Morning Hawks 🪶
Energy drink still working. Just ran the boards.
BTC ripped overnight and it’s sitting around $85k this morning. First weekly close above the 50-week moving average in 45 weeks. Shorts got squeezed pretty hard, north of $600 million wiped out.
XRP’s coming along for the ride. Around $1.48, up about 6.5%. Not as loud as Bitcoin, but it’s holding the move instead of fading it.
Stock futures are green. Nasdaq’s leading, up about 1.1%. S&P and Dow futures both up around 0.6%. AI names doing the heavy lifting again. Oil’s sliding for a fourth day and WTI’s back under $100, which is helping risk.
Gold’s taking a small breather around $4,360. Silver’s hanging near $66.60. Metals not fighting the tape this morning.
Big picture: risk is back on. Oil drop, yields easing, that BTC weekly close. Trump-Xi talks later this week are on the calendar too.
Still early. One strong Monday doesn’t mean the hard part is over.
