ICP Rebounds Toward $5.50 After Early Morning Surge and Midday Volatility
Internet Computer
Starting July 13 at 17:00 UTC, ICP began a steady ascent, reaching its session high of $5.6781 early on July 14. This rally was underpinned by a significant increase in volume, topping 800,000 units during its most aggressive upward leg between 02:00 and 05:00 UTC. Bulls briefly tested resistance above $5.67, a level that had historically capped upside momentum.
However, intense selling pressure set in shortly after the peak, driving prices downward in a rapid reversal. During the hour ending at 16:05 UTC on July 14, the token dipped 1% to $5.45, decisively breaking through the $5.48 support threshold. A volume spike near 50,000 units during the 15:48-15:49 UTC interval further confirmed heightened bearish activity.
Despite the pullback, ICP has found near-term stability in a lower trading channel between $5.44 and $5.46.

Apple Pre-sale Tracker: iPhone 18 Pro Series Shows Weak Overseas Demand Signals, Duo Review Positive but Hardware Lags Behind
According to a survey by Jefferies, after the launch of the iPhone 18 Pro, delivery wait times in the four major markets—the US, UK, Germany, and Japan—have shortened by 5 to 11 days compared to last year, with no wait time in the US. Given stable production capacity, this is a clear sign of weak demand. Although the China and Hong Kong markets have performed better against the trend, there are still suspicions of speculative stockpiling. The new foldable Duo has been praised for its software experience, but its $2,000 price tag comes with a 254-gram body and dual-camera setup, leaving its hardware lagging significantly behind Android competitors. Jefferies maintains an "underperform" rating, with a target price implying a 21% downside from the current level.
