๐จBREAKING: The Federal Reserve has decided to keep interest rates steady at 3.5%-3.75%, marking a pause after three consecutive quarter-point cuts. This decision reflects the Fedโs cautious approach, balancing economic growth and inflation concerns. The move was widely anticipated, with markets pricing in a 97% chance of no change.

Bitcoin is stabilizing near $89,200 after its January pullback, but the market has entered a more delicate phase. A rare bearish EMA crossover (21 week below 50 week) suggests an easy upside is behind us, pointing to consolidation or downside risk.

ESG Enters Its Strategic Phase
As 2026 approaches, the ESG conversation is shifting decisively. The โSโ and โGโ are under sharper scrutiny, while the โEโ is transitioning from a compliance burden to a core industrial and investment strategy. The great decarbonization shift is no longer about who reports the most, but who executes best in a capital-constrained, geopolitically complex world.

Extract from Weekly Market Review
The week ahead is poised with developing macroeconomic updates. Locally, the scheduled January 2026 FGN Bond auction outcome is a keen indicator of yield direction and investor demand. This is in addition to the expected inflows of over โฆ2.55 trillion in maturing OMO bills and coupon payments, driving reinvestment pressure. Potentially, prompting fresh OMO(s) auction.

In the week ending January 23, 2026, Nigeriaโs financial markets entered a defining inflection point, where fiscal consolidation, liquidity management, and structural reform converged to reshape price discovery across assets. The governmentโs transition to a unified budget framework by April 2026 has triggered a heightened funding cycle, evident in outsized sovereign bond auction offers, robust Central Bank of Nigeriaโs (CBN) Open Market Operation (OMO) and Nigeria Treasury Bill (NTB) long-tenor oversubscriptions, and a clear investor drive toward yield optimization across the curve. While elevated issuance tests demand depth, resilient bidding, selective duration extension, and anchored stop rates signal growing confidence in inflation moderation and policy stabilization.

Resolving the God Complex
By Sandra A. Aghaizu
For the past four weeks, we have explored the God complex...what it is, what causes it, its effects, and how to recognize its traits within ourselves by looking inward.
Today, we conclude the series by focusing on how the God complex can be managed and resolved on a personal level.
The good news is this: the God complex can be managed. Awareness is the first step; intention is the next.
Here are practical ways to begin the workโฆ

A Week of Extremes โ From Bullish Surge to Market Swoon (January 14โ21, 2026)
With the January volatility, BTC is in a distribution-to-consolidation phase. In the near term, BTC is expected to trade in a range with mild downside risk, likely oscillating between $85,000 and $98,000, as the market digests recent volatility. The latest dip below $90,000 flushed out leveraged positions.
However, a decisive move above the $100,000โ$103,000 resistance zone will require fresh liquidity rather than sentiment alone, amid ongoing profit-taking after an early Q1 rally, heightened sensitivity to global macro conditions, and ETF inflows that are slowing but not reversing.
By contrast, ETH is likely to underperform BTC in the near term, trading within a $2,900โ$3,600 range, as it remains supported by solid fundamentals such as staking, Layer-2 activity, and fee burn. Although it is weighed down by weaker speculative rotation and capital preference for BTC, with key support at $2,800โ$2,900 and resistance around $3,700โ$3,900.
BTC is the marketโs anchor; Ethereum is the marketโs accelerator, but the engine hasnโt fully revved yet.
The week will be remembered as a microcosm of cryptoโs dual personality: one moment powered by optimism and capital flows, the next rattled by macro uncertainty and risk-off behaviour. For investors, builders, and observers alike, the lesson is clear: understand the signals, respect the cycles, and never confuse short-term noise for long-term direction.
