Bitcoin spiked to $83,300 and returned to around $83,000 as U.S. stocks rallied on Q3 earnings beats from General Motors and 3M, before pulling back toward $82,000. At the time of writing, the Dow gained 1.2%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq rose 0.6% and 0.5%. WTI crude briefly topped $100 per barrel for the first time since Sept. 17 before falling below $96. Data showed $125 million in short liquidations and open interest rising about 2.1% to $53.86 billion, though bitcoin was rejected at the 21-day moving average near $83,230, and analyst Keith Alan said a defense of the 50-day SMA at $81,570 would be a key indicator of demand.

- Bitcoin stays stable as volatility hits the global markets
Host Scott Melker of The Daily Wolf says Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has stayed steady while global markets sell off, citing headlines of a crashing Japanese stock market, pending home sales falling to their lowest level in history, France's 10-year bond yield surging to 5% for the first time since 2002, and Brent crude reaching a five-month high. China's stock market is on track for 11 straight losing weeks, and the CCC-rated junk bond yield hit 17.66%. Bitcoin's volatility has fallen to a 2.5-year low, quieter than roughly 20% of S&P 500 stocks, even as traders brace for a 30% move. Melker argues that Bitcoin's volatility, when uncorrelated with other assets, could benefit a portfolio, and notes that Tesla continues to hold its bitcoin rather than sell.
- Bitcoin's Next Move: Here's What to Watch
Bitcoin trades just below $83,000, above its 50-day EMA ($80,702.8) and 200-day EMA ($76,123.1), after total crypto market capitalization rose nearly 2% to $2.8 trillion on Tuesday. The RSI at 53.34 indicates neutral momentum with a slightly positive tilt. The nearest resistance is $87,371, which Bitcoin would need to close above on the daily chart to confirm a new upward move, while support sits at $80,433 and $76,140. The backdrop remains tense, with Brent crude near $110 a barrel amid attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and the Federal Reserve set to meet on Oct. 27–28.
- Zcash Leads Crypto Bounce, Surging 8.5% as Bitcoin Reclaims $83,000
Crypto markets rebounded on Tuesday, led by Zcash, which rose 8.5% in 24 hours to $1,215.85 and lifted its market cap to $20.57 billion. Bitcoin gained 1.57% to $83,195 and Ethereum climbed 2.90% to $2,463.35, while total crypto market cap rose 1.68% to $2.78 trillion. Zcash had fallen about 25% over the past month, so the bounce partly reflects an oversold market where forced liquidations of leveraged bets had already worked through selling pressure. Macro risks remain high, with Brent crude near $110 a barrel and the 10-year Treasury yield above 5%, and traders are watching the Federal Reserve's upcoming policy meeting.
- AI Predicts Bitcoin Stays Still While Oil Breaks $110
Bitcoin held near $82,000, up 0.21% over 24 hours at $82,198, even as Brent crude rose above $110 after a US warning to Americans in 12 Middle Eastern countries about cancelled flights and closed airspace. Trading volume rose 84.8% to $24.7 billion while price stayed flat. CryptoQuant data show that the share of coins bought six to twelve months earlier that moved to exchanges, a common sign of selling, fell from 40.4% in the window ending June 17 to 4.4% in the window ending October 15, or 9,100 BTC. The article argues that oil at $110 could feed into inflation, with September PPI at 6.3% against a 5.3% forecast and CPI at 3.7%.
- Bitcoin Tests Key Support as Oil and AI Fears Squeeze Markets
Bitcoin traded near $82,164 after touching $83,040 earlier in the day, sitting just above a key support line. Brent crude hovered near $108 a barrel after attacks on Persian Gulf tankers and Russian crude facilities, while September CPI rose 3.7% and PPI jumped 6.3%, raising expectations of a Federal Reserve rate hike. The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 5.08%, and spot Bitcoin ETFs lost about $910 million over two weeks. The Nasdaq Composite fell more than 2% on Friday for its worst week since June, with CoreWeave down about 24% over the week. Technically, RSI sits at 49.3 and ADX at 21.6, signaling no firm trend, and the article notes that a daily close below $81,603 could open the way to $81,196.
- Bitcoin rebounds above $82 , 000 as oil prices fall and risk appetite improves
Bitcoin rose above $82,000 on Monday as falling oil prices improved investor confidence in risky assets, climbing as much as 2.3% in early Asian trading. Ether gained as much as 3.7% and Solana more than 4.6%. Crude oil still traded around $107 a barrel, while US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $228.6 million in net outflows last week after $681 million the week before. Damien Loh of Ericsenz Capital called the move a recovery after a difficult week for risky assets, warning that Bitcoin may struggle to reach new highs soon, and the cryptocurrency remains within the $80,000–$85,000 range.

