🔴China is falling into a prolonged recession: Not a single July economic indicator met forecasts.
- Fixed-asset investment fell 6.7% YoY in the first seven months of 2026 (below the forecast of -6% and the -5.7% recorded in the first six months)
- Private fixed-asset investment fell 9.4% YTD YoY (the sharpest decline since 05/2020)
- Public-sector fixed-asset investment fell 3.3% YTD YoY (the sharpest decline since 04/2020)
-> Over the past five years, whenever the private sector pulled back, public investment made up for it, maintaining steady growth of +5-10%. Now both are negative. The gov

Zhi Xia’s Reflections｜Range-Bound Market
Many friends are most likely to lose money in a range-bound market by opening and closing positions frequently, making small profits on several trades, only to give it all back—or even get trapped—when the range breaks once.
In a range-bound market, remember one key point: trade only the highs and lows of the range, and do not chase the back-and-forth price action in the middle. Short at resistance and go long at support. Once the price effectively breaks through the range boundary, immediately abandon the range-bound strategy—do not stubbornly hold on

8.18 Gold, Tuesday afternoon
It surged to a high of 4370 on the 7th of this month, followed by a pullback on the 10th. It has now risen again to test the highs around 4440. The previous consecutive surge has already exhausted the rebound momentum, and a subsequent pullback and adjustment is the prevailing trend. Overall, maintain a bearish outlook and focus on shorting at highs!
After surging to test the high around 4440 this morning, it came under pressure and pulled back. Resistance above is evident, and the bulls lack follow-through after the surge. The market is currently undergoing high-l

#Japan5YearYieldHitsRecordHigh
My view: the move is significant, but the message is bigger than just a 2 basis point increase.
Record-high 5-year Japanese government bond yields indicate that the market no longer sees Japan as the world's perpetually low-yielding exception. Investors are increasingly pricing in a regime where the Bank of Japan will continue tightening rather than simply normalizing. Recent reports suggest that markets are highly likely to see a Bank of Japan rate hike in September, followed by a faster pace of tightening.
Three forces appear to be converging:

How to Read a Crypto Candlestick Chart 📊
Candlesticks are the language of price action. Each candle shows four key points: Open, High, Low, and Close (OHLC).
🟢 A bullish candle means buyers pushed price higher.
🔴 A bearish candle shows sellers had control.
The body shows the distance between open and close, while the wicks reveal where price was rejected.
Look for patterns around support and resistance, then confirm with volume and market structure. Never trade a single candle in isolation—context matters.
Read the price, understand the story, then make the decision. 🎯

#NvidiaAndOpenAISecure12GWCompute
Nvidia has made a deal with OpenAI and SB Energy. They are going to get 12GW of power for their intelligence computers in Ohio. This deal is for 20 years. The first part of the power 4.25GW will be ready by 2028. This is a commitment. It means Nvidia and OpenAI are planning for a time, not just a short time.
They are doing this because they want to make sure they have power for their computers. Now the biggest problem is not the computers themselves but getting enough power and space for them. SB Energy is helping with this.

#GateRecordsOver273MIn7-DayNetInflows
Gate has recorded more than $273 million in net inflows over a seven-day period, highlighting strong capital movement into the platform and growing market attention around the Gate ecosystem.
A figure like this is worth watching because net inflows provide an important signal about how much capital is moving into an exchange compared with capital leaving it. While inflows alone do not guarantee future price movements, sustained positive flows can reflect increasing user activity, stronger participation and greater confidence in the platform.
