Bitcoin Flirts with $12,000 mark...



7/8/19



Bitcoin continued to flirt with the $12,000 mark following a sudden intraday surge on Monday.
Bitcoin rose 3.31% to $11,814 to remain near session highs of $11,911.
Bitcoin’s charge toward $12,000 arrived on the back of sudden $500 jolt higher intraday, with the traders struggling to single out a reason for the move. The general consensus among traders for the bitcoin's rally since the turn of the year has been rising institutional demand.
”Bitcoin's most compelling case for institutional investors may be as an uncorrelated asset to stocks, bonds, gold and oil, as bitcoin continues to demonstrate low correlation to other asset classes,” Canacord Genuity said in its “Bitcoin Monthly” report last week.
Monday's bitcoin surge took some by surprise after many had expected the popular crypto to trend lower after closing below a key resistance of $11,500 on Sunday.
Bitcoin’s market cap, often used as a gauge of demand for crypto, soared to about $211 billion, up from $199 billion last week. Further fund inflows could help the popular crypto challenge its most recent peak of $13,929.
Other cryptos struggled to match bitcoin’s rally, delivering meager gains for the day. XRP gained 1.12% to $0.398, Ehtereum rose 0.31% to $305.94 and Litecoin added 0.91% to $119.93.  More Daily Thoughts @ https://tt.wordpress.com/tag/erica-villalon/

US China Tensions with Tik Tok...

https://dz.wordpress.com/tag/erica-villalon/ Wall Street was set to pull back on Tuesday as President Donald Trump's moves to force China-owned TikTok into a sale of its U.S. operations drew a sharp rebuke from Beijing, ratcheting up tensions as the world slides into a pandemic-fueled recession. Friction between the world's top two economies took a back seat in the first half of 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic crushed global growth, and an escalation now would hamper the recovery of some exporters and importers and fan fears of a deeper economic slump. With  Microsoft Corp  (O: MSFT ) looking to buy short-video app TikTok's U.S. operations, Trump said on Monday the U.S. government should get a "substantial portion" of any deal price. On Tuesday, state-backed newspaper China Daily said the country will not accept the "theft" of the technology company. Microsoft's shares were down 1.6% in premarket trading after surging more than 5% on Monday as the comp

S&P 500 is Flat...

  Erica Villalon Trading Desk The S&P 500 was little changed on Tuesday following a three-day rally as a drop in Apple shares (NASDAQ: AAPL ) overshadowed optimism from remarks made by U.S. and China officials in pledging firm commitment to a Phase One trade deal. The benchmark S&P 500 opened at a record high as the news eased some concerns the deal could be on shaky ground. Investors also anticipate the centerpiece event of the week - an annual conference of U.S. central bankers where Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is scheduled to speak. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq logged new closing highs on Monday, boosted by signs of progress in developing treatments and vaccines for COVID-19. The benchmark index surpassed its pre-pandemic high last week even as recent economic indicators signaled a bumpy recovery from the virus-led downturn. A survey from the Conference Board showed U.S. consumer confidence unexpectedly fell in August to a six-year low. https://www.plurk.com/ericavi
