Most Read: S&P 500, Dow Jones Q3 Outlook: Tariffs, Tech, and Small Cap Concerns USD/CAD has been on a grind off late having finally broken out of a brief period of consolidation thanks in part to a moderate US Dollar recovery and stalling Oil prices. USD/CAD has however, failed to find acceptance above the 1.3700 handle thus far and this may be something to note for bulls moving forward. Client Sentiment Data - USD/CAD Looking at OANDA client sentiment data and market participants are short on USDCAD with 57% of traders net-short. I prefer to take a contrarian view toward crowd sentiment and thus the fact that so many traders are short means US…

As Bitcoin (BTC) consolidates just below the $120,000 mark, concerns are mounting over whether the top cryptocurrency’s bullish momentum is fading. However, some analysts believe BTC still has room to grow, citing key on-chain indicators. Bitcoin Rally Far From Over According to a recent CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor Darkfost, Bitcoin’s rally is not yet over. The analyst points to the Short-Term Holder (STH) Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) indicator as evidence. For context, STH MVRV measures the profitability of Bitcoin held by short-term investors – typically those who acquired BTC within the last 155 days – by comparing the current market price to …

The months-long takeover battle for Australian copper developer New World Resources (ASX: NWC) is drawing a conclusion after Canadian private equity firm Kinterra Capital lodged an improved offer to beat out Central Asia Metals (LON: CAML) On Thursday, Kinterra, through its Critical Materials & Infrastructure Opportunities Fund II, made a revised off-market bid of A$0.066 per share, or A$0.067 if its relevant interest in New World exceeds 30% by the end of trading on July 24.

Scottie Pippen, the six‑time NBA champion, stirred up the crypto community this week. He put out a poll on X asking his 728,000 followers whether XRP will hit $10 by 2026. Alongside that question, he also threw out bold targets for Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana. The move sent traders and fans buzzing. Pippen’s Viral Crypto Poll According to his post, Bitcoin could climb to $233,000, Ethereum to $10,000 and Solana to $1,000. Pippen gave people four choices for each token and let them vote. Travis Turnbull and others in the comments threw their support behind XRP reaching $10, while some thought even 2026 might be too soon. Polls like this tend to draw big crowds, and Pi…

With a market capitalization of over $80B, the meme coin market continues to attract projects looking to be the next big thing. To do this, they typically combine cute branding and influencer endorsements to sell their coins. Snaky Way ($AKE) decided to be different. Don’t let the cute branding fool you, though. There’s a method to the madness behind the latest meme coin presale. The project combines classic meme coin fun with real utility, including gaming tournaments, staking rewards in various blockchains, and AI-powered price support. There’s a lot to unpack here, but let’s start with the game. Making Meme Coins Fun Again The snake-themed game brings an element o…

An analyst has pointed out that XRP has seen a death cross on its MVRV Ratio, a potential sign that a steeper drawdown could be coming. XRP MVRV Ratio Has Crossed Under Its 200-Day MA In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about a crossover that has occurred in the Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) Ratio of XRP. The “MVRV Ratio” refers to an on-chain indicator that tells us how the Market Cap of the asset compares against its Realized Cap. The Realized Cap is a capitalization model that calculates the cryptocurrency’s total value by assuming the ‘real’ value of each token in circulation is equal to the price at which it was last transacted on the blockc…

In his August 5 “Macro Monday” livestream, crypto analyst Josh Olszewicz delivered a review of the market’s late-summer state, arguing that while Bitcoin’s price action has gone quiet, the broader cycle remains intact. “We’re in this pocket of seasonal weakness for August and September that we typically see most years,” he explained, pointing to seasonality charts showing that historically, Bitcoin underperforms in this time window. “It’s a high likelihood that August and September is a giant nothing burger,” he added. Is The Bitcoin Bull Run Over? At day 978 of the current cycle, the question many investors are asking, Olszewicz noted, is simple but existential: is the …

