Power Hour Flow Dynamics

1. Tech Sector Buying Intensifies

Institutional desks are aggressively buying the afternoon tech tape, pushing the Nasdaq up 1.10% into the final stretch. The momentum is heavily insulated by semiconductor components like Broadcom, which surged following its expanded chip-supply agreement with Apple through 2031. This structural buying is completely overriding early-day job cut fears. 

2. Bitcoin Obliterates Short-Sellers

After slipping to an intraday low of $61,492 during midday consolidation, spot Bitcoin experienced a massive volume influx to jump straight back over $63,400. The dynamic shift has caught over-leveraged short positions off-guard, triggering a wave of mechanical liquidations that is driving a vertical end-of-day squeeze back toward the overnight highs. 

3. ASST Stabilizes into the Close

Tied securely to the late-afternoon crypto surge, Strive Inc (ASST) has reversed its earlier minor pullbacks to trade green at $13.14. Trading volume has reached a heavy 2.95 million shares as algorithmic funds balance their exposure to match Bitcoin’s V-shaped recovery curve ahead of the 4:00 PM ET closing bell.
