Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

KEY US ECONOMIC EVENTS TO WATCH THIS WEEK WHICH WILL IMPACT THE CRYPTO MARKET

The crypto market has reached a new high, surpassing $3.4 trillion, as many altcoins outperform Bitcoin. This marks a significant moment for the market. With major economic reports on US jobs, employment claims, and manufacturing due this week, all eyes are on how these events could affect the crypto space. These reports could influence market sentiment and potentially drive the value of both Bitcoin and altcoins.

Key US Economic Event For This Week
Crypto markets gained last week after Donald Trump chose hedge fund expert Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary. Now, crypto markets are closely watching key US economic data set to be released this week.

Dec 2: ISM Manufacturing PMI Report  
The ISM Manufacturing PMI report for November, set to be released on Monday, Dec 2, will shed light on the U.S. manufacturing sector and overall economic trends. This comes after weak data from the Eurozone, where the Euro dropped to a 23-month low of $1.0336.

As the U.S. ISM index is forecasted to rise slightly from 46.5 to 47.5, a weaker USD could drive investors toward Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Dec 3: JOLTS Job Openings
On December 3, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release October’s JOLTS report, showing job openings, layoffs, and quits. Job openings have steadily fallen since March 2022 but rose to 8.4 million in August before dropping to 7.44 million in September.

Meanwhile, October’s forecast is a slight uptick to 7.49 million, as labor market trends remain crucial for Fed policy decisions.

Dec 4: National Employment Report
On December 4, the ADP National Employment Report will reveal November’s job growth in the private and public sectors. October’s report surprised markets with just 12,000 jobs added, far below expectations. While hiring has been slowing, September showed improvement, with 233,000 jobs added.

Earlier weak data has fueled expectations of a Fed rate cut, keeping market attention on this week’s report.

Dec 5: Jobless Claims Report
The upcoming jobless claims report on December 5 will provide fresh insights into the U.S. labor market. Last week recorded 213,000 claims, with a slight increase to 215,000 expected.

Despite fewer initial claims, rising continuing claims suggest employers are holding onto workers, but those laid off are struggling to secure new jobs.

Dec 6: US Employment Report
On Friday, December 6, all eyes will be on the November employment report, expected to show over 250,000 new jobs. The numbers will reflect the return of Boeing workers and recovery from Hurricane Milton.

This comes after weaker PCE data, hinting at a possible Fed rate cut ahead of its December 18 meeting.

In addition to this, Friday will also see the preliminary Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index and Inflation Expectations for December, providing a snapshot of consumer confidence and long-term inflation views.

CURRENCY: WHAT’S HAPPENING WITH INDIAN RUPEE AND THE US DOLLAR?

The rupee has once again dropped, hitting a record low against the US dollar, slumping to hit 84.71 against the USD. The US dollar is currently sitting at 106, up 0.42% in the early, around 12:26 IST time.

Currency Update: Indian Rupee Records New Lows, What Happened?

The Indian rupee recorded a new blow to its valuation on Monday. The early hours of trading reported a staggering outlook of the rupee, displaying a noteworthy drop in its valuation. The INR is currently sitting at 84.61, hitting a new low against the USD.

The drop in INR has been primarily spurred by the slow economic growth data that has recently been released. The fresh statistics have revealed that the Indian economy has slowed much more than the anticipated markers, likely pushing the Reserve Bank of India to intervene and cut rates. The INR is already battered due to equity outflows that are triggered by the recent election win prompting Donald Trump to take the presidential lead.

This development represents a striking contrast, adding to how the Indian economic domain is experiencing slow growth, disrupting its earlier trajectory of becoming one of the world’s fastest-growing economies.

The ANZ bank, in a note released recently, shared how the RBI may cut rates as early as December 2024 to stabilize the current economic pillars of the nation.

Trump Fires BRICS on Twitter, Warns of New Tariffs

In the meantime, the president-elect, Donald Trump’s new statements concerning BRICS are also weighing on the Indian economy. Trump, in a new tweet, shared how he may impose 100% tariffs on BRICS nations in particular if they went ahead with their plans to launch a new currency against the US dollar.

“The idea that the BRICS Countries are trying to move away from the Dollar while we stand by and watch is OVER. We require a commitment from these Countries that they will neither create a new BRICS Currency. Nor back any other Currency to replace the mighty U.S. Dollar or, they will face 100% Tariffs. And should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful U.S. Economy.

