The enthusiasm which was expected was not visible in the stock market on Wednesday morning. Like Wall Street, today trading in Asian markets is also happening in a very limited range. It seems that investors are waiting for some big news or ‘trigger’ and are currently sitting with their fists clenched.
The situation is such that the markets of South Korea and Australia are sometimes swinging between red and sometimes green marks, while Japan’s index is showing a slightly mixed effect.
There was a break in crypto also
The boom that was being seen in digital currency i.e. cryptocurrency has now stopped. Bitcoin, which had gracefully crossed $90,000 in the last session, has started declining again. This may be a matter of some concern for crypto investors.
Why are investors scared?
There are two big reasons behind this peace in the market-federal Reserve And bank of japan,
Decisions on the interest rates of these two banks are going to come this month. Investors want to see what steps US and Japanese banks take before making any big bets. Also, Australia’s economic growth (Q3) has been lower than expected, causing the currency there to weaken.
Traders are treading very cautiously ahead of next week’s Fed meeting. A decline has also been seen in S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures in America.
