FRESH STOCK OF CRYPTO!

Dear clients,

Good news, we are launching 57 new cryptocurrencies with high liquidity and large capitalization, including cross-rates of the largest coins BTC, ETH, BNB, BCH, LTC to major world currencies EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, NZD, CHF.

Among the options offered, there are some well-known names that make top 20 most popular and valuable cryptocurrencies:

Cardano (ADA) is a decentralized platform that allows you to perform complex programmable value transfers in a secure and scalable manner. This coin is next in capitalization behind the big six with its $17 billion.

Solana (SOL) is a highly functional open source project that relies on the free nature of blockchain technology to create decentralized finance (DeFi) solutions.

Polkadot (DOT) is an open source sharding multichain protocol that facilitates cross-chain transfer of any data or asset type, not just tokens, and thus makes a wide range of blockchains interoperable with each other. Following Cardano and Solana, it is in the top 10 most demanded cryptocurrencies today!

Dogecoin (DOGE) is an open source digital currency created as a fork of Litecoin in December 2013. The creators of Dogecoin saw it as a fun cryptocurrency that would be more attractive outside of the mainstream Bitcoin audience, since it refers to the well-known dog meme. Tesla CEO Elon Musk made several tweets about Dogecoin being his favorite cryptocurrency.

Polygon (MATIC) is the first well-structured and easy-to-use Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development platform. Its core component is the Polygon SDK, a flexible, modular framework that supports the creation of multiple types of applications.

Avalanche (AVAX) is an umbrella platform for running decentralized financial applications, financial assets, trading and other services.

TRON (TRX) is a blockchain-based operating system that aims to ensure that this technology is suitable for daily use. While Bitcoin can process up to six transactions per second and Ethereum up to 25, TRON claims its network is designed for 2,000 TPS.

Like Dogecoin, Polygon and Avalanche are billionaires in terms of capitalization and occupy places in the second ten of the crypto totem pole! Keep an eye on them, maybe they will break the Bitcoin hegemony in the future.

In total, we have 43 cryptocurrencies and 75 cryptocurrency pairs, a wide range of opportunities for your income.

For its weight in gold: what could be the price of the metal in 2023?
06 December 2022

Dear traders,
According to Bank of America analytics, a rally in the gold market is expected in 2023 due to changes in the Fed's monetary policy.
In the first nine months of 2022, demand rose by 18% to pre-pandemic levels. By September, central banks had purchased 673 tons of gold, which is significantly more than in the whole of 2021(454 tons).
Next year could see upwards of $2,000 an ounce, experts say, as gold will be in the best position for US Federal Reserve rate adjustments. A slowdown in rate hikes may attract new investors to the gold market.
“Thus, given the already high physical demand in some regions, we believe that gold prices should rise in the second half of 2023,” BofA experts predict.

Year of Dragons: what will follow the easing of covid restrictions in China

Dear clients,

The gradual easing of the zero-covid policy once again makes China a platform for promising investments, analysts at Morgan Stanley say.

Since the start of the month, cities across the country, including Shanghai and Shenzhen, have been relaxing their Covid-19 testing requirements. According to many analysts, this indicates the curtailment of tough restrictive measures by Beijing in favor of economic recovery. In 2023, according to the bank's experts, China and Hong Kong will experience rapid growth in the stock market. We are talking about a rise of 13-14%.

At the same time, Morgan Stanley advises against rushing, as the real economic effect will be noticeable only by the second quarter of the year.

"The path will be bumpy," the strategists note. "Market volatility could stay high owing to wide swings in sentiment between over-optimism for a fast reopening and at times rapid disappointment regarding a seemingly slow and zig-zagging move towards a Covid-zero exit."

However, don't let volatility interfere with your trading plans, with a drawdown bonus 101% your account will get the support it needs!

Oil hikes: how the price of fuel changes

Dear clients,

Against the backdrop of instability in the global economy and changing demand for fuel, hydrocarbon prices are under the influence of strong volatility.

Yesterday, December 8, the price of the Brent brand fell below $76, which is comparable to December last year. The fall is about 12% from the price since the beginning of the week.

