🇺🇸 US Pre-Market: Positive 📈

The most major companies in the green, particularly in the technology sector.

In the Information Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is up 3.51%, Apple (AAPL) is up 2.04%, and Microsoft (MSFT) is up 3.06%.

In the Communication Services sector, Alphabet (GOOGL) is up 4.03%.

In the Financials sector, JPMorgan Chase (JPM) is up 2.70%, while Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) is up 1.28%.

The broad-based gains among major technology and financial companies are fostering a risk-on sentiment and sustaining risk appetite.

Demand for the dollar as a safe-haven asset is limited in this environment, keeping the currency's short-term trend negative.

The crypto has pulled back, but has kept its bullish sentiment

The crypto market cap dropped by 1.65% over the past 24 hours to $2.41 trillion, with most actively traded coins also declining. NEAR (+1.1%), Tron (+0.3%), and Bitcoin Cash (−0.5%) are performing relatively better than the market. The day’s underperformers include Algorand (−11.4%), Aptos (−6.1%), and Polkadot (−6.1%).

Bitcoin made a fresh attempt to breach $73K on Wednesday but once again encountered a strengthening sell-off, retreating to $71K by the start of active European trading. BTC remains above the 50-day moving average, which has already turned upwards, reinforcing the short-term bullish sentiment. However, we will need to wait for the price to rise above $75K before we can speak of the market entering an active bullish phase.

⚠️ China — Consumer Price Index at 03:00 GMT

🕒 Exp: 1.2%

🎯 Fact.: 1.0% 📉

Bitcoin is steadily reaching new local highs

The crypto market capitalisation has risen by 1.19% over the past 24 hours to $2.45 trillion. The crypto market has weathered a short-term consolidation phase following a growth surge quite successfully, consolidating above its 50-day MA, which is one of the first signs of a reversal in the medium-term trend towards a bullish tone. Today’s top performers include Dash (+17.4%), Zcash (+16.6%) and Theta Network (+11%). The underperformers were VeChain (−1.2%), Hedera (−1%) and OFFICIAL TRUMP (−0.9%).

Bitcoin is cautiously testing new local highs, briefly rising above $73K on Thursday, although it is currently trading just below $72K. These fluctuations around local highs and the cautious renewal of them appear to mark a new phase following a prolonged period of hovering near the bottom and a cautious upward trend since late March. However, the market still needs to pass an important test by breaking out of the 61.8% retracement of the decline seen at the start of the year. It cannot be ruled out that the bears are simply giving the market more room to move below their key levels near $75K.
