Historically, April in Q2 ranks as one of the year’s top-performing stretches for risk assets, second only to December. Market sentiment improved significantly after concerns eased around the upcoming April 2nd tariff deadline, leading to one of the strongest sessions so far this year.

The Dogecoin Foundation has set up a 10 million DOGE reserve—around $1.8 million—to boost Dogecoin as a payment option, moving beyond its meme origins. Teaming with House of Doge, the foundation aims to fund development, encourage merchant adoption, and strengthen the coin’s overall utility. This announcement sparked a 10% price jump for DOGE, though it’s still down 40% in four months. Meanwhile, three DOGE ETF filings under SEC review could further open doors to institutional investment and wider market access.

Despite the recent underperformance of mega-cap names, market concentration remains at extreme levels. The top 10 stocks represent about 36% of the S&P 500’s market cap, surpassing Dot-Com Bubble peaks. Moreover, the largest U.S. stock is roughly 700 times bigger than the 75th percentile stock—a figure not seen since the 1930s. While the equal-weighted S&P 500 has outperformed the Magnificent 7 in 10 of the last 12 weeks, analysts stress the market needs a bottom in big tech.

Standard Chartered has devised a “Mag 7B” index that swaps out Tesla in favor of bitcoin—delivering higher returns and lower volatility than the original “Magnificent 7” tech index. The bank’s global head of digital assets research, Geoffrey Kendrick, found that Mag 7B outperformed Mag 7 by about 5% since December 2017 and was less volatile every single year analyzed. By treating bitcoin like a major tech stock, Kendrick says investors could gain both a hedge against traditional finance and a powerful portfolio booster.

Trump Media’s shares jumped 9% after-hours on news of a partnership with Crypto.com for a “Made in America” ETF series.

The new Truth.Fi offerings aim to boost finances by combining digital assets like bitcoin with traditional securities, pending regulatory approval. Launching internationally, the ETFs will leverage Crypto.com’s extensive user base and potentially push both platforms into a broader global spotlight.

This move allegedly aims to re-acquire BTC that was mistakenly sold under the Biden administration, suggesting involvement in the cryptocurrency market. Though details remain scarce, insiders claim this decision highlights the federal government’s evolving approach to digital assets and its willingness to make bold, strategic crypto moves.
