Bitcoin Falls on Iran War Uncertainty, U.S. Rate Rise Bets -- Market Talk

Dow Jones05-21 15:03

0703 GMT - Bitcoin edges lower as uncertainty over the Middle East conflict remains heightened and as traders bet on the Federal Reserve raising interest rates. President Trump said Wednesday that negotiations with Iran are in the "final stages" but warned the US will have to get "a little bit nasty" if no deal is reached. Iran President Masoud Pezeshkian said Iran remains open to a diplomatic solution but forcing the country to surrender through coercion is "nothing but an illusion." The Fed's latest meeting minutes on Wednesday showed most policymakers anticipate lifting rates if inflation stays elevated. Bitcoin falls 0.2% to $77,556, LSEG data show. (renae.dyer@wsj.com)
