Nasdaq could move into downward territory
The Nasdaq rose 13% in January amid expectations that the FED would put its monetary tightening on hold. Meanwhile, at a Q&A with the Economic Club of Washington, Jerome Powell stated that the Federal Reserve could take rates even higher than the market predicts. If we add to that weak corporate reporting and the general tech slowdown, a drop in the Nasdaq could definitely be on the cards.

Risk warning. Trading in financial instruments and other assets, particularly leveraged products such as CFDs, is complex and carries a high risk of losing money rapidly. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses, so small market movements can lead to disproportionate losses. The value of the assets referenced may rise or fall, and you may lose your entire invested amount. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The use of artificial intelligence, algorithms, automated strategies, or any other analytical tool in trading does not guarantee any particular outcome, does not eliminate risk, and does not replace your own judgement — you remain fully responsible for assessing every instrument, strategy, and decision, and for the results of your trading.