At the moment, oil has won back the position in the $80 area. According to analysts, the pricing is due to market fears regarding excess raw materials due to recession forecasts among the world's leading economies.

At times like these, you should always be prepared, keep your account in fighting shape with a deposit bonus 300%.

New Year on Wall Street: a poll from Bloomberg

Dear clients,
Bloomberg conducted a survey among investment firms, including BlackRock Inc., Goldman Sachs Asset Management and other major players, regarding the outlook for the market for next year. The mood is generally positive: with the expectation that inflation has peaked, and the Fed will start easing its monetary policy, 71% of respondents believe in stock growth. They are expect an average rise of 10%.

There are also talks about renewed interest in the Chinese market, recovering from the pandemic and the IT industry, which has suffered due to interest rates. Here, Apple, Amazon and Alphabet are considered the most promising.

The main fear of the coming year being considered a possible stagflation: 48% of investors are worried about high inflation, 45% about a serious recession. Experts also point to the likelihood of a weak start for the stock market and full growth only in the second half of the year.

The new financial year is just around the corner, so why not get ready for it in advance with a deposit bonus 300%.

Boosting rates. How did the market react to the Fed's decision

The US Federal Reserve has announced another rate hike. As predicted, the growth amounted to 50 basis points. The previous value, put forward 4 times in a row, is 75 points.

According to Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, the rate at 2% inflation remains unchanged. Reducing rates is possible only with confidence in a steady decline in inflation.

American indices reacted negatively to the continuing high rate. Declines are seen in the Dow Jones, S&P500 and NASDAQ. Many experts see a recession in the US economy as the most likely scenario. A further increase in the rate will contribute to the exit from risky assets.

At the same time, analysts say that the market does not believe in the Fed's intentions to hold the bar and counts on a more favorable scenario. Investors are betting on a February's advance being as high as 25 basis points when officials are talking about a possible 75. The FedWatch tool shows the probability of seeing a rate of 4.5-4.75% — 62%, while before the press conference there was a value of 58.1%

No bottom in sight: the largest drawdown of Tesla shares

Dear clients,

Shares of Tesla Inc. trading at the lowest levels on at least one measure, the tech giant is facing a slew of challenges, from falling demand in China to investor worries about priorities of the CEO, Elon Musk.

The stock is now trading at its lowest level since the IPO, according to the data. Among the reasons are a drop in demand in China, a cuts of production in Shanghai, and Musk's acquisition of the social network Twitter. Analysts say that if the issues are not resolved, then Tesla shares could fall to $150 before investors are interested again.

Ways to go: ECB's highest rate in 13 years

Dear clients,

The European Central Bank raised its key rate by 50 basis points to 2.5%. This is the highest rate since January 2009. The central bank warns that aggressive rate hikes are far from over. Like the US Federal Reserve, the ECB expects to bring inflation to the level of 2%. Experts expect to see the final rate in the region of 3.5%.

Although rate hikes have slowed down, compared to previous moves of 75 basis points, President Christine Lagarde insists that investors should not read too much into that. Shorter moves are still acceptable, she said,even while acknowledging that a “shallow” economic slump is likely to have arrived.

The forecasts for inflation have also been revised, the target value of 2% is expected only by 2025. In particular, the scenario of a "relatively short" recession is being considered.

The surprise effect. How the Bank of Japan blindsided the markets

Dear clients,

The Bank of Japan shocked markets after it unexpectedly revised its yield curve control policy, signaling that the last stronghold of minimum interest rates among developed countries is gradually moving towards policy normalization.

Japanese government and treasury bonds tumbled while the yen soared after the BOJ raised its benchmark yield cap to around 0.5% from 0.25%. Such a move surprised almost all analysts who did not count on any revisions, at least until the change in the bank's management.

The sudden decision could have a noticeable ripple effect in global financial markets, as the BOJ's unwavering commitment to protecting its 10-year yield cap has acted as an anchor, indirectly helping to keep borrowing costs low around the world. However, some analysts believe that this move is primarily aimed at improving the functioning of the bond market, rather than tightening monetary policy.