They can go find another “sucker. There is no chance that the BRICS will replace the U.S. Dollar in International Trade, and any Country that tries should wave goodbye to America.”

XRP'S SIX-YEAR HIGH OF $2.50 — WHAT MADE IT HAPPEN?

XRP has seen a remarkable surge, reaching highs of $2.50 in today's trading session, a level not seen since Jan. 8, 2018. This nearly seven-year high has captured the attention of the cryptocurrency community and the market alike.

According to on-chain analytics platform Santiment, whale accumulation might have contributed to this price surge. Whales and small retail holders accumulating together have contributed to XRP making history, reaching highs not seen since January 2018.

Santiment noted that the six-year or nearly seven-year high for XRP comes as wallets with 1 million to 10 million XRP have accumulated 679.1 million tokens in just three weeks. This accumulation is currently valued at approximately $1.66 billion.

According to Ki Young Ju, CryptoQuant CEO, Coinbase whales might be driving the XRP price rally. Over the past 30 days, during the surge, Coinbase's minute-level price premium has ranged from 3% to 13%. Meanwhile, Upbit — a Korean exchange with more XRP investors than Binance — has shown no significant premium so far.

XRP is also experiencing increased wallet activity. For the first time in the coin's eight-year lifetime, the total number of non-empty XRP wallets has exceeded 5.5 million.

Since Nov. 9, there have been 119,820 non-empty XRP wallets. Traders are increasingly rotating money out of Bitcoin and into other cryptocurrencies. Since Nov. 21, BTC's dominance rate, or share of the cryptocurrency market, has fallen from 61.5% to 56.5%.

At the time of writing, XRP was up 20.36% in the last 24 hours to $2.32 and up 54% in the previous seven days. XRP becomes third largest cryptocurrency in $100 billion rally XRP has vaulted rivals Solana and USDT, Tether’s stablecoin, to become the third-largest cryptocurrency following a $100 billion rally.

On Monday, the token climbed up to 20% to $2.50. In the process, its market value increased to $139 billion, up from less than $30 billion on Nov. 5.

XRP has been rising since Nov. 28, when it fell to lows of $1.28; taken from this date, XRP will mark the sixth day of gains if today closes in green. Broadly speaking, XRP has steadily climbed from Nov. 5 lows of $0.50 and has skyrocketed 353% in 30 days.

The cryptocurrency's remarkable surge has propelled it above the leading dollar-pegged stablecoin, Tether's USDT, to become the world's third-largest digital asset. XRP trading volumes have increased globally. Upbit, South Korea's largest cryptocurrency exchange, had a record $4.25 billion volume in the XRP-won pair in the last 24 hours. CoinMarketCap data shows that this accounts for almost 28.8% of the exchange's overall trading volume.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

BRICS SUMMIT TO SEE ALLIANCE TAKE MAJOR STEP TO END US DOLLAR

With the landmark event just days away, the BRICS 2024 Summit is set to see the economic bloc take a major step toward ending US dollar dominance. 

Indeed, the collective will gather in Kazan, Russia for the event that could be one of its most important. Chief among the matters to be discussed by the bloc is its ongoing de-dollarization efforts.

At the recent Business Forum that took place in Moscow, the bloc officially debuted the long-awaited BRICS Pay system. The alliance debuted a demo card for participants to utilize throughout the weekend. Those efforts will likely continue at the summit, with the bloc poised to make monumental announcement

BRICS to Take Major De-Dollarization Step at 2024 Summit
The BRICS Summit has become one of the most important days for the alliance. In 2023, it saw the bloc welcome its first expansion effort since 2023.

Specifically, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt, Ethiopia, and Iran joined the collective. This year, the bloc is expected to welcome similar landmark announcements.

Among them are key efforts to lessen economic reliance on the West. Indeed, the BRICS Summit 2024 will see the bloc take a major step toward ending US dollar dominance.

According to a new Reuters report, Russia is going to engage participating countries in taking part in building an international payment platform. Specifically, the platform would be “immune” to Western sanctions.

Imposed sanctions after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have been a constant issue for the alliance.

Their presence has become a catalyst for the bloc’s continued efforts to promote local currencies. At the upcoming summit, those efforts are set to be magnified as they attempt to increase economic prominence on a global scale.

The proposal will be rooted in the connection of commercial banks. It would utilize blockchain, similar to the developing BRICS Pay platform. Altogether, it will likely be the continued expansion of the payment platform that has been in development for much of the last year.

