Exness Team Pro Member, Kojo Forex's journey to success. Was he born to trade?
From trading in a tiny room to partnering with Exness Team Pro, Kojo Forex's story is one of grit, determination, and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. His commitment to empowering others has made him a leading force and inspiration for Ghana's new generation of traders.
Your technical analysis is very well–regarded. Does this mean you're team ‘technical’? What are your thoughts on fundamentals?
I'd say I'm about 80% technical, and the remaining 20% focusing on fundamentals. But my approach has evolved over time. Initially, I was a scalper chasing quick profits in short timeframes. Eventually, I realised that sustainable trading requires a broader perspective. That’s when I shifted my focus to day trading and swing trading, concentrating on the four-hour timeframe.
This change in perspective was a game-changer. I discovered that the markets are interconnected across different timeframes. The volatility I once chased on shorter timeframes now informs my analysis of the four-hour chart. It's like the market speaks the same language, just with varying degrees of detail.
Now, I leverage my day trading knowledge to refine my swing trading entries and exits. While I still keep an eye on the shorter timeframes, I don't get sucked into the noise anymore. I focus on the bigger picture, the overall trend of the market. It's a less stressful approach that’s more aligned with my long-term goals.
Are there any financial assets that you favor?
The Pound has always been my go-to asset, I’ve been trading it since day one. My first significant loss was GBPUSD due to a lack of risk management. I was doubling down on a long position while the market was headed south. It took a couple of days to blow the whole account.
That was a wake-up call, a harsh reminder that discipline and sticking to a strategy are crucial in trading. Through this experience, I also realised I needed to delve deeper into the fundamentals and technical aspects of the asset class. Luckily, this was during the Brexit saga, which was ideal for studying and trading it well.
But even after Brexit, I stuck with the pound. My success with it earned me nicknames like "GBP Legend" and "Emperor of the Pound."
You seem deeply committed to mentoring people who are pursuing trading. What inspires your passion, and what role do you see yourself playing in developing the rising trend of trading in your region?
Trading is becoming popular in Ghana, and I don’t want to be just another trader. I want to be someone who can inspire and guide the next generation. Trading can be a powerful tool for empowerment, but it requires knowledge, discipline, and the right mindset. By mentoring others, I can help them navigate the complexities of the market and develop the skills they need to succeed.
Personally, mentorship is about more than just teaching people how to read charts and place trades. It's about building real, personal connections with my community. Understanding their struggles, motivations, and dreams.
When I started trading, I never had a mentor, but I was lucky enough to have a group of friends who shared the same passion for trading. We learned together, supported each other, and pushed each other to grow. That experience taught me the value of community and the power of shared knowledge. It's why I'm so committed to giving back to the trading community in Ghana. I want to be the mentor that I never had, to guide and support others on their journey to financial freedom.
Mentorship is about knowing that I’ve played a part in their growth. I want to inspire and guide people, help them realise their potential, and make a real difference in their lives and communities.
If you could give one piece of advice to someone starting their trading journey now, what would it be?
Before you think about placing a trade, figure out what trading means to you. Are you looking for a side hustle, or do you see this as a potential career path? This distinction is crucial because it will determine the level of commitment and resources you need to invest.
If trading is a side hustle, it's not that big of a deal; you can experiment, learn, and see what works for you without too much pressure. But if you aim to make trading your main source of income, it's a whole different ball game. It's a huge responsibility, and you must be prepared for it. With trading as your full-time job, you have to treat it like a business. It means you’re the CEO, the accountant, the risk manager, all in one. It’s a huge responsibility, and you need to be prepared for that.
That doesn’t mean you can’t transition from a side hustle to a full-time gig. It’s totally doable, but it requires planning and dedication. Start by building a solid foundation of experience, developing your trading strategy, and aiming for consistency.
The key is to be realistic and honest with yourself. Don't get caught up in the hype of quick riches. Trading takes time, effort, and continuous learning. But if you're willing to put in the work, it can be an incredibly rewarding path.

