September 4th - Industry insiders believe that due to chip shortages and supply chain bottlenecks, the price of Apples foldable phone may be significantly higher than expected. IDC predicts the average selling price of the phone will be $2,550. IDC projects that Apple will sell over 17 million foldable phones by the end of 2027, generating over $45.7 billion in revenue.Stifel raised its price target for Microsoft (MSFT.O) from $450 to $530.Mizuho Bank lowered its price target for Intel (INTC.O) from $109 to $92.On September 4th, it was learned from the China Development Bank (CDB) that on September 3rd, CDB successfully issued RMB 5 billion of 3-year green financial bonds through the China Foreign Exchange Trading Centers issuance system at the Shanghai Clearing House, with an issuance interest rate of 1.27%. This marks the first time CDB has used online book-building to issue green financial bonds, effectively improving issuance efficiency and transparency. The projects involved in this green financial bond issuance were strictly selected according to the "Green Finance Supported Project Catalogue (2025 Edition)," with a green rating of G1 (the highest level). The funds raised will be primarily used for key areas such as green infrastructure upgrades, energy-saving and carbon-reducing industries, green and low-carbon energy transformation, and ecological protection, restoration, and utilization. This issuance represents a new attempt by CDB to optimize its bond issuance pricing mechanism and narrow the price gap between the primary and secondary markets, as well as a new exploration of empowering green and low-carbon financing through market-oriented methods.On September 4th, BNP Paribas economists stated in a report that the persistent energy price shock, coupled with the resilience of the Eurozone economy, suggests the European Central Bank (ECB) may raise interest rates once in September and once in December. Economists expect the ECB to raise rates next week, while potentially raising its economic growth and inflation forecasts, further supporting the case for tightening monetary policy. Continued high energy prices and a strong economy make a second round of effects more likely, although current signs are still limited. Economists indicated that policymakers will continue to view the risks to the inflation outlook as skewed to the upside.

On Thursday, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) joined the larger market in the green. Despite Fed Chair Powell's hawkish speech on Wednesday, US economic indicators fell short of forecasts, alleviating Fed concern. The technical indications continue to be optimistic, indicating rising price movements. The price of Ethereum (ETH) increased by 0.86 percent on Thursday. ETH finished the day at $1,531, partially correcting a 3.80% drop from Wednesday.

 

Due to a rocky start to the day, ETH fell to a low of $1,515 early on. Avoiding the First Major Support Level (S1) at $1,475, ETH climbed to a morning high of $1,559. However, after falling short of the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $1,593, ETH plummeted further below $1,530 before US economic indicators provided support.

Bitcoin (BTC) climbed by 0.29% on Thursday. BTC concluded the day at $20,223, partially reversing a loss of 1.63% from Wednesday. Notably, BTC broke a four-day losing trend by avoiding sub-$20,000 territory for the ninth consecutive day.

 

BTC reached a mid-morning high of $20,404 after a strong start to the day. BTC plummeted to a midday low of $20,052 after failing to surpass the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,629 during the trading session. Despite avoiding the First Major Support Level (S1) at $19,900, BTC retested $20,356 before retreating.

 

US economic figures supported cryptocurrency prices, with the crucial ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI below expectations.

 

The ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI decreased from 56.7 to 54.4 in October. Economists anticipate a drop to 55.5.

 

The subcomponents of the Index were diverse. ISM's Non-Manufacturing Employment Index decreased from 53.0 to 49.1. The Prices Index increased from 68.7 to 70.7. The unit labor costs increased by 3.5% in Q3 compared to 8.9% in Q2.

 

While the statistics were favorable for cryptocurrencies, Fed Chair Powell's recent comments weighed on the NASDAQ Composite Index. The NASDAQ Composite Index declined by 1.73 percent on Thursday.

 

The US jobs report will have a significant impact on the NASDAQ Composite Index and the cryptocurrency market today. Due to the sensitivity of BTC and ETH to US economic statistics and the FED, the correlation with the NASDAQ Composite Index remains intact. The NASDAQ 100 Mini gained 17.75 points this morning.