CHARLES HOSKINSON PREDICTS CARDANO WILL SURPASS BITCOIN AND ETHEREUM

▪️Hoskinson believes Cardano will surpass Bitcoin and Ethereum in the future.

▪️The network's growth relies on technological innovation and decentralized governance.

▪️Community focus is prioritized over marketing efforts for sustainable development.

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano  expressed his belief that the Cardano network will eventually grow larger than Bitcoin and Ethereum, providing a timeline for when this might occur. He indicated that the Voltaire era would give Cardano a competitive edge over other layer-1 networks.

Future of Cardano
Hoskinson stated that Cardano would become a larger network than Ethereum in ten years and surpass Bitcoin in twenty years. He also noted that most governments will be working on their own infrastructures in the coming decade.

Cardano being larger than Bitcoin and Ethereum would mean that ADA‘s market value would exceed that of BTC and ETH. Currently, ADA holds the eleventh position in market value, while BTC and ETH occupy the first and second positions, respectively.

Advantages of Decentralized Governance
Hoskinson firmly believes in Cardano’s superior technology compared to other networks, predicting that this advantage will become more evident over time. He emphasized the network’s competitive edge through decentralized governance and promising plans.

He highlighted the importance of decentralized governance, stating they prefer building a genuine community over merely focusing on marketing.

Despite aiming to establish an independent structure free from central intermediaries and global firms, progress toward these goals has been extremely slow, causing community dissatisfaction.

Hoskinson’s comments on the Voltaire era highlighted how Cardano distinguishes itself from other layer-1 networks, criticizing others’ reliance on venture capital funding as contrary to the purpose of blockchain technology.

His statements have sparked various opinions regarding Cardano’s potential for future growth, with experts closely monitoring how its technology and community-focused approach may influence market dynamics.

The goal of Cardano surpassing Bitcoin and Ethereum is built on its technological innovations and decentralized governance strategy, with its success dependent on market conditions and network adoption.

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

CFTC Announcement:

"Washington, D.C. — The Commodity Futures Trading Commission Open Meeting scheduled for Monday, June 24, 2024, has been cancelled. The matters under consideration have been completed through the Commission’s seriatim process."

Let's take a close look at what has been completed.

* "Final capital and financial reporting comparability determinations and orders for certain nonbank swap dealers domiciled in Japan, Mexico, the European Union (limited to France and Germany), and the United Kingdom

* Applications of ForecastEx LLC for Registration as a Derivatives Clearing Organization and a Designated Contract Market"

The first item on the list above that was completed dealt with Cross-Border applications of Swaps Provisions. Capital and Financial reporting is being allowed by non-U.S. swap dealers and market participants (MSPs) that meet agreed upon standards with their home jurisdiction's regulations instead of the CFTC's. You can look at the list above of Nations that qualify.

The reason for the above being so important is because of the following procedures. These swap execution facilities have to be registered to operate as derivatives clearing organization that will allow global access to foreign currency exchanges and other financial instruments of interest.

The final item deals with designating contracts. Designated Contract Markets (DCMs) are exchanges that list trading futures or option contracts that are based on all types of commodities. And this, comes under the Commodities and Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and their governance.

Compliance Date: Effective July 13, 2023. Derivative Clearing Organizations DCOs must comply by July 12, 2024.  (See Federal Register link below)

The completion of these swap dealer compliance issues in the Forex Market comes at a time when Iraq has just completed their requirements on phase one of their economic reforms. Phase one is a completion of reforms that have now qualified Iraq for international trade.  CFTC  Federal Register

Goldilocks' Comments and Global Economic News Sunday Afternoon 6-23-24

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

From Last Night:

China has been selling their US Treasury Bonds and buying gold to create a diverse net worth of their holdings in gold. It has allowed them to decouple their economy from the dollar and begin a Treasury Bond Market of their own.      

As of May 2024, gold makes up 4.9% of China's foreign exchange reserves. Central Banks have been buying gold at record rates around the world to achieve their Independence and Sovereignty.

The bond market plays an important role in the valuation of financial assets. The utilization of this financial tool will aid the countries who have moved through their Article 4 consultations with the IMF to achieve financial clarity and direction.

China intends to move into their Treasury Bond Market gradually. They intend to use this as a liquidity tool to help manage interest rates and move their monetary system forward through the support of gold as collateral instead of the dollar.

Other countries around the world are in process of doing the same. Over time, we will be witnessing an increase of exchange rates determined by each country's ability to collateralize their newfound level of Independence through gold as it deflates their inflating economies.

