GM Brothers and Sisters ✅Bitcoin Price: Fighting to Hold $80,000 Support BTC started the week defending the $80,000 psychological level. Over the weekend it briefly dropped to around $79,145, liquidating nearly $150 million in long positions in a short time. The $80,000 support failed on lower timeframes. There is a bid wall around $79,300 and sell orders clustered near $81,000. If the monthly candle closes near current levels, October will finish down about 4%, marking a second consecutive red October. This breaks the historical “Uptober” average of roughly +26% since 2010. Analyst Benjamin Cowen called the recent push to $87,000 a “fakeout” and expects continued weakness into year-end. Key resistance sits around $87,000. ✅Federal Reserve and Macro Data: Markets Expect Rates to Stay Unchanged This Week At Wednesday’s FOMC meeting, markets are pricing over 90% odds that the Fed will keep rates in the current 3.75–4% range. Consensus points to a 0.25% hike in December. Brent crude has cooled from last week’s high near $117 to around $110 per barrel. Economist Robin Brooks believes even a further rise in oil prices is unlikely to force the Fed to change course, giving Chair Kevin Warsh a temporary reprieve. Thursday brings the PCE inflation index and U.S. Q3 GDP. ✅Equities and Earnings: Tech Stocks and AI Sentiment Under Pressure South Korea’s KOSPI closed down 1.5% on Monday after earlier touching levels not seen since late July, reflecting tech-stock selling and foreign capital seeking safety. This is a heavy week for U.S. tech earnings: Microsoft and Alphabet report after the close on Wednesday; Amazon and Intel report on Thursday. Roughly 20% of S&P 500 companies will report during the week. The Nasdaq closed Friday at its lowest daily close since early August amid ongoing concerns over AI capital expenditure versus returns. －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ Plan accordingly & Choose wisely ✨May your life radiant with Bitcoin✨ bitcoin:native