Born to trade? How Dennis Okari, an investigative journalist turned into professional trading
In this interview with Dennis Okari, we delve deeper into his partnership with Exness, his commitment to mentoring, and his vision for the future of trading in Kenya and beyond.
Being a journalist means that you have the knowledge to investigate how certain events affect the economy and the markets. Does this mean you're more interested in fundamental analysis?
While my journalism background is helpful, I'm primarily a technical trader. However, I strongly believe in a balanced approach. I use fundamentals to see the underlying factors. Fundamentals provide the context—the 'why' behind those movements. Technical analysis helps me spot patterns and trends in the market.
For me, it's like having a toolkit. Technical analysis gives me the tools to navigate the charts, while fundamentals help me understand the bigger picture. Together, they give me a comprehensive strategy and a deeper understanding of what drives the markets.
My experience as a journalist has given me a unique advantage in this regard. I've always had a knack for digging deeper and seeing beyond the headlines. This skill translates directly to trading. For example, during Brexit, my in-depth understanding of the political landscape in the UK gave me valuable insights into how the Pound might react. Similarly, my reporting on the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict helped me anticipate their impact on various assets.
This investigative mindset also informs my trading style. When I was a journalist, time constraints often dictated my trading approach. I focused on swing trading, identifying opportunities, and letting them pan out over longer periods. Now, with a full-time focus on trading, I can explore shorter-term opportunities through day trading. Technical analysis becomes even more critical in this context, allowing me to identify patterns and trends without relying solely on fundamental news.
Are there any financial assets you favor?
I began my trading journey with EURUSD, drawn to its volatility, which is ideal for day trading. As I gained experience and refined my strategies, I discovered that my approach could be adapted to various financial instruments.
I expanded my focus to include USDJPY, and now I trade a wide range of assets, from major currency pairs to indices and commodities. While my core trading philosophy remains consistent across these diverse markets, I tailor my specific strategies to suit the unique characteristics of each asset class. For instance, commodities often exhibit more pronounced trends than currencies, so my approach to trading oil might differ from my strategy for EURUSD.
What is your opinion on cryptocurrencies? Is there a crypto summer on the horizon? Most importantly, do you want to share your views with traders who want to navigate such a volatile asset class?
I'll be honest: I prefer to stick with what I know well. While I'm aware of cryptocurrencies' potential, their extreme volatility gives me pause. Sure, crypto is exciting, but it also comes with significant risks. I prefer to focus on more established markets where I have a deeper understanding of the underlying factors.
That said, I'm not an expert on cryptocurrencies, and I wouldn't want to advise without a full grasp of the intricacies involved. However, for those considering venturing into the crypto space, I'd emphasize the importance of thorough research, a keen eye for patterns, and meticulous risk management. The volatility of cryptocurrencies means that the potential for gains and losses is magnified compared to other markets. So, if you decide to trade crypto, proceed with caution and a well-informed strategy.
What differentiates Exness from other brokers, and what do you think is the key to its success?
The Exness terminal is a game-changer. It's designed to be an all-in-one hub where you can seamlessly manage your pending orders, view real-time calculations, and execute trades without ever leaving the platform. It's incredibly efficient and user-friendly, allowing me to focus on what matters most – making informed trading decisions.
This dedication to streamlining the trading process, combined with its robust technology and commitment to client satisfaction, is the key to Exness' success. Exness understands that traders need a reliable and intuitive platform to navigate the complexities of the financial markets. By continuously innovating and prioritizing its clients’ needs, Exness has created a trading environment that empowers traders to reach their full potential.
You seem deeply committed to mentoring people who are pursuing trading. What inspires your passion, and what role do you see yourself playing in developing the rise of trading in your region?
My passion for mentoring stems from my own journey and the transformative power of financial freedom. I vividly remember the joy and sense of accomplishment when I purchased my first washing machine and dining room table with my trading profits. It was a tangible reminder that I could achieve financial goals beyond my regular salary.
This experience ignited a desire to share my knowledge and empower others to achieve their dreams. I love seeing the spark in my students' eyes as they grasp new concepts and the pride they feel when they achieve their first profitable trade. It's immensely gratifying to guide them through the challenges and pitfalls I faced, helping them avoid unnecessary mistakes and accelerate their learning curve.
By fostering financial literacy and providing accessible education, I can help empower individuals to take control of their financial future. My ultimate goal is to cultivate a thriving community of traders who are not only knowledgeable but also confident and responsible in their approach to the markets.
What is the one piece of advice you could give someone who is beginning their trading journey?
Start now, but start with education. Knowledge is the cornerstone of any successful endeavor, and trading is no exception. No one is born with an innate understanding of the markets, so invest time learning the fundamentals.
Remember, success in trading isn't solely measured by profits. It's about personal growth, resilience, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks. Everyone's journey is unique. Focus on continuous learning, develop a solid strategy, and, most importantly, don't be afraid to start. The best time to begin your trading journey is now.