It is important for us to watch these new trends as they will create new valuations upon currencies that have been lying dormant for many years. These new local currencies being traded between nations going forward will soon be operating from their own strength and support through gold.  Morning Star Investopedia

Gold will set us free.

"The tokenized US Treasuries market reached an all-time high of 2,143 holders on June 18th, with a 250% year-to-date growth, according to data aggregator RWA.xyz. The Ondo Short-Term US Government Bond Fund (USDY) leads with 1,054 holders and over $218 million in tokenized bonds."

Tokenized US Treasury Market! Do you see it's importance now? And why, Central Banks have been buying so much gold? The Central Banks have been the banks for our banks for a long time, and now, they are about to become our banks through a Digital Network System.

As our bond markets are tokenized, they will be the underlying assets that support the rest of our country's currencies. Because these tokens have gold within there net worth, it will turn our fiat system into a Real World Asset backed by gold utilizing a digital protocol that standardizes each transaction made around the world.

This is the new Gold Standard, of which, we are in process of achieving. It will guide us forward into more and more creative possibilities that are endless in their capacity to achieve abundance we have not seen before.

We are certainly not there yet, and transitions can be hard. But, we are standing at the edge of an opportunity that requires faith, hope, and love for those around us as we journey through this time together.  CryptoBriefing   RWA

The Swiss National Bank (SNB) has announced that it has become the world’s first central bank to ‘carry out a monetary policy operation in a live production environment’ using distributed-ledger technology’ (DLT).

It made the announcement during a press conference in Zurich (20 June) that led with updates on topics such as inflation and the Swiss economic outlook before focusing on fintech-related innovation – chiefly new ambitions for its wholesale central bank digital currency (CBDC) pilot initiative ‘Project Helvetia’.

The SNB stated that it had successfully issued digital SNB bills on the SIX Digital Exchange (SDX) – the ‘tokenised assets’ platform sibling of the SIX Swiss Exchange, Switzerland’s principal stock exchange – ‘at the beginning of June’. The token-based bills, which had an issuance volume of CHF 64 million (about £56.6m/$71.6m), had a one-week term. Currency Insider  SNB

"Stablecoin issuers are fast emerging as a significant source of demand for the U.S. Treasury notes as concerns about Washington's debt management grow.

* Stablecoin issuers are the world's 18th biggest holders of U.S. debt.

* Of the many crypto bills in the U.S. political corridors, stablecoin legislation has been the closest to moving past the U.S. Congress to become law.

Stablecoin issuers are fast emerging as a significant source of demand for the U.S. Treasury notes as concerns about Washington's debt management grow."

Folks, Are you paying attention?
Owing to new European Union rules on stablecoins, we will no longer support the following assets from July 1st 2024:

DAI
FRAX
GUSD
USDP
TUSD
USDT
We'll continue supporting USDC, EURC and PYUSD

Wow !!!!

Why are these crypto stable coins being removed from uphold ?

Well it’s because they simply aren’t stable !

Remember MICA ?

MiCA establishes a framework for crypto-assets in the EU, covering their issuance, trading, offering, and custody. It also includes rules for stablecoins, licensing requirements for CASPs, and consumer protection measures. Some of the rules that will apply on June 30, 2024 include:

• Stablecoins  Only credit institutions (banks) and electronic money institutions (EMIs) will be able to issue stablecoins, promote their purchase, and request that trading platforms list.

• Crypto custodians  Crypto custodians are liable to their clients for the loss of crypto-assets or access to them if the incident is their fault

"In a market economy, a country's currency value is determined by supply and demand, just like other goods and services. When demand for a currency increases, it appreciates, or becomes stronger and more valuable. When demand decreases, it depreciates, or becomes weaker and less valuable." | Investopedia

"Yes, economic activity, including market interest rates, gross domestic product, and unemployment rate, can affect exchange rates. These rates are often called market exchange rates and are set in the global financial marketplace by banks and other financial institutions. Exchange rates can change hourly or daily, and can be small or large shifts." | Investopedia

I thought I would give you an idea of what's happening with Vietnam when they go to a Market Economy. Just so you know, supply and demand will determine their new exchange rates when they change their monetary policy to move into a Market Economy.

Both the United States and Russia have recently signed a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership with Vietnam. These two countries recognize Vietnam's capacity to step up to the plate, and into, a higher level playing field with their economies along with all the rights and privileges that go with it.

