The Chinese shopping festival "618" was supposed to be a grand celebration of consumerism, but it turned into a cold shower for tech giants. Smartphone sales in China fell 13% year‑over‑year. Why? Manufacturers raised prices as memory costs shot up due to the AI infrastructure boom. Consumers tightened their belts, and the traditional shopping frenzy lost its former sparkle.
Half a million zlotys, at least 50 fictitious collisions and 10 arrests. Investigators claim that a group operating since 2017 turned nonexistent traffic incidents into real payouts from liability and comprehensive insurance policies. The mechanism was simple: staged damage, proper documentation, and then money from the insurance company.
Although financial markets can be capricious, the current lethargy in currency markets is the calm before the storm. Investor attention shifts to Seville, where the French justice ministry decides the political future of Marine Le Pen. Will the Paris appellate court ruling shake the common currency? While speculators are silent, a sober analysis suggests the game is about entirely different stakes than the street assumes.
Why have investors turned away from gold? Key reasons for the declines in 2026. From the record high close to $5,600 per ounce reached in January 2026, the price of gold has fallen by more than 26% and is now about $4,140 per ounce. In recent days, prices have repeatedly dipped below the psychological $4,000 barrier, reaching their lowest levels since the end of 2025.

On the Federal Reserve's walls, a debate is growing about how to communicate monetary policy. Christopher Waller, a member of the Fed's Board of Governors, questioned Chairman Kevin Warsh's proposal to limit the use of "forward guidance".
More than 7.5 million PLN in damages, invoices worth 14 million PLN, and a project concerning submerged toxic weapons.

Sony has pulled a last black PR? Microsoft declared that if there's a console war, it's all in.

The corporation is drastically shrinking the Xbox empire, laying off thousands of employees and shedding iconic development studios. The new CEO announced a painful, hard reset.
There are theoretically reasons to support a rate cut tomorrow, but analysts do not expect such a move. US economic data slightly weakened the dollar. The optimism from macro data in Hungary is less than that generated by election results.
Officials of the Lesser Poland Customs and Tax Office discovered irregularities from 7 years ago. Despite the passage of time, the National Tax Administration managed to recover PLN 5 million in owed tax.
Health care protection is a statement that has been heard frequently in the public sphere recently, including through politicians' statements. Donald Tusk's government, which was supposed to improve the situation after three years, seems to have done very little. The pathologies related to the functioning of medical facilities appear to be increasing. Or perhaps there are just as many, but finally some of them are coming to light?
Software AI, memory and semiconductors: top stocks from Q2 show the trends Polish individual investors are betting on.
The Czech central bank found itself in an uncomfortable situation – just three weeks ago it raised rates, explaining it as a necessity to continue fighting inflation, and today data shows that price pressure is easing much faster than anyone expected.
Phones do not steal money. They steal peace, time for thinking, and the ability to verify facts. In the two cases we analyze today, one conversation was enough for scammers to extort a total of over 109,000 zlotys. The scenarios varied, but the mechanism was the same: fear, pressure, and the illusion of acting in the victim’s interest.

The record-breaking heatwaves in June changed the biggest banks' approach to remote work. The giants began adjusting work rules to extreme temperatures, reversing earlier requirements for returning to offices. As experts warn, climate change could force permanent transformations in work organization in the future.
It was supposed to be a lucky hit, but it turned out to be a blind one. A Polish company entered into a partnership with an Italian enterprise. It was not a life‑saving deal, as it turned out the counterpart was a fraudster who took the goods without paying for them. The consequences of this transaction for the Polish entrepreneur are far greater than just the loss of goods.
Today's macro data calendar is, like yesterday, quite sparse, so technical factors and geopolitics may indicate market movement directions.

The Monday session on the Warsaw exchange opened with a buying advantage, but later in the session partial reversal of gains was observed.