No Fine Print: Why transparency matters in the world of trading
Transparency - a given, not a nice-to-have
The global Contract for Difference (CFD) market has grown spectacularly over the past decades and shows no signs of slowing down, with an estimated annual compound growth rate of 4.3% from 2023 to 2028. CFD trading offers convenient, low-cost access to assets like oil, gold, currencies, and stocks, making it appealing to traders worldwide. Yet, with this convenience comes complexity—and that means risk.
CFDs are intricate financial instruments, and brokers often have flexibility in setting fees and spreads, which are not always fully disclosed. This is when transparency becomes critical for traders seeking fairness and clarity in their transactions. Transparency is no longer a “nice-to-have” but a foundational expectation in today’s trading landscape.
As traders’ preferences evolve, so does their expectation of transparency. The "Born to Trade" spirit calls for clarity and reliability, and Exness, one of the world’s largest brokers, leads by example, setting the standard for transparency and trustworthiness.
Why is it important?
In the complex world of trading, where markets can change in milliseconds, traders need clarity on fees, policies, and practices to make informed decisions and build trust with their brokers.
Transparency in trading is about more than disclosure; it’s about enabling traders to make empowered decisions based on clear, reliable information. Here’s how transparency plays out in practice:
Clarity on fees and costs: Transparent brokers offer straightforward information on fees, commissions, and spreads, ensuring traders know exactly what they’re paying and why. This transparency removes hidden charges and surprises.
Insight into execution practices: Transparency includes providing details on how orders are executed and what factors influence pricing. Brokers that clearly explain their execution practices give traders confidence in how their trades are handled.
Open communication channels: Reliable customer support and clear communication build trust by providing traders with timely responses to questions and concerns, enhancing their trading experience.
When brokers operate transparently, they build trust and confidence, allowing their clients to focus on what matters most: achieving their trading goals.
How technology exemplifies transparency
As the demand for transparency grows, technology has become a critical tool for brokers aiming to meet this expectation. Hidden fees and unclear terms can erode trust, instilling feelings of uncertainty.
Through advanced data analysis, algorithmic pricing, and high-speed execution systems, brokers can create a trading environment that offers real-time data and supports tight, predictable spreads and efficient transaction processing. These technological advancements allow brokers to maintain consistency, even during high volatility, by minimizing price deviations, ensuring that trades are executed with precision.
Exness: Fueling traders’ decision-making
Exness is a prime example of a broker leveraging technology to achieve transparency and build trust. The company ensures that all traders—regardless of experience level—can access accurate information on spreads, fast execution speeds, and risk management tools.
Through pricing algorithms and real-time data analysis, Exness maintains tight and stable spreads, even during volatility periods such as high-impact news*. This consistency ensures traders avoid unexpected price shifts, making costs predictable and transparent.
Exness’ infrastructure is also designed to offer better-than-market conditions with ultra-fast trade execution. With latency as low as a few milliseconds, slippage is minimized, focusing on bridging traders to the prices they expect. By reducing the time it takes to execute trades, Exness enhances transparency and gives traders more control over their transactions.
Seamless withdrawals are another result of Exness’s technological investment. Automated systems monitor trading activity around the clock, flagging any potentially suspicious actions. This setup enables Exness to streamline withdrawals, allowing 95% of requests to be processed in under 1 minute. This efficiency aligns with Exness’ commitment to transparency by ensuring that funds reach their rightful owners without delays (at least on the broker’s end), adding another layer of trust and reliability.
By providing full visibility on pricing and eliminating hidden fees, Exness fosters a trusting relationship with its traders. Exness’ approach to transparency means that all terms are clear, fees are straightforward, and policies are crafted for traders’ ease of understanding.
Whether it’s spreads, fees, or execution times, Exness provides traders with the complete picture, allowing them to make proactive, strategic decisions. This creates an environment where trust and accountability are no longer a matter of expectation. Exness' commitment to transparency and accountability as its core values, together with multiple regulatory licenses, has garnered the trust of hundreds of thousands of traders, transforming the company into one of the world's largest retail brokers.
*Spreads may fluctuate and widen due to factors including market volatility and liquidity, news releases, economic events, when markets open or close, and the type of instruments being traded

