Welcome to the Monday Market Update
Hello Traders,
Thanks to everyone who joined us today! I want to remind you that the Monday Market Update is just that—a big picture overview of the markets. I’ll share a few 'charts of interest' along the way. However, there are no trade recommendations here. This isn’t a signal service; it’s simply what I’m looking at and what piques my interest.
Key Highlights from Today’s Update
Today, we examined several key players in the market: FX STAM, The Boeing Company ($BA), Metro Bank Holdings ($MTRO), and Costco Wholesale Corporation ($COST).
In our Monday Market Update for September 22, 2025, we covered the performance of major currencies and indices. The Swiss franc has held its position as the strongest currency for the third consecutive week, followed closely by the euro. The US dollar showed temporary strength after the FOMC's 0.25% rate cut. Sterling's performance was mixed, showing strength against some currencies while weakening against others.
Market Indices Performance
Key indices like the Dow, S&P, and Russell closed at weekly highs. Meanwhile, the Dax remains in a tactical short position. Gold and silver saw significant gains, while Bitcoin displayed potential bearish signs. We highlighted upcoming economic data and central bank meetings as key influencers for the week.
The Usual Suspects
We also covered the usual suspects: $DJIA, $NDX, $SPY, $RTY, $DAX, $FTSE, $N225, $WTI, $XAUUSD, $XAGUSD, $BTCUSD, $USD, $DXY, $JPY, $AUD, $CHF, $NZD and $GBP.
Looking Ahead
As we look ahead, it’s crucial to stay informed about market movements. Keeping an eye on economic indicators and central bank decisions can help us navigate the trading landscape more effectively. Are you ready to adapt your strategies based on these insights?
