Today, the GBP/JPY pair is attracting aggressive intraday sellers following yesterday's rally and the rise during the Asian session to the 203.55 level. This comes amid the overall strengthening of the Japanese yen. Weak U.K. employment data suggest that the Bank of England will likely continue cutting interest rates, as signs of economic slowdown increase the likelihood of further monetary easing. Moreover, solid demand for the yen is putting downward pressure on the GBP/JPY pair, curbing its upward momentum. Recent remarks from Japan's Finance Minister, Katsunobu Kato, about possible sharp fluctuations in the foreign exchange market have heightened speculation that the …

Today, the Japanese yen is leading amid concerns about possible interventions. Japan's Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato noted that recently there have been one-sided and sharp fluctuations in the exchange rate, emphasizing the importance of stable currency movements that reflect the economy's fundamentals. This has supported the yen, although political uncertainty could limit its gains. Last week, the long-standing LDP–Komeito coalition unexpectedly collapsed, as newly elected LDP leader Sanae Takaichi awaits a parliamentary vote to confirm her as Japan's first female prime minister. The breakup means Takaichi will need support from other parties to advance her key initiat…

The wave pattern on the 4-hour chart for EUR/USD has changed. It is still too early to conclude that the upward trend segment has ended, but the recent decline in the euro has required an adjustment of the wave count. We now see a series of three-wave structures a–b–c, which may be part of the larger wave 4 within the overall uptrend. In this case, wave 4 has taken on an unusually extended form, but the wave pattern as a whole remains coherent. The formation of the upward trend segment continues, while the news background mostly supports currencies other than the dollar. The trade war initiated by Donald Trump continues. The confrontation with the Federal Reserve also per…

First Quantum Minerals (TSX: FM) has pushed back against claims that its La Granja copper project in northern Peru is stalled due to public opposition, calling the allegations outdated and misleading. The comments come in response to a study by GEM Mining Consulting, which suggests the project remains “blocked by public distrust.” First Quantum responded this week, stating La Granja is progressing “decisively and transparently” under strict environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards. The company noted that GEM’s study relies on community opposition sources that are nearly two decades old and no longer reflect the current state of the project or its rela…

Bitcoin continues to trade with high volatility following Friday’s brutal crash that sent prices as low as $103,000. Over the weekend, the market has struggled to find a clear direction, with bulls and bears locked in a tense battle around the $115,000 level. Sentiment remains divided — some analysts expect a consolidation phase before another leg higher, while others warn of a deeper correction if selling pressure intensifies. Adding to the uncertainty, new data from on-chain analytics firm Lookonchain has revealed massive withdrawals by wallets linked to Matrixport, a major crypto financial services platform. The move has sparked heavy speculation across the market, w…

The Blockchain Recovery Investment Consortium (BRIC), a partnership between GXD Labs and VanEck, announced on Tuesday a significant development in Celsius’ bankruptcy case. Tether (USDT) has agreed to pay a major amount to the crypto lender’s bankruptcy estate following an adversary proceeding that was initiated last year. Tether Settles Billion Dollar Lawsuit This settlement marks a significant milestone in the ongoing legal saga surrounding Celsius, which filed for bankruptcy in July 2022. Celsius had previously accused Tether of mishandling collateral and liquidations, claiming 39,542 BTC (approximately $4.3 billion at the time) along with an additional $100 million…

Veteran chartist Peter Brandt has shifted his view on XRP, moving from a short-lived bearish stance to a more positive outlook as the token tries to recover from a sharp market drop. According to recent reports, XRP fell to $1.55 Friday, Oct. 10 during the sell-off, then bounced back into the mid-$2 range as traders reassessed the situation. Brandt Revises Technical Take Brandt shared a long-term weekly chart covering 2013 to 2025. The chart shows years of sideways action that formed large triangle shapes before big moves. Between 2014 and 2017, XRP was held inside a symmetrical triangle and then broke out in March 2017, which preceded a run up to $3.30 by January 201…

Most Read: Gold (XAU/USD) Price Eyes Acceptance Above $4100/oz on US-China Trade War Fears, Up 2% on the Day The loonie has recovered in the US session after starting the day on the back foot. The move was more driven by the US dollar than any developments on the side of the Canadian Dollar. The loonie has come under pressure in recent days as oil prices have also retreated to fresh lows. When it comes to USD/CAD, the loonies weakness coincided with a rally for the US Dollar which has defied the US Government shutdown and US-China tensions to leave the US Dollar Index (DXY) hovering near recent highs. Technical Analysis - USD/CAD Back to the technicals though and USD/C…

