Iceland’s hesitation over EU membership is not just about politics, it is a question of economic control.

Iceland already enjoys access to the European single market through the EEA, while keeping greater independence over its currency, fisheries and domestic economic policy.

That makes the trade-off unusually difficult.

Joining the EU could offer:
• Greater currency stability
• Potentially lower borrowing costs
• Deeper integration with European capital and trade markets

But staying outside allows Iceland to preserve control over one of its most strategic economic assets: its fisheries.

For investors, the bigger lesson is clear:

Economic integration is not always about joining the largest bloc. Sometimes, maintaining policy flexibility and control over strategic resources can be just as valuable.

Iceland’s recent vote shows that, for many voters, the current balance still looks more attractive than full EU membership.

The Strait of Hormuz could be entering a new phase.

Iran and Oman have reportedly agreed on a framework to share revenues linked to the management and use of the Strait of Hormuz — one of the most important energy shipping routes in the world.

Why does this matter?

Around 20% of global oil and LNG shipments normally pass through Hormuz.

If this agreement helps normalize shipping traffic, the market impact could be significant:

🛢️Oil prices could face further downside pressure as supply-risk fears ease.
🥇Gold could lose some safe-haven demand if geopolitical tensions decline.
₿ Bitcoin and equities could benefit from a broader risk-on environment and lower inflation expectations.

The key point is that this is not yet a guaranteed full reopening of the Strait.

Markets will now be watching whether the agreement develops into a broader deal that restores normal commercial shipping.

For oil traders especially, Hormuz remains one of the most important geopolitical catalysts to watch.

Could U.S. Treasury policy help send Bitcoin to a new all-time high?

The connection is becoming increasingly important.

As the U.S. Treasury steps up bond buybacks and markets speculate about greater use of the Treasury General Account, long-term yields have started to ease. If this leads to lower yields, a weaker U.S. dollar, and more liquidity in the financial system, Bitcoin could be one of the major beneficiaries.

The potential chain reaction:

Treasury intervention → lower yields → improved liquidity → weaker dollar → stronger demand for Bitcoin and other scarce assets.

However, Treasury buybacks are not the same as Federal Reserve QE. For Bitcoin to make a sustained move toward its previous all-time high near $126,000, the strongest setup would likely require several factors working together:

• Falling Treasury yields
• A weaker U.S. dollar
• Continued institutional and ETF demand
• Greater market liquidity
• A more dovish Federal Reserve

Bitcoin is once again showing how closely it can react to changes in global liquidity and confidence in traditional financial assets.

The next few weeks could be very important.

On August 5th, I published on TradingView that Bitcoin had broken above the 64,600 resistance level on the daily chart.

The short-term trend had turned bullish.

Since then, Bitcoin has continued to show why key technical levels and market positioning matter.

The $72,000 area was more than just a price target, it represented an important zone where momentum, liquidity, and trader sentiment could determine the next major direction.

Markets move quickly, but having a clear technical framework helps identify potential opportunities before the move develops.

As always, the key is to watch price action, support and resistance levels, volume, and overall market sentiment rather than reacting after the move has already happened.

📉 Wall Street’s “Fear Gauge” Hits a 2026 Low
But Don’t Get Too Comfortable

The VIX, widely known as Wall Street’s fear gauge, has fallen to its lowest level of 2026, reflecting unusually calm market conditions.

For equities, this is generally supportive. Low volatility often accompanies strong risk appetite and can help maintain bullish momentum across the S&P 500, Nasdaq and Dow Jones.

But technically, an extremely low VIX can also signal complacency.

When volatility expectations become too compressed, markets can become more sensitive to unexpected catalysts such as:

• Inflation surprises
• Federal Reserve policy changes
• Rising bond yields
• Geopolitical developments
• Sharp moves in oil prices

A low VIX does not automatically mean a correction is coming. However, it does mean that investors are pricing in relatively little uncertainty.

That creates an important risk: when expectations are this calm, even a modest negative surprise can trigger a much larger volatility spike.

📊 Technical takeaway:
As long as the VIX remains subdued and major U.S. indices continue holding above key support levels, the broader equity trend remains constructive.

But traders should avoid becoming overly comfortable.

Low volatility can support a bull market until volatility suddenly returns.

Silver: 1980 vs. 2011 vs. 2026
Is History Repeating Itself?

Silver has experienced several spectacular rallies followed by equally aggressive corrections.

