Market Wrap: Tech & Crypto Surge Ahead of Fed Rate Decision
A massive wave of bullish momentum hit global markets today, powered by record tech earnings and easing crypto downside risks. Here is your ultra-concise breakdown:
🌐 Global Markets & Tech
Asian Chip Rally: KOSPI jumped +6.63% back above 6,000, sparked by SK Hynix’s record Q3 results and a ₩100T shareholder return program. Samsung (+9%), Kioxia (+13.8%), and TSMC (+1.04%) rallied hard.
US Tech Earnings: Alphabet and Microsoft report tonight, with a laser focus on AI capex. Amazon reports Thursday (AWS capacity largely sold out into 2028), while Apple reports on November 2.
Robinhood: Tumbled -8.42% following its after-hours earnings report.
🪙 Crypto & Bitcoin Dynamics
Bitcoin Spot Price: Rose +2.3% to ~$81,400, firmly recovering after a brief dip below $80,000 earlier this week.
Altcoin Gainers: Pepe topped the CoinDesk 100 with a +9.4% spike (Justin Sun-linked wallets hold ~$51M). HYPE (+6%) and ZEC (+5%) followed closely.
ETF Flows: October flows stabilized to nearly flat after a healthy +$176M inflow on Tuesday.
Bull Market Invalidation: Galaxy's Thorn notes the bear market officially ended in June, marking $76,540 as the critical macro invalidation line.
📉 Key Macro & Expiry Triggers
The Fed Decision: Expected at 18:00 UTC today. Markets place a 92% probability on a rate hold, making Governor Warsh’s upcoming press conference the main volatility catalyst.
Massive $10.9B Expiry: 135,000 Bitcoin options expire this Friday (October 30) with Max Pain at $78,000 (4% below spot). A low 0.53 put/call ratio signals that short-term downside hedging has dramatically eased.
