    Morning Bid: Bitcoin watch party rages on as PMIs loom

    India-listed shares of Adani Group firms slid and their dollar bonds remained under pressure for a second day following billionaire founder Gautam Adani's indictment for fraud by U.S. prosecutors. Monthly PMIs will be released around the world over the course of the day, helping investors to chart out how the various economies are doing and where global rates are headed, as well as how much further the dollar's recent uptrend may have to run. Adani's company denied the accusations in Thursday's indictment, which comes less than two years after U.S. short-seller Hindenburg Research accused the Adani group of improper use of tax havens and involvement in stock manipulation, which the conglomerate also denied.
