Market Dance: Price Beats:

Dollar Index, Gold, S&P 500, Oil, U.S. 10-yr Yield, Bitcoin Overlay Chart by TradingView
Bitcoin got a thumbs up with that SEC crypto ETF move, opening doors for more squad investments. BTC/USD snatched back to $118K and kept those gains in check. 💪💰
Stock futures started pumped, but Asia was a mixed bag while Europe like DAX and CAC 40 hit over 1% up. 🎢 U.S. stocks flexed with Intel’s share rave, closing up 0.55% on the S&P 500.
Gold was basically mood swinging, dropping then bouncing hard during London hours, only to see a red finish down 0.37% in the day. About that drama. 😅
WTI crude oil ran circles around geopolitical gossip but ended on a dip with the dollar showin' dominance, and Trump hinting at price warfare for Russia n' oil.
Bond yields had a sad arrow down, only to catch a boost from the jobless claims and Philly Fed heat, with 10-year yields finishing 3.4 basis points up.
FX World Standoff: US Buck vs. All:

Overlay of USD vs. Majors Chart by TradingView
Most dollar pairs began all sus, except NZD/USD dipped hard on NZ’s GDP spill that was worse than thought. 😱
The Aussie was feelin' blue too cuz their job stats were meh, leanin' on RBA for maybe rate cuts too. 💁♂️ The Greenback kept on its uphill hustle 'til Londontown wanted to do some profit-takin'.
The BOE was chill with the rate hold, but peeps picked up on more peeps into easing vibes. Bailey said maybe more rate slides could happen, making the pound and buddy currencies fall out next to USD.
The Buck flew higher on banger jobless claims and Fed numbers, ditching economic spooks, movin' slow 'n steady as NYC went into cruise mode. 🚀
