Major currencies traded in narrow ranges ahead of five central bank decisions, while falling US Treasury yields and easing oil prices took some pressure off the US dollar.
The Fed, ECB and Bank of Japan are expected to hold rates steady, while markets are pricing potential hikes from the Bank of Canada and Reserve Bank of New Zealand; Bitcoin fell 0.6% to $79,925.84 and Ether dropped 1.1% to $2,317.33.
Forward guidance and upcoming US inflation and consumer data could trigger currency volatility and shift expectations for interest rates, while Bitcoin and Ether may remain sensitive to broader risk sentiment.
Japanese rubber futures remained rangebound as weather-related supply disruptions in key producing regions offset pressure from falling oil prices.
Shanghai January rubber futures rose 0.99% to 19,810 yuan per metric ton, while Thailand's southern rubber-producing areas faced heavy rain and potential flooding through October 28.
Persistent supply constraints and weather disruptions could support rubber prices, although lower oil prices and gradually recovering output in northern Thailand may limit further gains.
Gold and silver edged higher on October 26 after sharp weekly losses, but both metals remain under pressure ahead of the US Federal Reserve's October 27–28 policy decision. COMEX gold rose 0.04% to $4,009.50 per ounce and silver gained 0.37% to $54.150, following weekly declines of 4.14% and nearly 6%, respectively. A hawkish Fed stance could extend bullion's losses through higher bond yields and a stronger dollar, while a less hawkish signal may support a recovery.
Saudi Arabia plans to begin storing crude oil at Singapore's Jurong Rock Caverns in the second half of 2027, aiming to strengthen supply-chain resilience and Singapore's energy security. Saudi Aramco is expected to sign a memorandum of understanding with Singapore's Energy Market Authority and JTC Corp, with negotiations targeted for completion within a few months. The arrangement could improve regional resilience to oil supply disruptions, although the final agreement remains under negotiation.
Retail investors have nearly doubled their Bitcoin deposits to Binance since April, reaching a six-month high as whale deposits continue to decline. CryptoQuant data shows retail deposits at 2.8 times whale deposits, with retail flows rising to $10.75 billion while whale deposits fell 36% to $3.8 billion since late August. If whale deposits remain subdued as Bitcoin rebounds, retail investors could become the main source of selling pressure on Binance, while renewed whale activity could intensify downside risks.
Palm oil futures could test support at 4,799 ringgit per metric ton, with a break below potentially opening the way to further losses. Technical analysis identifies downside targets at 4,736–4,773 ringgit, while resistance remains near 4,834–4,836 ringgit. A sustained break above resistance could invalidate the bearish correction scenario and open the way toward 4,918–4,974 ringgit.
Soybeans fell 1% to a two-month low as a record US harvest increased supply pressure and weaker crude oil prices weighed on the market. The most-active CBOT soybean contract hit $12.44 per bushel, despite strong export demand supported by Chinese purchases and weekly US soybean export sales of 2.8 million metric tons. Continued harvest pressure and softer oil prices could keep soybeans under pressure, although robust export demand may provide some support.
Asian stocks opened mixed as renewed AI-linked selling weighed on regional equities, with MSCI's Asia Pacific index slipping 0.2% as investors assessed earnings and upcoming central bank meetings.
The regional benchmark has fallen more than 6% this month, while roughly 550 MSCI Asia Pacific companies are set to report earnings; the Federal Reserve, Bank of Japan and euro zone's central bank are expected to hold rates.
Further weakness in AI-related stocks could intensify pressure on regional equities if upcoming earnings fail to justify elevated AI spending expectations.
Brent crude faces downside risk as repeated failures at $117.57 resistance suggest a temporary top, with support at $114.74 now in focus.
A break below support could expose the $112.99-$113.66 range, while stronger resistance near $117.80 may limit near-term gains despite a confirmed bullish flag targeting around $130.
Brent could face further short-term pressure if support breaks, although a move above $116.19 may reopen the path toward resistance.
WTI crude fell 2.00% intraday to $100.73 a barrel on October 26. Brent crude was also down 1.5%, placing the broader crude complex in focus.
WTI remains above the $100-per-barrel threshold despite the intraday decline. The move highlights continued volatility in oil, with attention on whether the pullback extends and how energy-sensitive equities respond.
