Bitcoin lending bounces back, Wall Street credit takes lead as $60,000 level looms

Bitcoin lending bounces back, Wall Street credit takes lead as $60,000 level looms

Silicon Valley Bank, part of First Citizens BancShares, put bitcoin-backed loans in front of credit investors again, saying the business has shifted from failed crypto firms to overcollateralized lending, bank lines, and rated ABS. CoinDesk and FinanceFeeds reported on the change in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin traded under $60,000 at the time. For investors, the key is in the loan terms. A lender who requires $2 in bitcoin for every $1 lent and who liquidates at 80% loan-to-value gets a 37.5% price cushion on bitcoin before forced selling, if there’s no repayment or collateral added. At the price on the dateline, liquidation would hit around $37,100. SVB said Ledn hasn’t reported losses from collateralized consumer loans after bitcoin’s 48% slide from last year’s high.

Industrials trade ahead of S&P 500 as FedEx, inflation data in focus

Industrials trade ahead of S&P 500 as FedEx, inflation data in focus

Industrial names in the U.S. outperformed the market last week, getting a boost from lower oil that helped transports, while buyers stuck with equipment makers tied to power and data-center buildouts. Now traders want to see if earnings and numbers will back up the rally’s split. Industrials are moving ahead, which is important since these stocks track the economy. The group covers aerospace and defense, machinery, electrical gear, and transport — most of the sector. That puts it in the path of swings in fuel costs, rates, shipping demand and orders at factories.

S&P 500 faces Warsh push as Citi eyes 8,100 on AI earnings

S&P 500 faces Warsh push as Citi eyes 8,100 on AI earnings

NEW YORK, June 15, 2026, 10:03 a.m. ET U.S. stocks kicked off the week higher as investors weighed a slide in oil and optimism over AI. The S&P 500 was up around 1.5% early Monday. Oil dropped after the U.S. and Iran said they agreed to end the war and reopen Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude fell close to 5%, AP and Reuters reported. Investors pointed to strong AI spending as another reason for gains.

Nasdaq rises as AI names find support after market selloff

Nasdaq rises as AI names find support after market selloff

Nasdaq leads gains as chip stocks bounce; Dow flat U.S. equities ended in the green Monday after buyers returned to technology and chip stocks. Nasdaq Composite led with a 1.27% gain, closing up 329.47 points at 26,036.94. The S&P 500 rose 47.67 points, or 0.63%, to 7,430.49. The Dow posted a small advance, up just 6.62 points, or 0.01%, to 50,871.37. The Philadelphia SE Semiconductor Index added 6.2%. “A little bit of bargain hunting,” said Rick Meckler, partner at Cherry Lane Investments. AI and chip stocks led Friday’s drop, setting back the market’s leaders. All three major indexes tumbled, with the Nasdaq posting its heaviest daily percentage drop since April 2025. The S&P 500 ended a nine-week Friday winning streak after nonfarm payrolls blew past forecasts.

Wall Street’s Chip Rebound Lifts Nasdaq — Inflation Test Comes Next

Wall Street’s Chip Rebound Lifts Nasdaq — Inflation Test Comes Next

Wall Street advanced in Monday morning trading, led by a rebound in chip and other technology shares, as investors moved back into the artificial intelligence trade after Friday’s sharp break in momentum. The Nasdaq Composite was up 1.43%, the S&P 500 rose 0.87% to 7,448.31 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.22%, Reuters market data from LSEG showed. The move matters because one of the year’s main market engines — demand for AI chips and computing power — had begun to look less certain. Monday’s bounce suggested investors were not ready to abandon the trade, even as they watched rates, oil and earnings risk more closely.

Goldman Sachs Jumps as Dow Sets New High

Goldman Sachs Jumps as Dow Sets New High

Goldman Sachs traded up nearly 4.6% Thursday afternoon, hitting $1,095.89 before pulling back to $1,088.63, up $47.61 from Wednesday’s finish. That move was enough to give the Dow Jones Industrial Average a boost as buyers came back to financial stocks. That’s a bigger deal than just any bank-stock swing because Goldman trades at a high price and is in the Dow. The Dow works as a price-weighted index, so higher-priced stocks move the index more than cheaper ones, no matter how big the companies are; S&P Dow Jones Indices calls it a 30-stock price-weighted measure of large U.S. companies.

Oil Price Forecast This Week: Brent’s 6% Slide Leaves Traders Staring at $120 Risk

Oil Price Forecast This Week: Brent’s 6% Slide Leaves Traders Staring at $120 Risk

Oil prices managed a bounce on Friday but still wrapped up the week in the red, with traders eyeing U.S.-Iran diplomacy more than the usual supply reports as violence flares near the Strait of Hormuz. Brent crude, the international standard, settled at $101.29 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate closed at $95.42. Both benchmarks slid over 6% for the week. “The market is hung between a breakthrough in negotiations and a renewal of the fighting,” said John Kilduff, partner at Again Capital. The market’s not just moving with the usual supply swings anymore. China’s crude imports tumbled 20% in April, sliding to 38.5 million metric tons—the lowest mark since July 2022—after the Hormuz shutdown tightened flows to the top oil buyer, according to customs figures.

