Market Notes
In the US stock markets, the strong announced October retail sales data following the lower-than-expected CPI and PPI data disrupted the positive environment and caused sales. Because the good retail data is considered to be a signal that the inflationary effects will not disappear in a short time. In addition, after the Fed members' speeches, sales were seen in the indices again.
On the European side, Euro Zone stock indices closed the day with decreases by 0.3% to 1.1% due to the upward pressure on policy rates, due to developments in Poland and 11.1% in the UK, the highest inflation in the last 41 years. In the cryptocurrency market, the volume-free days continue. On the Bitcoin side, pricing continues to hover below $17,000. It is currently around $16,500. Ethereum, on the other hand, continues its movement in an effort not to lose $ 1200.
Bitcoin continues to move within a narrow band above $16,000 below $17,000. The pair could start a recovery if it surpasses the $17,000 intermediate resistance zone. However, the retail sales index from the USA yesterday blocked this expectation and there was some pullback in Bitcoin. Technically, the $16,000 and $15,000 support levels remain.