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

"Almost two-thirds of countries in the Middle East and Central Asia are exploring adopting a central bank digital currency as a way to promote financial inclusion and improve the efficiency of cross-border payments.

Adopting a CBDC, however, requires careful consideration. Countries across these regions, spanning a diverse group of economies stretching from Morocco and Egypt to Pakistan and Kazakhstan, each must weigh their own unique set of circumstances.

Many of the 19 countries currently exploring a CBDC are at the research stage. Bahrain, Georgia, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates have moved to the more advanced “proof-of-concept” stage. Kazakhstan is the most advanced after two pilot programs for the digital tenge."   IMF

Per conversations Dee, Sam, and I have had with our CBI contact, Iraq will be using CBDC for Cross-Border Trading.

Iraq to repatriate all its citizens from al-Hol refugee camp in Syria

BAGHDAD, June 18 (Xinhua) -- The Iraqi government on Tuesday has decided to return all Iraqis from the al-Hol refugee camp in Syria, the official Iraqi News Agency (INA) reported.

Karim al-Nouri, deputy minister of the Ministry of Migration and Displaced, told the INA that the "total number of refugees in the al-Hol camp is more than 50,000 people from different countries, including 20,000 people from Iraq."

He said that the Iraqi government had established a high-level committee to scrutinize the security situation of the refugees.

Al-Nuri also said that those returning from the al-Hol camp would go through community rehabilitation programs at the al-Jada'a camp in Iraq's northern province of Nineveh, stressing that about 3,000 people so far have returned to their homes in Iraq, according to INA.

The al-Hol camp is known to be housing refugees, with a significant number of them being family members of IS militants. ■    English News

Rulemaking: Special Purpose Acquisition Companies, Shell Companies, and Projections Corporation Finance
 
Status: Final Rule: Special Purpose Acquisition Companies, Shell Companies, and Projections; Correction

Today, the SEC registers the Final SPAC Rules. SPAC stands for Special Purpose Acquisition Company. SPAC is a company that raises money in an Initial Public Offering (IPO) to acquire a private company and take it public.

SPACs are also known as blank-check companies that provide money for startup companies preparing to offer new technologies (digital assets) on the QFS.   The registering of this final rule will enable many technological advances to begin and be placed on the QFS.

Here comes liquidity for our new tokenized assets.  SEC    KPMG

Today the Independent Evaluation Office (IEO) of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded that newer IMF policy areas such as governance, social spending, digital money, climate change, and gender are leading to “serious” challenges, including overburdening staff. That’s because the expansion of activities beyond its traditional areas has happened with “limited resources and expertise”, including a more or less flat budget in real terms. However, the Board approved each of the expansion areas.   Ledger Insights   IEO   IMF

This direct trade in local currencies was not only aimed at expanding bilateral trade to $100 billion under their free trade pact but also meant to develop a mechanism and ecosystem of directly dealing in two currencies. It was presumed to cover around 20-25 per cent of trade in local currency initially. However, the first deal that happened in Indian rupee-UAE dirham was an oil deal. | RFA

As we approach the elections, the markets are going to start showing their true colors. Bank mergers will increase as we leave behind the old Financial System and move into a new Digital Economy.

China and Russia have sold most of their US bonds. Now, we are witnessing the beginning stages of Japan doing the same. China and Japan have been huge Bond holders of the US debt instrument. And now, Japan wants to begin selling their bonds for Bitcoin. I bet you didn't see that coming. 😂

Many of the US Banks are holding a significant amount of unrealized debts that will go against their banking net worth. Our Government has been attempting to swap out many of these maturing bonds with new bonds holding a higher rate of return.

This still doesn't look like it is enough so far to balance the unrealized debt holdings our banking system currently has on their books.

This will create a downward pressure on the US dollar going forward. It will begin the process of leveling the playing field with other currencies around the world.

The banks that survive into the next economy will be those who are Basel 3 compliant. The road ahead will be bumpy as we activate new digital mechanisms through tokenized assets that will form a bridge to the new economy.

Europe is further along than the rest of the countries in the completion of their MICA regulations. Look for them to transition through the sale of their own bonds into digital assets and gold.

The US may not be far behind. And the BRICS system, let's just say the Global South is about to rise. Bitcoin Magazine

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Putin visits Vietnam. Why? “The main issues relate to shoring up economic and commercial ties, including arms sales.”

