Hit Banking Forex Digital Assets Research Supervisor Jay Frey Kendrydesk3cryptocurrencydesktopCrypto News
Jeffrey Kendrick, head of FX and digital asset research at Standard Chartered, said that "the price of bitcoin is likely to hit a new high in August and top $100,000 by election day." Mr. Kendrick's prediction hinges on whether Joe Biden remains in the US presidential race - a scenario seen by markets as conducive to a Trump victory. Analysts at Standard Chartered see Mr. Trump as "positive on bitcoin", noting that the former president's chances of election are positively correlated with the price of bitcoin. "The logic here is that both regulation and mining will be better off under Trump."

The market speculates that Trump's reciprocal tariff calculation formula: trade deficit/total exports to the United States divided by 2Well-known financial journalist James Surowiecki posted that just figured out where these fake US tariff rates are coming from. They don't actually calculate tariff rates + non-tariff barriers as they say. Instead, for each country, they just divide the US trade deficit with that country by that country's exports to the US. So the US has a trade deficit with Indonesia of $17.90 billion and its exports to the US are $28 billion, $17.90/$28 =...
