Global Stock Indices Plunge Amid Safe-Haven Demand Surge

Stock markets worldwide saw significant declines this week as concerns about financial instability drove investors towards safer assets. Increased demand for safe havens following the revelation of non-performing loans at US banks pushed indices like the DAX and FTSE down, while the Nikkei 225 in Japan also experienced a drop. Analysts suggest that these shifts could impact the crypto market with Bitcoin and Ethereum potentially seeing increased interest as investors seek stability during turbulent economic times.
