Fed - The Federal Reserve holds its interest rate meeting today, at which the U.S. central bank will likely announce a reduction in its bond-buying program. As a result, speculation about a possible interest rate hike next year is already in the air.

In advance, the markets are very positive and remain well oriented. According to CMC Markets analyst Jochen Stanzl, this change in monetary policy is no longer a major factor for the stock markets. The reason is that the quarterly figures are still very positive.

Lufthansa ( $LHA (-1.3%) ) - In the third quarter, Deutsche Lufthansa nearly doubled its revenue. Revenue rose 96 percent to 5.2 billion euros in the months of July through September. The adjusted loss before interest and taxes fell to 17 million, compared with 1.262 billion in the same period last year. This is an "important step" to get out of the crisis, said group CEO Carsten Spohr. The Group expects to be able to continue to increase its revenue over the full year 2021.

HelloFresh ( $HFG (+0.3%) ) - HelloFresh raised its revenue guidance again on the back of strong growth in the current fiscal year through October. Core revenues increased to €1.416 billion from €970 million in the same period last year. This is due to strong customer growth and a continued high order rate as well as high average order values. The adjusted operating margin before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization is expected to be between 8.25 and 10.25 percent.

G20 - The global minimum tax is due in 2023. Any company with annual sales of more than €750,000 will pay a 15 percent tax on its profits. Large digital companies must have at least €20 billion in revenue and a pre-tax profit margin of at least 10 percent to be covered by the global sales tax. Amazon ( $AMZ (+1.9%) ) would then be spared its 5% margin, while Apple ( $APC (+0.17%) ) would be asked to pay. Tax havens would also become less attractive, as the tax burden would not fall on the home countries, as is currently the case, but on the market countries, i.e. where most of the turnover is generated.

El Salvador - With the surplus from the El Salvador Bitcoin Trust, the country wants to build 20 new "Bitcoin schools." After another purchase of 420 BTC ( $BTC-EUR (-0.88%) ), the government currently holds 1,120 BTC in its Bitcoin Trust account. Already in mid-October, President Nayib Bukele announced the allocation of four million US dollars from the Bitcoin Trust for the construction of a new veterinary hospital.

Squid Game - The coin bearing the abbreviation SQUID, which alludes to the Netflix series Squid Game, shocked the crypto scene yesterday. The coin was launched last Thursday at a starting price of $0.01. Within 4 days, the price increased by an incredible 380,000.00% to $38 on Monday morning. After further growth, the price rose to $89 the same day. However, the journey was not to end there. Within 3 hours, one event followed another. The price of SQUID reached an incredible $2,861.80 and just 5 minutes later, the coin collapsed 99.99% to $0.0007926.

In addition, the website that was promoting the coin is no longer online. It is also known that many SQUID holders were unable to sell their positions after a while, so they could only sit on their hands. It was therefore a "rug-pull", i.e. the promoters of the project sold it and went underground with the profits. In addition, it is now clear that there is no connection with Netflix or other representatives of the series.

In the run-up, the markets present themselves in a very positive mood and continue to be on a strong course. According to analyst Jochen Stanzl of CMC Markets, this monetary policy change no longer represents a supporting burden for the stock markets. The reason for this is the consistently very positive quarterly figures.

Lufthansa ($LHA (-1.3%)) - In the third quarter, Deutsche Lufthansa almost doubled its revenue and returned to operating profit since the beginning of the crisis. Revenue rose 96 percent to 5.2 billion euros in the months from July to September. Adjusted loss before interest and taxes narrowed to 17 million from 1.262 billion in the same period last year.
