Japan’s stock market is plunging to start the week, fueling a global asset sell-off. The Bank of Japan’s decision to tighten monetary policy and an increasingly bleak economic outlook in the US have triggered a worldwide market reversal, sending Bitcoin and the crypto markets in a free fall. After touching $70,000 about a week ago, BTC has plummeted to $54,350 at time of publishing, with crypto traders collectively witnessing a whopping $768 million in liquidations in the last 12 hours, according to Coinglass. US stock futures are also down, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average futures dropping 383 points, or about 1%. S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq-100 futures are down 1.17% and 2.12%, respectively. A disappointing US jobs report has significantly increased expectations that the Fed will lower interest rates this year, with JPMorgan Chase reportedly forecasting a 50 basis point drop in September.