Gold remains near a three-month low ahead of this week's Federal Reserve policy meeting, with spot prices down 0.2% to $3,987.45 per ounce after bullion suffered its biggest weekly decline since June, falling 4%. Elevated energy prices and persistent inflation concerns are reinforcing expectations for higher-for-longer interest rates, while traders price in an 80% chance of a December rate hike. The Fed's policy outlook and upcoming PCE inflation data could intensify pressure on gold if expectations for prolonged high interest rates strengthen.
Andreessen Horowitz is broadening its investment strategy by rebranding a16z Crypto as a16z Frontier, allowing the fund to pursue a wider range of emerging technologies while continuing crypto investments.
Chris Dixon announced the change on October 22, expanding the mandate beyond a crypto-only focus without specifying how future spending will be allocated across technologies.
The broader strategy could bring more AI and blockchain businesses into consideration, but its impact on crypto will depend on the companies funded and whether their products generate real demand for blockchain technology.
Asian shares started cautiously as Brent crude eased 1.0% to $115.48 after reaching a six-month high, with investors watching regional tensions and a packed week of central bank decisions and corporate earnings. Brent had surged 6.2% last week amid concerns over energy supplies, while markets increasingly anticipate further interest-rate hikes as elevated oil prices threaten to prolong inflationary pressures. Persistent energy-price risks could pressure equities and other risk assets if inflation concerns intensify and central banks adopt a more hawkish stance.
Oil prices pulled back from near six-month highs as traders weighed recent gains against continued supply risks from attacks on Saudi Arabia.
US crude futures fell 1.55% to $101.67 per barrel, while Brent dropped 1.34% to $115.16, despite both benchmarks posting weekly gains.
Further attacks on Saudi oil infrastructure could renew supply fears and support prices, while easing concerns may extend the pullback.
Standard Chartered-backed Anchorpoint is taking a cautious approach to launching its Hong Kong dollar-backed stablecoin for retail users, declining to confirm its previously indicated year-end 2026 timeline.
The venture launched its institutional stablecoin in August, while rival HSBC introduced its own HKD-backed RedCoin for 3.3 million PayMe app users.
Anchorpoint’s measured rollout could delay retail competition in Hong Kong’s stablecoin market while prioritizing long-term adoption and sustainable growth.
An ETH whale holding a 93,000 ETH long position added $5.67 million in USDC margin to two Hyperliquid accounts between 02:50 and 02:58, lowering reported liquidation prices to $2,181 and $2,177.
The deposit was described as the fourth margin top-up since October, following additions on October 7, October 9, October 18, and October 25. All four rounds reportedly came from the same wallet, 0x6b9e…0a24, totaling $28.82 million.
The wallet’s visible Hyperliquid balance was about 7,687 USDC. ETH was stated at $2,361, around 7.6% above the cited liquidation levels. The source notes that the on-chain balance may not represent the whale’s total capital held elsewhere.
Michael Saylor says Strategy’s core product is dividend-paying digital credit built from Bitcoin, while MSTR stock is a byproduct of that business model.
He said Strategy uses capital to buy back preferred stock to support its prices and restore them to par, helping the company continue issuing digital credit and seek a premium to net asset value.
The strategy could strengthen demand for Strategy’s credit products, but if the credit business fails, the company may function primarily as a Bitcoin holding company.
Reuters commodity technical levels outline key intraday support and resistance zones across oil, gold, industrial metals, and agricultural markets.
Brent crude faces resistance at $116.49, $117.57 and $118.31, while WTI crude has support at $100.86 and $100.30 and resistance at $103.21 and $104.11.
Price reactions around these technical levels could help shape near-term trading direction across commodities, although the levels alone do not confirm a breakout or reversal.
Bitcoin and gold have become the two worst-performing major asset classes of 2026, falling 7.3% and 7.5%, respectively, in a historic first in strategist Charlie Bilello's records.
Brent crude touched $116 a barrel amid escalating US-Iran tensions, while inflation concerns and expectations of higher Federal Reserve rates weighed on both non-yielding assets; Bitcoin trades near $80,472, roughly 35% below its October peak.
Further oil-driven inflation and tighter monetary policy could intensify pressure on Bitcoin and gold, although year-end rankings may still change.