Today marked the first trading day of the week for many North American traders after Columbus Day for the US and the Canadian Thanksgiving — and the session opened with what felt like a long-weekend hangover. Overnight markets had reacted sharply to China’s condemnations regarding the escalating US-China trade tensions, notably hurting Oil markets even further. Despite Trump’s reassuring comments on Sunday, which helped risk assets rebound over the weekend and led to a bullish Monday session, sentiment reversed during the Asia session leading to a scary opening Bell. Major indices gapped down, with the Nasdaq dropping 1.2% and cryptocurrencies also taking another hit …

Healthcare expenses often rise sharply in retirement, which leaves many retirees wondering how to use their IRAs, 401(k)s, or other retirement accounts to help cover medical bills without jeopardizing long-term financial stability. Understanding the rules around qualified medical expenses, tax implications, and withdrawal strategies is essential. It is also important to consider how allocating part of a retirement portfolio to a self-directed Gold IRA can provide stability, diversification, and protection from inflation that supports healthcare planning for decades. Understanding How Retirement Accounts Can Be Used for Healthcare Expenses Retirement accounts can be valuab…

Dogecoin just endured a sharp weekend drawdown, slipping back below the $0.20s after failing to extend its early October rebound. This decline was enough to wipe out many weeks of steady gains and shake retail sentiment. However, amid the volatility, the monthly chart is still bullish. Despite the weekend crash, Dogecoin is well above its 25-month moving average and is trading near the same structural zone that preceded past parabolic rallies. This setup caught the attention of a technical analyst on X known as EᴛʜᴇʀNᴀꜱʏᴏɴᴀL, who pointed out that the same pattern that preceded Dogecoin’s 36,000% breakout in 2021 has now resurfaced. Historical Structure Reappears On Doge…

Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for October 14 Market sentiment has been yo-yoing since Friday’s turmoil, with investors struggling to find stable footing after the week’s chaotic end. While equities appear to have found an intermediate bottom, the price action remains uncertain, reflecting caution and the price action in risk-assets is now much more open compared to the prior up-only trend. Every US-China headline is being closely dissected, the latest being this Axios update, which reignited some anxiety over the increasingly fragile trade relationship between the two global leaders. The overall ambiance is one of hesitation — a fitting tone for…

After a blistering run to fresh all-time highs, Binance Coin (BNB) has seen a significant drop. Following a push to roughly $1,370–$1,376, BNB slid about 10% in the past 24 hours, making it one of the biggest decliners on the day as traders reassess risk and profits come off the table. The retreat follows a dramatic weekend across crypto, but also arrives after a string of BNB-specific catalysts that pushed the token into price discovery. What Drove The BNB Price Surge, And The Snapback BNB ripped to record levels as the market rebounded from the largest liquidation event on record (nearly $19B wiped in 24 hours), with BNB Chain on-chain activity surging to record t…

The study involves examination of public reporting as well as interviews with member companies, and three in-depth case-study visits to mine sites. The MSV team has recently visited the South Deep operation of Gold Fields in South Africa to speak with the company and its suppliers. “With its social and economic contribution reports showing most in-country spending goes to procurement, the World Gold Council deserves credit for working with its member companies to highlight and promote the economic benefits for host communities and countries that can be created through local procurement,” Jeff Geipel, managing director of the MSV said in a news release. Many mini…

The UK labor market report for August showed no indication that inflationary pressure is likely to ease. Average wages, including bonuses, rose by 5% year-over-year over the last three months, significantly higher than the previous reading of 4.7%. At the same time, unemployment increased, as did the number of jobless claims. Adjusted for inflation, the real annual growth in total wages increased by 1.2%, which is also higher than for the previous three-month period. On a broader scale, there has been no change in the inflation outlook. In September, the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR) published calculations from its own inflation forecas…

The EUR/USD pair remains under pressure: for the second consecutive week, bearish traders are targeting the 1.1550 support level, which corresponds to the lower Bollinger Bands line on the D1 timeframe. The primary reason behind this price dynamic is escalating U.S.–China tensions. The trade war continues to gain momentum, risk-off sentiment is intensifying, and the safe-haven U.S. dollar is increasingly in demand. Additional pressure on the pair came from ZEW survey results, which unexpectedly fell into the "red zone." However, in our view, market participants may have rushed to judgment. The German economic sentiment index came in at 39.3, while analysts had forecast…

