💵 💴 💶Israel-Iran Tensions Increase Pressure on Crypto Markets💵 💴 💶

The escalating tension between Israel and Iran is posing significant risks for the cryptocurrency market, which typically trends positively in October, a period often referred to as “Uptober.” However, this upward momentum is now at risk due to Iran’s missile attacks on Israel. The crypto markets have started to decline sharply. Following Iran’s attack on Israel, many cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, began to lose value. Bitcoin’s price fell below $63,000, with a total of $351 million wiped off the market. This selling pressure began as investors sought safe-haven assets in the face of growing uncertainty.

GLOBAL MARKETS

Asian markets declined in line with the sell-off on Wall Street as concerns grew that Iran’s missile attack on Israel could escalate into a broader conflict, while oil prices rose on expectations of supply disruptions. Iran stated that its missile attack on Israel would not continue unless there were further provocations. However, Israel and the US said they would retaliate after the attack. Yields on US Treasury bonds fell in Asian trading as investors sought safe-haven assets, and gold remained close to a new all-time high.

Eurozone Inflation Falls Below Target

The European Central Bank (ECB) anticipated that this inflation data would be weak, as President Christine Lagarde mentioned during a press conference in September. However, the figures came in slightly weaker than most analysts had expected. While a recovery is expected in the fourth quarter, there are questions about how significant this will be, especially as oil prices fall rapidly.
