Bitcoin trails stocks by most since 2019 as traders get their kicks elsewhere
Bitcoin hasn't had this cold a winter in seven years. The biggest crypto token – which trades with a market cap of $1.3 trillion – is down 35% since its relative strength versus the Nasdaq-100 peaked almost a year ago, during which the big-tech index has rallied about an equal amount. The resulting 70-percentage-point GAP is the widest in favor of stocks since March 2019, according to data compiled by CNBC.
No tech, no problem. Dow makes record and traders think these stocks can lead now
The flashiest group in the market took a step back Thursday as chip stocks dropped 1.5%, but U.S. stock market bulls didn't miss a beat. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at a fresh record following a 2% pop and the S&P 500 bounced 0.4% as 9 of 11 sectors advanced.

At more than $2 trillion, Broadcom is now...
Wall Street's 'fear gauge' punches back as the 'crash up' in chip stocks finally reverses
It's been one of the wildest stock markets on record lately but you wouldn't have known it looking at the Cboe Volatility Index. Friday's sell-off just made things a lot clearer. The non-stop, two-month 80% rally in semiconductor stocks that added roughly half a trillion dollars in market cap to the Nasdaq 100, spurred one of the most successful ETF launches in history, and birthed dozens of eye-popping, parabolic single stock moves, finally hit a wall on Friday as the VanEck Semiconductor...
Semiconductor shorts pile on as winning trade reverses
That escalated quickly. Investors' favorite trade is suddenly the one they can't stop betting against, even as it keeps going lower. Chip stocks in the VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH) are down on Tuesday.
Two reasons for optimism after Tuesday's whipsaw market sell-off
With CPI inflation data in the morning and software giant Oracle reporting earnings after the bell, Wednesday presents a big test for a U.S. stock market trying to find its footing after its worst day in a year and a nail-biting whipsaw session on Tuesday. There's reason for optimism, judging by bullish options flows around stocks that do better when interest-rates stay lower, and call-buyers who are prepared for the biggest move in Oracle since Covid.
