The crypto markets were lower this morning, with the majority of top 10 cryptos registering losses over the past 24 hours.
UK stocks ended the day in positive territory yesterday. Despite that, Russian firms such as natural-gas giant Gazprom, oil company Lukoil, and major bank Sberbank crashed in London markets. The bank’s shares are trading as low as a penny as it sets to exit Europe.
US markets ended the day higher yesterday, on the back of encouraging statements from Fed Chairman Jerome Powell regarding the upcoming rate hikes. Powell supports a 25-basis-point rate hike, putting an end to speculations of a greater increase.
Markets may be impacted by the ISM Services PMI data, set to be released at 15:00 GMT.
