Analyst: Investors are now shifting to a risk-off mode, reducing overall risk exposure. The Federal Reserve meeting minutes and NVIDIA's financial report will impact the short-term direction.

BlockBeats News, November 18th, Cryptoquant analyst Axel posted on social media, stating that the current stock market volatility is rising in sync with the rate/credit market volatility, indicating that the market is shifting to risk-off mode. In this environment, funds and institutional investors are starting to significantly reduce their portfolio risk exposure.

The price of gold has fallen for four consecutive trading days, currently retreating to the $4,033 level. Investors are closely watching several delayed U.S. economic data releases scheduled for this week.

The key catalyst will be the Federal Reserve meeting minutes set to be released at 3 a.m. Thursday Beijing time, providing not only forward guidance on the interest rate path but also assisting the market in assessing the short-term trajectory of monetary policy.

Furthermore, the artificial intelligence sector is adding additional pressure to the market. Ahead of Nvidia's third-quarter earnings report after Wednesday's market close (5 a.m. Thursday Beijing time), investors are feeling nervous, as this company has always been a key market indicator in the entire AI field.

At WEEX, we recognize that the holiday season often brings a different trading experience for many users. As market participation slows, price behavior can feel less predictable and familiar trading rhythms may shift. For traders following AI news today or using AI trading tools, this period often highlights how market structure can influence model performance and short-term signals. Approaching these periods with clear expectations and a disciplined mindset can help traders better navigate seasonal market conditions.

AI Trading Risks in Crypto Markets: Who Takes Responsibility When It Fails?

AI trading is already core market infrastructure, but regulators still treat it as a tool — responsibility always stays with the humans and platforms behind it. The biggest risk in 2025 is not rogue algorithms, but mass-adopted AI strategies that move markets in sync and blur the line between tools and unlicensed advice. The next phase of AI trading is defined by accountability and transparency, not performance — compliance is now a survival requirement, not a constraint.