World Reserve Currency History Chart: Timeline, Drivers, and What It Means Today The World Reserve Currency History Chart is more than a parade of old coins and famous empires. It is a shorthand for trust—who the world relies on to price oil, settle trade, and store rainy-day funds. When that anchor is steady, borrowing costs fall and commerce hums. When it wobbles, prices rise and planning gets harder. Below, we translate the chart into plain English: what a reserve currency is, how the title passed from Lisbon to London to Washington, what pressures exist today, and how to read the next round of headlines without panic. What Is a World Reserve Currency? A world reserve…

Mining technology company Advanced Navigation announced, as part of BHP’s Deep Mining Challenge, its Hybrid Navigation System was successfully deployed in Europe’s deepest mine in Pyhäjärvi, Finland at 1.4km underground. Pyhäsalmi is the deepest base metals mine in Europe, at a depth of 1,444 metres. The zinc and copper mine is located in the Northern Ostrobothnia province, owned by Canadian miner First Quantum Minerals. The system entered a completely new environment – no GPS, no fixed infrastructure, no maps – and returned with precise positioning data, proving that the future of fully autonomous mining is within reach, the company said.

Remember the gold price reset talk from earlier this year? It’s back. In February, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said, “We’re going to monetize the asset side of the U.S. balance sheet,” which triggered a wave of speculation about what valuing gold at the current market price could mean. Now, a brand new Federal Reserve report issued on August 1 reignited that speculation. You probably know the United States of America owns a huge amount of gold bullion—over 261 million troy ounces stored in vaults at Fort Knox, West Point, and the Denver Mint. Officially, our nation values our total gold reserve at around $11 billion. But, that’s at the 1930s official gold p…

Ore from American Rare Earths’ (ASX: ARR; US-OTC: ARRNF) Halleck Creek project in southeast Wyoming has for the first time been made into light and heavy rare earth oxide concentrates for a Department of Defense-linked agency. A research group assayed the concentrates to about 96.4% light rare earth oxides and 97.1% heavy rare earth oxides from 840 kg of ore composited from about 36 drill holes across the project, the company said Friday. These oxides are used in the production of permanent magnets. “These results provide a very meaningful third-party validation that light and heavy rare earths oxides can be produced from the Halleck Creek allanite hosted ore body…

The chief executive officer of SOL Strategies has a strong belief in the potential of Bitcoin, despite recent setbacks by the top crypto asset. Leah Wald told members of the press she expects bitcoin to make a steep move before year end. Her baseline? The vaunted $175,000 mark – a price she called a conservative read compared to some loftier forecasts. The market has already surprised a lot of people — bitcoin hit about $124,000 recently — so big swings are not impossible. Institutional Interest Drives Momentum According to Wald, part of the push comes from big money moving in. She pointed to companies like BlackRock and high-profile investors such as Cathie Wood, and…

The US Dollar has been at the center of significant volatility over the past few weeks, navigating a softer NFP release at the beginning of the month, a notably stronger PPI report, and a Federal Reserve Chair Powell who was interpreted as dovish despite his measured tone. This led to a drop in the Greenback last Friday, followed by a minor rebound in today's session. On the other hand, the Swiss Franc hasn't pursued its strengthening trend against its major counterparts as the Swiss National Bank got caught in a massive disinflationary trend, forcing their dovish tone. As a reminder, Switzerland has achieved one of the worst tariff deals with the US, with the Swiss pro…

This mix of positive and negative news created a lot of uncertainty, leading the overall Asian market to finish the day slightly lo…

Is Platinum More Expensive Than Gold? If you are asking, “Is platinum more expensive than gold?” you are really asking how two very different markets set value. Prices move every day, but the drivers are consistent: gold trades like a global monetary hedge, while platinum trades like a specialized industrial metal. Understanding those roles—plus supply risks, liquidity, and premiums—helps you make steady, confident decisions instead of reacting to headlines. Is Platinum More Expensive Than Gold? The Price Drivers Gold typically commands a higher price because it functions as a store of value across borders and generations. Central banks hold it. Investors use it to hedge…