Putin and Vietnam's leaders were said to have been working on an agreement regarding ruble-dong currency transactions through the banking system. This meeting is expected to enable payment for goods and services.

Currently, Vietnam is expanding the value of its currency through the expansion of its elderly population through healthcare, commercial trade, and military arms expansion.

Proper military spending over GDP stabilizes and promotes currency values of a country. Why? Money spent on the military ends up in the private sector as payment for goods and services the military requires.

Each of these are indicators of a growing economy that justifies a higher value through demand on their currency inside a Market Economy.    Vision Times   Education CFR   Nature

Nervous about the market? Here’s one thing you could do if shares start sinking fast

Jack Janasiewicz: The bottom line … is that there’s a disinflationary impulse coming. I think [Fed Chair Jerome] Powell was right to sort of look at [hotter-than-expected] January, February, March inflation data as maybe a little bit of an anomaly or a pause but not a reversal of that trend that’s going to continue to head to that 2% target.

So, again, heading in the right direction, it may be slower than people would like. But we’re going to 2%.

And then the other thing I would point to as well — the labor side of their mandate is becoming a little more focused. [The Fed] is one of the only central banks that has the dual mandate with price stability and full employment. It feels like the price stability side is coming into better focus.

As the economy slows a little bit here, and you start to see the unemployment rate tick a little bit higher … the Fed [could start] to focus on making sure that the unemployment rate doesn’t start to rise.

That could be the trigger for rate cuts. So we’re not ruling out rate cuts by September. We could easily have a cut. The data will tell us that, but I think the big takeaway for us is [inflation] going in the right direction.   CNN

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

The New International Valuation Standards (IVS) will become effective January 31st, 2025.

The latest version includes new chapters on:

* Data & Inputs,
* Documentation,
* Financial Instruments.

"The International Valuation Standards (IVS) are a framework used by valuation professionals in over 100 countries to ensure consistency, transparency, and confidence in valuations."

The most significant changes will result in Data Models and Money Flow by which these new mechanisms will move payments through new Digital Networks.

New valuations in currency values are part of these valuations due to new ways of doing business around the world involving the use of Local Currency over a World Reserve Asset.

The currency valuation adjustments that take place between now and then on the markets, however distorted they may get during this time, will help give rise to New Market Data that will go into the computations of these new standards.  IVSC   IVSC Standards Glossary   Linkedin

"CHANGES TO OCC’S MERGER RULES ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED TO PROTECT THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM AND MAIN STREET AMERICA FROM TOO-BIG-TO-FAIL BANKS"

We have seen several Bank mergers the last few years, but the pace of these mergers is about to really pick up between now and the end of this year.

Did you know since the 1980s that the number of banks has declined around 70%? The anticipation of a new monetary system has been in the works for some time.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is currently working on closing loopholes, so clients in our banking systems can have better protection as we approach a deepening of the new Digital Banking System transition.  Better Markets

Vietnam has golden opportunities to develop silver economy: expert-Xinhua

Vietnam has an aging population that will diversify their economy and expand it. Not only do they have an opportunity to grow through infrastructure opportunities, but they have the opportunity to grow inside an aging population that will engage their medical service opportunities as well.

These two aspects of Economic Development will go a long way in moving the demands of their currency to higher levels going forward.  English News

Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

The stock market has finally reached a topping phase. Look for the markets to begin leveling out and retracting at any moment.

Long-term fundamentals indicate that we are heading into a reset zone. These zones do not happen overnight and can sometimes take months to complete their cycles.

Even though most stock assets have turned towards a downward trend, the tech stocks in NASDAQ are holding many of the indexes up at the moment.

Many tech stocks are currently overvalued, so it is important that we watch this sector of the market as well closely.

We are currently in a tech bubble, but all bubbles do burst. The only thing keeping this Market from going to its real values lies in the fact that the government keeps pumping it with money.

Even if money does continue to be placed into the system to hold it up, I want you to know that we are heading into a movement that will take us into real values behind the scenes.

"XRP Officially Decouples From Bitcoin"

In financial markets, decoupling happens when the returns of one asset class moves in a different direction from their expected or normal pattern of correlations with other assets.

The days of XRP and Bitcoin rising and falling together appears to be taking new paths. Perhaps, Ripple is about to leave the nest.

Is XRP developing a life of its own based on its support levels or financial support systems giving it life?

Maybe, just maybe, we have a new leader of the pack. Ripple appears to be ready to "run with the wolves."   Trading View