Wheat prices fell to a 15-week low of 620.50 US cents per bushel, reaching their lowest level since July 2026.
Wheat has lost 9.61% over the past four weeks, despite remaining up 18.36% over the last 12 months.
Continued selling pressure could push wheat prices lower, although the longer-term gain suggests the broader annual trend remains positive.
Asian stocks slipped as investors braced for major AI-related earnings and central bank decisions that could deepen the technology sector's recent selloff. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index fell 0.2%, while Microsoft, Alphabet and Amazon are set to report earnings amid scrutiny of AI infrastructure spending and elevated inflation.
With rate decisions from the Federal Reserve, ECB and Bank of Japan also looming, markets face a critical test of technology valuations and interest-rate expectations.
Gold is holding just below $4,000 an ounce, with spot prices steady at $3,994.88 as renewed inflation concerns weigh on the outlook for the precious metal.
Rising oil prices and escalating Middle East tensions are raising energy supply disruption risks, while expectations of further interest-rate increases could pressure non-yielding gold.
Gold could face additional downside pressure if energy-driven inflation strengthens expectations for higher interest rates.
China is seeking greater control over iron ore pricing, but its heavy dependence on Australian miners is limiting Beijing's leverage as prices weaken amid pressure on China's steel sector.
China imported 954.97 million tons of iron ore in the first nine months of 2026, up 4.1%, while port inventories rose 14% year over year to 152.23 million tons; iron ore contracts fell 19% from their May peak to $90.60 on October 23.
Continued weakness in steel production and rising inventories could pressure iron ore prices further, while China's pricing disputes may intensify negotiations with major Australian suppliers.
Crude oil fell toward $102 per barrel despite escalating Middle East tensions and renewed fears of military action against Iran.
President Donald Trump is weighing a deal with Tehran or a return to military operations, while Middle Eastern crude exports have recovered to near prewar levels.
A renewed conflict escalation could disrupt regional oil supplies and intensify price volatility.
Brent crude fell below $116 per barrel despite escalating Middle East tensions and renewed fears of military action against Iran.
President Donald Trump is weighing a deal with Tehran or a return to military operations, while Middle Eastern crude exports have recovered to near prewar levels.
A renewed escalation could disrupt regional energy supplies and intensify volatility in Brent crude prices.
Oil prices fell nearly $1 in early Monday trading, retreating from highs not seen in almost six months.
U.S. crude futures dropped 0.96% to $102.28 per barrel, while Brent crude slipped 0.8% to $115.79 after both benchmarks gained nearly $3 on Friday.
Oil could remain volatile as markets weigh recent supply concerns following Houthi attacks in Saudi Arabia against the latest price pullback.
Circle Match introduces a new trade-off for institutional USDC desks, where potential fee benefits must be weighed against capital locked in restricted funding balances.
Circle’s documentation says mint-side funding becomes Match-only USDC that cannot be sent directly to a blockchain address, while unused restricted balances must be redeemed to dollars by wire.
The model could improve institutional liquidity matching, but prefunding requirements and delayed access to unrestricted funds may limit its operational appeal.
Grayscale is highlighting three distinct crypto-AI infrastructure models: training-data contributions through DATA, GPU-backed lending through USD.AI, and blockchain-rewarded computing through Pearl.
The research emphasizes that each model depends on real customer demand, sustainable economics, and clear token-holder rights, while USD.AI's lending model introduces collateral and borrower-default risks.
These distinctions could help investors identify durable crypto-AI businesses while exposing tokens whose valuations are not supported by underlying activity or enforceable claims.
ServiceNow stock has rebounded and formed a golden cross as concerns over a potential "SaaSpocalypse" faded ahead of the company’s earnings. The earnings report is the immediate catalyst, with investors watching whether results and guidance reinforce the recent recovery in sentiment toward the SaaS sector.
The source provides no specific share-price change, trading volume, earnings date, revenue figure, or earnings forecast. It identifies the golden cross and fading SaaSpocalypse fears as the main technical and narrative developments ahead of earnings.
Lido is highlighting how unstaked liquidity buffers can reduce the share of ETH generating staking rewards in Ethereum exchange-traded products, complicating headline yield comparisons.
