Key Takeaways

  • Macroeconomic Environment: Weak U.S. economic data and rising rate-cut expectations dominated market sentiment, resulting in mixed performance across U.S. equities. The ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI and ADP employment figures disappointed, fueling concerns over an economic slowdown. Traders ramped up bets on rate cuts, with markets now expecting two rate cuts by the Fed this year, driving U.S. Treasury yields lower. In response to the deteriorating data, Donald Trump renewed pressure on the Fed, urging Chair Jerome Powell to cut rates swiftly.
  • Crypto Market: The crypto market remained in a consolidation phase, with ETH outperforming. Lacking major bullish catalysts, Bitcoin continued to trade in a narrow range between $104,000 and $106,500. Meanwhile, ETH ETFs recorded 12 consecutive days of net inflows, boosting ETH/BTC, which surged 1.22% on the day, signaling market resilience. The current market is still characterized by structural divergence, with BTC trading sideways while ETH stands out due to continued capital inflows.
  • Today’s Outlook: European Central Bank to announce latest interest rate decision. Germany–U.S. summit. TAIKO unlock event: circulating supply increases by 69.37%, worth approximately $46.9 million
