German technology stocks, such as Infineon, AIXTRON, and Siltronic, also moved higher, contributing to a 0.7% intraday increase in the broader European technology index – a clear signal of improving sentiment in this sector. Solid performances were also recorded by automotive and luxury goods stocks. Companies like Stellantis, Porsche, and Volkswagen reported gains, while luxury brands such as Kering, Dior, and Burberry collectively recovered. This indicates growing market optimism regarding the recovery of consumer demand and the manufacturing sector. However, peripheral markets such as Greece, Morocco, and Turkey experienced slight declines, which remain constrained by geopolitical tensions and persistent inflation uncertainty.
📣 TODAY AT 2:30 PM – IMPORTANT DATA REGARDING THE DOLLAR! 🇺🇸
📊 US GDP (2nd estimate for Q1): Estimates are flying between -0.1% and -0.7%. If the decline is confirmed or even greater – it's a clear signal that the economy is slowing down. A weaker economy usually reduces interest in the dollar and increases interest in gold as a safe haven 🪙
🛒 Jobless claims: Expected at 229 thousand – slightly more than the previous 227 thousand. A slight increase in claims = weaker labor market = dollar weakens and gold takes flight ✨
In addition, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have once again seen a wave of capital inflows this week, highlighting growing conviction among both institutional and retail investors in Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory.
Standard Chartered has made a bold forecast, projecting that Bitcoin could surpass $120,000 as early as June, with the potential to reach the $200,000 mark by year-end. From supportive policy signals and international adoption to accelerating capital flows, multiple tailwinds are now laying a solid foundation for Bitcoin’s price. The current pullback may not mark the end of the rally, but rather a period of consolidation ahead of a potential new surge.
For investors who truly understand the shifting landscape, this could well be a rare “diamond window” for strategic positioning. Bitcoin’s future is increasingly being written into national strategies around the world.#Bitcoin2025 #TrumpMediaBitcoinTreasury
From a technical standpoint, if ETH fails to hold above the ascending triangle support and the dynamic 14-day EMA, it may slip toward the $2,480 level, or even as low as $2,260. On the upside, resistance is clustered between $2,750 and $2,850—only a decisive breakout above this zone would signal the start of a new upward trend, with a potential target at $3,250. For Bitcoin, key support remains in the $106,500–$107,300 range. As long as this zone holds, the bullish outlook remains intact, with the next upside targets at $120,000 and $150,000. SOL is also holding above its trendline support in the $166–$173 region. If this level remains unbroken, further upside towards the $190–$210 range can be expected. In addition, AI-related altcoins warrant continued attention. The narrative is straightforward—closely tied to the direction of Trump’s economic agenda. For example, the FQAI token could attract heightened institutional interest if next month’s Canary Testing delivers results in line with expectations.
This week, Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high of $111,900. Even more strikingly, the total market capitalization of all altcoins climbed to $1.29 trillion—the highest level since February. In contrast, U.S. equities showed signs of weakness. The Dow Jones Industrial Average retreated more than 3% from its monthly peak, with top-tier blue-chip stocks broadly declining and seeing significant market cap erosion. The U.S. dollar also faltered, with the Dollar Index dropping to around 99.10, marking a confirmed technical correction. Why has Bitcoin managed to rally against this backdrop? One key driver is a rise in demand for safe-haven assets. A recent white paper from BlackRock highlights that, amid surging U.S. government debt, Bitcoin is increasingly being viewed as a form of “digital gold”—a hedge against fiscal instability.#Bitcoin2025 #BinanceAlphaAlert #BinanceHODLerHAEDAL #ETHMarketWatch #

Meanwhile, Trump reignited fears of a trade war by announcing a new round of aggressive tariff proposals, raising concerns about a possible escalation of global trade tensions. U.S. stocks experienced a brief period of panic selling on Friday as many investors quickly sought to reduce risk. This shift in sentiment contributed to a broader market correction observed throughout the week. Trump's remarks focused on two key proposals: Firstly, from June 1, all imports from the European Union would be subject to a uniform 50% tariff.