Its October 23 analysis uses a hypothetical 100 ETH portfolio with a 20 ETH buffer, leaving 80 ETH earning staking rewards, and cites WisdomTree’s stETH-backed product as an example of liquid staking.
Differences in staking allocation, redemption flexibility and market liquidity could influence investor demand for Ethereum yield products and increase scrutiny of their underlying structures.
Lido has launched its 0x02 Community Staking Module, opening permissionless access to Ethereum validators with effective balances of up to 2,048 ETH but deliberately limiting initial capacity.
The rollout starts with a 0.01% share limit of Lido Core's total value locked and 32 top-up seats, with further expansion dependent on governance and protocol inflows.
The staged approach could gradually expand independent staking participation while raising questions about validator concentration and the distribution of network stake.
ETH is positioned between two leverage-heavy liquidation thresholds, according to Coinglass data cited on October 26.
If ETH falls below $2,239, cumulative long-liquidation intensity across major centralized exchanges could reach $580 million. If ETH rises above $2,464, cumulative short-liquidation intensity could reach $526 million.
The downside threshold carries the larger stated liquidation figure. The two levels identify areas where forced position closures could amplify price moves if spot ETH approaches or crosses either level.
U.S. stock futures are set to begin trading ahead of Wednesday’s Federal Reserve rate decision, with markets pricing in more than a 90% probability that interest rates will remain unchanged.
Investors also face September PCE inflation data, major earnings reports from Microsoft, Alphabet and Amazon, and continued Middle East tensions that have pushed Brent crude to $116.72 and WTI to $103.27.
Stocks could face heightened volatility as traders weigh the Fed’s rate outlook, inflation signals, corporate earnings and the risk of further energy supply disruptions.
Stacks co-founder Muneeb Ali warns Bitcoin has roughly two years to implement quantum-resistant signatures, followed by another two years for holders to migrate their coins before quantum computing risks intensify.
Ali says quantum-safe signatures could reduce Bitcoin's effective transaction capacity to roughly 10% of current levels, while NIST guidance calls for phasing out vulnerable signature schemes after 2030 and fully retiring them by 2035.
If the timeline holds, Bitcoin could face significant security and scalability challenges, accelerating the shift toward quantum-resistant addresses and off-chain transaction systems.
The Bank Policy Institute is pressing the OCC for clearer guidance on how its finalized stablecoin rule applies to rewards paid through third parties.
BPI criticized the removal of a proposed presumption covering certain issuer arrangements, arguing that the replacement approach lacks a transparent process for explaining decisions and publishing outcomes.
Uncertainty over reward structures could complicate stablecoin product development and intensify regulatory scrutiny of yield-like incentives.
Bitcoin faces a pivotal week as the Federal Reserve meeting, inflation data, and a $10.97 billion Bitcoin options expiry converge ahead of December rate decisions.
CME FedWatch puts the odds of a Fed hold at 90.6%, while a December rate hike carries 68% odds and inflation is expected at 3.7% year over year.
Bitcoin could face heightened volatility as inflation surprises, rate expectations, and the record-sized options expiry test bullish positioning.
Kraken listed SFI, also known as Spice, on October 23, expanding exchange access to Saffron's Ethereum-based governance token as the protocol focuses on trading-fee swaps tied to Uniswap liquidity positions.
Saffron's current vaults let liquidity providers receive an upfront premium in exchange for future trading fees, while SFI's exchange listing does not establish direct token-holder rights to those cash flows.
The listing could improve SFI's accessibility, but sustained demand may depend on market interest in Saffron's current product and its fee-generating economics.
The focus is the S&P 500 Index and major exchange-traded funds including VOO, SPY, and IVV, with the source identifying key catalysts to watch this week. The provided context does not specify the catalysts, price moves, fund flows, trading volumes, or other market metrics. Related assets listed include AMZNSTOCK, METASTOCK, GOOGLSTOCK, MSFTSTOCK, ORCLSTOCK, and CRWVSTOCK.
Cardano’s Leios scaling plan targets a staged increase in network throughput, with capacity gains dependent on governance decisions and testing rather than the hard fork alone.
Input Output’s roadmap targets an initial 3–5x increase over the current Praos throughput ceiling, followed by changes aiming for 10–15x, subject to operator preparation, live-network evidence and parameter decisions.