Hospitals in Poland have come under scrutiny due to what happened at the Warsaw South Hospital. It turns out there is a reason. Another scandal involving doctors was revealed by Wirtualna Polska. According to the portal, doctors in small county hospitals could earn over 26,000 PLN per hour. And that is not the only controversy associated with them.
Artificial intelligence and cloud computing require gigantic amounts of electricity, but the bill for this technological leap is being paid by ordinary people. When digital giants build powerful data centers that strain the grid, residents hear that they must turn off lights and roll up blinds. This is a stark example of the growing conflict between the relentless appetite of Big Tech and the everyday life of local communities.
Between the first and second half of 2026, XTB introduced several highly anticipated features. Primarily, the largest brokerage house in Poland made extended trading hours available for European stocks and ETFs.

Bitcoin rebounds after positive comments from Kevin Warsh on inflation. Standard Chartered will be the first global bank to offer institutional clients direct access to USDC.
The start of the second half of the year in financial markets seems to be decidedly less intense than we have been accustomed to in the last few months. The global energy crisis triggered by the war in the Middle East and market instability linked to the race for dominance in artificial intelligence have left their mark on investors.
Polish real estate market, instead of catching a breath, brutally verifies pessimistic forecasts of skeptics. While the industry wonders where the ceiling lies, the stock market giant Dom Development has just proven that gravity does not exist for leaders. The first half of 2026 brought historic records, and the developer brazenly distances itself from the competition. Is this just a temporary burst, or the beginning of a mega-trend?
American holidays tend to have little impact on currency markets. This was also the case this time. European business indices briefly tried to pull us out of the doldrums, but without much success. In the background, there was no progress in peace talks.
Slovaks went to the polls, but instead of a political earthquake they served up a festival of indifference. The referendum that was supposed to strip Prime Minister Robert Fico of a lifetime pension and restore abolished anti-corruption institutions turned out to be a spectacular flop. Although a crushing majority of voters wanted change, the most important thing was missing: turnout. Robert Fico can now open the champagne.
Could extending a hand for Polish citizens' money be a way to improve the health care situation? The proposal involves raising the health insurance contribution, which the vast majority of citizens disagree with. Will the threatened resignation of Health Minister Jolanta Sobierańska‑Grenda find another solution? In her case, the time to act is running out.
The Opera is often associated with discipline, precision, and responsibility. Yet the picture emerging from the NIK audit of the Kraków Opera resembles an institution where rules were applied selectively, and oversight only appeared when the matter was taken up by auditors. Overstated salaries, conflicts of interest, failure to respond to potential mobbing signals, errors in tenders, and alcohol sold without permits. The list of accusations leaves no room for comfortable half‑shadows.
Gold price rose at the start of the week to its highest level in two weeks. The market still values a significant probability of U.S. interest rate changes. Forecasts are complicated not only by signals coming straight from the Federal Reserve but also by the latest U.S. labor market data.
A catastrophic natural disaster, thousands of destroyed homes, and a long wait for help that was supposed to come from insurance policies. The September and October 2024 floods tested not only infrastructure but also the morality of the financial sector. Did the big insurance players throw obstacles in the way of the victims? The UOKiK has just laid its cards on the table, and the conclusions may surprise insurance skeptics.
Over eight tons of tobacco, a production line, and goods worth more than 4 million PLN. This was the balance sheet of the raid on an illegal factory operating in the Łódź Voivodeship. Officers from the National Revenue Administration and the Central Police Investigation Office entered the premises while production was underway. Three people were detained on the spot. The potential loss to the Treasury reached almost 10 million PLN.
The EUR/PLN exchange rate today at market opening is quoted at 4.2903, slightly above Friday's close. In the second half of the previous week the zloty against the euro fluctuated within a narrow band of 4.2822-4.2963, and today those limits are likely to remain in effect.
A portion of taxpayers may soon be forced to pay higher taxes. The focus is on entrepreneurs filing under flat-rate taxation, but it’s not limited to them. The finance ministry also plans to restrict access to certain tax reliefs, which will result in higher tax payments.
When the gaming industry and market players were pulling their hair out after the turbulent launch of CD Projekt's flagship in 2020, only a few could see this title as a long‑term champion.