In his latest display of geopolitical confrontation, U.S. President Donald Trump tightened oil sanctions against Venezuela, forcing Caracas to seek alternative suppliers of crude oil. Venezuela, one of the world's leaders in oil reserves, has been crippled by international sanctions, outdated infrastructure, and a chronic lack of investment, limiting its ability to develop the oil sector. Although the country does produce and sell some oil, its thick, viscous crude is not highly valued on global markets. Caracas must dilute it with lighter grades of oil before exporting. Until recently, that lighter oil came from the United States—but Trump decided to cut the flow due to …

Bitcoin is testing a critical support level near $110,000 after being rejected from the $116,000 supply zone, a level that has now become a major point of contention between bulls and bears. The market remains fragile following the historic volatility from Friday’s crash, which erased billions in leveraged positions and triggered widespread uncertainty. While the price has managed to stabilize above key moving averages for now, momentum appears to be weakening as buyers struggle to absorb continued selling pressure. Some analysts warn that if Bitcoin fails to hold this zone, a deeper correction toward the $105,000–$107,000 region could follow, marking another shakeout b…

The Dogecoin price slipped roughly 4% on the day and 24% on the week, hovering near $0.20–$0.21 at press time. While the pullback cools last week’s rebound, analysts say fresh Nasdaq-listing headlines and ETF momentum could reset the narrative and revive the long-standing $1 target if key levels hold. Nasdaq Listing & Dogecoin ETF Buzz Put $1 Back in Sight The House of Doge, a corporate arm tied to the Dogecoin Foundation, plans to go public via a $50 million merger with Brag House Holdings (NASDAQ: TBH). The new entity is set to steward an ecosystem treasury of 837 million DOGE and push DOGE integrations across gaming, campus sports, and digital media, bringin…

The sudden and violent market correction triggered by geopolitical shockwaves served as an unprecedented stress test for the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem, exposing critical differences in network architecture. While the multi-billion-dollar liquidation event sent prices plunging across the board, Solana demonstrated remarkable resilience, whereas the Ethereum network and liquidity thinned during the peak volatility. Why Solana High-Performance Design Continues To Shine In an X post, the Nasdaq-listed go-to Solana Digital Asset Treasury (DAT), DefDevCorp, has revealed that when the largest liquidation event in crypto history hit last Friday, most of the market froze, a…

Elon Musk waded back into the money-meets-energy debate on X today, endorsing Bitcoin and Dogecoin. The Tesla CEO replied to a viral ZeroHedge thread that framed artificial intelligence as a government-funded arms race that will turbocharge monetary debasement. “True. That is why Bitcoin is based on energy: you can issue fake fiat currency, and every government in history has done so, but it is impossible to fake energy,” Musk wrote, aligning BTC’s value proposition with physical power constraints. Minutes later, when community account Sir Doge of the Coin (@dogeofficialceo) added, “Dogecoin is also based on energy,” Musk replied with a simple “,” his first explicit nod…

EUR/USD 5-Minute Chart Analysis The EUR/USD currency pair fluctuated throughout Tuesday. In the first half of the day, another decline was observed, potentially driven by weaker-than-expected ZEW economic sentiment indices from both Germany and the EU. In the second half of the day, the pair experienced a slight recovery, likely in response to remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. It remains unclear what exactly Powell communicated to the markets, but in any case, the Fed is expected to maintain a generally dovish stance over the next one to two years. The only question is the pace at which the key interest rate will be lowered. Even the modest upward move…

GBP/USD 5-Minute Chart Analysis The GBP/USD currency pair opened on Tuesday with a sharp decline. This time, the market had legitimate reasons to sell the British pound: UK unemployment data and jobless claims came in well below expectations. Unemployment continues to rise, which on its own is negative for the economy. Beyond that, the Bank of England may consider restarting monetary easing due to weakness in the labor market. In short, Tuesday morning brought bad news for the pound. In the second half of the day, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell came to the pound's aid. It's still unknown what exactly Powell said, but demand for the U.S. dollar began to drop sharp…

Nigel Farage is stepping into the UK crypto conversation with a bold pitch that looks a lot like something out of Donald Trump’s playbook. He wants the country to hold a £5 billion bitcoin reserve, using coins already seized by the government. He’s also pushing for a 10 percent flat tax on crypto profits, an end to the Bank of England’s digital pound project, and even the option for citizens to pay their taxes in crypto. In a speech that felt more like a campaign rally than a policy talk, he positioned himself as the UK’s crypto advocate, borrowing Trump’s tone and timing with just weeks before a general election. A Bold Plan That Looks Better on Paper There’s no denyin…
