According to a report by Golden Finance, a Reuters/Ipsos poll shows that Trump's support rate has fallen to 38%, the lowest level since his return to the White House, due to Americans' dissatisfaction with his handling of the cost of living and the investigation into Epstein. The four-day poll, which concluded on Monday, also shows signs of weakening Trump’s control over the Republican Party. At the beginning of his second term, 47% of Americans approved of him. The nine-point drop since January brings his overall support rate close to the low point of his first term and near the lowest level achieved by his Democratic predecessor, Biden. Biden's support rate had fallen to as low as 35%, while Trump's support rate during his first term had dropped to 33%. Only 26% of Americans say Trump is doing a good job managing the cost of living, down from 29% earlier this month.

According to ChainCatcher news, reported by Jin10, U.S. bank and financial stocks are on the verge of falling below key support levels, sending warning signals to the entire stock market.

Golden Finance reports that, according to the American financial media Semafor, the artificial intelligence company Humain, supported by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund, plans to announce a series of new agreements with American companies tomorrow, as the country is planning to invest billions of dollars in a program aimed at becoming the world's third-largest artificial intelligence nation. Sources familiar with the matter revealed that Humain is planning to collaborate with companies including Amazon, AMD, xAI, and GlobalAI to announce the construction of multiple gigawatt-level data centers. According to the sources, these agreements are expected to follow the approval of the sale of a large amount of semiconductors to Saudi Arabia by the United States. It remains unclear how many of these agreements are new and substantial, or merely indicators of progress on agreements announced during U.S. President Trump’s visit to Riyadh in May.

Barr stated that regulatory work relies on a reliable rating framework, forward-looking regulatory measures, and a highly skilled workforce. He added that measures such as "reducing the scope of examiner coverage, weakening the rating system, and redefining the 'unsafe and unsound' business standards long adhered to by the banking industry" would make it difficult for examiners to take action before it is too late.

Hui emphasized that the goal of developing financial technology (FinTech) is to "empower the real economy," rather than speculative trading. He cited asset tokenization (Tokenization/RWA) as an example, pointing out that Hong Kong is exploring its application in real economic scenarios such as international shipping leasing and corporate fund management, and mentioned that the successful issuance of the third batch of digital green bonds by the SAR government is an important step towards normalization. Hong Kong has enacted relevant laws, with the goal of starting the issuance of stablecoin licenses next year, but the initial number of licenses will be very limited, and regulation will be prudent, clearly stating that stablecoins are aimed at addressing pain points in the real economy such as cross-border payments.

This information gap weakens market liquidity expectations and exerts pressure on speculative assets, leading to a further fall in Bitcoin's price.

PANews, November 18 - According to analysis from the crypto market market maker Wintermute, last week's fall in the crypto market was primarily driven by the repricing of expectations for a Fed rate cut in December, rather than any issues with the market fundamentals. Bitcoin needs to re-enter the range to improve market sentiment. Analysis indicates that part of the pressure comes from the selling behavior of large holders. Typically, the sell-off from Q4 to Q1 is seasonal, but this year this trend has occurred earlier, partly due to market expectations that the four-year cycle may imply weaker performance in the coming year. This expectation has accelerated risk-off operations, amplifying market volatility. However, this decline does not have substantive fundamental issues and is mainly driven by macro factors in the United States. Although short-term interest rate adjustments affect market sentiment, there are no signs of deterioration in the global macro environment. The world is still in a loose cycle: Japan plans to launch a $110 billion stimulus package, and China continues to implement loose policies.

According to a report from Deep Tide TechFlow, analyst Markus Thielen pointed out on November 18 that there have been data signals warning of a price adjustment for Ethereum recently. Since the summer, the price of Ethereum has mainly been supported by continuous buying from Bitmine. As this buying pressure has receded, coupled with the fact that the cumulative net inflow into Ethereum ETFs has reached $10 billion and long positions are at a high level, the lack of new funds to take over has led to price pressure.

BlockBeats news, on November 18, Wang Feng, the founder of Blueport Interactive, stated that since Bitcoin fell below $100,000, he has been quietly buying the dip, dip, dip... (implying that there is an endless amount of buying the dip). He also mentioned that if we disregard policies and the realization of external factors in the US stock market, and solely look at the internal situation of the crypto market, there is more focus today on stablecoins, which are expected to be prominently featured in 2025. Just because policies are relaxed doesn't mean the market is prosperous, and the scale of minting by various parties does not represent liquidity in practical scenarios. Issuance is one thing, application is another. We should observe more the application of stablecoins in the market and the performance of actual businesses. Whether there is strong liquidity demand in the stablecoin market is what truly determines the direction of the crypto market's next steps in terms of being bullish from an internal perspective. We look forward to more media and research institutions providing updates, data, and briefings on the dynamics of the stablecoin market.

BlockBeats news, on November 18, The Federal Reserve Board of Governors member Christopher Waller publicly expressed support for a further interest rate cut of 25 basis points at the December meeting, focusing on the ongoing weakness in the labor market and concerns over pressures on middle and lower-income consumers. Waller defined this as "risk management style" rate cuts, believing that in the absence of official data, it is better to provide insurance in advance to avoid a rapid deterioration in employment. Meanwhile, the hawkish voices within the Fed have not subsided, and the split in votes makes the next decision full of variables—whether to maintain interest rates or cut them again, there could be at least three dissenting votes. Policy expectations are no longer one-sided, and the market needs to hedge between the "possibility of rate cuts" and "increasing policy divergence." Under this policy fog, the crypto market has shown significant pressure. The panic indicator is currently at 12, trading volume surged 51% in the past 24 hours, and market shocks have sharply amplified; 24
