Bybit launches USDT-based stock trading with CFDs on MT5 platform
Daily top performer — Aave (AAVE)
The S&P 500 closed nearly flat at +0.03% as markets weighed a U.S. credit downgrade and tariff concerns; futures edged higher ahead of Fed remarks and earnings from Home Depot and Toll Brothers. Gold dipped to $3,230 on modest USD strength, but Moody’s US credit downgrade supported safe-haven demand, limiting losses. The Coindesk Indices, which tracks the broader crypto market, rose 3.67%, with Bitcoin and Ether up 1.57% and 5.11%, in the past 24 hours.
