Global markets recorded a broad rebound on February 6 after a sharp sell-off the previous day that pushed stocks, cryptocurrencies and commodities into deeply oversold territory. Bitcoin recovered to around $70,000, while US stocks, gold and silver also advanced, led by technical buying and easing of near-term macro concerns.