According to experts, the surprise effect is the Bank of Japan's signature move to achieve its strategic goals. So far, the biggest shock from the central bank in recent times was the decision in October 2014 to expand the easing program.

Market's Number One

Dear clients,

Tesla has overtaken Apple as the most popular stock among retail investors in 2022, according to research firm Vanda. A large decline in the price of the electric car maker led to a surge in acquisitions.

Cumulative net retail purchases of Tesla shares are up 424% to $15.41 billion this year from $2.94 billion in 2021. That's higher than Apple's $15.21 billion, up 18% from $12.85 billion in 2021.

Tesla continues to maintain a fairly broad reach, with shares accounting for about 11% of the average retail portfolio. Investment in Tesla dwindled when the company did a 3-for-1 stock split in August, but it has since outperformed the iPhone maker.

Elon Musk's actions as CEO of Twitter damaged the stock quite a bit. Tesla shares are approaching a 60% drop in 2022 with their worst performance since their 2010 listing. YTD losses outpace the S&P 500's 18% and Nasdaq 100's 31% decline. In turn, Apple shares lost 23% in a year.

According to experts, the situation may change after Musk transfers leadership of the social network and refocuses on the company.

In general, Tesla, Apple and other tech giants have suffered this year due to a sharp rise in borrowing costs. The Fed continues to raise interest rates and investors worry about a looming recession.

"Shorts" out of season

Dear clients,

The sharp drop in U.S. stocks this year has boosted the returns of shortists, who may finally be celebrating their first annual gain since 2018, thanks in part to betting on Tesla, Amazon and other mega-cap stocks that have been building markets for years.

According to S3 Partners, an analytics firm, short sellers — investors who bet on a company’s share price to fall — generated $303.7 billion in realized and unrealized profits in 2022. This is four times more than in 2018, their last profitable year.

The most attractive shorts were Amazon, Meta Platforms, Apple Inc and used car dealer Carvana Co. Tesla's collapse was especially helpful for shorts. The S&P 500 fell nearly 19% on its way to its biggest annual percentage decline since 2008 after the Fed's rate hikes dried up risk appetite.

According to experts, this year was favorable for shorting, as the economic environment stood against the entire market. For years, short positions just didn't work.

Not all short strategies have worked out this year, however. According to data provider HFR, hedge funds that bet on rising or falling stock prices lost 9.7% in November.

Recent years for the "bears" were quite difficult. The anti-covid measures of 2020 brought a loss of $241.7 billion, and in 2021 the shorts lost another $142.4 billion when big rallies in meme stocks like GameStop hurt firms that were betting against such companies.

Gold for the Win

Dear clients,

Gold prices rose above $1,800 an ounce as China lifted lockdown measures and inflation in the US decline. The metal returned to July levels, having won back a two-year minimum of September.

Gold is up more than 9% this quarter on the back of a dollar retreat and hopes that the Fed will slow down its aggressive monetary tightening.

Markets cheered up after Friday's data from the US, which indicated lower inflation and consumer spending, which could dampen the need for further rate hikes. A positive signal was the steps taken by the largest consumer of gold, China, to fully return to the market.

Back to the Future. Tesla shares at the level of 2020

Dear clients,

Decline in Tesla Inc. accelerated on Tuesday, continuing their longest black streak since 2018. The announcement of a possible temporary shutdown of production in China due to new outbreaks of the disease raised doubts about the risks of demand.

Shares of Elon Musk's company tumbled down 11% to $109.10, the seventh consecutive drop and the sharpest one-day drop since April.

The news of the Shanghai production cuts comes on the heels of a report that Tesla is offering American consumers a $7,500 discount to ship two of its highest-volume models before the end of the year, adding to fears of declining demand. For Tesla, whose value depends on its growth prospects, these concerns represent a significant risk.

The hope that Tesla will become a leading company in an EV-dominated future led to an impressive eightfold rally in the stock in 2020, earning its place in the S&P 500 and at one point making it the fifth most valuable stock of the group.

