Google's Static Position

Google's stock showcased a sideways movement in the last session. While the CCI indicates a negative signal, this appears to be in contradiction with the broader technical analysis.

 

 

Aussie Dollar's Descent

The Aussie dollar witnessed a sharp drop of 1.1% in the recent trading session. The Rate of Change (ROC) indicator aligns with the broader technical analysis, signposting a negative trend.

Global Economic Overview

Amid the dollar's strength nearing its recent peaks, market trading remained somewhat muted. The broader market anticipates cues regarding the U.S Federal Reserve's policy direction after an expected interest rate pause this month. Concerns over worldwide growth, with a special focus on China, led the safe haven U.S dollar to achieve multi-month peaks against major currencies such as the Japanese Yen, Euro, and Pound. This economic climate also prompted the Aussie dollar's downturn by over 1.5%, especially with The Reserve Bank of Australia's decision to maintain steady rates. Chronicle, the second major Oracle provider responsible for safeguarding over $5 billion for Maker DAO, is extending its services beyond the Maker DAO ecosystem. The firm is launching a fresh protocol, making oracles accessible across various networks, initiating with Polygon.
