The latest report from cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex reveals that the recent sharp pullback in the market was not a collapse, but a controlled consolidation phase. Bitcoin fell 21.46% from its all-time high in October last week, briefly dropping below $100,000 to $99,045, according to the report. However, this move signals a search for a new bottom rather than the start of a widespread liquidation.

While corporate borrowing is recovering, signs of a slowdown on the employment front are growing stronger. While official data is lacking, private sector indicators suggest the US labor market is weakening faster than expected. The ADP National Employment Report for October showed only 42,000 new jobs were created. Nearly all of the new jobs came from large corporations, while…
