Despite the best efforts of today’s US GDP report, which upgraded Q2 growth estimates by some margin, US equities trade lower in today’s session and look to set to continue a three-day losing streak. Dow Jones, Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500: Key takeaways 25/09/2025 At the time of writing, the Dow Jones stands at $45,911, down 0.67% for the day, while the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 are at $24,325 and $6,604, down 0.91% and 0.71%, respectivelyWhile failing equity pricing following hot US GDP numbers seems counterintuitive, markets are interpreting how the economic data showing a stronger-than-expected economy will affect upcoming monetary policy decisions by the Federal Re…

Ethereum is struggling to defend the $4,000 level after losing more than 11% of its value since Monday. The sharp decline highlights how quickly sentiment has shifted, with bulls losing control of momentum and sellers stepping in to capitalize. This pullback comes after weeks of upward pressure that had pushed ETH toward multi-month highs, but the latest selloff suggests the market has entered a corrective phase. Despite this, not all analysts are pessimistic. Some see the move as a healthy consolidation rather than the beginning of a deeper downturn, arguing that Ethereum is simply digesting its prior gains before attempting another push higher. The key question is whe…

The US Dollar has been rallying steadily since its pre-FOMC lows, with Powell’s not-so-dovish speech last week marking the start of a V-shape reversal from the sharp pre-meeting downfall. Despite another appearance from the Fed Chair at a Rhode Island conference on Tuesday—where his strong emphasis on employment could have been read as a dovish catalyst—markets didn’t budge. Instead, the DXY finished higher that day, signaling that markets already priced in Powell’s words and participants are now looking for something else. The decisive move came from this morning's Jobless Claims beat, combined with even higher Q2 GDP, which markets saw as another reason to extend the …

A Nasdaq-listed company just moved to put its stock on Ethereum on the same day Ether slipped below $4,000 amid a fresh wave of liquidations. SharpLink Gaming (Nasdaq: SBET) announced Thursday it will tokenize its SEC-registered common stock on the Ethereum blockchain, becoming the first US public company to issue equity on Ethereum natively. The move, in partnership with Robert Leshner’s Superstate, comes as Ethereum’s price slid back below $4,000 on September 25. The Minneapolis-based sports gaming and technology firm aims to test compliant secondary trading of tokenized shares on automated market makers (AMMs). Superstate will serve as SharpLink’s digital transfe…

XRP holders just got reminded that they may miss out on a major token giveaway if they do not act promptly. A reminder from the crypto community has made it clear that only a short time remains before the current claim window closes. If eligible holders fail to take part, they risk losing millions of dollars in value from the free distribution. The project team has stated that the claim process is open, but it will not remain so indefinitely. After the first phase concludes, fewer opportunities will be available, leaving many with limited or no options. Rick McCracken Warns XRP Holders Of Imminent Deadline Cardano community member Rick McCracken is now urging XRP and Car…

Despite positive U.S. data and pressure on the precious metal from the dollar, gold continues to attract buyers. From a technical perspective, however, Tuesday's failure near the round level of 3800 can be seen as the first sign of possible exhaustion of the bullish trend, given the persistent overbought condition of the daily RSI (Relative Strength Index). Still, last week's breakout above 3700 was viewed as a key trigger for the bulls, confirming the likelihood of buying on pullbacks near that level. That said, a decisive break below 3700 would trigger technical selling, pushing the yellow metal toward intermediate support at 3645 on the way to the 3615–3600 level. On t…

Gold is once again attracting buyers, despite the release of positive U.S. economic data, against the backdrop of escalating geopolitical risks. Earlier this week, comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell pushed the U.S. dollar to a two-week high, putting pressure on gold prices. Powell sought to temper expectations of significant rate cuts, noting that overly sharp easing could leave the fight against inflation unfinished and require policy adjustments. Nevertheless, traders still expect the Fed to cut rates in October and December, following this month's 25 basis point reduction prompted by labor market concerns. This "dovish" outlook limits further dollar gain…

Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for September 26 Today saw penultimate session of the United Nations General Assembly, where speeches from France and Israel captured attention, though the tone soured as several delegates walked out during Prime Minister Netanyahu’s address. On the monetary front, Fed speak stayed in focus, with FED’s Barkin appearing twice, stressing that the key to consumer spending will hinge on whether “people lose their jobs or not,” while Governor Bowman, a dove, doubled down on her call for a more proactive, forward-looking Fed, pushing back against the risk of staying behind the curve. On the data side, Canada finally surpr…

