reliance on rollups and external scaling layers has created economic incentives that will ultimately hollow out the base chain. While acknowledging Ethereum’s technical progress, he contended that “as a general-purpose, smart-contract ledger,” the project has nurtured an ecosystem that “will slowly but surely eat [it] alive.” Why Ethereum Is Doomed To Fail: Cardano Founder Hoskinson framed the core problem as one of misaligned incentives between Ethereum’s L1 and its expanding constellatio…

Trade Review and Advice on Trading the EuroThe price test at 1.1690 occurred at a moment when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly below the zero line, which limited the pair's downside potential. In the second half of the day, everyone will be closely watching the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, both including and excluding food and energy prices. An increase in these indicators will likely support the dollar while putting pressure on the euro. The data will influence the Fed's decision as it will shed light on price trends. It's worth noting that despite a recent slight decrease in inflationary pressure, it still significantly exceeds the target level.…

Canadian miner Northern Graphite (TSXV: NGC) plans to raise up to C$2.2 million ($1.6 million) on the stock market as it builds on a recent federal lifeline extended to North America’s sole graphite mine. Up to 20 million common shares will be sold at C$0.11 apiece in a non-brokered private placement, Northern Graphite said Thursday in a statement. Net proceeds will be used to start a feasibility study on a planned battery anode material plant in Baie-Comeau, Quebec, and for working capital and corporate expenses.

On Friday and this morning, the euro quote remains within Thursday's range. Since September 8, the price has been coiling around the MACD indicator line, which is sloping downward. The Marlin oscillator is tending downward, even while in positive territory. The euro is under market pressure ahead of the Fed meeting. A similar sideways movement has been seen on the S&P 500 and government bond yields over the past week — markets are awaiting the Fed's monetary policy decision. Our previously stated forecast calls for a decline in the euro, since, along with a rate cut, the FOMC is also expected to send a hawkish signal — there will be no three cuts by year-end, and ev…

Gold is showing moderate gains during the day, pausing near record highs reached earlier on Tuesday, though prices remain below the round level of 3700. Bulls have taken a breather after a sharp surge to new historic highs, preparing for potential changes in central bank policies. However, downward potential remains limited due to fundamentally supportive factors for the yellow metal. Strengthening confidence that the Federal Reserve will lower interest rates this week is pushing the U.S. dollar close to yearly lows, which in turn boosts demand for this non-yielding precious metal. In addition, rising geopolitical risks amid the intensifying Russia–Ukraine conflict are dr…

A major Ethereum holder that had been quiet for years suddenly moved roughly 200,000 ETH Friday, worth about $800 million at current prices. Based on reports from on-chain trackers, the investor controls a total of 736,316 ETH spread across eight wallets — holdings that are now valued nearly $3 billion. The activity caught attention because several of those addresses had been inactive for years, making this one of the more notable returns by an early-era holder. Whale Moves Into Staking According to blockchain observers, the transferred coins were not sent to trading venues. Instead, the funds were directed into new addresses tied to staking services, including Ethere…

However, central bank officials' speeches are barely moving the market at this point for several reasons: First, policymakers are not providing any fundamentally new information.Second, the monetary policy outlooks for all three major central banks are already fairly clear to the market.Key Fundamental Events to Watch: Although macroeconomic data is absent, Tuesday features several key events. In the Eurozone, European Central Bank President Chri…

The stock market continues its upward climb despite multiple concerns. Overvalued fundamentals, trade tariffs, and a government shutdown — all of these typically spell trouble for the S&P 500. Yet the broad U.S. equity index continues to "find the good in the bad." It has now recorded its 32nd all-time high of the year, driven by optimism in artificial intelligence (AI) and expectations ahead of the upcoming corporate earnings season. Contributing to the rally was also a statement from the U.S. President regarding negotiations with the Democrats. S&P 500 Corporate Earnings Outlook According to Bloomberg analysts, corporate earnings for S&P 500 companies are ex…

On the hourly chart, the GBP/USD pair on Wednesday consolidated below the 76.4% retracement level at 1.3425 and then rebounded from this level from below. Thus, the decline in quotes continues toward the support level of 1.3332–1.3357. A rebound from this zone would work in favor of the pound and some growth toward the 1.3425 level. Consolidation below this zone will increase the likelihood of continued decline toward the next Fibonacci level of 127.2% – 1.3225. The wave situation remains "bearish." The last completed upward wave did not break the previous peak, and the last downward wave did not break the previous low. The news background in recent weeks has been nega…

Although this would typically be bullish for pricing, momentum was tempered by substantial gains in gasoline and distillate invento…

US Indices are reacting interestingly to two major pieces of data that surprised positively when it comes to inflation, particularly after the NFP beat. Markets shot up after the release of the Producer Price Index data but still not above yesterday's highs after a Risk-Off overnight session with starting to price in cuts more aggressively after the softer data. Is the market starting to look at something else for the US? Inflation data has surprised positively twice, with the Core PPI coming in at 3.0% vs 3.1% exp. and Core CPI coming in at 0.1% m/m vs 0.3% expected. Just a reminder that the Federal Reserve prefers to track Core data to avoid more volatile energy and …

Citigroup Inc. expects gold prices to decline below $3,000 an ounce in the coming quarters, forecasting a cooldown after this year’s record-setting run. The bank cites weakening investment demand, improving economic prospects, and anticipated US interest rate cuts as key drivers of the expected pullback. In a recent report, Citigroup analysts led by Max Layton predicted that gold will fall to a range of $2,500 to $2,700 an ounce by the second half of 2026. The outlook contrasts sharply with bullish forecasts from other major financial institutions. Goldman Sachs projects gold to reach $3,700 by late 2025 and $4,000 by mid-2026, citing robust central bank buy…

According to an analysis posted on X by CRYPTOWZRD, Chainlink has closed the session with a bearish tone and is now testing the key $12.50 support level. With reduced weekend liquidity expected, price action is likely to remain choppy, making it essential to closely monitor intraday volatility.
