OPEC+ countries are sticking to their current production cap despite a recent rise in Brent crude prices from below $60 to around $70 per barrel.

Recent supply disruptions in Kazakhstan and geopolitical tensions involving Iran have helped push oil prices higher.

Bitcoin fell 6.5% to about $78,720 on Saturday, extending losses after hitting its lowest level since late November as the U.S. dollar strengthened. The decline followed the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed chair, sparking fears of tighter liquidity, which tends to weigh on cryptocurrencies. Ether dropped nearly 12%, and bitcoin has now lost about a third of its value since its October record high.

The Amsterdam AEX index briefly hit a record above 1,017 points last week but slipped back to around 1,000, ending the week up 0.2% and January more than 5% higher.
