1. Dow set to add to Wednesday’s record despite Capitol turmoil
- U.S. stock futures rose Thursday, a day after the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at a record high despite the turmoil at the Capitol. Early Thursday, outgoing President Donald Trump said in a statement there “will be an orderly transition” of power, shortly after Congress confirmed President-elect Joe Biden’s win.
- Economists expect an increase in initial jobless claims, when the Labor Department reports its weekly numbers at 8:30 a.m. ET. With the seven-day average of new daily U.S. Covid infections spiking to a record high, first-time filings for unemployment benefits are seen rising by 28,000 to 815,000 for the week ended Jan. 2.
- Ahead of Friday’s government employment report, the ADP’s look at December jobs trends at U.S. companies showed a contraction in private-sector positions for the first time since the early days of the coronavirus. Throughout most of the pandemic, the ADP estimates have been below the final government count.
2. 10-year Treasury yield above 1%; bitcoin above $38,000
- The 10-year Treasury yield remained above 1% on Thursday morning after projected wins for Democrats in both Senate runoff elections in Georgia. Lightening up on bonds, pushing prices down and yields up, investors bought riskier assets like stocks and bitcoin.
- The world’s largest cryptocurrency smashed through the $38,000 mark to hit a record high on Thursday as it continued its massive rally. Bitcoin has been up about 29% in the first days of 2021 and is up 380% over the past 12 months.
3. Congress confirms Biden as next president
- Congress early Thursday confirmed the Electoral College vote for Biden, a day after Trump supporters breached the Capitol in a chaotic effort to avoid the formal recognition that the president lost the election. Shortly after the confirmation, White House spokesman Dan Scavino tweeted Trump’s statement, which promised “an orderly transition on January 20th,” the day of Biden’s inauguration, but also perpetuated the baseless claim that he actually won.
- Congress’ process of counting Electoral College votes was interrupted Wednesday afternoon when rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol building. A woman who was among the invaders was shot and killed by Capitol Police. Three other people died from medical emergencies.
4. U.S. trade group asks Pence to ‘seriously consider’ invoking 25th Amendment
- The National Association of Manufacturers, a trade organization representing 14,000 U.S. companies, called on Vice President Mike Pence to “seriously consider” invoking the 25th Amendment of the Constitution to remove Trump from office. Jay Timmons, CEO of the manufacturers group, is a former executive director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Two Democratic U.S. representatives worked on a letter to Pence requesting he invoke the amendment.
- Members of Trump’s Cabinet issued harsh rebukes of the violence that unfolded at the Capitol. The officials, however, stopped short of criticizing the president, who had urged his supporters to take action at a pro-Trump rally Wednesday morning.
- An administration official confirmed to CNBC’s Eamon Javers that National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien and Deputy National Security Advisor Matthew Pottinger are considering resigning over the insurrection. Stephanie Grisham, chief of staff for first lady Melania Trump, and Sarah Matthews, White House deputy press secretary, both resigned Wednesday.
- Mick Mulvaney, Trump’s former chief of staff, announced on CNBC on Thursday he is resigning as special envoy to Northern Ireland.
5. Democrats win the majority in the Senate
- During the Capitol siege, Democrat Jon Ossoff was projected as the winner of the second of two Senate runoff elections Tuesday in Georgia. The defeat of Republican David Perdue, whose Senate term expired Sunday, coupled with Democrat Raphael Warnock’s projected victory over Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler, splits the 100 Senate right down the middle. However, Democrats take over the majority as Vice President-elect Kamala Harris would be the tie-breaking vote. After Biden’s inauguration, Democrats will control the Senate, House and the White House.