If testing validates the planned increases and governance approves the necessary changes, Leios could strengthen Cardano’s scalability, though rollout pace and real-world demand remain key uncertainties.
Jordi Visser dismissed Chamath Palihapitiya’s warning that Bitcoin could eventually be hacked and go to zero as a joke, arguing that the cryptocurrency’s security risks can still be addressed.
Visser said banks’ growing involvement in crypto gives them an incentive to strengthen Bitcoin’s security, while predicting that the AI stock sell-off could bottom within the next two weeks.
His defense of Bitcoin could ease extreme bearish concerns, although unresolved long-term security risks and continued market turmoil may limit confidence.
The Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank are expected to keep interest rates unchanged at meetings next week, though December hikes remain possible as energy-driven inflation persists. The decisions will keep attention on central-bank policy signals and inflation risks rather than any confirmed rate change.
An ECB executive board member says the digital euro could give Europe greater control over its payments infrastructure and reduce reliance on non-European providers.
The planned pilot next year will use real transactions by ECB and national central bank staff, while two-thirds of euro-area card transactions are governed by non-European companies, according to Piero Cipollone.
The project could strengthen Europe's payment autonomy, but formal issuance still depends on the completion of legislative negotiations in Brussels.
Ripple and Arf are targeting cross-border payment companies’ working-capital shortages with short-term financing powered by RLUSD, bridging the gap between payouts and incoming settlements.
Arf describes financing typically repaid within one to five days, while its reported $10 billion in annual settlement activity reflects its wider existing business, not a new RLUSD loan commitment or disclosed XRP purchase.
The initiative could expand RLUSD’s role in institutional payments, but its impact on XRP demand will depend on actual financing activity and any future use of XRPL lending features.
Latvia is targeting the first half of 2027 for proposed real-world asset tokenization rules, with commercial property potentially serving as the starting point.
Economics Minister Viktors Valainis said government bonds are also a priority, while the legal assessment has missed its October 1 deadline and remains ongoing.
The initiative could expand blockchain-based investment opportunities and attract international capital, but regulatory delays and anti-money-laundering requirements may slow implementation.
Grayscale is spotlighting three lesser-known AI crypto projects—DATA Network (DATA), USD.AI (CHIP) and Pearl (PEARL)—as AI-focused tokens deliver mixed market performance.
The projects target AI data licensing and training, GPU-backed financing, and monetizing computing power, while CHIP gained over 4% and DATA fell over 2% in the past 24 hours.
Grayscale's growing attention to these projects could boost visibility for AI infrastructure tokens, but mixed trading suggests performance may remain uneven.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $301.2 million in weekly net inflows, ending a two-week streak of outflows totaling approximately $910 million.
BlackRock’s IBIT attracted $565.7 million for the week, while spot Ether ETFs lost about $221 million and Bitcoin’s price remained near $80,490.
Continued ETF inflows could support BTC demand, but concentrated buying and renewed late-week redemptions may limit upside and leave Bitcoin vulnerable to further downside.
The Trump administration is temporarily easing restrictions on Russian diesel exports as soaring fuel prices intensify pressure on global energy markets. Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak says Moscow is ready to supply as much diesel as partners demand, following an initial agreement to supply more than 300,000 metric tons to the U.S., while WTI crude climbed 4.29% to $103.44 per barrel. Additional Russian diesel supplies could ease fuel-price pressures, but elevated crude prices and geopolitical uncertainty may continue driving energy-market volatility.
American Airlines CEO Robert Isom defended the carrier’s Starlink partnership, saying customers deserve the best available in-flight internet service. His comments addressed concerns that Starlink disruptions could affect Ukrainian military communications.
The source identifies the issue as part of consumer technology developments for Oct. 19-23. It provided no price movements, trading volumes, capital flows, financial terms, launch date, operational timeline, or further details on American Airlines’ Starlink deployment.
Libya has reopened the Brega refinery following a maintenance shutdown, restoring operations at one of the country's oldest refining facilities.
The refinery has a capacity of 10,000 barrels per day, while a restarted gas processing unit allows 60 million cubic feet of gas to enter the system instead of being flared; two methanol plants have also resumed operations.
The restart could modestly support Libyan energy supply, though recurring technical problems at the aging refinery remain a potential risk.