Instead of fading into oblivion, the game keeps smashing new records! How does the market react?

The Friday session on the Warsaw market was played out in the context of a holiday on Wall Street, so even before the opening of trading, lower volatility, low activity, and generally a sleepy second half of the day were obvious, when European markets would move without an American guide.
Although summer has only just begun, Poles are already thinking about the winter season. They want to avoid high fuel prices that may appear as soon as the temperature outside starts to drop. They are “hunting” for cheap pellet.
Scandal in Hungary. According to the State Secretary at the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Gyorgy Laszlo Velkey, former minister Peter Szijjarto allegedly used public funds for private purposes. According to a Hungarian government representative, the former foreign minister spent over 2 billion forints—more than 24 million PLN—on private charters in a single year.
The artificial intelligence market is racing at a pace that leaves Wall Street investors dizzy and their hearts racing. Anthropic’s latest model, Claude Fable 5, has just proven that digital workers are no longer a future fantasy. A new study based on the prestigious Remote Labor Index (RLI) shows an unprecedented technological leap. Behind this spectacular innovation lies a brutal truth.
Today without major market releases
National services production slowed slightly but remains solid
US labor market data turned out weaker than expected
CEE currencies benefited from a weaker dollar, debt market also strengthened
The new Fed chief does not like forecasting and pointing markets toward a monetary path. He suggests paying even more attention to macro data. Investors listened to him yesterday and reacted angrily to essentially weaker readings from the U.S. labor market. The dollar weakened sharply, but the move was initiated even before the releases, so our focus should turn to the Japanese yen. On Friday we learned the final PMI indicators from the euro zone.
The border does not always look like a fence, uniform, and passport presented through a window. Sometimes it takes the form of a truck trailer, where instead of cargo, officers find 54 people. In Budzisk, at the Polish‑Lithuanian border, the inspection of a Romanian vehicle revealed an attempt to illegally enter Poland from Latvia. The case ends with the driver's arrest and criminal proceedings.
Recent days in the market have seen a strengthening of the dollar, a weaker zloty, and declines in precious metal prices. This is a reaction to the stance of the new Fed chair, who turned out to be surprisingly hawkish. Yesterday’s weaker data, however, eased those concerns.
The Sejm adopted amendments from the Senate to the so-called windfall tax law, which, upon coming into force, is intended to impose a tax burden on fuel companies that have achieved extraordinary profits. The final decision will rest with President Karol Nawrocki.
The unprecedented situation in the USD/JPY pair has increased the risk of intervention by Japanese authorities. The Bank of Japan does not rule out actions aimed at supporting the domestic currency. "If necessary, we will respond appropriately at any time," warned Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama.
While global markets tremble before further geopolitical shocks and AI algorithms on Wall Street relentlessly inflate tech company valuations, one country is playing a completely different game. Switzerland has just proven it can tame the beast that most central banks have been losing to for decades. When the world burns with inflationary fire, the Swiss serve everyone a lesson in stability with stoic calm.
Finding the right property today is no longer just about browsing hundreds of listings.
People planning to buy an apartment, build a house or invest in commercial space expect access to up‑to‑date offers, detailed location information and tools that help them make more informed decisions.

In recent days the dollar seemed teflon-like. No bad data seemed to hurt it. It turns out, however, that it is not strong enough to withstand a weaker reading from the labor market. As a result, we see a reversal from the dollar and capital flowing into riskier markets, including Poland.
Today Americans begin an extended weekend celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, so liquidity in markets will be low in the afternoon.

The blaze is pouring from the sky, and you’re just scrolling through online stores. Algorithms keep suggesting better and better promotions tailored for you, and when you reach the cart summary a tempting button appears: “Buy now, pay in 30 days.” Sounds like a tech paradise? The Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) is just spoiling the party, reminding you that behind the innovation lies an old, well‑known monster: debt.

