Stock Exchange

When a crypto company enters the S&P 500 and then joins TIME's list of the 100 most influential companies, it is no longer just recognition: it is a signal of a shift in era. By 2025, Coinbase is no longer just an exchange; it becomes a symbol of the normalization of Web3 within the circles of global economic power. Its rise marks a clear break between the utopian promises of the sector and its integration into traditional structures of influence.

Wall Street continues to set records, and crypto holds its breath. As the Nasdaq and S&P 500 reach historical highs, the prospect of monetary easing by the Fed revives bullish scenarios. In this climate of optimism, a question arises: is Bitcoin ready to cross a new symbolic threshold? With favorable macroeconomic signals and renewed institutional interest, the hypothesis of BTC exceeding $112,000 resurfaces, fueled by the dynamics of traditional markets.

"Driven by an unexpected easing in the Middle East and a resurgence of stock market optimism, the S&P 500 closed this Thursday at 6,141.02 points, nearing its all-time high. Increasing by 0.8%, the benchmark index marks a significant rebound since its low in April, despite ongoing uncertainties regarding trade tariffs and regional stability."

Despite a decline in profits, companies in the CAC 40 are increasingly attentive to their shareholders. In 2024, they maintain record payouts, contrary to traditional economic signals.

While shareholder profitability remains a priority, the gap between distributed profits and actual performance raises doubts about the sustainability of this model.

The conflict between Israel and Iran raises fears of a major escalation, yet U.S. indices are flirting with their all-time highs. Following U.S. bombings in Iran, this situation could change very quickly, casting doubt on a sudden market collapse.

The stock market has its moods, but sometimes, it is mostly its fears. And this Friday, fear prevailed over everything else. An Israeli strike against Iran was enough to cause an immediate shock on global markets, reminding everyone that indices are never completely disconnected from the sound of bombs. In New York, the Dow Jones dropped more than 600 points right at the opening. A brutal collapse that owes nothing to chance, but everything to geopolitics. In this unstable equation, volatility has become the norm again, and the stock market a sounding board for the real world.

Circle's IPO made history on Wall Street with the largest two-day gain since 1980. However, behind this spectacular performance lies a troubling paradox: the issuer of USDC literally forfeited 3 billion dollars to institutional investors. How can this colossal financial sacrifice be explained?

In an environment marked by uncertainty and geopolitical tensions, the Chinese stock market demonstrates remarkable resilience.

Gemini takes a strategic step with the filing of an IPO project with the SEC.

The sentiment for bitcoin is at its lowest since the beginning of 2023. However, several analysts are identifying encouraging signs of a possible change in momentum as the queen of cryptos shows remarkable resilience in the face of recent volatility in the US stock markets.

In a global market in complete chaos, Warren Buffett stands out as an exception. While the richest fortunes are recording massive losses, the American investor makes 23.4 billion dollars in just a few months.

At the head of Berkshire Hathaway, he once again demonstrates that discipline, foresight, and rigorous management can still dictate the rules, even in times of instability.

The possibility of new customs barriers raises tensions and threatens to reshape the dynamics of the global economic balance.
