IMF warns of stablecoin risks for countries with fixed currency exchange ratesThe spread of dollar-pegged stablecoins can increase the vulnerability of countries with fixed exchange rates and accelerate currency crises. Economists at the IMF came to this conclusion in a new study.
The authors note that “stable coins” make it easier for the public and businesses to access digital dollar-denominated assets. In conditions of economic uncertainty, this allows funds to be withdrawn from the national currency faster, increasing pressure on central bank reserves and making it more difficult to maintain a fixed exchange rate.

HSBC: gold will resume its rally amid geopolitical risksHSBC lowered its forecasts for gold prices for 2026 and 2027 following a sharp correction, but the precious metal is ready to resume a rally amid structural fiscal and geopolitical risks.
The precious metal reached a record high of $5,450 per ounce on 30.01.2026, but since then it has pulled back significantly, falling to the 2026 low of $3,942 on 30.06.2026. Gold has been under pressure after the new Federal Reserve Chair, Kevin Warsh, signaled a course of tightening monetary policy: expectations of rate hikes and a stronger dollar are weighing on prices. This was preceded by a wave of declines linked to the conflict over Iran, which triggered higher oil prices, inflation, and bond yields.
