💵 💴 💶New Highs Again💵 💴 💶
U.S. stock markets continued their rise on Tuesday, with both the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average closing at new highs for the second consecutive day. Europe’s regional Stoxx 600 index rose by 0.65%. Stocks tied to China’s market and consumer sectors were among the top gainers, following the announcement of new stimulus measures by China. Goldman Sachs CFO Denis Coleman told CNBC that the U.S. Federal Reserve “could maintain a soft landing” because “inflation levels are dropping and unemployment is manageable.” However, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon expressed a “cautious stance” on the prospect of a soft landing in an interview.
China Supports the Rally
Asian stock markets and currencies continued their rally after the People’s Bank of China announced stimulus measures on Tuesday, including a cut to the interest rate on one-year policy loans. Industrial metals, including iron ore, continued to rise following PBOC Chairman Pan Gongsheng’s announcement of a broad package to stimulate the world’s second-largest economy. Gold prices also rose. Even before the latest measures, major Middle Eastern investors were channeling record amounts of capital into China, as other global firms pulled back. The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA), along with Mubadala Investment, another fund from Abu Dhabi, participated in an $8.3 billion deal for the shopping mall management unit of Dalian Wanda Group. Still, while the latest cash injection may have bought China some time, economists believe President Xi Jinping needs to take further steps to pull the nearly $18 trillion economy out of its prolonged stagnation.
The Bitcoin Miner War is Over: Agreement and Announcement
The tension that began with a $950 million offer from Bitcoin miner RIOT Platforms in April appears to have come to an end for now. RIOT and Bitfarms have reached an agreement to end the acquisition discussions. According to statements from both parties, RIOT has withdrawn most of its demands towards Bitfarms and agreed to remain silent (without making new demands) until Bitfarms’ annual meeting in 2026, with some exceptions. RIOT also agreed not to acquire additional shares in the company without approval from Bitfarms’ board. Currently, RIOT holds a 19.9% stake, making it the largest shareholder in Bitfarms. As part of the agreement, RIOT’s demands were partially accepted. One of these demands was the resignation of Bitfarms’ co-founder, Andres Finkielsztain, from the board. Recently, RIOT succeeded in appointing its preferred “independent” CEO, and with Finkielsztain’s departure, RIOT has further solidified its influence.
