Shares of Palantir (PLTR) rose nearly 4% in recent trading, helping the defense-technology company recover some of its recent losses amid investor concerns about competition from Anthropic. The stock received additional attention after President Donald Trump posted on social media on Friday that Palantir “has proven to have great war…
Bitcoin (BTC) began the trading session with renewed bullish momentum, briefly surging above the $76,000 resistance level that has capped price action for more than two months. The move, however, failed to hold, and BTC slipped back below $74,000 before stabilizing around $74,300. Despite the failed breakout, the cryptocurrency is still up 1.3% over the past 24 hours.
Ethereum (ETH) followed a similar pattern, pulling back from highs above $2,400. Still, it outperformed Bitcoin, posting a 2.5% daily gain, reflecting continued investor interest in altcoins amid broader market uncertainty.
Traditional markets moved higher while crypto remained more mixed. The Nasdaq rose 2% to close at its session high, and the S&P 500 climbed 1.2%, sitting just points away from an all-time record.

Lunde also noted that the 30-day average funding rate has remained negative for 46 consecutive days. He described this streak as comparable to high-stress periods such as the FTX collapse in late 2022 and China’s Bitcoin mining ban in mid-2021.
Historically, crowded bearish positioning environments have created strong entry opportunities, as forced short liquidations can trigger rapid upward price moves in Bitcoin.
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
