The United States is ramping up efforts to secure critical minerals outside China’s control, backing the expansion of a copper and cobalt facility in Zambia. The US Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) awarded on Thursday a $1.4-million grant to Metalex Africa, a subsidiary of US-based Metalex Commodities, to finance a feasibility study for expanding the company’s Kazozu mine in Zambia’s North-Western province. The study will assess whether the mine can produce up to 25,000 additional metric tonnes of copper and cobalt concentrates annually. USTDA officials said the initiative is designed to link Metalex with American buyers while opening opportunities for US…

While tokens like XRP dominate headlines amid rising ETF approval speculations, the Cardano price is also gaining attention as market conditions slowly recover from bearish trends. New data from Changelly, a crypto exchange, has suggested that Cardano could be gearing up for a massive breakout. The big question now is whether the cryptocurrency has the momentum to reach a $100 milestone. Why A $100 Cardano Price Remains A Distant Goal Cardano’s price action has generated significant interest in recent months, as analysts from Changelly attempt to project its next big move. According to their forecasts, ADA remains a relatively low-priced cryptocurrency compared to some …

Goldman Sachs has lowered its global copper supply forecast for both 2025 and 2026, citing recent disruptions at the world’s second-largest mine. Production at the Grasberg mine in Indonesia has been under suspension since Sept. 8 after a landslide unleashed 800,000 tonnes of mud into the Block Cave area, trapping seven workers and causing severe damage across the mine’s infrastructure. US-based Freeport McMoRan (NYSE: FCX), the mine’s operator, immediately halted mining activities to prioritize the rescue of the mine workers, and to date has recovered two bodies. As the search continues, the company has declared force majeure and is investigating the incident. …

Macroeconomic Report Analysis: There are only a few macroeconomic reports scheduled for Friday, but some of them may trigger a market reaction. First and foremost, attention should be paid to the Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index and the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index. Many consider the PCE index to be the Federal Reserve's favorite inflation indicator, though we don't necessarily agree. Besides, significant deviations from forecasts for the PCE are extremely rare. Thus, in both cases, a market reaction is likely only if the actual readings significantly diverge from expectations. Fundamental Events Analysis: Among Friday'…

Aster Exchange said it has reimbursed users after a sudden price glitch sent the XPL perpetual contract soaring and wiped out leveraged positions. According to reports, the contract’s mark price briefly decoupled from markets on September 25, 2025, jumping from about $1.30 to nearly $4 on Aster while XPL elsewhere stayed near $1.30. The mismatch forced mass liquidations on the platform. Aster Issues Refunds According to Aster’s public messages and follow-up reports, the exchange moved fast to cover losses. Refunds were paid in USDT to accounts hit by the abnormal moves. A second round of payments covered trading and liquidation fees as well. One analysis put the total…

Cathie Wood just put Hyperliquid in the Solana conversation. Will these remarks push HYPE price? ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood says that the decentralized exchange protocol Hyperliquid “reminds me of Solana in the earlier days,” calling it the “new kid on the block” in a recent interview on the Master Investor podcast. Wood reiterated that Bitcoin remains the core of ARK’s crypto thesis, but pointed to the growth of on-chain derivatives venues as a sign of shifting momentum. “It’s exciting. It reminds me of Solana in the earlier days,” she said, adding that Bitcoin “owns the cryptocurrency space when it comes to pure crypto.” DISCOVER: 15+ Upcoming Coinbase Listings t…

Asian markets start the week on a positive note Most Asian stock exchanges moved higher on Monday, while the US dollar weakened. Investors are closely watching developments in Washington, where a potential government shutdown could delay the release of September's employment report and other key economic data. Political talks in Washington President Donald Trump is set to meet congressional leaders from both parties on Monday in a bid to secure continued government funding. Without an agreement, a partial shutdown may begin midweek, coinciding with the introduction of new US tariffs on heavy trucks, pharmaceuticals, and other products. Seasonal momentum supports equitie…

Gold prices have climbed to a new all-time high of around $3,800 per ounce amid dollar weakness, as investors grew nervous about the potential shutdown of the U.S. government. Bullion rose 1.4% to an all-time high of $3,814 per ounce, surpassing last Tuesday's record after six consecutive weeks of gains. Silver jumped 2.4%, while platinum and palladium also posted significant increases, supported by persistent market tensions and inflows into exchange-traded funds backed by these metals. Strong physical demand from central banks — particularly in emerging markets — has also been an important factor behind gold's rally. Diversification of foreign reserves into gold is see…

Trade Review and Advice on Trading the British PoundThe test of the 1.3448 price level occurred when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly above the zero line, which limited the pair's upside potential. For this reason, I decided not to buy the pound. A second test of the same level coincided with the MACD being in the overbought zone, which validated sell Scenario #2, resulting in a 30-pip drop. The absence of consensus among U.S. politicians due to major ideological differences negatively impacted the value of the U.S. dollar yesterday, leading to a modest strengthening of the British pound. Investors are increasingly concerned about the potential consequen…