In 1980, silver approached $50/oz after the Hunt brothers accumulated massive positions in the physical and futures markets. Exchange restrictions, forced liquidation, and Paul Volcker’s aggressive interest-rate hikes eventually triggered the collapse.

In 2011, silver again approached $50, driven by quantitative easing, inflation concerns, a weak U.S. dollar, and speculative demand. Higher margin requirements and heavy profit-taking then pushed the market sharply lower.

In 2026, silver reached approximately $115/oz before experiencing a major correction.

But there is an important difference today.

Silver is no longer driven only by investment and safe-haven demand. Structural demand from solar energy, electronics, EVs, electrical infrastructure, and technology is playing a much larger role.

From a technical perspective, the $59.50–$60 area remains a key level.

As long as silver holds above this former resistance zone, the broader bullish structure may remain intact. A confirmed break below it, however, could signal a deeper correction.

History rarely repeats exactly but it often provides valuable lessons.

1980: speculation and market concentration.
2011: monetary stimulus and speculation.
2026: structural demand combined with speculative excess.

The key question now is whether the recent decline is the end of the silver bull market or simply a major correction within a longer-term uptrend.

Silver Confirms Its Uptrend 📈

confirmed its bullish trend after breaking above the key $59.50 resistance level on the daily chart on August 5th.

This breakout marked an important technical shift, with the former resistance zone now becoming a key level to watch for potential support.

As long as Silver remains above this area, the short-term technical outlook remains bullish, with buyers maintaining control of the market structure.

The next sessions will be important to see whether momentum can continue and push Silver toward higher resistance levels.

📈 Why Are the Dow Jones and Nasdaq Still in a Bull Trend?

U.S. equities continue to show strong bullish momentum, with both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Nasdaq Composite maintaining positive market structure.

The Dow closed at 54,036.93, while the Nasdaq advanced to 26,690.62, with the Nasdaq showing significantly stronger momentum.

Several factors continue to support the bullish trend:

🔹 Lower rate-hike expectations
Weak U.S. employment data has reduced expectations for further Federal Reserve tightening, supporting equity valuations.

🔹 Falling Treasury yields
Lower bond yields make equities particularly growth and technology stocks more attractive.

🔹 Strong technology momentum
AI, semiconductors, software and mega-cap technology stocks remain major drivers behind Nasdaq strength.

🔹 Healthy technical structure
Pullbacks continue to attract buyers, while the broader trend remains characterized by higher highs and higher lows.

🔹 Improving risk sentiment
Lower energy-price pressure and easing geopolitical concerns have also helped improve investor appetite for risk assets.

From a technical perspective, the Nasdaq currently looks stronger than the Dow, supported by powerful momentum in technology stocks.

The key question now is whether buyers can maintain control near recent highs.

As long as major support levels remain intact, the broader bias remains:

📊 Dow Jones: Bullish
🚀 Nasdaq: Strongly Bullish

However, upcoming inflation data and Federal Reserve expectations remain important catalysts that could increase volatility.

The trend remains your friend until market structure tells you otherwise.

Our forecast was long for on August 3d after breaking 52800 resistance levels on the daily chart.

US, Iran and Oman close in on an interim Hormuz deal

A potential breakthrough may be emerging around one of the world’s most strategically important waterways.

For global markets, the implications could be significant.

However, progress should not be confused with certainty.

The real test will not be the announcement itself. It will be whether the agreement can keep ships moving safely, withstand political pressure and become the foundation for a broader and more durable settlement.

For oil markets, diplomacy may provide immediate relief but lasting stability will depend on implementation, trust and enforcement.

My July 28 forecast on was bearish on after it broke below the 80.00 support level on the daily chart.

Why the U.S. stepped in to support Japan’s yen

The ¥ sharp decline was becoming more than a Japanese problem.

A weaker currency raises Japan’s import costs, adds inflation pressure and risks destabilising global markets. It can also force Tokyo to sell U.S. Treasury holdings to defend the yen, potentially pushing American borrowing costs higher.

There was another concern: the yen carry trade. A sudden reversal could trigger widespread selling across stocks, bonds and currencies.

The intervention sent a clear message: Washington was not just protecting Japan, it was trying to prevent currency instability from spreading through the global financial system.

But intervention only buys time. A lasting yen recovery will depend on interest-rate differences between Japan and the U.S.