Crypto analysts Kaleo and Mags have predicted that the Dogecoin price will witness a parabolic run, with the potential to reach the $1 mark. This comes amid the top meme coin’s downtrend, which puts it at risk of retesting the $0.2 mark. Dogecoin Price Eyes Parabolic Rally To $1 In an X post, Kaleo declared that the Dogecoin price will rip to new highs from its current level. He further remarked that it is only a matter of time before prices catch up with institutional interest coming from DOGE treasury companies and ETFs. In line with this, he advised market participants not to “sleep on the king of memes.” Meanwhile, crypto analyst Mags indicated that the Dogecoin p…

The 48th British Columbia mine reclamation award ceremony took place Wednesday in Penticton as part of the annual Mine Reclamation Symposium.

More than 270 people attended this year’s symposium, including biologists, engineers, mine workers and representatives, partners and members of First Nations communities, and students. Since 1969, mining companies are required by law to reclaim mine site lands when mi…

Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for September 25 Today's market was marked by a surprising disconnect. Usually, when the US dollar strengthens, it puts downward pressure on commodities like metals. However, with both the USD and precious metals rising significantly, the correlation is mixed up. This environment would be seen in risk-off markets but with bonds selling off harshly, the story isn't just about this. In a rare and ominous move, the US Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, called for the assembly of all US Army generals across the world. Overall, participants are still scratching their head to understand what is preparing but a significant…

Cloudflare is stepping into the world of digital currency with a new project called NET Dollar. It plans to launch this as a fully backed stablecoin tied to the U.S. dollar. According to CEO Matthew Prince, the idea is to help build a better foundation for how the internet handles payments and value. Why Cloudflare Is Entering the Stablecoin Space Although Cloudflare is known for its internet security and performance tools, the company sees a bigger role for itself. As AI and smart systems grow more common, there is a clear need for a faster and more efficient way to move money. NET Dollar is meant to handle payments in these new digital spaces, especially when smal…

Gate Builds Its Own Layer 2 with OP Stack Gate is stepping into the Layer 2 race with a new network called Gate Layer. It’s being built using the OP Stack, the same open-source tech used by Coinbase and Kraken. Instead of settling transactions on Ethereum like most L2s, Gate will settle on its own chain, GateChain. And instead of ETH for gas fees, users will pay in GT, the native token of the exchange. What Gate Layer Is Supposed to Do This new setup is meant to make things quicker and cheaper. By shifting activity off the main chain and handling it on Gate Layer first, the network should be able to cut down on traffic and bring fees down too. Once everything’s pro…

When Stablecoin L1 Plasma goes live, billions in liquidity follow, putting new pressure on XPL’s first-month trading range. Plasma, a Bitfinex-backed Layer 1 blockchain built for stablecoins, launched its mainnet beta and native token XPL on Sept. 25. The rollout included integrations with major DeFi protocols and immediate listings on leading exchanges, signaling a strong market entry. Each resistance level at $0.90 and $1.00 gave way after short consolidations, a textbook sign of bullish momentum. Volume spikes near the $0.90 breakout suggest large players were involved, echoing the earlier $50M whale deposit. The move above $1.00 carried weight as a psychologica…

The on-chain ecosystem of Ethereum has recently been rocked by a wave of scams and rug pulls, creating a period that many are describing as a bloodbath. While the underlying technology of the ETH blockchain remains robust and secure, the sheer volume of malicious projects and deceptive schemes is taking a significant toll on retail investor confidence. Is Ethereum Still The Home Of DeFi Innovation? The Ethereum on-chain ecosystem has been plagued by scams and rug pulls, resulting in significant financial losses and, more importantly, a decline in retail investor confidence.

