📈 Close Just Shy of New Highs as Stocks Surge
Major indexes surged Thursday, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq each landing just a few points shy of record highs, as investors chewed on fresh economic data, easing tensions and the US & China trade deal. The Dow jumped 400 points, while tech heavyweights like Nvidia, Amazon, and Microsoft kept the rally alive, though Apple and Tesla dipped slightly.

With geopolitical fears cooling off and rate cut whispers getting louder, markets are riding high into the summer.

💵 US Dollar at 3 year lows
The dollar’s on the ropes again, sinking to its lowest point in over three years. Markets took another hit after Trump slammed Fed Chair Jerome Powell as “terrible” and teased a shortlist of replacements. Investors aren’t thrilled, especially with fresh worries about the Fed’s independence swirling. The greenback’s already down 10% this year, on track for its worst drop since 2003. With rate cut chatter and a key trade deadline looming, don’t expect a quick rebound.

🏘️ Former Zillow Execs Target $1.3T Market

🤔 A look at who could replace Powell as Fed chair
Trump's already eyeing Jerome Powell’s replacement, well ahead of schedule. He’s growing restless with Powell’s cautious take on interest rates and wants to name a successor early to send a clear message. The shortlist? Former Fed governor Kevin Warsh, NEC director Kevin Hassett, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, ex-World Bank head David Malpass, and current Fed governor Christopher Waller. Powell’s term doesn’t end until 2026, but Trump’s not waiting around.

➡️ Bitcoin ETFs Notch 13 Consecutive Days of Inflow
Bitcoin ETFs are on a serious hot streak, pulling in nearly $3 billion over the past 13 trading days, their longest inflow run since December. Leading the charge? BlackRock’s IBIT with $163.7 million on Thursday, followed by Fidelity’s FBTC and Bitwise’s BITB. This surge signals growing confidence from long-term institutional investors, even as BTC itself trades mostly sideways. ETF managers are going the OTC route to avoid shaking up prices, while short-term holders continue offloading.
