Panther Protocol USD Price & Performance (ZKPUSD)

Asian markets showed modest gains on Wednesday following a subdued Wall Street session. Japan's Nikkei 225 led with a 0.7% increase, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose 0.3%. U.S. markets, meanwhile, displayed mixed results, with the S&P 500 up 0.2% and the Dow Jones nearly flat.1

Despite a 30% decline in Zip Co's share price this year, analysts highlight strong U.S. growth of 40% as a key driver for optimism. Concerns include rising bad debts and increased capital expenditures, but the company’s domestic profitability and market expansion offer a promising outlook.2

Oil prices edged higher early Wednesday, with U.S. crude rising to $69.31 per barrel and Brent crude reaching $72.69. The gains come as global markets show signs of resilience despite ongoing tariff concerns and mixed economic data from the U.S., including declining consumer confidence.1