The invisible enemy: Why your biggest trading challenge is lurking between your ears
An opinion article by Negin Sadat Negahdari, Exness Senior Business Development Manager
As traders, we often obsess over external factors, meticulously analyzing every market fluctuation, yet neglect the internal landscape that truly dictates our journey in the markets. In reality, the most formidable opponent traders face isn’t in the market; it's in their minds. Yes, trading psychology, often overshadowed by technical analysis and market strategies, is the hidden engine that powers traders’ consistency.
While many aspire to conquer the markets, few truly grasp the profound impact of their thoughts and feelings on their trading outcomes. Without emotional resilience and a disciplined mindset, even the most well-researched trading strategy can unravel the moment your trading activity is at stake. Developing a disciplined trader mindset isn’t just important; it’s essential.
Consider the seismic shift from demo to live trading. In the risk-free environment of a demo account, strategies feel clear, confidence is high, and there’s little fear of loss. But in the high-stakes world of live trading, clarity is often clouded by fears of loss or the tantalizing lure of quick gains. Suddenly, decisions that seemed straightforward become loaded with emotion.
The crucial takeaway here? Consistent trading isn’t just about predicting the markets but mastering oneself. The big disconnect is that an overwhelming majority of traders recognize the need for a concrete strategy yet struggle to consistently translate that strategy into disciplined action. Emotions like greed, regret, FOMO (fear of missing out), and ego insidiously creep in and hijack our rational minds, sabotaging even the best-laid plans.
Greed might compel a trader to hold a winning position for too long, ignoring warning signs in hopes of ever-higher profits. FOMO can lure traders into impulsive decisions, jumping into trades without solid analysis, undermining consistency. Regret—those nagging “What if?” thoughts—can lead traders to chase the market instead of assessing it objectively. Then there’s ego, driving traders to prove themselves right at the expense of rational analysis. Each of these emotions interferes with decision-making and often ends in regret.
Interestingly, experience plays a role in how traders handle these psychological challenges. Younger traders are often more susceptible to emotional decisions. But there is good news. As traders become more seasoned, they rely more on concrete strategies than gut feeling. This is the power of self-awareness at play.
This shift hints at trading psychology maturing over time – a skill honed by experience and reflection. Keeping a trading journal, for example, is like holding a mirror to our minds, allowing us to identify the emotional triggers that influence our trading decisions. Setting realistic profit targets, implementing risk management, and cultivating a disciplined approach to trading can help traders start eliminating self-defeating habits.
Consistency in trading isn’t about being right every time; it’s about managing risk well and using mistakes as stepping stones for improvement. As George Soros wisely said, “It’s not whether you’re right or wrong, but how much money you make when you’re right and how much you lose when you’re wrong.” This perspective teaches traders to view losses as part of the process, shifting the focus from individual trades to overall growth.
Ultimately, trading psychology is a skill that separates those who merely dabble in the markets from those who build resilience and endurance. For traders striving to achieve lasting results, mastering the mind is as crucial as mastering the charts. Emotional resilience, discipline, and self-reflection are the foundations of a consistent trading career. Without them, your financial gains will be as unpredictable as the markets themselves.

The Oracle of Omaha is bracing for a market shake-up
Warren Buffett’s recent moves at Berkshire Hathaway are raising eyebrows across global markets. The “Oracle of Omaha” has offloaded nearly $10 billion in Bank of America stock, while steadily accumulating cash and buying back Berkshire shares. This shift has traders asking: what does Buffett see coming?
While Buffett has always championed long-term investing in quality businesses, his latest actions may indicate deeper concerns. With a growing cash reserve, he appears to be preparing Berkshire to weather potential storms. Investors may want to take note, as these decisions could offer insights into broader economic trends.
Cash is king—again
Buffett’s cash build-up suggests caution. His approach has always been conservative, but his remarks about “casino-like” markets last year hint at skepticism about today’s valuations. Holding more cash provides flexibility to take advantage of buying opportunities in downturns. For traders, this could mean that keeping an eye on cash-equivalent assets and the US dollar index (DXY) may reveal how markets react to perceived overvaluation.
Bank stocks and blue-chip shares
With Berkshire selling Bank of America shares, some might wonder if there are concerns about the banking sector. Although Berkshire has historically been a big player in financial stocks, Buffett’s latest moves imply he might see risks in the sector’s exposure to rising interest rates and economic fluctuations. Watching USD pairs like USD/JPY or USD/CHF could offer traders insight into how the dollar responds to shifts in the financial sector.
Meanwhile, Buffett’s buybacks signal confidence in Berkshire’s value. This focus on blue-chip stability could mean traders should consider monitoring indices tied to established, resilient companies. Despite cuts in tech holdings like Apple, Buffett’s actions point towards safer assets—ones that weather volatility well.