One wonders if Donald Trump is kicking himself or patting himself on the back while reviewing the latest US macroeconomic statistics. The US economy grew by an impressive 3.9% in the second quarter, marking the best performance in nearly two years. Jobless claims dropped to their lowest level since mid-July, highlighting the strength of the labor market. All good, Madame Marquise? Should the President have a statue built in his honor? But is a falling EUR/USD part of his plan? Dynamics of the US Economy Did the labor market really deteriorate so much under the previous BLS leadership and turn upward so quickly with the new one? Bloomberg experts now forecast September non…

The final US Q2 GDP data provided significant support for the dollar. Nearly all components of the report came in "in the green"—that is, revised upward. This result added to the already optimistic tone set by recent reports and paved the way for further dollar strength. Now, the last puzzle piece for dollar bulls is the release of the core PCE index (September 26). If this release also lands in the green zone, "dovish" sentiment in the market will be greatly diminished. Even one additional rate cut this year could be called into question. We will discuss inflation further below, but for now, let's return to the figures, which sparked a downward impulse in EUR/USD. Acc…

Donald Trump wanted to achieve high rates of economic growth through a sharp reduction in the Federal Reserve's interest rate. However, Jerome Powell did not agree to the deal, and the FOMC Committee openly refused to make politically driven decisions. Trump was unable to convince the central bank of the need to lower the interest rate to 1-2%. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent also wonders why Powell did not promise a rate cut at the upcoming meetings. But Bessent and Trump are in the same boat, while Powell and the Fed's governors are in another. Therefore, the similarity in views on monetary policy between Trump and Bessent is not surprising. Since he failed to overpowe…

In the past 5-6 days, the dollar has been resting on its laurels. As I have already mentioned, in 2025, there have been very few situations when the dollar has piqued the interest of market participants. Just a few days ago, I analyzed global factors and concluded that the dollar would continue to decline in value. However, that review was about the long term. In the short term, the factors are a bit different, and in this series of reviews, we will determine what's going on. There are plenty of reasons for the dollar's rise over the past week if you look for them. The rise of the American currency started last Wednesday after the Fed meeting. Honestly, I wouldn't want to…

Let me also highlight a few additional important points. First, the European currency is declining, but it has far fewer reasons than the pound sterling to continue falling. The pound faces several factors, including the Bank of England's weak position in combating inflation, potential budgetary issues for the UK in 2026, possible tax increases, and a potential slowdown in the labor market and economy. These factors also put pressure on the pound. The euro doesn't face similar issues. Second, the euro hasn't lost that much over the past few days to expect that the upward trend segment is over. In part, the dollar may be getting support for the following reasons. Donald Tr…

On Thursday, the Japanese yen was losing ground against the US dollar, with the USD/JPY pair reaching its highest level in seven weeks. At the time of writing, trading was taking place around 149.88—continuing to rise for the second consecutive day, thanks to strong US economic data that is supporting demand for the dollar. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, US GDP grew by 3.8% year-on-year in the second quarter, beating the preliminary estimate of 3.3% and surpassing market expectations. The growth was driven by strong consumer spending and a significant drop in imports. The core personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, included in the GDP report, …

Crypto analyst Bobby A has published a four-panel roadmap that ties together Bitcoin dominance, US small-caps, XRP’s monthly price structure, and XRP’s total market capitalization. The overlapping signals, he argues, identify a well-defined take-profit band for XRP between roughly $8.43 and $13.58. “Four charts to rule them all,” he wrote, adding that the market is “clearly positioning itself for higher prices.” Four Charts Signal XRP $8.43–$13.58 Peak On the XRP/USD monthly chart, Bobby plots a multi-month consolidation which is built above “Base Camp 1” and, more recently, above “Base Camp 2.” The structure sits on top of a series of higher lows marked on the chart, wi…

Smackover Lithium, a joint venture between Standard Lithium (TSXV: SLI) (NYSE.A: SLI) and Norway’s state-owned petroleum company Equinor (NYSE: EQNR), announced a maiden inferred resource for its Franklin project in the northeast region of Texas. The report for the JV’s first project in the East Texas region of the Smackover Formation highlights the size and quality of its brine position, the company said. Analysts estimate that the Smackover Formation could host more than 4 million tonnes of lithium, enough to power millions of electric vehicles and other electronic devices. Smackover said the project contains the highest reported lithium-in-brine grades …

Dark Defender, a prominent XRP analyst, has drawn significant attention to the token, suggesting that XRP may be setting up a move that could take the market by surprise. Despite its struggle to decisively break above the $3 mark, XRP is now forming a Falling Wedge pattern that signals the potential for a powerful breakout by October. Falling Wedge Signals XRP Breakout By October In a recent XRP price analysis, published on Monday, Dark Defender noted that the third-largest cryptocurrency has once again respected its key support levels at $2.85, despite being rejected at $3.13. The XRP price tapped into the primary support trendline, highlighted in orange on the chart,…
