Global Financial Headlines

Bitcoin's supply appears increasingly constrained as exchange balances plummet to a 5-year low, making the asset ripe for a potential supply shock. Matt Weller, the Global head of research at Forex.com, shared that the European Central Bank has decided to maintain interest rates after a historic run of 10 consecutive rate hikes. This comes as Europe grapples with a looming recession and global economic uncertainties. Moreover, gold is on the ascent, approaching its 5-month peak from the previous week. This surge is despite the strengthening US dollar and bond yields, with investors flocking to this safe-haven asset due to the escalating Middle East conflict.