Dollar Today In Mexico: Peso Jumps As Iran Peace Hopes Knock Greenback Lower

Dollar Today In Mexico: Peso Jumps As Iran Peace Hopes Knock Greenback Lower

The peso strengthened on Wednesday, finishing the session at 17.23 per dollar. The greenback slipped, while talk of potential U.S.-Iran deal progress lured investors toward riskier bets. The timing of the move is key, landing right before the Bank of Mexico’s policy meeting on Thursday and pushing the peso to levels that ripple through remittances, tourism, trade payments, and the way Mexican households and companies buy dollars. When the peso strengthens, it takes fewer pesos to buy a dollar—but families receiving money from overseas end up with less local currency per dollar sent.

Citigroup Stock’s Big Week: Fitch Turns Positive, and Jane Fraser Gets One More Test

Citigroup Stock’s Big Week: Fitch Turns Positive, and Jane Fraser Gets One More Test

Fitch Ratings shifted its outlook on Citigroup Inc. to positive on Friday, while keeping the bank’s long- and short-term issuer ratings steady at A and F1. That’s a nod to CEO Jane Fraser’s restructuring efforts, which Fitch said are showing results. It’s not a ratings upgrade—more a hint at where Citi’s ratings could head if momentum continues. Timing is key here. Citi’s investor day lands Thursday, May 7, with CEO Fraser, CFO Gonzalo Luchetti, and leaders from Services, Markets, Banking, Wealth, and U.S. Consumer Cards all slated to present. This time, investors want to see real proof of sustainable earnings—not just another round of updates on the company’s ongoing clean-up.

Citi’s $52 Million JPMorgan Hire Vis Raghavan Faces Fresh Scrutiny Before Investor Day

Citi’s $52 Million JPMorgan Hire Vis Raghavan Faces Fresh Scrutiny Before Investor Day

Citigroup’s $52 million hire of Vis Raghavan—the ex-JPMorgan Chase investment-banking chief now leading Citi’s banking division—has come under new scrutiny. According to the Financial Times, JPMorgan told Raghavan he was out following years of complaints about his conduct, and Citi scooped him up just three days after. The FT’s story draws on conversations with more than 15 sources familiar with Raghavan and the move. Timing is key here. Citi’s investor day lands May 7, with Chief Executive Jane Fraser, finance boss Gonzalo Luchetti, and Raghavan all slated to present. The showcase was set to highlight progress on Fraser’s turnaround. But now, one of her top external recruits is back in the spotlight.

Citi Wealth Turns to Advyzon for Global Unified Managed Account Rollout as Banks Push Deeper Into Alternatives

Citi Wealth Turns to Advyzon for Global Unified Managed Account Rollout as Banks Push Deeper Into Alternatives

Citi Wealth plans to join forces with wealth-tech company Advyzon, aiming to roll out a global unified managed account platform. The move is set to streamline client investments—combining ETFs, mutual funds, separately managed accounts, and alternatives under a single structure. Target launch for the first phase: fourth quarter 2026, covering Citi Private Bank, Wealth at Work, Citigold, and Citi Private Client segments. This push is significant for Citi, which continues efforts to streamline its wealth business and boost steady investment revenue. A unified managed account—known as a UMA—essentially brings multiple strategies together under one account, with consolidated fees, paperwork, and reporting that would otherwise be separate.

Dow Jones Today: Dow Lags as S&P 500 Hits Record High on Iran Talk Hopes, Bank Earnings

Dow Jones Today: Dow Lags as S&P 500 Hits Record High on Iran Talk Hopes, Bank Earnings

The Dow Jones Industrial Average trailed the broader market on Wednesday, down roughly 0.4%. The S&P 500 notched its first intraday record since the U.S.-Iran conflict kicked off, while the Nasdaq climbed nearly 1%. Renewed optimism over possible Washington-Tehran talks, along with another batch of upbeat bank earnings, helped sustain the risk-on mood. The split makes a difference for the Dow, since the 30-stock index gives more weight to share price than to a company’s market cap. Both the Dow and Nasdaq slipped into correction territory during the war-fueled selloff—a correction signals a decline of at least 10% from a recent peak—and Wednesday’s session showed that the bounce back remains patchy.

US Stock Market Today: S&P 500 Hits Record as Wall Street Bets Earnings Can Outrun War Shock

US Stock Market Today: S&P 500 Hits Record as Wall Street Bets Earnings Can Outrun War Shock

U.S. stocks pressed upward Wednesday, the S&P 500 setting a fresh intraday high—the first since the U.S.-Iran conflict erupted—while the Nasdaq advanced nearly 1% by midafternoon. The Dow trailed behind, but sentiment held up, fueled by robust bank earnings and renewed optimism for possible Washington-Tehran talks. This shift carries weight: investors are putting money into U.S. stocks despite lingering oil shock worries around inflation. Citigroup upgraded U.S. equities to overweight this week. Their call? The valuation gap between the U.S. and other developed markets is narrowing toward its old averages, with tech leading an increasing chunk of global earnings growth.

