Oil prices surge, so be careful with stocks and rate-cut expectations
Crude oil surged 5.7%; what the market fears most at the next stop is not the gas station, but “inflation + high interest rates”
When many people see crude oil soaring, their first reaction is that energy stocks are about to take off.
That’s right, but if oil prices continue rising, what financial markets really need to watch out for is inflation picking up again.
After tensions between the US and Iran escalated, crude oil prices quickly climbed, with Brent briefly reaching around $95 and WTI moving above $91. Meanwhile, the

Trading + social + rewards—Gate has turned event contracts into an “open-book exam”
Gate Event Contract Sharing Challenge: This time, it’s not just trading—it’s more like a public test of market judgment
If event contracts are compared to an exam, choosing Up or Down is your answer, while the prediction period and rationale are the “working” you must write out.
Gate’s sharing challenge this time has brought this process to the public square.
After completing an event contract trade, users can post screenshots of their positions, trading screenshots, or settlement results; they can also directl

Bitcoin is generally showing a choppy downward trend. After meeting resistance and retreating from the high around 77790 early this morning, it broke through short-term support levels one after another during the volatile decline, reaching a low around 76260. It is currently trading at 77273, with weak intraday rebounds and continued selling pressure from bears.

Ethereum's movement remains highly correlated with Bitcoin, also beginning a retreat from the intraday high and displaying weakness throughout as it followed Bitcoin lower, highlighting strong market linkage.

This was purely the market being in a good mood and casually tossing out a few gold coins—one just happened to hit me on the head. 🪙 During the repeated intraday swings, $BZ was simply forming a bottom without breaking down, with buyers catching every dip. This kind of movement was so typical that I casually put out a signal. After holding on for so long, the payoff is finally right in front of me.

USDT Directly Settles U.S. Stock Options—This Move by Gate Is Very “Crypto”
With Gate’s launch of U.S. stock options this time, what I’m really paying attention to isn’t the 9 stocks, but the settlement method it chose.
The answer is: USDT cash settlement.
According to the rules published by Gate, the U.S. stock options traded by users will not involve direct delivery of stocks upon exercise. Instead, they will be settled through the cash difference, with positions ultimately settled in USDT.
This may look like a mere technical detail, but it actually has a strong “crypto market” feel.
Why?

The launch of options is just the beginning: will Gate continue expanding next?
Gate’s U.S. stock options have officially launched, but I think what is truly worth anticipating is not the first batch of 9 stocks.
Because judging from Gate’s product roadmap over the past year, it is clearly shifting from “adding more cryptocurrencies” to “adding more asset classes.”
This first batch of U.S. stock options covers Nvidia, Tesla, Apple, Meta, AMD, Micron, Amazon, Alphabet, and Broadcom.
These underlying assets are almost all major companies in the current U.S. technology and AI industry chain.

CLO is up 26% in 24 hours, with $30 million in trading volume—but for a coin like this, I recommend shorting it outright. Don’t rush to criticize me; hear me out first.
Do you think a pump means consensus? Look at the data first: the 24-hour high was 0.1795, the low was 0.1361, and the range exceeded 30%. This kind of volatility signals distribution by a pump-and-dump scheme, not a trend reversal. A truly healthy rise should involve a breakout after low-volume consolidation, not wild jumps with $30M in trading volume. That kind of volume is negligible for major coins, but for a small coin, it’

$MAGMA 16 minutes went from 0.40 to 0.69 and then crashed back to 0.51—this wick is even more vicious than those algorithmic traders on Wall Street. Don’t rush to ask whether you can chase it; first see what the Federal Reserve’s minutes from early yesterday morning said—the line that “some officials lacked confidence in inflation continuing to cool” directly sent the probability of a September rate cut in interest-rate futures from 78% down to 64%. This is the real boss: once it turns hawkish, all risk assets have to kneel. The $MAGMA pump was completed before the minutes were released, a cla

$AKE Making money feels so good—I’ve already made 20x. Feels great; keep making money. I won’t sell until it reaches 100x.

$AKE Everyone must be careful with anyone offering free trading signals, as they may very well be a market maker themselves, waiting to use altcoins to take your money. In any case, be wary of others but do not harm them. Just focus on yourself! Don't reveal everything about yourself to someone online. I originally trusted him, but when I saw that he opened a short position at 0.159 in the end, I knew it—he is the market maker behind ake.

Fully closed $OTC. Great trade. Could have executed a little better. It could go higher. But the goal is consistency.