The biggest economic events you shouldn’t ignore in week 41
On Monday, October 7, the EU Sentix Investor Confidence release will be the first to grab attention. Scheduled for 08:30 GMT, this survey measures investor sentiment across the Eurozone. The euro, European equities, and even global indices like the DAX are expected to feel the ripples from this report. The last reading showed declining confidence, and if this trend continues, it could signal further economic pessimism in the Eurozone. Euro traders might want to brace for either relief or disappointment.
Tuesday, October 8, brings the German Industrial Production numbers at 06:00 GMT. With Germany being the powerhouse of Europe, industrial production stats are always a key indicator of overall economic health. The euro and the DAX will be directly affected, but global markets could also react, depending on the data. Last month's numbers came in weaker than expected, so markets are anticipating either a rebound or continued contraction. A stronger-than-expected report could give the euro some upward momentum, while another weak release would reinforce recession fears.

The coming black swan hype: Is it legit?
You’ve probably seen or heard the term “Black Swan event” popping up in financial media recently. What exactly is a black swan event, and is one coming?
A true Black Swan event can’t be predicted—by definition. If someone is forecasting one, they either don’t understand the concept, or worse, they’re using it to generate fear and hype. Let's cut through the noise and talk about what a Black Swan really is and why traders should not let the term throw them off their strategy
.
What is a Black Swan event?
A Black Swan event, as popularized by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, refers to an event that is:
Extremely rare and outside the realm of regular expectations.
Unpredictable, meaning no existing models or data could have reasonably anticipated it.
Massively impactful, causing widespread consequences across markets, economies, or societies.
The key takeaway is that Black Swan events are so improbable that they can’t be foreseen, even by experts. This is where the current media usage of the term gets things wrong.

Don’t fall for the growing oil crisis narrative yet
As tensions escalate between Israel and Iran, talks of supply disruptions are triggering sentiment shifts and market volatility, but what might really happen to USOIL prices in the coming weeks?
One of the oldest adages in trading is “buy the rumor, sell the news.” This approach or perspective suggests that prices often rise on speculation (or rumors) of a potential event but fall when the actual event comes and goes and the news is fully digested. Let’s break down the USOIL narrative forming right now.
The Rumor - Fear of a broader Middle East conflict has led to speculation about supply disruptions, driving oil prices up.
The News - As the conflict progresses and news confirms that oil supplies remain relatively unaffected, prices could fall back to previous levels, as the panic subsides and the market realizes the worst-case scenario has not materialized.
That’s one example of how investor sentiment alone can move markets without a real-world underlying mechanism or change. Those holding and refining crude oil prefer the prices to be high, but not too high, as it tends to trigger political tensions and even trade wars.

How football formations can help you find the perfect trading portfolio
Whether selecting a team formation for a particular match or selecting trading assets for a particular market, balancing aggression with risk management is a must.
Football formations
There are three common formations:
4-4-2: Four defenders, four midfielders, and two forwards.
4-3-3: Four defenders, three midfielders, and three forwards.
3-5-2: Three defenders, five midfielders, and two forwards.
Each formation has its strengths and weaknesses, and coaches choose the formation based on the team’s strategy and the opponent’s tactics.
Diversifying your portfolio
In trading, diversification means spreading your investments across different types of assets to reduce risk. Just like a balanced football team is important for winning, a diversified portfolio is key to trading. Here’s how you can relate football formations to your trading portfolio:

The upcoming release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, has the attention of market participants across the globe, but will it reveal truth or another economic narrative?
This CPI economic indicator, which measures changes in the prices paid by consumers for a basket of goods and services, is widely watched for its potential implications on Federal Reserve policy and broader financial market trends.
Consensus expectations and potential impacts
The consensus points to a modest increase in the CPI for September, potentially similar to, or slightly lower than, the 0.6% increase seen in August. The focus is on the core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, as it is said to provide a clearer picture of underlying inflationary pressures.
Almost every statement suggests a positive near-term. Look at how optimistic the US Treasury gauges the US economy.
“Today, the global economy remains resilient—driven in large part by the United States’ remarkable economic performance. Instead of faltering, U.S. GDP grew by a robust 3.1 percent during 2023. And new data from just this morning shows growth of 2.8 percent in the second quarter of this year, affirming the path we’re on to steady growth and declining inflation.”
Janet Yellen - US Secretary of the Treasury (August 25, 2024)
But how grounded is the optimism? If the CPI figure aligns with market forecasts, the response may be relatively muted, as investors have already priced in the anticipated increase. However, a CPI reading exceeding expectations could trigger concerns about persistent inflation, potentially leading to a stock market decline, bond market sell-off, and US dollar appreciation as the Federal Reserve may be compelled to raise rates further.
Conversely, a CPI figure below expectations could suggest easing inflationary pressures, potentially resulting in a stock market rally, bond market rally, and US dollar depreciation as investors anticipate a less aggressive Fed policy.

The Standard and Poor’s 500, also known as the (S&P 500 or US500 index, is widely regarded as the most critical index. It tracks the performance of the 500 largest publicly listed companies on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and NASDAQ stock exchange, as well as the Cboe BZX Exchange. The US500 serves as arguably the best single gauge for offering a comprehensive view of the market conditions for various industries and sectors, and for reflecting investors' confidence and future expectations.
Financial indices like the US500 are not merely numbers or abstract values; they are tracking tools that help investors make informed decisions. By analyzing their performance, investors can gauge general economic trends and assess their investments' risks and opportunities.
This article explores the world of the US500 to discover how it is composed and its unique importance compared to other indices like the Dow Jones and NASDAQ. We also look at the companies listed within this index and how their movements affect the broader market. Understanding the US500 is not only a fundamental step for any investor aiming to achieve success but also a gateway to understanding the deeper dynamics of global financial markets.

Carrying trading and how JPY is holding the global economy together
We’re seeing a lot of heavy-hitter investors switching to cash, and at the center of this sentiment shift is JPY.
Let’s explore JPY and carry trading for insights into trading the markets in the coming weeks.
What is carry trading?
Carry trading is when traders borrow money in a currency with low interest rates, like the Japanese Yen (JPY), and invest it in higher-yielding assets. This strategy works well when there’s a significant difference between the interest rates of two countries.
Why JPY is central to carry trading
The JPY has been a popular currency for carry trades because of Japan's long-standing low interest rates. Investors borrow in Yen at almost no cost and use that money to invest in assets elsewhere, where returns are much higher. This can include U.S. stocks, Mexican bonds, or even Japanese equities.
JPY’s role in global markets
When traders use Yen to fund investments, it adds liquidity to the global markets. This helps to support asset prices and contributes to economic growth worldwide. However, this system can be quite delicate, depending heavily on the Bank of Japan (BOJ)’s interest rate policies.
BOJ policy and Its global impact
Recently, a slight interest rate hike by the BOJ caused a significant move in the Yen, leading to the unwinding of many carry trades. This sell-off in global risk assets, including U.S. equities, shows just how crucial the JPY is in this trading strategy. Even a small change in Japanese rates can trigger widespread market reactions as traders rush to cover their positions.
The risks involved
Carry trading isn’t without risks. If the currency you borrow (like the Yen) suddenly strengthens, you could face steep losses. This happened recently when the BOJ’s rate hike led to a stronger Yen, causing a wave of sell-offs as trades were unwound.

