Market Update - November 17th 2023

  1. Bitcoin and ether dip early, but recoup some gains later in the week: Bitcoin and ether had a sudden drop on Tuesday as equity markets roared following a favorable inflation report. Both cryptos, however, retraced losses quickly. Ether was also boosted on Thursday as BlackRock filed its S-1 for a spot ether ETF with the SEC.
  2. Solana’s upward trajectory continues as Cathie Wood touts the network: Solana gained ~8% this week as ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood praised the network’s speed and cost-effectiveness in a CNBC interview. Solana has rallied ~150% over the past 30 days and is up more than ~325% over the past year.
  3. Equity markets soar as inflation cooled in October: Lower-than-expected inflation data released on Tuesday fueled a strong rally across equities, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq both gaining over 2% on the day. The favorable inflation data suggests we may be nearing the end of the Fed's interest rate hiking cycle, which has brought rates to a 22-year high.
  4. Avalanche partners with JPMorgan and Apollo to bring blockchain to portfolio management: Avalanche announced a partnership with J.P. Morgan and Apollo Global Management during this week’s Singapore Fintech Festival to use blockchain technology in portfolio management. The initiative, overseen by the Singapore Monetary Authority’s (MAS) Project Guardian, plans to leverage blockchain smart contracts and tokenization to automate and simplify portfolio management.
