It was a mixed end to the month for the crypto market. Despite SEC v Ripple uncertainty, XRP was among several top ten coins to find support.

Crypto Market Daily Highlights – XRP Joins DOGE and BNB in the Green

Key Insights:

  • It was a mixed Monday session for the crypto top ten, with dogecoin (DOGE) on the move, while ethereum (ETH) saw red.
  • A bearish end to the month for the NASDAQ Composite Index weighed on the broader market, while XRP, BNB, and DOGE enjoyed bullish sessions.
  • The crypto market cap fell by $0.506 billion to end the month at $971.9 billion.

It was a mixed Monday session for the crypto top ten. Dogecoin (DOGE) resumed its move towards $0.20, with binance coin (BNB) and ripple (XRP) also bucking the trend. However, BTC saw red for the second time in four sessions while avoiding sub-$20,000 for a sixth consecutive day.

There were no US economic indicators, leaving the NASDAQ to influence. Following last week’s Fed pivot-fueled gains, market caution returned as investors prepare for Wednesday’s FOMC interest rate decision and press conference.

Ahead of Wednesday’s decision, key stats include ISM Manufacturing PMI, JOLTs job openings, and ADP nonfarm employment change figures. Following the mixed stats from the week prior, we can expect sensitivity to the numbers.

Today, US economic indicators include ISM Manufacturing PMI and JOLTs job openings.

For both reports, the markets will look beyond the headline numbers. From the ISM survey, new orders, cost pressures, and employment will likely be focal points, with quit rates an area of interest from the JOLTs report.

While the markets have baked in a 75-basis point November hike, uncertainty lingers over the December move.

Going into the Tuesday session, the FedWatch Tool had the probability of November and December rate hikes at 89.2% and 47.1%, respectively. One week ago, the likelihood of a 75-basis point hike in December stood at 54.9%.

Crypto market sensitivity to US economic indicators and the FED leaves the correlation with the NASDAQ 100 in place near term. This morning, the NASDAQ 100 Mini was up 26.25 points. On Monday, the NASDAQ Composite Index fell by 1.03%.