Bitcoin has shown signs of resilience after setting a fresh low near $108,000, staging a recovery that lifted the price back above the $113,000 level. Bulls now try to reclaim the $115,000 level, but momentum weakens as sellers push back. The recovery eased pressure in the short term, yet uncertainty builds while the market tracks major macro risks. The biggest concern comes from Washington, where the threat of a US government shutdown looms large. Traders expect volatility if policymakers fail to strike a deal, and risk assets like Bitcoin often react sharply to such headlines. As the deadline approaches, investors grow cautious and price action reflects that tension. …

While traders buy Bitcoin and Ethereum at any sign of a dip, rumors are circulating in the market that the SEC might soon give the green light to several ETFs, including those for XRP and SOL. After the Securities and Exchange Commission approved general listing standards for crypto ETFs and a number of amended Solana fund filings were submitted, many speculate that a wave of new crypto ETFs is about to reach its peak. According to rumors, Solana ETF approval could come as soon as next week. This optimism is driven not only by regulatory shifts, but also by the successful launch of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, which have demonstrated the maturity of the crypto market an…

Hooked on Headlines: Why Financial Markets Are Addicted to News Financial Decisions and Headlines Financial markets today are hooked on news, so much so that it often feels like an addiction. Headline news is the primary mechanism by which uncertainty is reduced and expectations are formed. At the same time, news can create new uncertainty, especially when it delivers a surprise. That uncertainty can spark volatility. While investors often dislike volatility, traders thrive on it, as it creates opportunities for quick gains. In this article, we break down why news matters to financial markets and why traders can’t escape the pull of the next headline. Financial D…

An update for Aclara Resources’ (TSX: ARA) Carina project in Brazil has lifted most of the deposit to the indicated category and raised grades for its four rare earths compared to the previous estimate. Shares jumped. The update converts 79% of the inferred resource from last year’s preliminary economic assessment (PEA) to 236.3 million indicated tonnes, Aclara reported Wednesday.

Bitcoin (BTC) witnessed a slight surge earlier today, climbing from $113,000 to around $117,000 at the time of writing, in contrast to expectations of several crypto analysts who were predicting a decline in risk-on assets due to the US government shutdown. Bitcoin Rises Despite US Government Shutdown The US federal government shut down at midnight on September 30, as President Donald Trump and Congress failed to reach a deal on funding. Specifically, the two camps were at odds over enhanced Obamacare subsidies, with neither party willing to take the blame. However, Bitcoin made a surprise move to the upside despite the uncertain environment created by the US governme…

Trade Review and Advice on Trading the Japanese YenThe test of the 147.04 price level occurred at a time when the MACD indicator had already moved significantly below the zero line, which limited the pair's bearish potential. For that reason, I did not initiate a sell trade. However, the bounce buy from 146.66 yielded about 40 pips in profit. A strong sell-off in the U.S. dollar occurred yesterday after the ADP report showed a drop of 32,000 in U.S. employment, signaling a potential need for further interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. This sudden employment data miss triggered a chain reaction in currency markets. Investors quickly reevaluated their expectations fo…

Chile state-owned copper miner Codelco said on Thursday it will pilot Caterpillar’s (NYSE: CAT) new Dynamic Energy Transfer (DET) system, which supplies electricity to both diesel-electric and battery-electric large mining trucks while in motion. The trial will take place at Codelco’s Radomiro Tomic Division in northern Chile using three Cat® 798 AC diesel-electric haul trucks.

The way EUR/USD traded this week deserves a spot in textbooks—under the section "Exceptions to the Rules." Despite wave patterns indicating the construction of an upward trend and a nearly 100% supportive news backdrop for buyers, we didn't see any significant movement throughout the week. While the overall wave layout remains intact, trader sentiment may have been negatively impacted, as there were plenty of reasons to expect greater volatility. As a result, we may see the market continue trading with relatively low activity going into the new week. If last week—despite objectively strong news—failed to trigger a rally, it implies that the market has entered a pause phas…

A recent interview with European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde points to a rather wait-and-see stance from the regulator, which lately has not been much help to the euro's growth. Lagarde stated that she is satisfied with the current policy parameters, as inflation in the eurozone overall remains stable. "We are in a good position, and we need things to stay that way," she said in the interview. In her view, this outcome is the result of coordinated actions by the European Central Bank, member state governments, and structural reforms aimed at strengthening competitiveness and improving economic productivity. Above all, price stability allows the central bank …

Will 2025 be defined by stablecoins and DeFi? Well, it appears to be the case. As soon as PancakeSwap announced the launch of a new launchpad, CakePad, CAKE USD zipped higher. CAKE USDT is now at around 2025 highs, and going by recent performance, it is safe to say CAKE crypto is preparing for a leg higher, perhaps to $5. Who knows. A big part of CAKE crypto’s success has to be with the exploding BNB crypto price. BNB USD is now trading above $1,200, and buyers are also eyeing new all-time highs, even to $2,000 by the end of this bull cycle. Being Uptober, hopium is high, and savvy investors are also bidding up, looking for 100X coins to go all in on. According to DefiL…