The Bitcoin market is presently consolidating around $108,000 following a rather turbulent trading weekend, which pushes the leading cryptocurrency about 14% away from its present all-time high of around $124,457. Notably, investors’ sentiments appear mainly neutral amidst this extensive correction as many await any bullish signal for a potential recovery. Meanwhile, popular crypto analyst with X username KillaXBT is confident of an immediate short-term price relief, citing the presence of a CME gap. Bitcoin’s 98% CME Gap Fill Rate Sets Up $116K Recovery Potential In an X post on Friday, KillaXBT tips Bitcoin to make a significant price bounce following the steep cor…

The recent debut of the World Liberty Financial token (WLFI) in the cryptocurrency market has generated considerable buzz, despite facing notable price retracements within just 24 hours of trading. Despite WLFI’s 25% price retrace in the 24-hour time frame, one market analyst believes that the cryptocurrency has the potential to emerge as this year’s “cult coin,” with significant price potential for the remainder of the bull cycle. Could WLFI Soar 330% In 2025? In a detailed post on X (formerly Twitter), analyst Virtual Bacon drew comparisons to previously called cult coins, such as XRP in 2017 and Dogecoin (DOGE) in 2021, suggesting that WLFI could follow a similar p…

The Federal Reserve has announced a new event happening on October 21 that will take a deep look at how payments are changing. Called the Payments Innovation Conference, the event will bring together policymakers, finance executives, and developers working on new ways to move money. It gives the Fed a chance to directly engage with the tools that are starting to shape modern finance. Stablecoins Take a Central Role A major focus will be on stablecoins and how they might fit into the broader financial system. These are digital tokens tied to currencies like the dollar, and they’re starting to catch on for fast and cheap payments. The Fed wants to understand how it can imp…

The monthly release for US August jobs is at 22K vs 75K Expectations The prior month came at 74K vs 110K expectations, but the biggest surprise was to the downside revisions which turned a 291K increase in two months to an-only 33K increase. With the unemployment rate rising to 4.3%, there really is a decent slowdown happening in the US. Canadian jobs also regressed quite largely at -65K vs 10K expectations, sending the Loonie down vs other majors. The US Dollar is falling off, about to break support, equities are rallying but mixed : a more than 25 bps is starting to price but still has low probabilities of happening. The data still shows an increase, albeit a very s…

Bitcoin is currently trading in a narrow range, caught between the $113K resistance and the $110K support level. Bulls are struggling to regain momentum after recent pullbacks, while mounting selling pressure continues to weigh on short-term sentiment. The tight consolidation reflects investor indecision, with both sides waiting for a decisive breakout that could shape the market’s next major move. Despite the near-term weakness, the long-term view remains more constructive. According to top analyst Darkfost, the 30-day average Coin Days Destroyed (CDD) remains elevated but has started to cool off. Notably, its value has already dropped by half from its previous peak, s…

Yesterday, reports emerged that a judge blocked President Donald Trump from removing Federal Reserve Chair Lisa Cook, allowing her to remain in office while she defends against the president's attempts to dismiss her over allegations of mortgage fraud. This court decision marked an important milestone in the fight to protect the Fed's independence and its ability to make decisions without political interference. Trump's attempts to oust Lisa Cook sparked serious concerns in financial circles and among economists, who warned of potential negative consequences for the U.S. economy. Removing the Fed Chair for political reasons could undermine confidence in the central bank …

US tariffs are still influencing global trade quite largely despite having a less-intense headline impact on Markets. The latest pressure was put on Mexico which hiked tariffs on Chinese imports and particularly on auto imports. China recently expressed their discontent with the situation. WTI Oil prices saw a recent spike amid elevated tariff rhetoric and continuing geopolitical heat, particularly on countries who import cheap Russian oil. Washington is pushing G7 and EU nations to impose up to 100% tariffs on China and India for buying Russian oil, arguing those purchases keep Moscow’s war machine funded. Japan was among the latest movers to add pressuring policies o…
