A key Wall Street player has adjusted its expectations for the precious metal. The gold forecast for the end of the year has been cut by $500 to $4,900 per ounce. The main reason is a sharp shift in market expectations regarding the Federal Reserve's monetary policy.
Analysts have revised their base case scenario. Even with this significant adjustment, the bank maintains a positive outlook on gold for the second half of the year, but it is no longer as optimistic as before...

The market draws conclusions: what lies behind the current correction and where institutions are heading
After several weeks of steady growth, we are observing a natural correction phase. This is not just a technical drawdown—it is a moment when the market is reassessing its priorities. Liquidity is gradually flowing from speculative altcoins back into Bitcoin and leading first-tier assets.
Key signal — a decline in volumes on altseason indicators. The BTC dominance index (BTC.D) has stabilized above the 55% mark, indicating a return of the "bearish grip" by large holders...

The cryptocurrency market is accustomed to volatility. Sharp price drops are part of the game, and the industry typically handles them without serious consequences. Far more dangerous, in my opinion, is the state we may currently be observing: a prolonged and sticky consolidation. This is not just boredom—it is a slow poison for investors' faith in the asset's future growth.
Analyzing the current situation, I conclude that the main threat to Bitcoin is not a black swan in the form of a sudden crash, but the erosion of its narrative...