June 2026 brought the first clear correction in the precious metals market after a multi‑year bull run. Gold fell below $4,000 per ounce, becoming the main benchmark for the market throughout the month. While the sharp discount sparked speculation about the end of the boom, the June declines mainly showed that short‑term valuations had become a lever of U.S. monetary policy, while the long‑term fundamentals of the market remain intact.
706 closed venues, 2,200 secured machines and assets worth over 40 million PLN. This is the balance sheet of one of the investigations into illegal gambling in Poland.

Rightmove data from the UK property market indicates a clear weakening of offer price dynamics in June. The largest June drop in 14 years raises questions about whether the current moment is favourable for buying a home.
This is not a “Czech film,” but a crime story that unfolded on the streets of “Royal City.” A pair of Czechs, a 32‑year‑old man and his 39‑year‑old partner, stole bicycles and took them to the Czech Republic. The suspects, involved in criminal activity, were caught by the police. They face up to five years in prison.
The EURPLN rate fell slightly below 4.29 on Friday morning, and USDPLN to 3.7430. On the base markets EURUSD rose to 1.1450.
The Steam Summer Sale has kicked off full steam, and with it, classic titles from years past have returned to favor. However, the true king of the hot weekend turned out to be the six‑year‑old Cyberpunk 2077. While the record of a million concurrent players at launch is now history, the game recorded its best performance in years. All thanks to a massive discount and a brilliant teaser that heated up the market and the hearts of Night City fans.
Riding without a ticket, or “gap” rides, is a burden for many Polish cities. This seemingly innocent act can lead to serious consequences later in life, not just financial ones. The debt of “gap” riders keeps growing, and local governments struggle to stop this wave… at least most of them. Some of them have the problem in their heads. What did they do?
Thursday U.S. labor market data clearly disappointed investors, increasing pressure on the dollar and expectations of further tightening by the Federal Reserve. Behind the scenes, geopolitical tensions still resonate, complicating forecasts for the U.S. currency.

Yesterday’s panel in Sintra did not bring a breakthrough in monetary policy, but it showed how central banks want to talk to the market in the coming months. The furthest the Fed’s chief went was to consistently cut back on elaborate forward guidance.
There should be less forecasting of decisions, less hand‑holding of investors, and more internal discussion within the FOMC. The problem is that limiting communication does not eliminate expectations. And less talking does not always mean less noise.
Imagine you go out for lunch, and when you return you check the market and see that the main stock indices have fallen 20% in one hour. Later it turns out the cause was a malfunction of algorithms that started selling shares en masse. Or the opposite situation. The markets surge wildly because a random technological breakthrough occurs that allows almost cost‑free, mass‑scale energy production.
Yesterday's panel in Sintra did not bring a breakthrough in monetary policy, but it showed how central banks want to talk to the market in the coming months. The farthest went the Fed chief, who consistently distances himself from extensive forward guidance.
There should be less forecasting of decisions, less leading investors by the hand, and more internal discussion within the FOMC. The problem is that limiting communication does not eliminate expectations. And less talking does not always mean less noise.
Franklin Templeton Western Asset: Recent victories of conservative candidates in Colombia and other countries, as well as upcoming key elections in Brazil, are once again drawing investor attention to the region and signaling a potential political and economic shift.
The effectiveness of bailiffs is increasing. Is this a cause for celebration? It is not the rapidly growing corporate sector or well‑paid IT programmers driving these statistics. The new, unexpected leader in debt collection has become Polish retirees.
After years of effort, Orlen has crossed the critical 95% threshold of Energa shares, opening the door to compulsory buy‑out and removing the Gdańsk conglomerate from the Warsaw exchange. While full consolidation seems a logical step, two highly political scenarios lie on the table. The company’s future now depends on government decisions, and the game involves billions of PLN in investments and the revival of the national capital market.
The United States is increasingly becoming a destination for returns rather than emigration for Poles, reports the Polish Economic Institute. Living costs across the ocean are increasingly waking people from the American dream, which until recently was the dominant motivation for travel to the USA.
Is it time to think about school supplies? Anyone who submits a 300-plus application by the end of August can receive the money by September 30. Those who postpone still have until the end of November, but risk that the support won't arrive when the family budget feels the September expenses most acutely. We are talking about a benefit that does not depend on income or the parents' employment status.
The spot gold price has once again crossed a significant barrier, reacting to the easing of concerns about further tightening of monetary policy by the Federal Reserve. An additional factor remains the persistent geopolitical tensions that strengthen demand for safe‑haven assets.
The dollar index is recording today its strongest correction in about two months, falling 0.5% to a weekly low while awaiting the most important US employment report. In the last quarter, the U.S. labor market consistently surprised to the upside, and the Fed Chair’s recent comments clearly point to inflation as a priority. Thus, the dollar correction may be purely technical and a stop before more serious currency swings.
During the night from Wednesday to Thursday, the USDJPY pair set a high at 162.84. In recent days, the yen has depreciated more than other majors. Speculators seemed to be checking with Japanese officials who have been clearly "threatening" intervention for several days.
Gamers are roaring, collectors are crying, and the stock market... pops champagne. Sony Interactive Entertainment officially announced a drastic step that will ultimately end the era of physical media in the console world. While the internet erupted in outrage, investors on the Tokyo stock exchange reacted euphorically. Is this the brutal end of an era, or just a cold business calculation that had to come?
Today's U.S. labor market report will unusually be released on Thursday, July 2, rather than Friday, because the U.S. holiday (Independence Day) has shifted the publication by one day.
Due to a holiday in the USA on Friday, U.S. labor market data for June will be released unusually on Thursday.