S&P 500 Nears Record as Iran Talk Hopes Sink Oil, Lift Dow and Nasdaq in Earnings Rush

S&P 500 Nears Record as Iran Talk Hopes Sink Oil, Lift Dow and Nasdaq in Earnings Rush

U.S. stocks jumped on Tuesday, pushing the S&P 500 to within 0.2% of its January record close, as falling oil prices and fresh hopes for renewed U.S.-Iran talks pulled investors back into risk assets. The Nasdaq climbed about 2% and logged its longest winning streak since 2021, while the Dow added nearly 318 points. The move matters because Wall Street had been bracing for a longer energy shock after Washington moved to blockade Iranian ports. Instead, President Donald Trump said talks with Tehran could resume in Pakistan within two days, reviving bets on a diplomatic off-ramp and a reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil shipping lane.

US Stock Market Today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq Jump as Iran Talk Hopes and Bank Earnings Lift Wall Street

U.S. stocks climbed Tuesday, with the S&P 500 nearly erasing its recent losses from the Middle East turmoil. Hints of a possible restart in U.S.-Iran talks, paired with a new batch of earnings, buoyed sentiment. As of 11:26 a.m. ET, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had gained 290.36 points, or 0.60%. The S&P 500 was up 0.88%, while the Nasdaq Composite surged 1.41%. This is relevant now as Wall Street weighs whether the last six weeks signal a short-lived oil shock or mark the beginning of a stickier inflation stretch. Investors found cover in a mild March producer-price report and an upbeat kickoff to Q1 earnings, despite the IMF dialing back its global growth forecast for 2026.

Citigroup Profit Jumps 42% as Trading, Dealmaking Power Best Revenue Quarter in a Decade

Citigroup Profit Jumps 42% as Trading, Dealmaking Power Best Revenue Quarter in a Decade

Citigroup’s first-quarter profit jumped 42% to $5.8 billion and beat analysts’ estimates, as volatile markets and stronger dealmaking lifted revenue to $24.6 billion, its highest quarterly level in a decade. Shares were up 1.4% in mid-morning New York trading. The numbers matter because Chief Executive Jane Fraser has spent years trying to lift returns and simplify the bank, and investors will get a fuller update on that plan at Citi’s May 7 investor day. Citi said 90% of its transformation programs are at or near target state, while return on tangible common equity, or RoTCE - a measure of profit generated from shareholder capital - rose to 13.1% from 9.1% a year earlier, above the bank’s 10% to 11% goal for 2026.

US Stock Market Week Ahead: Iran Talks, Bank Earnings and PPI Top What to Watch Before Monday’s Open

US Stock Market Week Ahead: Iran Talks, Bank Earnings and PPI Top What to Watch Before Monday’s Open

Wall Street’s Monday open could hinge on weekend U.S.-Iran discussions and initial tanker moves through the Strait of Hormuz. On Saturday, three supertankers navigated a trial passage while negotiators gathered in Islamabad, offering investors a glimpse at potential relief from the energy shock that rattled markets in March. The S&P 500 has almost erased its drop following the late-February U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, with Friday closing out the strongest week for major U.S. indexes since November. But expectations haven’t cooled off: According to Reuters, analysts are looking for S&P 500 companies to post first-quarter earnings growth of about 14% from last year, which doesn’t leave much cushion for disappointing forecasts.

Mortgage Rates Today: 30-Year Fixed Dips to 6.43%, but Spring Buyers Get Little Relief

Monday saw U.S. mortgage rates edge lower, though the move was slight. The daily index from Mortgage News Daily showed the average top-tier 30-year fixed rate at 6.43%, just 2 basis points—0.02 percentage point—below the previous level. Borrowing costs remain stubbornly elevated during what's typically the peak period for homebuyers. Freddie Mac’s latest weekly read put the 30-year fixed mortgage at 6.46%—a level not seen since early September. Meanwhile, purchase applications slid 3%, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association’s most recent data.

Silver Price Today: Silver Slips as Fed Cut Bets Fade and Iran Oil Risk Lifts Inflation Fears

Spot silver dipped 0.9% to $72.32 an ounce by 11:22 a.m. ET on Monday. Gold barely budged, while both platinum and palladium gave up ground. Bart Melek, TD Securities’ global head of commodity strategy, pointed out that a prolonged conflict involving Iran could drive oil higher and stoke inflation, which would tighten the leash on central banks looking to cut rates. This comes as metals markets tread a fine line. Last month, the Federal Reserve left its policy range unchanged at 3.50%-3.75%. Monday’s ISM services survey clocked prices paid at 70.7, a level not seen since October 2022. BMO economist Priscilla Thiagamoorthy called the numbers a reason to "reinforce the case for patience."