They offer this special promotion to new players who register via a special landing page (click on the link below). Plus, get a 100% match bonus and 200 free spins on popular slot machines. Good luck! >> Grab Free Bets Here << ZigZagSport OverviewwModern yet minimalistic, ZigZagSport certainly has a style that will appeal to many, especially those who love their bookmakers with a classic look. But when we look deeper, will we find a site that is just as timeless?It’s tough to know what to think about ZigZagSport at first. Your initial impression will either be of relief at seeing a site that isn’t overflowing with gimmicks, or concern that the space found on the homepage is indicative of a lack of content. A closer inspection suggests that this is unlikely to be the case, with plenty of promising options clearly present. This includes their 100% Bonus on Sport offer, alongside the site’s availability in multiple languages such as Danish, Polish, Swedish, Russian, Chinese, Turkish, Romanian and English. These are all clear indications that there’s far more beneath the site’s classically designed surface. But there’s still plenty more to uncover so let’s zig zag through the ups and downs of this betting site to see if it can rise above the competition. >> Grab Free Bets Here << BONUS, BETS AND PROMOTIONSWhile we appreciate that ZigZagSport feels confident enough in its product to not have their promotions plastered all over the betting sheets, we do have to point out, that at the time of writing, they do only have three available to customers.Of course, how much a huge promotions list matters to you down to personal preference and we would much rather have three excellent promotions than 10 bad ones. With that being said, more could not hurt. But we are optimistic in this regard because ZigZagSport is still a new betting site and the promotional page is one area which is more likely to change than anything else. With that in mind, we’ll be taking a look at what is available bonus wise at the time of writing. Do keep in mind that terms and conditions are subject to change at the discretion of the site, but we will do everything we can here to provide you with as comprehensive a look at what to expect as possible. First off, we have that that 100% Welcome Bonus on Sport. You’ll need to deposit a minimum of €10 to a maximum of €50 to receive a bonus matching that amount. This is only available for those who are depositing for the first time and can only be redeemed within the first 48 hours from when the deposit is made. The wagering requirement here is 8x, which is very competitive. The bonus remains on the account for 14 days, with minimum odds of 1.90 on single bets. Express bets also qualify with a minimum of two events with minimum odds of 1.50 for each to qualify. One important, and rather unusual note, here is that you have to contact customer service to receive the bonus. The next sports-based promotion is Express Race. It’s a promotion aimed at users betting on what they call “express bets” but are generally known as accumulator bets. This is where you bet on several unrelated events to gain larger odds and potential winnings. This promotion further boosts your odds by up to 25% based on how many bets you have made. For instance, 3-5 bets will net you a 10% boost, while over 15 bets will get you the full percentage. You will need a minimum of three bets to qualify, with each requiring a minimum of 1.50 odds. This is an excellent promotion which is both creative and provides real value. Do note though that the promotion is only available on weekends. Although some people will no doubt want more, we are impressed by the promotions that ZigZagSport have, and it does show that quality is more important than quantity. >> Grab Free Bets Here << BETTING MARKETSWe mentioned before that one of our key concerns was that ZigZagSport’s minimalist design might be one which is there to help facilitate a lack of content, even though first impressions were good. Happily, that appears to not be the case.There’s a fine selection of sports to bet on here, including tennis, football, ice hockey, basketball, volleyball and much, much more. Just as important is that in the coverage of these sports, they don’t just stick to the major leagues. This means that there’s plenty of options within those sports categories. Using football as one example, they cover the Champions League, Europa League, Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, Primera Division, Ligue 1 and the Euro league, to give you just a few options. Not only that but there’s just as much choice when it comes to bet types. For instance, in the Champions League, they have over 900 options for bets on a single event. How do they reach those kinds of numbers? By including markets like Race to Two Goals, Both Teams to Score, Total Goals, Goal from 1 to 35 minutes, Asian Handicap Bets, Winning Margins and much more. The amount of choice here is truly staggering and when you combine that with e-sports and specials selections, you have a very well-rounded set of options. In addition to the sportsbook, the site also is a bit of a jack-of-all-trades, with slots, casual games and even a live casino. However, there is one area in which ZigZagSport is unfortunately lacking and that’s virtual sports. How much that matters to you depends on your personal tastes, as virtuals aren’t for everyone. But having them included can only increase their demographic and appeal. >> Grab Free Bets Here << MOBILE APPUnfortunately, there is no mobile app at the time of writing, which is something we honestly expected from a website this early on in the market. While these things are preferable, we are more forgiving when a smaller site doesn’t have something like an app because the reasons are usually practical rather than due to a lack of effort.That is especially the case when there’s a dedicated mobile version of the site via your browser which works as well as this one does – with nothing, as far as we can, being lost in the switch to the smaller screen. The kind of minimalist design which ZigZagSport favours lends itself to an intuitive, easy to use mobile experience. Of course, having an app would be preferable. Whether or not that is something in line for the future remains unknown, because as polite as customer service was, they were unable to give us any kind of timeline in this regard. LIVE STREAMINGMuch