Bitcoin price today: BTC edges toward $90,000 as ETF flows and U.S. jobs data come into focus

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 09:59 ET — Regular session Bitcoin rose about 2% on Friday to $89,555, extending a rebound into the first U.S. trading session of 2026 as buyers again tested the $90,000 threshold. The move comes after bitcoin ended 2025 down more than 6% following a sharp fourth-quarter pullback from an October record above $126,000, a slide that underlined the token’s sensitivity to wider risk appetite. Reuters That matters now because spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, have become a primary channel for institutional demand and can amplify moves when flows swing. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs saw

Gold price today rebounds near $4,370 as GLD ETF and gold stocks track bullion higher

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 09:54 ET — Regular session Spot gold was up about 1% at around $4,369 an ounce in New York morning trade on Friday, pricing data showed. JM Bullion The move keeps bullion on investors’ screens at the start of the year after a blockbuster 2025 run, when safe-haven demand and rate-cut bets helped lift precious metals broadly. It matters now because gold sits not far from recent record territory, and the market is trying to gauge whether the next leg of the rally can hold as liquidity returns after the holidays. Gold is a non-yielding

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 10:04 ET — Regular session iShares Silver Trust (SLV) rose $2.57, or 4.0%, to $66.99 in morning New York trading on Friday, the first U.S. session of 2026. Spot silver was up 3.4% earlier on Friday after hitting an all-time high of $83.62 on Monday, Reuters reported. “Bulls seem to be drawing strength from geopolitical risk and hopes of lower U.S. rates,” said Lukman Otunuga, senior research analyst at FXTM. Investors are pricing in at least two quarter-point Fed rate cuts this year, Reuters said, and the metal’s record 2025 gain was fueled by its

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:50 ET — Regular session The Dow Jones Industrial Average was little changed early on Friday, lagging gains in tech-heavy benchmarks on the first trading day of 2026. The SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (DIA), which tracks the 30-stock index, was down about 0.1%. Why it matters now: the year is starting with U.S. stocks near record territory, but investors are still digesting a late-December pullback and a crowded January calendar. Wall Street’s main indexes opened higher on Friday, with the Dow up 0.09% at the opening bell. Reuters The opening moves come as

Tesla stock ticks up after Q4 deliveries miss estimates as 2026 trading begins

Tesla stock ticks up after Q4 deliveries miss estimates as 2026 trading begins

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:52 ET — Regular session Tesla shares edged higher in early U.S. trading on Friday after the electric-vehicle maker reported fourth-quarter deliveries that fell short of Wall Street expectations, reviving questions about demand as the new year’s first regular session got underway. The deliveries update matters now because it is one of the first hard readouts on U.S. EV demand after a $7,500 federal tax credit ended in late September, pushing effective prices higher for many buyers. It also lands as investors continue to price Tesla more like a tech bet on self-driving and robotaxis

Transocean stock today: RIG edges higher before the open as oil slips — what to watch next

Transocean stock today: RIG edges higher before the open as oil slips — what to watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:24 ET — Premarket Transocean Ltd shares rose 0.4% to $4.13 in premarket trading on Friday, a muted move as U.S. markets prepared to open for the first session of 2026. The offshore driller is starting the year with investors still debating what oil prices mean for exploration budgets and long-cycle offshore projects. Those projects can take years to sanction and tend to need stable crude prices before operators commit capital. That matters now because offshore drillers sell time on rigs under multi-month or multi-year contracts, and pricing hinges on how tight the market is.
