Ethereum, the prized altcoin of the crypto industry, has recently gained nearly 7% in the daily time frame. This is the coin\u2019s ongoing efforts to strengthen its current support located at $1,500 as it lost the same value last week in the face of negative investor sentiment.\u00a0 Recent external events have shaken investor confidence, such as macroeconomic events that are currently spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt in the market. This February 16 is the release of several macroeconomic indicators that are expected to impact the broader financial market.\u00a0 Related Reading: CRV Daily Volume Peaks To Over $1 Billion In Past 24 Hours Vitalik Buterin Sells Some ETH\u00a0 In another development, Ethereum cofounder Vitalik Buterin recently sold 210 ETH in the market.

Recent macroeconomic data released on February 14th certainly had some effect on the coin\u2019s trajectory.\u00a0 However, this positive sentiment is negated by events that happened recently. Matt Weller, Global Head of Research at FOREX.com, recently shared his thoughts about the state of the global economy. He said that events from 2022 and the fact that the International Monetary Fund is hawkish about the future of the world economy still sets the mood for investors.\u00a0 The IMF recently warned about how shock-prone the global economy really is. With the fear of a global recession still lingering around, Ethereum \u2013 and the crypto market in general \u2013 might experience volatility because of this.\u00a0 Crypto total market cap at $1 trillion on the daily chart | Chart: TradingView.com Related Reading: CRV Daily Volume Peaks To Over $1 Billion In Past 24 Hours Ethereum At $1.5K Support\u00a0 At the time of writing, the coin is trading at $1,651 with support at $1.500.