of what we said in the previous section also applies here. Generally speaking, it would be quite unusual for a site at this early stage to have extensive live streaming, especially when it comes to bigger tournaments. This is because there is often issues with licensing, which means that often, only the most successful and established brands are capable of providing such a service.However, ZigZagSport clearly does the best it can it this regard, providing constant updates and even graphics so you can get an idea of the action that is unfolding as you place your live bets. The amount of effort that has gone into this element of the site is obvious and is also complimented by the excellent website design. This allows them to provide such fast-paced information in a setting which makes it easy to digest and doesn’t feel overwhelming. >> Grab Free Bets Here << PAYMENT AND WITHDRAWAL METHODSThere’s a wide variety of banking options for customers at ZigZagSport, providing the site with a truly international appeal. These include ecoPayz, WebMoney, Visa, Mastercard, PaySafeCard, Neteller, SoFort, SafetyPay, Euteller, MBMULTIBANCO, TrustPay, Skrill, Neosurf and Poli. Several currencies are also accepted including EU, PLN, RUB & SEK, which should also give you a clear idea of the target markets here.While the selection is good, more information should be included in the FAQ regarding things like fees and transaction times. The site has a good reputation in this regard though, so we will view this as a rare structural oversight. CUSTOMER SUPPORTOne area in which ZigZagSport deserves massive praise is in its customer service. We’ve reviewed countless sites and we would put the customer service team here amongst the absolute best we have come across. For example, when we asked them to explain what an Express Bet was, their response managed to be both detailed and thoughtfully put so we could easily understand the concept while not being bombarded by technical detail.Fast, friendly and informative, we really couldn’t have asked for more. Not only that but the team are available 24/7 via e-mail, live chat or phone. Top marks all around for our interactions with the staff at ZigZagSport. Unfortunately, they are slightly let down by their FAQ section, which could be more detailed in certain areas than it is – particularly in banking which is an issue we mentioned in our previous section. One last flaw is that the live chat is only available in English and Russian and can’t make the site translations for variety. We understand that having such diversity on the customer service team is a tall order, but considering how impressive ZigZagSport have been elsewhere, we hoped they would pull another one out of the bag here. >> Grab Free Bets Here << RELIABILITY AND SECURITYIn terms of reliability, with this being a relatively new site and a lack of feedback we could find in our research means we don’t think we can say anything too conclusive about the general consensus from customers. However, the signs are all looking good.What we can find is positive and perhaps more important than that is a lack of negative feedback. This is because people – especially when it comes to betting sites – are far quicker to criticise than compliment. When you combine that with our overwhelmingly positive experience with the site, we would say that – while reputation comes with time – ZigZagSport is well on its way in the regard. We can’t speak for anyone else but we had no issues during our time with ZigZagSport in terms of reliability or security. Everything from banking to customer service was all world-class and if this can be considered a typical experience with the site, then we think we will see that positive reputation become more and more well known as the years roll by. Moving onto the more practical side of things, ZigZagSport is licensed by Curacao and has an extensive privacy policy ensuring that your data is handled responsibly. They are also RNG certified, so their games are proven fair by an independent body. Finally, they are clearly committed to responsible gaming, providing advice and sources to help those who may need assistance. The only improvement we’d suggest is to make these options available at the deposit stage. CASINO WELCOME BONUSWe were impressed by the welcome bonus for the sportsbook, and there’s more of the same on the casino side of things. This is a 100% welcome bonus up to €200 but does come with a wagering requirement of 40x. The minimum deposit is €10, which is also the maximum stakes for active bonus wagering per game. Additionally, bets on roulette, card games, baccarat and craps do not count towards the bonus.The wagering requirement is a jump from what we saw on the sportsbook but that is always the case when comparing casino to sportsbook promotions. All in all, this is a very competitive offer considering what else is out there, if not as impressive as the sportsbook promotions. >> Grab Free Bets Here << ZIGZAGSPORT SUMMARYThere are areas which could be improved at ZigZagSport. However, these are generally either oversights which, although annoying – like a need for a more detailed FAQ section – shouldn’t ruin anyone’s gaming experience. Or they are in an area which will only affect a certain part of their potential user base, like the lack of virtual sports. Of course, if the latter is very important to you, then you should look elsewhere. But for most other people, we think that ZigZagSport has more than enough to justify them as your pick as your preferred bookmaker.This is simply a case where a site does so many things well that the few areas which could be improved pale in comparison. When you combine this with – what for many people will be – the very compelling classic design, then you might not have a perfect site, but you could have the perfect site for you. If you’re looking for a straightforward but in-depth gaming experience, and aren’t interested in too many bells and whistles, then ZigZagSport makes for an excellent choice. |

1. Dow set to add to Wednesday’s record despite Capitol turmoil
- U.S. stock futures rose Thursday, a day after the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at a record high despite the turmoil at the Capitol. Early Thursday, outgoing President Donald Trump said in a statement there “will be an orderly transition” of power, shortly after Congress confirmed President-elect Joe Biden’s win.
