On May 17th, TsLombard stated that an aggressive tightening cycle is unlikely. Faced with the oil price shock, the extent of policy tightening by global central banks is likely to be quite limited. In Europe, the energy shock is already dragging down economic activity. The UK labor market has been volatile for some time, and hiring sentiment in Europe is becoming increasingly weak. In our view, the tightening力度 of the ECB and the Bank of England this year will be less than the market expects, and this possibility is currently underestimated. In the US, the likelihood of the Federal Reserve implementing policy tightening in the short term is small, and even if it does, it is almost certain to be before 2027.On May 17, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government announced the activation of the alert level under the "Ebola Virus Preparedness and Response Plan" to protect public health.

Crypto Market Daily Highlights – DOGE and ADA Lead a Bearish Top Ten

For the top 10 cryptos on Wednesday, it was a negative session. Leading the way down were DOGE and ADA, with MATIC and XRP far behind. Notably, BTC fell below $16,500 for the first time in eight sessions while failing to reach $17,000 for the eighth straight session.


Throughout the midweek session, the cryptocurrency market was dominated by a bearish mood. As market worries about Fed monetary policy and the growing possibility of a harsh landing propelled riskier assets into the red, hopes of a post-holiday recovery receded.


With China's economy scheduled to reopen and demand likely to jump, along with Russia's embargo on oil shipments to nations with price limits, concerns about another spike in inflation that would compel the Fed to raise rates longer are still prevalent.


The US unemployment rate is at 3.7%, which is lower than the Fed's target rate of 5.0%. This gives the Fed plenty of leeway to maintain its aggressive interest rate trajectory.


The most recent spike of new COVID-19 cases throughout China is another factor contributing to the long list of economic challenges. While China has eliminated the need for quarantines, other nations are starting to place travel restrictions on people coming from China.


The S&P 500 lost 1.20%, while the NASDAQ Index dropped by 1.35%


US unemployment claims data will be of importance today. Better-than-expected results might trigger another sell-off since investors are uneasy about the Fed. The cryptocurrency market will probably continue to follow the NASDAQ Index until there is a significant crypto event. The NASDAQ mini gained 24.5 points this morning.
