Polymarket hack puts ICE-backed prediction market in focus

Polymarket’s latest hack is small next to its market valuation. But the numbers point to changing risk for investors—it's less about smart contracts and more about the web layer users see. Polymarket said on Thursday that a third-party vendor was compromised, which let attackers slip malicious code onto its frontend seen by some users. The company said it contained the issue, removed the bad dependency, and is now contacting users who lost funds to offer refunds. A Polymarket spokesperson, Connor Brandi, told TechCrunch that user funds were stolen but didn't say more.
Hedge Funds Aim at $80 Brent as Pandemic-Era Short Lives On (ICE Futures Europe: B)

Hedge Funds Aim at $80 Brent as Pandemic-Era Short Lives On (ICE Futures Europe: B)

ICE Brent crude dropped near $79.10 a barrel on Monday, off almost 2%, after running up to $82.30 earlier. That’s a $3.20 swing, or 3.9%, on reports of U.S.–Iran negotiation progress and Tehran saying it secured waivers for oil and petrochemical exports. The new supply story outweighed warnings about the Strait of Hormuz and fueled hedge fund bets that Brent can stay under $80. The market move wasn’t about a demand change. Supply is starting to appear. Reuters said more than 25 million barrels of Iranian oil have now moved across the old U.S. blockade, with mediators setting out a 60-day talks plan. “Progress between the U.S. and Iran in the talks in Switzerland is likely the main factor weighing on oil prices today,” UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo said.

2026 Stock Market Crash Talk Swirls Amid Mixed Historic Signals

2026 Stock Market Crash Talk Swirls Amid Mixed Historic Signals

Stocks wrapped up trading before the holiday with Wall Street still close to all-time highs. The S&P 500 settled at 7,500.58 on Thursday, which is 9.6% above its 2025 close. The Nasdaq Composite finished at 26,517.93 and the Dow posted 51,564.70. No sign of a confirmed crash, but there's not much room if things go wrong. This matters now as the rally stands on a clear trade-off. AI spending is pushing profits higher, but expensive valuations, tight market leadership and a stronger Fed rate outlook are making stocks more vulnerable to misses on earnings or inflation.
Fidelity Adds State Street Backing in Active ETF Race

Fidelity Adds State Street Backing in Active ETF Race

Fidelity International named Elisa Prezzavento as director of ETF product strategy and development, bringing on a former State Street product exec as the firm builds out its active ETF push in Europe and Asia-Pacific. Fidelity said Prezzavento’s London job covers product strategy, new active ETF concepts, and targeting client demand. Active ETFs are still pulling in money in Europe, even though they start from a low level. Latest figures from Morningstar show Europe-domiciled active ETF assets hit 85.6 billion euros as of March 31, up from 78.8 billion euros at the end of 2025. That’s just 3.1% of all European ETF assets.
Stock Market Closed on Good Friday 2026? NYSE, Nasdaq Shut as Jobs Report Lands

Stock Market Closed on Good Friday 2026? NYSE, Nasdaq Shut as Jobs Report Lands

U.S. equities will go dark Friday, April 3, for Good Friday. The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq are both scheduled to halt trading after Thursday’s normal close, according to their published 2026 calendars. Markets are slated to resume regular hours on Monday, April 6. Timing is key here. The Labor Department’s March jobs report lands Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET, but equity traders are left without a normal session to respond. This follows a Thursday when Wall Street futures slipped and oil prices rose, after President Donald Trump made fresh remarks about Iran.

Mastercard’s BVNK Deal Puts Trade Finance Tokenization – and Solana – in Focus

Mastercard’s BVNK Deal Puts Trade Finance Tokenization – and Solana – in Focus

Mastercard has struck a deal to acquire BVNK for as much as $1.8 billion, intensifying the race among heavyweight financial firms looking to embed blockchain into everyday payments and trade finance. Unveiled Tuesday, the agreement hands the card giant a stronger position in stablecoin infrastructure—digital tokens tied to currencies like the dollar—across remittances, business transactions, and payouts. The timing matters because a string of recent experiments is starting to converge. Just last week, Aon reported what it says is the first stablecoin insurance-premium payment handled by a major broker—settling with USDC on Ethereum and PayPal USD over Solana. Earlier, in a February report, Citi detailed its own internal proof of concept with PwC and Solana, converting a bill of exchange into a token and running it through a full simulated issuance-to-settlement workflow.
Nasdaq Partners With Kraken on Tokenized Stocks, Eyes 2027 Launch

Nasdaq Partners With Kraken on Tokenized Stocks, Eyes 2027 Launch

Nasdaq announced Monday it's developing a new system for tokenized shares—those built on blockchain technology—and has enlisted Payward, the company behind crypto exchange Kraken, to help create the link between established stock markets and blockchain platforms. This is significant at this moment, with a top U.S. exchange stepping further into tokenized equities only days after banking regulators decided lenders won’t face additional capital requirements for blockchain-based securities. SEC staff, back in January, stated that tokenized shares may be handled as traditional ones provided holders retain essentially the same rights and privileges.
Financial services stocks face a Tuesday test as Trump’s 10% credit-card cap deadline nears

Financial services stocks face a Tuesday test as Trump’s 10% credit-card cap deadline nears

NEW YORK, January 19, 2026, 13:33 EST — Market closed Financial services stocks reopened Tuesday amid uncertainty over card lenders. President Donald Trump has proposed capping credit card interest rates at 10% for one year starting Jan. 20, though he didn’t specify how it would be enforced. Banks quickly pushed back, warning that tighter credit could result. JPMorgan Chase CFO Jeremy Barnum said broad price caps would cause people to “lose access to credit.” Currently, average credit card rates hover around 22%, while U.S. card balances hit $1.23 trillion in Q3. A Vanderbilt University study suggests a 10% cap might save consumers $100 billion annually.

Wall Street is shut for MLK Day — the 2026 U.S. market holiday calendar and the crypto ETF catch

Wall Street is shut for MLK Day — the 2026 U.S. market holiday calendar and the crypto ETF catch

U.S. stock markets, including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, will be closed Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Trading picks back up Tuesday. The next full-market closure won’t be until Presidents Day on Feb. 16, 2026. The timing is crucial since the U.S. operates on a T+1 settlement cycle—meaning trades settle one business day after the trade date—for most stocks and ETFs. With Monday a holiday, trades executed late last week won’t settle until Tuesday, delaying the cash and share exchange by a full day.

  • MCI Premium Drops as Stock Falls, Analyst Notes
    June 29, 2026, 3:01 PM EDT. MCI shares fell, and its premium over NAV came down too. Nick Ackerman, who writes for CEF/ETF Income Laboratory and used to be a financial advisor, pointed to the move. He doesn't own MCI. Ackerman said drops in CEF premiums often signal changing sentiment toward these funds, which do not trade like regular mutual funds. The comment is aimed at investors watching monthly-paying CEFs and ETFs for income. Ackerman made no calls on MCI here but stressed that knowing how premiums shift can matter for anyone chasing yields above 8% with income or arbitrage strategies.