Copper is the new oil of the digital age, without which AI transformation, data centers, and powerful GPUs for gaming simply do not exist. Polish giant KGHM knows this well and has just launched an investment bomb in the Atacama desert. Together with South32, it will inject 725 million USD into the Chilean Sierra Gorda mine. This strategic move will not only shift the balance of power in the global commodity sector but will also impact the stock market.
Yesterday's preliminary reading of HICP inflation in the euro zone for June was in line with the logic of most previously published national readings – price dynamics fell to 2.8% year‑over‑year from 3.2% in May. The earlier consensus of about 3.0% year‑over‑year was beaten down.
Yesterday's session in the USA ended with mild declines in the major indices. Index changes in Asia were mixed, but concerns about overvalued tech stocks remain. Today's non-farm payroll data, as well as durable goods orders from the US, could strengthen bonds in primary markets and weaken the dollar, which starts the session near 1.138.
The introduction of the National e-Invoice System was supposed to bring greater transparency to invoice transactions and provide significant convenience for businesses.

The mid‑session brought a significant shift in the narrative around AI infrastructure bottlenecks. Bloomberg reports on Meta Platforms’ plans to sell compute power externally via a cloud offering reminded investors that compute demand is not infinite. Investors paid less attention to the remarks of the newly elected Federal Reserve Chair at a forum in Portugal.
Wednesday passed under the sign of lower volatility on the Warsaw market. The WIG20 index moved within a narrow band of 3575 – 3595 points for most of the day. Only at the end of the session it broke out of consolidation and returned above the round level of 3600 points.
Another round of talks between the United States and Iran ended without a clear breakthrough, although both sides claim readiness to continue negotiations. Adam Fuchs, analyst and currency dealer for Walutomat.pl among others, says that the very fact of maintaining dialogue is today a positive signal for markets. What scenarios for the dollar, euro and pound does the expert outline?
Since July 1, 2026, the position of CEO of Currency One – the operator of the largest online currency exchange services in Poland: Walutomat and InternetowyKantor.pl has been taken over by Jacek Kinecki, one of the most experienced managers in the cashless payments and e‑commerce industry in the country.
Sweden, hailed as a model of digital utopia, is making a sudden shift back to traditional money.
