Shiba Inu awaits equities tailwind, sparking 35% rally

Shiba Inu price has been trading sideways since last week as investors find themselves puzzled as to the path forward. Much event risk lies on the horizon with a lot of rate decisions from the most prominent central banks this week and some pending uncertainties over Covid variants.