The news that sculpted sentiment for this week As we glance back at last week’s news, several significant events took place in the financial world, offering insights and setting the stage for what might come next this week.
Here's a summary of the most impactful developments in trading, economics, and global markets.
Federal Reserve and interest rate speculations
All eyes were on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell as investors eagerly awaited his highly anticipated speech at an economic conference. The focus was on clues regarding the Fed's next moves, particularly how soon and how aggressively they might begin cutting interest rates. With the Fed’s benchmark interest rate sitting at a 23-year high, any hints about easing could have substantial implications for market strategies and economic outlooks.
Rising energy costs and economic impact
In the UK, the energy regulator Ofgem announced a 10% increase in the energy price cap starting in October. This change means that households will face higher energy bills as winter approaches, adding pressure on consumer spending. The increase is expected to ripple through the economy, potentially dampening consumer confidence and impacting overall economic activity during the colder months.
Mortgage market competition heats up
In Australia, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia made a bold move by cutting interest rates on select home loans for new customers. This decision reignited fears of a mortgage war, as other lenders might follow suit, leading to more aggressive competition in the housing market. Such competition could drive changes in lending practices, affecting both new borrowers and the broader real estate market.

Will global debt trigger a full recession in September?
In recent months, the financial world has been shaken by a series of events that signal the start of what could be the most significant global debt crisis in modern history.
The latest developments, particularly in Japan, have set the stage for what experts believe is the beginning of the global sovereign debt bubble's unraveling. As economic indicators continue to deteriorate and geopolitical tensions rise, the next 24 months could define the future of global finance.
The US Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate hikes, now at their highest level in 23 years, have rippled across the world, impacting economies far and wide. Japan, a key player in the global financial system, has been particularly hard hit. The Bank of Japan’s decision to maintain low interest rates while the Fed increased theirs led to a sharp depreciation of the yen, reaching levels not seen since the 1990s. This, coupled with Japan’s staggering debt-to-GDP ratio of 260%, has created a precarious situation that could have global consequences.

In recent months, the financial world has been shaken by a series of events that signal the start of what could be the most significant global debt crisis in modern history.
The latest developments, particularly in Japan, have set the stage for what experts believe is the beginning of the global sovereign debt bubble's unraveling. As economic indicators continue to deteriorate and geopolitical tensions rise, the next 24 months could define the future of global finance.
The US Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate hikes, now at their highest level in 23 years, have rippled across the world, impacting economies far and wide. Japan, a key player in the global financial system, has been particularly hard hit. The Bank of Japan’s decision to maintain low interest rates while the Fed increased theirs led to a sharp depreciation of the yen, reaching levels not seen since the 1990s. This, coupled with Japan’s staggering debt-to-GDP ratio of 260%, has created a precarious situation that could have global consequences.

Stock market freefall: Is it the end, or just the beginning?
The global stock market has been in a tailspin this last week, sparking the question: buy the dip or brace for impact?
The recent decline across indices has ignited a fierce debate between those who believe a catastrophic global crash is imminent and those who see it as a mere correction. Fear can trigger sentiment shifts, and the markets look very apprehensive. Let’s explore current market sentiment for some insights into where we are heading in the coming weeks.
The crash conspiracy
Whispers of a grand conspiracy fill the air as some analysts point to eerie parallels with past market crashes. They argue that the market is a house of cards, built on inflated tech valuations and propped up by manipulative investment firms. The sudden drop, they claim, is a carefully orchestrated maneuver to change the world order.
Are we really witnessing a meticulously planned financial apocalypse? Will the conspiracy theorists who are forecasting the great collapse have to wait until next year to hype up the doom and gloom, or is it really happening… right now? Should we start shorting Indices soon?

Exness firefighting initiatives set to defend Cyprus against wildfires
Rural areas in Cyprus face increasing threats from devastating wildfires, risking the nation's natural landscapes. Following the fires of 2021 in Limassol and Larnaca, Exness pledged €300,000 to enhance the Department of Forests’ firefighting capabilities. We exceeded this commitment, ultimately doubling the donation, resulting in a comprehensive plan to combat this significant issue.
Ourresponse began with a donation of three state-of-the-art firetrucks and a pick-up truck equipped with a water pump, providing firefighters and communities with essential tools to swiftly respond to future threats. To restore ecosystems damaged by the wildfires, we also organized a tree-planting initiative, adding 400 trees to the affected areas.
Recognizing the need for proactive measures, we partnered with the Cyprus Institute of Technology to develop three innovative unmanned drones capable of detecting fires and alerting the Department of Forests at an early stage. To support the use of these drones, we then covers the costs of three drone operators for two years. This innovative approach to fire detection has the potential to revolutionize wildfire prevention. These efforts have earned Exness two Responsible Business Awards.
