On July 6th, Tatsuo Yamazaki, former head of Japans foreign exchange policy and former finance minister at the Ministry of Finance, stated in an interview that the yen should appreciate by up to 20% from its current level (approximately 130 yen to the US dollar), refuting bets that the yen might weaken further. Yamazaki stated, "This is no longer a fundamental issue, but rather a question of how market expectations will change. But we are approaching a climax." He believes that the current estimate of the yen being undervalued by 10% is likely conservative. "I wouldnt be surprised if the yen rises to around 130. Frankly, thats my view." At the same time, Yamazaki suggested that the market should not mistake the recent apparent calm from Japanese authorities for complacency. He stated, "They have issued warnings, and anyone still holding short yen positions knows they face the risk of intervention and punishment—forced liquidation. The Ministry of Finance has gone beyond the warning stage; the authorities have indicated their willingness to take action."July 6th - In the third quarter of 2026, Shenzhen plans to launch 30 new residential projects, with an estimated supply of 882,821 square meters and 7,212 units.

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.