- Economists expect an increase in initial jobless claims, when the Labor Department reports its weekly numbers at 8:30 a.m. ET. With the seven-day average of new daily U.S. Covid infections spiking to a record high, first-time filings for unemployment benefits are seen rising by 28,000 to 815,000 for the week ended Jan. 2.
- Ahead of Friday’s government employment report, the ADP’s look at December jobs trends at U.S. companies showed a contraction in private-sector positions for the first time since the early days of the coronavirus. Throughout most of the pandemic, the ADP estimates have been below the final government count.
2. 10-year Treasury yield above 1%; bitcoin above $38,000
- The 10-year Treasury yield remained above 1% on Thursday morning after projected wins for Democrats in both Senate runoff elections in Georgia. Lightening up on bonds, pushing prices down and yields up, investors bought riskier assets like stocks and bitcoin.
- The world’s largest cryptocurrency smashed through the $38,000 mark to hit a record high on Thursday as it continued its massive rally. Bitcoin has been up about 29% in the first days of 2021 and is up 380% over the past 12 months.
3. Congress confirms Biden as next president
- Congress early Thursday confirmed the Electoral College vote for Biden, a day after Trump supporters breached the Capitol in a chaotic effort to avoid the formal recognition that the president lost the election. Shortly after the confirmation, White House spokesman Dan Scavino tweeted Trump’s statement, which promised “an orderly transition on January 20th,” the day of Biden’s inauguration, but also perpetuated the baseless claim that he actually won.
- Congress’ process of counting Electoral College votes was interrupted Wednesday afternoon when rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol building. A woman who was among the invaders was shot and killed by Capitol Police. Three other people died from medical emergencies.
4. U.S. trade group asks Pence to ‘seriously consider’ invoking 25th Amendment
- The National Association of Manufacturers, a trade organization representing 14,000 U.S. companies, called on Vice President Mike Pence to “seriously consider” invoking the 25th Amendment of the Constitution to remove Trump from office. Jay Timmons, CEO of the manufacturers group, is a former executive director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Two Democratic U.S. representatives worked on a letter to Pence requesting he invoke the amendment.
- Members of Trump’s Cabinet issued harsh rebukes of the violence that unfolded at the Capitol. The officials, however, stopped short of criticizing the president, who had urged his supporters to take action at a pro-Trump rally Wednesday morning.
- An administration official confirmed to CNBC’s Eamon Javers that National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien and Deputy National Security Advisor Matthew Pottinger are considering resigning over the insurrection. Stephanie Grisham, chief of staff for first lady Melania Trump, and Sarah Matthews, White House deputy press secretary, both resigned Wednesday.
- Mick Mulvaney, Trump’s former chief of staff, announced on CNBC on Thursday he is resigning as special envoy to Northern Ireland.
5. Democrats win the majority in the Senate
- During the Capitol siege, Democrat Jon Ossoff was projected as the winner of the second of two Senate runoff elections Tuesday in Georgia. The defeat of Republican David Perdue, whose Senate term expired Sunday, coupled with Democrat Raphael Warnock’s projected victory over Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler, splits the 100 Senate right down the middle. However, Democrats take over the majority as Vice President-elect Kamala Harris would be the tie-breaking vote. After Biden’s inauguration, Democrats will control the Senate, House and the White House.
