A busy week for a number of markets with the US dollar hit on Wednesday FOMC meeting and Friday’s weak NFP release, while in the US equity space, heavy earnings releases from Amazon, Block, Apple and Coinbase kept traders busy. The world’s second-largest company gave the market a considerable boost, announcing earnings beats across the board, an improved dividend and the biggest corporate buyback ever, worth $110 billion. Apple shares jumped about 9% on Thursday before giving back some gains on Friday.

The technology heavy Nasdaq ended the week in positive territory and at the highest level in more than two weeks. A bear flag formation can be seen on the charts, but a break above trend resistance cannot be ruled out.

The Japanese yen rose sharply against the US dollar during the week, driven by strong rumors of official intervention. After peaking just above 160.00, USD/JPY tested previous support at 151.92 on Friday. The Japanese yen has gained across the board this week and is likely to continue this trend in the coming weeks.

USD/JPY Daily Price Chart

Gold ended the week lower, but the precious metal failed to break the previous support level around $2,280/oz. Lower US Treasury yields should be boosting gold, but that is not happening now. The CCI indicator suggests that gold is oversold.

Daily Gold Price Chart

Bitcoin rose sharply on Friday due to little news. The CCI indicator shows that BTC/USD was heavily oversold on Wednesday and this coincided with Bitcoin’s upward movement. A breakout and open above the $65K level leaves $69K as the next target.

The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has digitized 42 million car titles using blockchain, it was reported by Reuters, through technology company Oxhead Alpha on the Avalanche blockchain and designed to detect fraud and facilitate the securities transfer process.

“This is an incredible development for crypto,” Cuban, best known as an investor on TV’s Shark Tank and owner of the Dallas Mavericks NBA team, posted on X, joking that U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler could sue the state as part of his hostility toward cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

“The reason this is huge for crypto is because people who hold the tokens will have an app with an Avalanche wallet,” Cuban said. “Tens of millions of Californians having and using a crypto wallet in the next five years, or however long it takes, normalizes the use of wallets and crypto.”

John Wu, president of Avalanche developer Ava Labs, told Reuters that California’s DMV is “creating a wallet that you can download on your phone.”
