Bitcoin price today: BTC slips under $90,000 as ETF outflows mount ahead of Fed

Bitcoin price today: BTC slips under $90,000 as ETF outflows mount ahead of Fed

NEW YORK, Jan 23, 2026, 06:29 EST — Premarket Bitcoin dipped under $90,000 on Friday, dropping 0.8% to $89,140 in early New York trading, unable to sustain a brief rally from overnight. Money continues to drain from U.S.-listed spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds—those that hold bitcoin and trade like stocks. According to Farside Investors data, net outflows hit roughly $708.7 million on Wednesday, followed by $32.2 million on Thursday. (Farside) This is significant since ETF flows offer a quick route for large investors to adjust their exposure, and prices can jump sharply on thin liquidity outside U.S. trading hours. The selling

Natural gas pulls back after a brutal rally — here’s what traders watch next

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 06:33 EST — Premarket U.S. natural gas futures slipped in early Friday trade after rallying sharply over the past three days. The February contract fell 6.1% to $4.737 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) as of 2:41 a.m. EST, down from Thursday’s close at $5.045. (MarketWatch) The pullback still leaves gas sharply higher for the week, with timing proving crucial. Traders juggle two factors: a rapidly intensifying cold snap that could disrupt both demand and supply, and uncertainty over how long the tight market will persist after the initial headlines fade.

Dow futures slip as Intel outlook hits mood, putting Dow Jones rally to the test

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 06:00 ET — Premarket U.S. stock index futures dipped on Friday, with Dow Jones futures shedding 110 points, or 0.2%.

Investors are now focused on January’s business-activity surveys and the University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment data due later this morning. (Investing.com) The early drop is notable since the market’s been reacting strongly to headlines. Next week steps up the challenge with the Federal Reserve’s first policy meeting of the year

Sensex slides 770 points, Nifty sinks below 25,100 as rupee hits record low — what to watch next week

Mumbai, January 23, 2026, 16:22 IST — Market closed Indian shares slipped almost 1% on Friday, with the Nifty 50 wrapping up at 25,048.65 and the Sensex at 81,537.70. The selling pressure that’s been dragging markets through January showed no signs of easing ahead of the weekend. (NSE India) The slide kept benchmarks on pace for a weekly drop amid a rapidly weakening rupee and ongoing foreign risk-off moves. The rupee touched 92 per dollar before settling at 91.94, down 0.34% on the day and off 1.18% for the week, Reuters reported. “The rupee stays under pressure regardless of broader

Sensex dives 800 points as rupee hits record low, foreign selling bites

Mumbai, Jan 23, 2026, 14:31 IST Indian shares gave up early gains on Friday. The Sensex tumbled roughly 800 points, while the Nifty 50 slid below 25,100 as selling intensified into the afternoon. The drop is significant because foreign institutional investors (FIIs)—overseas funds trading Indian stocks—have continued selling throughout January, despite companies posting quarterly results and some market valuations still running high. A softer rupee and renewed selling in some major stocks have ramped up the tension. Traders pointed to key Nifty chart levels that often spark “automatic” sell-offs from momentum-driven strategies. By 1:40 p.m. IST, the Sensex had dropped

Sydney, Jan 23, 2026, 17:47 AEDT — After-hours Macquarie Group shares slipped 0.22% to close at A$210.41 on Friday, giving back some of Thursday’s 2.44% gain. The stock drifted quietly as the weekend approached. (StockAnalysis) The steady finish is notable as rate expectations shift once more.

New York, January 22, 2026, 16:04 EST — After-hours Micron Technology shares climbed 1.6% to $395.54 in late Thursday trading following William Blair’s debut coverage with an Outperform rating on the U.S. memory-chip giant. Analyst Sebastien Naji highlighted that “advancements in AI compute are increasingly hindered by memory bottlenecks” in a firm note announcing the coverage launch. (William Blair) The timing is crucial as investors now see memory more as a bottleneck than a basic resource. High-bandwidth memory, or HBM—a faster DRAM variant placed alongside AI accelerator chips—has turned into a rare component in data-center expansions. Brokers are betting that
