Perhaps the most discussed news on Monday morning was the release on the Chicago exchange of futures for Bitcoin, the most popular cryptocurrency in the world. At the time of the release its price broke the mark of $16,000 and continued to grow. Interest in the asset is heated by both traders and trading platforms to provide ready access to it, but the spreads and volatility of this instrument are very large.
As for the US dollar, on Wednesday we can expect an increase in interest rates by the Federal Reserve and on Thursday the ECB will publish inflation forecasts and plan a possible rise in interest rates for the euro.
After the release of Friday's employment data in the US futures indices in Japan and Australia have started a new climb.
In addition, after the release of US data on oil stocks and the amount of drilling the price of WTI crude oil has started to decrease and currently amounts to $57.24 per barrel.