- Musk's wants to merge SpaceX and Tesla: Here's what to know
Musk said SpaceX and Tesla have formed special committees to study a merger, which would be worth about $3.5 trillion combined and would be the largest corporate deal in history. SpaceX, valued at about $2 trillion after a record listing this year, absorbed Musk's AI startup xAI in February, while Tesla is valued at about $1.5 trillion. Musk holds about 82 percent of SpaceX's voting power but only about 20 percent at Tesla. Dan Ives puts the odds of a deal at 90 percent by early 2027, though Musk called the requirement of a majority of all Tesla shares 'quite a high hurdle'. Loyal retail investors hold an estimated 25 to 27 percent of Tesla shares, and legal obstacles appear slight because both companies moved their incorporation to Texas from Delaware.
- CoreWeave and Nebius Stocks Are Crashing. Time to Buy the Dip?
Shares of Nebius and CoreWeave each fell 25% in the week of October 12 to 16. The sell-off stems from the yield on CoreWeave's debt in the secondary market surging to 15%, versus roughly 5% on Treasuries, which pushes the debt into 'distressed' territory and signals doubts about its ability to meet obligations. Nebius sold off in sympathy as a fellow neocloud company. The bigger concern is that both companies must keep issuing debt to fund data centers, and if yields are high at issuance, the assumption of nearly unlimited cheap capital could be challenged. The author says it is unclear whether now is the time to buy.
- Disney’s multiplatform Super Bowl plan frustrates ABC affiliates
ABC station owners are irritated that Disney is airing the Super Bowl across several platforms, including Disney+, ESPN2, NFL Network and ESPNU, even though the game is already on ABC and ESPN. A station group CEO estimates that the combined platforms could cut broadcast ad revenue by up to 35% compared with last year. Local affiliates typically earn about 3% of annual ad revenue from the Super Bowl and pay network owners reverse retransmission fees, but Disney+ lacks geofenced ad insertion, so affiliates cannot sell ads to streaming viewers. Disney says national commercials will be identical on all platforms and that streaming major live events is standard industry practice. Super Bowl LX drew 125.6 million viewers in February.
- Meta’s deal to keep Zuckerberg in California adds fuel to wealth tax debate ahead of election
Meta says Mark Zuckerberg will remain in California for eight years and has created a new stock plan that could help cover his taxes if Proposition 40, a 5% tax on Californians worth over $1 billion, passes on Election Day on Nov. 3. According to a filing released with its third-quarter earnings, Meta will issue non-voting Class C shares starting in January, and Zuckerberg can sell or transfer up to 20% of the shares granted to him without affecting his majority voting control. The filing says Zuckerberg’s leadership is crucial to the company’s growth and its AI ambitions, including Meta Superintelligence Labs. Most of the tech industry opposes the measure, while a recent Citrin-Politico poll found 46% in favor and 43% against, suggesting it may fall short of the majority support it needs.
- Nasdaq sell-off: A momentum unwind 'for the record books'
Matt Stucky, chief portfolio manager for equities at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management, calls Thursday’s sell-off in the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) a momentum unwind “for the record books.” He says the market spent the first half of 2026 driven by a beta and momentum trade led by semiconductors, but in the third quarter, as rates rose, money shifted into quality stocks. He does not think the sell-off is justified by fundamentals, arguing that institutional portfolio managers swapping out of factor positions can drag down whole baskets of stocks. In semiconductors, spot rental rates for Nvidia Blackwell chips are higher than a month ago, showing tightening compute supply, even as financing costs rise and investors worry about neocloud business models and the rising cost of insuring their bonds.
- Dune launches real-time data feeds covering 200 onchain trading venues
Blockchain analytics platform Dune has launched real-time market data feeds covering more than 200 onchain trading venues, aiming to bring this data into the systems of traditional financial institutions. The feeds draw trade data from 12 blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana and Base, about one second after execution, covering both spot trading on decentralized exchanges and perpetual futures on Hyperliquid and Lighter. Early clients include quant funds, market makers, asset managers and bank trading desks, which use the data to assess liquidity and compare prices, though Dune did not name them. Meanwhile, the tokenized stock market has grown sharply, with distributed value reaching $3.58 billion, but 16 companies, including Microsoft, Alphabet and Goldman Sachs, have objected to their shares being traded on OKXICE’s proposed platform, and liquidity remains fragmented.
