NEW YORK, Jan 20, 2026, 09:06 (EST) Silver edged just under a new high on Tuesday, after hitting $95.488 an ounce, as investors flocked to precious metals amid President Donald Trump’s latest tariff threat on Europe.

Oracle stock price edges up before the bell as multicloud report lands

New York, January 20, 2026, 07:42 (ET) — Premarket Shares of Oracle Corp rose 0.7% to $191.09 in premarket action Tuesday. This shift is significant as Oracle’s stock now serves as a real-time gauge for two key issues: its ability to secure major cloud contracts against stronger competitors, and if its heavy AI-focused investment will generate quick returns. Simply put, “multicloud” means companies distribute their workloads across multiple top cloud platforms to steer clear of lock-in and boost performance. A report released Monday by Information Services Group found that more U.S. enterprises are adopting Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) alongside major

Walmart stock ticks up premarket as Nasdaq-100 inclusion, ‘affordable chic’ push come into focus

New York, Jan 20, 2026, 7:59 a.m. EST — Premarket Shares of Walmart Inc crept up in premarket action Tuesday, gaining roughly 0.7% to reach $119.70. Walmart is set to join the Nasdaq-100 index before the market opens, taking over AstraZeneca’s spot, according to Nasdaq and index-tracking sources. (Nasdaq) Inclusion matters since passive funds and other Nasdaq-100 trackers often become forced buyers during rebalances, sparking short-term demand that doesn’t always align with underlying fundamentals.

LONDON, January 20, 2026, 11:38 GMT — Regular session Bitcoin dropped roughly 2% on Tuesday, hitting around $91,247 after dipping to an intraday low of $90,642.

Bitcoin slides, but crypto presales say they’re raising millions — here’s what’s being pitched

LONDON, Jan 20, 2026, 11:04 GMT A wave of crypto presales is touting fresh capital inflows despite bitcoin’s recent drop, with paid promotions highlighting fundraising figures for tokens spanning “Bitcoin Layer 2” projects to meme coins. https://cryptodnes.bg/en/best-crypto-presales-why-bitcoin-hyper-and-maxi-doge-are-raising-millions/ Market sentiment has shifted to defensive territory. Bitcoin dropped below $92,000 amid tariff concerns rattling risk assets.

NEW YORK, Jan 20, 2026, 06:02 (EST) A press release on crypto site CryptoNinjas reported that the token presale for Digitap ($TAP) has exceeded $4 million. Promoters tout the project as a banking-style app featuring Visa cards. The post also drew a comparison between Digitap and DeepSnitch AI, another early-stage crypto venture leveraging artificial intelligence to analyze market data. (CryptoNinjas) The flurry matters because token presales—early-stage token sales typically held before a public exchange listing—have long provided a reliable funding stream for crypto projects, especially when venture capital dries up and retail traders lose interest.