Investor Mike Alfred says he would bet up to $1 million that Bitcoin reaches $100,000 before falling below $60,000, with a near-term target of two to four months.
Alfred also forecasts Bitcoin could reach $200,000–$300,000 within three to five years, despite prevailing bearish sentiment and recent lows near $57,000–$58,000.
His bullish outlook could support renewed confidence in BTC, though bearish sentiment and potential liquidity pressures remain key risks.
Bitcoin’s market cycles may become less severe as ETFs and corporate treasuries expand its ownership base, but recent outflows and a potential break below key support levels are testing that thesis.
BloFin estimates Bitcoin’s latest bear-market decline at 53%, versus roughly 77%–85% in previous cycles, while US spot Bitcoin ETFs held approximately 1.3 million BTC and recorded $635.6 million in net outflows on October 22.
Bitcoin could benefit from future financial repression and renewed institutional demand, but sustained selling or a loss of the $80,000–$82,000 support zone could deepen downside risk, while altcoins may underperform even if BTC recovers.
Cardano has opened a public Dijkstra testnet, giving developers and stake pool operators an environment to prepare for the upcoming protocol upgrade.
The transition still depends on the 11.2 prerelease and a hard-fork initiation action, with wallets, exchanges, indexers, and applications able to test compatibility beforehand.
Successful testing could improve upgrade readiness and reduce implementation risks for Cardano, but mainnet activation timing and ADA's price impact remain uncertain.
UK consumers filed 10,092 complaints over crypto-related banking restrictions in just 90 days, highlighting a growing barrier to the country's ambition to become a global cryptocurrency hub.
Lloyds Banking Group received 2,297 complaints, Barclays 1,569 and NatWest Group 1,278, while industry research cited by Coinbase indicated 40% of attempted transfers to FCA-registered crypto exchanges were blocked or delayed.
Continued banking restrictions could slow UK crypto adoption, discourage investment and intensify pressure on financial institutions to clarify their policies.
Tether has secured support from 15 industry participants for its open software framework designed to help Bitcoin mining operators manage mixed hardware fleets through a common interface.
Participants include Bitdeer, Bitmain, Canaan, MicroBT, Foundry and Block's Proto, with commitments to build and maintain integrations rather than disclosed equipment purchases or new Bitcoin reserves.
The toolkit could reduce integration costs and improve mining operations, but its impact will depend on reliable real-world deployments and measurable efficiency gains.
Terra's v2.23.0 chain upgrade proposal is seeking governance approval for changes targeting improved security, stability and IBC infrastructure.
The proposal also seeks to lift restrictions on three wallets that were incorrectly restricted, following further investigation.
If approved, the upgrade could strengthen Terra's chain infrastructure and restore access for the three affected wallets.
NEAR Protocol’s CTO Anton Astafiev says NEAR is better prepared than Bitcoin for a potential cryptographic black swan because its original account design allows new signing schemes to be added more easily.
Astafiev warned that other blockchains could face years of work to transition signing schemes, while NEAR has already considered cryptographic disasters and quantum-computing risks.
NEAR’s flexible cryptographic design could strengthen its long-term security narrative, but continued price weakness and extremely bearish retail sentiment may pressure near-term performance.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel is exploring blockchain and cryptocurrencies as potential ways to circumvent international banking sanctions.
Netanyahu called blockchain an alternative to sanctions, but the Bank of Israel rejected the proposal, saying cryptocurrencies cannot be used to bypass sanctions.
The debate could intensify scrutiny of crypto’s role in national financial infrastructure and its potential use in sanctions-related strategies.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces growing criticism after suggesting cryptocurrency and blockchain technology could help Israel bypass potential international economic sanctions.
The Bank of Israel rejected crypto as a viable sanctions workaround, while more than 100 economists warned the proposal could increase unemployment, deter foreign investment and deepen economic isolation.
The controversy could intensify scrutiny of cryptocurrency's role in sanctions evasion while raising concerns about the economic consequences of broader restrictions on Israel.
Russia says it is ready to supply the US with any volume of diesel, signaling potential expansion of fuel shipments between the two countries.
Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said Russia could meet US demand from its export volumes, while three tankers carrying Russian diesel are reportedly heading to North America.
Expanded diesel supplies could ease fuel-market tightness, though the broader impact may depend on actual shipments and demand.
