On May 22, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Guo Jia-kun held a regular press conference. At the conference, Guo announced that China, as the rotating president of the UN Security Council for May, will host a high-level meeting of the Security Council on May 26, with the theme of "Upholding the Purposes and Principles of the UN Charter and Strengthening the International System with the UN at its Core." Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister, will travel to New York to chair the meeting. Guo explained that as the rotating president of the UN Security Council for May, Chinas initiative to convene this high-level meeting will focus on the contemporary value of the UN Charter, upholding and implementing its purposes and principles, and strengthening the authority and effectiveness of the UN and its Security Council—issues of widespread international concern. The meeting will be chaired by Foreign Minister Wang Yi and is open to all UN member states. Foreign ministers and high-level representatives from many countries have confirmed their attendance, and UN Secretary-General António Guterres will attend and provide updates. "We hope that all parties will take this meeting as an opportunity to reaffirm the lofty goals established by the Charter, reaffirm their firm commitment to multilateralism, and revitalize the UNs status and role with greater unity and responsibility, thus pooling greater efforts to reform and improve global governance," Guo said.Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski: Details of the US troop deployment are still unclear.May 22 - ING analysts say the market is still looking for signs of progress on a potential US-Iran deal. Despite some optimistic signs, uncertainty remains. This is not the first time a seemingly imminent agreement has ended in a breakdown in negotiations. Therefore, a large portion of the market remains skeptical of the positive signals we are seeing. While Iran has stated that the gap between the demands of both sides has narrowed, the issues of its uranium enrichment activities and its uranium stockpile remain. The US wants to move these stocks out of Iran. Another issue is the management of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is pushing for a formal toll system in the strait, a move that will face considerable resistance. If implemented, it would set a dangerous precedent for the free passage of ships in this crucial global chokepoint. With the weekend approaching, uncertainty surrounding a US-Iran deal remains, and any new shifts in the wind could lead to significant market price volatility.The chart shows that at 22:00 Beijing time on May 22, there will be large foreign exchange options contracts for the Euro, Canadian Dollar, and Japanese Yen expiring, including 12 contracts with strike prices exceeding 1 billion.

Wednesday saw Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) join the larger market in the red. The NASDAQ Composite Index, Bitcoin, and Ethereum all fell in response to Fed Chair Powell's news conference. Nevertheless, the technical indications continue to be optimistic, indicating upward price trends. On Wednesday, Ethereum (ETH) fell 3.80%. Reversing Tuesday's gain of 0.32%, ETH closed the day at $1,518.

 

After a turbulent morning session, ETH recovered to a high of $1,622 by late afternoon. ETH surpassed the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $1,606 prior to falling to a late low of $1,506. ETH ended the day below $1,520 after breaking through the First Major Support Level (S1) at $1,556 and the Second Major Support Level (S2) at $1,535.

On Wednesday, the price of bitcoin (BTC) plummeted by 1.63 percent. BTC ended Tuesday at $20,165, a decrease of 0.04% from its opening price.

 

BTC rose to a high of $20,817 in response to the FOMC Statement, following a range-bound morning. BTC surpassed the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $20,686 before falling to an intraday low of $20,086. BTC went below the First and Second Major Support Levels (S1 and S2) at $20,327 and $20,154, respectively.

 

In accordance with forecasts, the Fed raised rates by 75 basis points on Wednesday. The FOMC Statement hinted at a likely policy move in December, lending credence to December Fed pivot wagers. The Rate Statement pushed BTC and ETH to their daily peaks.

 

However, Fed Chair Powell dashed prospects for a reversal, citing excessive inflation and the need to continue forward. Powell remarked that the "final level of interest rates will be higher than anticipated."

 

As a result, the NASDAQ Composite Index fell 3.36 percent, sending BTC and ETH into the negative.

 

Today, attention will be on US factory orders, jobless claims, and the ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI. We anticipate the PMI and its subcomponents to have the most effect.

 

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 was up 35 points this morning.
