Ether (ETH) is currently exhibiting a 'bear pennant' pattern on its daily chart, a technical formation often linked with downward momentum. According to Cointelegraph, this setup, combined with a decrease in total value locked (TVL), could indicate a continuation of ETH's correction towards $1,800. The cryptocurrency has experienced a 13% decline from its multi-month highs above $2,400, breaking a significant trend line that had supported its price since early February. A video posted by Chain Mind on X highlighted the potential for ETH/USD to drop further after falling below this ascending trend line. Chain Mind emphasized the importance of reclaiming the support level to avoid a decline to below $1,800. The bear pennant pattern, characterized by price consolidation between two converging lines following a sharp drop, suggests that a break below the lower trend line at $2,060 could lead to a further decline. This would set a target for ETH/USD at $1,800, representing a 14% decrease from its current price. Crypto analyst Alex Marzell noted that a drop below $2,050 would increase the likelihood of ETH moving towards the next support zone at $1,800. In addition to the bearish technical outlook, Ether faces several challenges, including recent departures from the Ethereum Foundation, weakening social media sentiment, and a significant decline in TVL across its DeFi protocols. Ethereum's TVL has decreased to $116 billion, a level last seen in April 2025, marking a 55% drop from its all-time high of $258 billion in August 2025. The decline in TVL is particularly pronounced in Ethereum's layer-2 (L2) networks, with Ether.fi experiencing a 32% drop over the past 30 days. According to CryptoRank, Arbitrum, zkSync, and Linea have seen the sharpest corrections, with declines of 63%, 64%, and 98%, respectively. This trend highlights the liquidity sensitivity to incentive programs and short-term reward mechanics, undermining the 'unified liquidity pool' effect envisioned by early L2 development models. The ongoing decrease in TVL indicates weakening on-chain demand, which adds downward pressure on ETH and raises the risk of further price declines in the near term.

Instead, Xiaomi plans to reposition its products by upgrading its product matrix and optimizing software to balance scale and profitability.

On May 26, MINISO held its 2026 Q1 earnings call. According to Jin10, the U.S. has become a strategic market for the company. Addressing concerns about the impact of U.S. tariffs and inflation, MINISO founder, chairman, and CEO Ye Guofu stated, "Both factors present opportunities for MINISO." Ye explained that the company's pricing in the U.S. ranges from $5 to $25, driven by consumer emotional attachment to IP (intellectual property) rather than price comparison. Consumers seeking specific IP-related products are unlikely to be deterred by minor price increases, differentiating MINISO from typical retail operations.
