FED - Now it is finally official to what extent the FED will raise interest rates and at what pace that will happen. First, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell indicated that the FED's bond purchases will be reduced more than previously expected. Instead of a reduction of 15 billion, monthly purchases are to be cut by $30 billion starting in January 2022. On the interest rate hike, he announced the following, the Fed plans three interest rate hikes in 2022 starting in the spring and another three hikes in 2023. The markets reacted extremely positively to this, after an initially rather weak day, the S&P 500 was able to close with a plus of 1.6%.

Wirecard ($WDI) - Markus Braun will now also spend the second Christmas in a row in prison. Former Wirecard CEO Markus Braun must remain in pre-trial detention after the decision of the Munich Higher Regional Court even after 1.5 years. Markus Braun has once again failed in his appeal against imprisonment, so he will probably remain behind bars at least until the indictment.

Squid Game - The coin with the acronym SQUID, which alludes to the unprecedentedly successful Netflix series Squid Game, shocked the crypto scene yesterday. The coin 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 on the same day. However, the journey was not to end here. Within 3 hours, events rolled over. The price of SQUID grew to an incredible $2,861.80 and just 5 minutes later the coin crashed by 99.99% to $0.0007926.

Additionally, the website that promoted the coin is no longer online. It is now also known that many holders of SQUID were no longer able to sell their positions from a certain point, so they could only watch idly. It is therefore a so-called rug-pull, i.e. that the developers of the project have sold it and have gone underground with the profits. In addition, it is now also clear that there are no connections to Netflix or other representatives of the series.
