- NASDAQ surges past 22,500, entering price discovery territory
- A ceasefire and tech momentum may be fueling the rally
- Bitcoin could follow as risk appetite spreads to crypto
The NASDAQ just broke above 22,500, setting a fresh all-time high. And if you’re reading this later, it may be even higher.

One potential driver? The reported ceasefire between Israel and Iran. Geopolitical stability often boosts market confidence — and tech stocks are loving it.
But let’s be real — this isn’t just about geopolitics. AI narratives, strong earnings, and months of upward pressure were already building momentum. This breakout just needed a trigger.
Now that we’re in price discovery, anything can happen. No resistance above means the market can fly — or correct just as violently.
And crypto? Historically, when traditional markets like the NASDAQ show strength, Bitcoin tends to benefit too.
Why? Because it signals a broader shift in investor sentiment — from fear to risk appetite. When capital starts flowing into tech stocks, it often bleeds into crypto next. It’s not a rule, but it’s a recurring pattern.
Bitcoin is still viewed by many as a high-beta asset — meaning it reacts more strongly when markets are optimistic.
So if risk-on continues, don’t be surprised if BTC joins the party. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves: markets remain unpredictable, and hype without discipline can wreck your portfolio.
Stick to the plan. Always.
