Sources say Goldman Sachs is in talks with potential investors about participating in Nvidias (NVDA.O) $500 billion AI funding round.On August 14, Hengfu Holdings (00641.HK) announced that trading in its shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was temporarily suspended from 9:00 a.m. on Friday, August 14, 2026, pending the publication of further information regarding the placement of new shares.August 14th - Speculative investors are increasingly betting on another rate hike by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) in November, as inflation remains above the central banks target. Swap market pricing currently estimates a 45% probability of a 25 basis point rate hike by November, up from 38% before Tuesdays RBA rate decision. Trading activity in the November 2026 interbank cash rate futures contract, traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) derivatives market, rose to a more than three-month high, indicating increased speculative interest. These bets suggest growing market skepticism that the RBAs tightening cycle is not yet over. Although policymakers kept rates unchanged this week, traders will continue to watch upcoming price and employment market data for clues as inflation remains above the RBAs 2%-3% target range.August 14th - According to foreign media reports, South Korean President Lee Jae-myungs approval rating has plummeted to a record low, reflecting growing public dissatisfaction with his housing policies. These policies have failed to cool the overheated real estate market, while the governments proposed real estate tax reform has also sparked concerns. A Gallup Korea poll released Friday showed Lee Jae-myungs approval rating had fallen to 44%, a 7-point drop from the previous survey released in July. The decline in support among younger voters was particularly pronounced, with only 30% of respondents in their 20s expressing support for him. Support for Lee Jae-myungs Democratic Party also fell by 3 percentage points to 41%, while support for the main opposition People Power Party rose from 23% to 25% during the same period.At the close of the morning session, most domestic futures contracts rose. Rapeseed oil and lithium carbonate rose by more than 2%, while industrial silicon, soybean meal, low-sulfur fuel oil (LU), fuel oil, live pigs, synthetic rubber, polysilicon, and coking coal rose by more than 1%. On the downside, palladium fell by more than 3%, silver and platinum fell by more than 2%, and stainless steel (SS) and gold fell by nearly 2%.

Bitcoin More Likely to Crash to $10K Than Hit $30K: Market Survey

Bloomberg's most recent Markets Live (MLIV Pulse) weekly poll measures investor mood. According to information published on July 11, the study questioned 950 investors last week about their predictions for whether Bitcoin will rise again or continue to fall.


The findings were unambiguous: 60% of respondents believed that the asset was more likely to continue to decline and hit $10,000 than to rise to $30,000.


The source said that "the lopsided projection highlights how gloomy investors have grown."


Even if a small sample of investors cannot be used to draw firm conclusions, it does provide a glimpse of investor sentiment, which is still overwhelmingly negative.


Only 40% of people predicted that Bitcoin would surpass $30,000 before it reached $10,000. The asset lost ground over the weekend after sliding near support at $20,000 during the Asian trading session on Monday morning.

Fear among Retail Investors

The research also noted that individual investors were more wary than institutional investors. Nearly 25% of those polled said digital assets were "trash," yet a comparable percentage believed they represented the future of banking.


Nearly a third of institutional investors said they were cautious but maintained an open mind, and 26% said they were confidence in the asset class despite the state of the markets.


Jared Madfes, a partner at venture capital company Tribe Capital, told the publication that there wasn't simply anxiety in the cryptocurrency markets. He said, "It's really simple to be frightened right now, not just in crypto but generally in the globe," before claiming that the poll findings and forecasts of more losses reflect "people's natural dread in the market."


On Monday morning, the "fear and greed" index for the mood toward bitcoin indicated a level of "severe fear" or 22 out of 100. This condition has existed for more than a month.


Since reaching a record of over $69,000 in November, bitcoin values have fallen by almost 70%. However, the asset has been consolidating for almost three weeks at the present price levels, where things seem to have steadied.

Future Price of Bitcoin

At the time of writing, BTC was down 4.1 percent over the previous 24 hours and was trading at $20,564. On Saturday, it rose to a weekend high of $21,871, but it has been unable to hold onto those gains.


Should the asset fail to hold the $20K mark, which seems probable at the time, there is support slightly over $19,000. If past bear markets are any indication, this one might see prices drop by more than 82 percent, verifying the forecasts of the study and returning to the $12K level.