In this year however, the manufacturer lost about $720 billion in shareholder value. The crash is one of the biggest drivers behind the S&P 500's decline in 2022 after Amazon.com Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Apple Inc.

However, the overall analyst stance on Tesla remains bullish, with the highest share of buy or equivalent ratings since early 2015. In their opinion, despite stock performance, Tesla's innovation curve is accelerating, in stark contrast to other big tech companies whose product updates seem stagnant at best.

A Rough Year

Dear clients,

Asian equities rallied while European and US stock futures fluctuated on the final trading day of a rough year for financial markets, with stocks and bonds posting their worst annual gains in more than a decade.

Stock benchmarks in Japan, Australia and China strengthened as S&P 500 contracts faltered, shading the best day this month for the index on Thursday, when it jumped 1.7%. The dollar rebounded from the previous session's decline, with Treasury yields rising and the yen rising as the Bank of Japan announced a third day of unplanned bond buying.

Uncertain direction is undermining hopes for a strong rally in late 2022, a year in which inflation has reasserted itself, wiping out a fifth of global equities in the worst performance since the financial crisis. Few regions have escaped the effects of Asian equities falling more than 19% this year. Bonds lost 16% in value, the biggest drop for a single leading measure since at least 1990, as central banks sought to slow consumer price growth by raising interest rates around the world.

Nasdaq 100 futures also fell sharply after the benchmark index jumped 2.5% on Thursday. The index has lost a third of its value this year as tech stocks have been among the most vulnerable to rising rates.

Concerns about the global implications of a rise in Covid-19 cases in China eased in part when Italy said it had found no new strains of the virus in recent arrivals from China. Italy and the US this week introduced testing requirements for air passengers arriving from China as a wave of infection swept through the world's most populous country.

At the same time, oil rose after a three-day decline due to concerns about increased inventories of raw materials and a possible decrease in demand from China, as a major importer.

Analysts are cautious about predictions, waiting for the next year to begin. Central banks fight against inflation and the resumption of trade in China are among the main benchmarks.

"No Dead-Cats": China's Fuel Demand Strongly Grows

Dear clients,

Oil consumption in China, the world's largest importer, has strongly risen since the coronavirus lockdown was lifted, OPEC member Kuwait assured.

"There is pent-up demand that has built up during the pandemic", said Sheikh Nawaf Al-Sabah, chief executive officer of Kuwait Petroleum Corp. "Now, after the opening, we are seeing a steady increase in demand. It's not a dead-cat rebound."

Traders are closely watching China, believing that the pace of its recovery will be the most important factor determining the movement of energy prices this year.

Brent has fallen nearly 7% since late December to just over $80 a barrel, largely because data from China showed the economic recovery has been patchy. However, analysts including Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Morgan Stanley, predict that the price will exceed $100 in the second half of the year.

Kuwait is the fourth largest oil producer in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. It exports about 2 million barrels a day, or 2% of the world's supply, and China is its biggest buyer.

Natural Interest in Artificial Intelligence

Dear clients,

Shares of Chinese AI makers have been causing a stir in mainland markets of late as the global buzz around chatbot ChatGPT fuels speculative bets on the revolutionary computing technology.

Just two months after launching, ChatGPT, which can generate articles, essays, jokes and even poetry in response to requests, has been voted the fastest growing consumer app in history.

Although ChatGPT is not available in China, mainland investors are still pumping up shares of AI technology companies.

However, at the moment there are no signs that these companies are ready to release a product like ChatGPT. The closest seems to be search giant Baidu Inc, which plans to complete testing of its "Ernie bot" in March. Their shares rose more than 13% on Tuesday after the announcement.

"The industry as a whole tends to speculate on expectations first and then trade on the actual results," said analysts at Beijing Gelei Asset Management.

The new trend has not gone unnoticed among tech giants. Thus, the owner of Google, Alphabet Inc. announced planning its own chatbot service and increasing the amount of artificial intelligence in its search engine. Microsoft, meanwhile, said it had scheduled its AI presentation for Tuesday.
