Hong Kong-listed Kingsoft Software (03888.HK) plunged sharply in the afternoon and is now down more than 9%.Futures July 2, Economies.com analysts latest view today: In intraday trading, gold prices have fallen, which is a natural corrective trend. EMA50 remains an important technical support level for price movements in the short term. This decline is an attempt to get rid of the obvious overbought conditions on the (Relative Strength Index) RSI, especially with the emergence of negative signals, which may help prices accumulate new bullish momentum and support prices to resume their upward trend. It should be noted that the price has previously broken out of the bearish correction channel. As long as the price remains above the above support level and does not fall below the nearest support level, this will maintain the validity of the bullish view, otherwise it may weaken the expected bullish scenario.Futures July 2, Economies.com analysts latest view today: WTI crude oil futures continue to fluctuate in a narrow sideways range between the 65.56 resistance level and the 63.70 support level, indicating that the market is in a state of confusion and wait-and-see, waiting for new momentum to push prices out of this range.

The reason why the market presents this index volatility, but the characteristics of active structural market are determined by the three macro environments of insufficient overall economic returns, structural bright spots, and abundant funds. For the market, the Hang Seng Index has been fluctuating in the range of 23,000 to 24,000 points given by the bank in the past month.

CICC suggests that investors can moderately reduce their positions in the short term, or switch to AI Internet, which is expected to have a stable dividend and has cooled significantly compared with the beginning of the year, and wait for subsequent opportunities.

The U.S. Federal Reserve on Tuesday provided more advise for banks thinking about engaging in cryptocurrency-related operations, highlighting the need for enterprises to inform the Fed beforehand and ensure that anything they do is lawful.


The U.S. Federal Reserve on Tuesday provided more advise for banks thinking about engaging in cryptocurrency-related operations, highlighting the need for enterprises to inform the Fed beforehand and ensure that anything they do is lawful.


In a statement, the Fed stated that although banks may see "potential possibilities" from cryptocurrencies, they should make sure they have mechanisms in place to make sure the volatile assets do not endanger consumer protections or safety and soundness.


Before participating in any crypto-related operations, banks should also inform the Fed, and any institutions that have previously explored crypto projects should inform the Fed about their participation in the digital asset area, the agency said.


Additionally, the Fed urged state member banks to notify their state regulator before engaging in cryptocurrency-related operations.


In the supervisory letter, the Fed advised banks it regulates to take a number of precautions before participating in any crypto-related activity, including as confirming that any proposed operations were lawful and that any necessary filings were required.


In order to guarantee that such ventures were done in a safe and sound way and were compatible with relevant consumer protection regulations, banks should also have proper risk management systems and controls in place before becoming engaged in cryptocurrency, the Fed added.


Just a few days prior, a number of Democratic senators, led by Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, demanded that the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) withdraw its previously issued crypto guidance and replace it with "a comprehensive approach in coordination with other prudential regulators."


The Fed and the OCC, two U.S. banking regulators, jointly stated last year that they intended to make it clear in 2022 what kinds of activities banks could engage in involving cryptocurrencies, including whether companies could hold digital assets on their balance sheet and facilitate crypto trades on behalf of clients.
