On February 4th, Novo Nordisk (NVO.N) shares listed in the US fell more than 13% on Tuesday after the company unexpectedly warned that its 2026 sales would decline more sharply than expected, due to price pressures impacting sales of its best-selling diabetes and weight-loss drugs in the US. The Danish company stated that it expects global sales for the full year of 2026 to decline by 5% to 13% compared to 2025 levels (excluding currency fluctuations). In contrast, sales grew by 10% in 2025. The company stated that US sales would decrease due to price reductions for drugs including Ozempic and Wegovy. They noted that the company recently reached an agreement with the Trump administration to lower drug prices. The main ingredients of these two drugs will also lose patent exclusivity in some countries outside the US, potentially opening up opportunities for low-priced generic competition. This deteriorating outlook is yet another piece of bad news for this once-rapidly growing company, a pioneer in the weight-loss drug market.The Nasdaq China Golden Dragon Index fell further to 2%, with WeRide (WRD.O) and Bilibili (BILI.O) dropping more than 5%, and Alibaba (BABA.N) and iQiyi (IQ.O) falling more than 4%.The Federal Reserve accepted a total of $1.785 billion from 18 counterparties in its fixed-rate reverse repurchase operations.On February 4th, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated on February 3rd that Russias GDP growth in 2025 is projected to be 1%, a slowdown in line with expectations.

Currency Trading Forex

Forex currency trading may be the correct choice for you if you're seeking for a very liquid trading environment that allows you to speculate on a practically 24/6 currency market. Forex trading should be confined to risk money, and while the off-exchange foreign currency market has certain unique hazards, it can present a chance for educated traders to benefit from a very busy worldwide market.

The Basics of Forex Currency Trading

It is a worldwide market for currency exchange between governments, as well as for individual investors or dealers. As the name indicates, the retail off-exchange forex market does not take place on an exchange, which means that there is no physical site where all currencies are traded.

 

A critical and fundamental point to grasp about forex is that it is traded in pairs. This implies that you are simultaneously purchasing and selling a currency. For instance, you initiate a trade in the European euro versus the US dollar, or EUR/USD. This indicates that you expect the euro will appreciate in value relative to the dollar. On the other hand, if the euro depreciates against the dollar, you risk losing your whole investment, or even more. If the euro increases in value and you wish to benefit, you would "unwind" your position by selling the euro and purchasing the dollar. That is a fairly simplified example, but it should illustrate how forex works in general.

Considerations

Consider the following before engaging in forex trading:

 

Leverage: Using a little quantity of money to control a huge investment. This enables high potential returns, but caution should be exercised because it can also result in significant losses.

 

Market that operates nearly 24 hours a day, six days a week: Respond quickly to market circumstances and economic events by trading almost 24 hours a day, six days a week — from Sunday to Friday.

 

Liquidity: Forex is an extremely busy market with an enormous volume of trading, particularly in the largest currencies. Trading some of the more esoteric pairings may raise worries about liquidity.

 

Forex currency pairs are exchanged in 10,000-unit increments with no fee. However, the bid/ask spread reflects the cost of the trade.
