Equities, Fed Hawkishness Affect Cryptos On Wednesday night, cryptocurrencies were pulled lower after U.S. stocks declined drastically. The Dow closed more than 1,000 points or 3.6% lower at 31,490.07 for the day. There are doubts whether the U.S. Federal Reserve can deliver a “soft landing” as it battles inflation, according to OANDA analyst Edward Moya.

Could Doge Rally By Double Digits? DOGE’s trading volume has been rising, which could be an indicator of interest returning to the meme coin, wrote Benzinga’s Melanie Schaffer. If the cryptocurrency trades lower on Thursday, its relative strength index or RSI could enter oversold territory. When that happened on May 12, the coin rallied 16% the following day.

DOGE’s press time RSI is hovering at 33.6, according to Trading View data.

DOGE On The Web Markus asked his following if they can hit up McLaren Formule One as the DOGE community has a McLaren car and “some kind of mutually beneficial arrangement would be much amuse to me.”
