NASDAQ:COIN capped off a tumultuous week of trading, as the recent bullish gains flipped bearish on Friday, amidst another downturn in the broader crypto markets. Shares of Coinbase fell by 4.27%, to close the trading session at $236.54. While Coinbase continues to disappoint in the months following its direct listing, there is at least one prominent investor who has still been scooping up shares at the depressed prices. Cathie Wood of Ark Invest continues to add to her position of Coinbase, and has been notably bullish about Bitcoin recently stating a future price point of $500,000 per coin.

The broader crypto markets turned bearish on Friday, as traders brace themselves for what could be a long weekend full of volatility. Bitcoin dropped by 7% to close the week out, and crypto investors are having memories of the 10% drop that took place last weekend. While Bitcoin managed to rebound the next day, the overall sentiment of cryptocurrencies have been exceedingly bearish since reaching all-time highs of $63,000 USD in April.

COIN stock forecast

Another major economic figure has spoken out against cryptocurrencies as the Governor of the Bank of Japan has declared Bitcoin a speculative asset. Governor Kuroda joins a long list of figures including the JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon who have spoken out against Bitcoin over the past few weeks. The Bank of Japan’s stance comes despite a rising popularity of cryptocurrencies in Japan, especially Bitcoin whose mysterious founder uses the Japanese pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto as their alternate identity.

GBP/USD flirts with 1.3500 as USD finds fresh demand

GBP/USD is flatlining near the 1.3500 level in Europe on Tuesday, facing some pressure from renewed US Dollar demand as a safe-haven amid surging Oil prices and inflationary concerns. The focus now remains on the Middle East headlines, with Wednesday's US CPI data the key event risk this week.

EUR/USD stays weak near 1.1550 amid US-Iran impasse

EUR/USD struggles to gain any meaningful traction and hovers near the 1.1550 area in the European session. Traders seem hesitant to place aggressive bets and opt to wait for further developments surrounding the Middle East crisis and this week's release of the latest US inflation figures.

Gold off two-month highs, back below $4,400 amid surging Oil prices

Gold retreats from its highest level since June 5 at $4,435, touched earlier this Tuesday, and slides back below the $4,400 mark in European trading.

Pi Network holds at key support as broader market declines

Pi Network steadies around $0.08745 after two consecutive days of losses, capped below the $0.1000 psychological threshold. Retail demand in PI derivatives remains firm, with Open Interest above $9 million, even as broader crypto market sentiment wanes. Technically, PI faces a steeper correction, as it lacks upside momentum to support a near-term recovery.

The inflation narrative is still way more important than the employment story

Core bonds sold off yesterday with the belly of the curve slightly underperforming in the US while European curves showed more of a bear flattening. Daily changes on the US curve varied between +4.7 bps (2-yr) and +6.4 bps (7-yr).

9-3: Is the Federal Reserve’s vote tally Warsh's new forward guidance?

The rate did not move. Neither did the statement, and that’s the more interesting fact. Set the July 29 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) statement beside the one issued on June 17, and the two documents are identical apart from a single verb and a paragraph at the bottom naming three dissenters.
