【4E: Increased market uncertainty, risk assets under pressure, risk aversion sentiment rises】On January 9, news from 4E monitoring indicates that in recent days, due to the dramatic reduction in expectations for the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts for the entire year, or even the cessation of rate cuts, macroeconomic uncertainty has increased, and risk assets are generally under pressure. On Thursday, U.S. stock markets were closed for a day in mourning for the late former President Carter. The cryptocurrency market continues to decline, exacerbated by the news that the U.S. Department of Justice has been authorized to sell $6.5 billion worth of Bitcoin seized from the Silk Road dark web, intensifying market fears. Bitcoin briefly dipped to $91,200 this morning, hitting a new low since December 5 of last year, and is currently slowly rebounding above $93,000, with the decline over the past 24 hours narrowing to 1.3%. After briefly returning to $100,000 on Tuesday, Bitcoin has dropped for three consecutive days this week and is re-testing the lower end of its range, with market reliance on the 'January bull market' noticeably weakening, leading to a rise in risk aversion sentiment. Bitcoin futures open interest data shows that speculative momentum is declining, as traders choose to close positions and wait due to market uncertainty. In the forex market, Federal Reserve officials have lowered rate cut expectations, causing the dollar index to rise slightly for three consecutive days, while non-dollar currencies generally fell. Cold weather has driven an increase in winter fuel demand, with U.S. oil and Brent crude rising about 1% on Thursday. Spot gold rose over 0.3%, marking two consecutive days of increase, reaching its highest level since mid-December. Non-farm payroll data will be released on Friday, and the market will reassess the Federal Reserve's stance, potentially facing significant volatility. eeee.com is a financial trading platform supporting cryptocurrencies, stock indices, precious metals, forex, and other assets, which recently launched a USDT stablecoin wealth management product with an annualized return of 5.5%, providing investors with a potential risk aversion option. 4E reminds you to pay attention to market volatility risks and to allocate assets appropriately.
