Crypto stocks and Bitcoin ETFs wobble premarket after MSCI shelves crypto-treasury exclusion plan

Crypto stocks and Bitcoin ETFs wobble premarket after MSCI shelves crypto-treasury exclusion plan

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 07:33 (EST) — Premarket MSCI said it will not proceed with a proposal to exclude digital asset treasury companies — firms whose digital asset holdings make up 50% or more of total assets — from its indexes, opting instead for a broader consultation on how non-operating companies should be treated. Reuters That matters because index rules are not academic. Passive funds and benchmark trackers buy and sell when lists change, and the trade can spill into other crypto proxies fast. The timing is awkward, too. The first-week bounce in crypto has cooled, and the mood has

Morgan Stanley jumps into Bitcoin and Solana ETFs as U.S. bitcoin funds log $697 million inflow

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 06:46 EST — Premarket Morgan Stanley filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday to launch exchange-traded funds tied to the prices of bitcoin and solana, according to the filings. Reuters The timing matters because investors have been using crypto ETFs as the main on-ramp to digital assets, with daily fund flows offering a fast read on demand. Fresh inflows early in the year can amplify moves in the underlying tokens and tighten competition on fees and liquidity among providers.

Bitcoin price stock today: BTC ticks up near $88,000 as Fed minutes and ETF flows set the tone

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:43 ET — After-hours Bitcoin edged higher on Tuesday as investors weighed U.S. interest-rate signals and year-end positioning, with crypto-linked stocks trading mixed after Wall Street’s regular session ended. Reuters The modest move matters now because liquidity is thin into the final days of the year, which can exaggerate price swings across risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Analysts have cautioned against over-reading late-December moves. Reuters Markets were also digesting the Federal Reserve’s latest meeting minutes, which underscored debate inside the central bank about the path for policy in 2026 after a quarter-point rate cut earlier this

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 22:07 ET — Market closed BlackRock Inc shares edged up on Monday, ending nearly flat at $1,088.40 as Wall Street turned lower in holiday-thinned trading. Reuters For BlackRock, modest moves in markets matter because they feed directly into assets under management (AUM) — the pool of client money it charges fees on. The firm oversees more than $13 trillion, Reuters has reported.

Silver breaks $80 as SLV jumps 9% into year-end — what’s next for the ETF

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 7:59 PM ET — Market closed The iShares Silver Trust climbed 9.1% in the last U.S. session and remained in focus on Sunday after spot silver pushed above $80 an ounce for the first time, extending a record run in the metal.

Bitcoin Price Today at 1:38 (Dec. 23, 2025): BTC Holds Near $88K as ETF Outflows, Holiday Liquidity and Options Risk Shape the Outlook

Dec. 23, 2025 — Bitcoin is ending the year with a familiar pattern: sharp intraday swings, fading follow-through, and traders watching the same few catalysts on repeat. At 01:38 UTC on December 23, BTC was changing hands at about $88,511 (based on 1‑day market pricing data, sampled and interpolated around that timestamp). CoinGecko API By later on Dec. 23, Bitcoin remained pinned in the high-$80,000s, with the broader market narrative increasingly focused on U.S. spot ETF flows, thin holiday liquidity, and a massive year-end options expiration that could amplify volatility into the final week of 2025.

At 10:46 UTC on December 23, 2025, Bitcoin (BTC) was trading around the mid–$87,000s, slipping back after failing to hold a push above the $90,000 psychological level earlier in the week. FXStreet The setup heading into Christmas week is unusually “mechanical”: ETF flows, derivatives positioning, and liquidity conditions are doing more of the driving than any single headline catalyst. Multiple market notes published today point to the same message: thin liquidity can magnify moves in either direction, and the next major “pressure point” is the record options expiration due Friday (Dec. 26).
