Power Hour

Published on August 4, 2026 at 3:31 PM

U.S. stocks are storming into the closing power hour at all-time record highs, with the S&P 500 up 1.99% at 7,751.70. Sweeping geopolitical relief and explosive artificial intelligence software earnings have triggered a massive, short squeeze across risk assets. 

⚡ Power Hour Liquidity Catalysts

  • The Strait Settlement Surge: Momentum accelerated following a statement from Qatar's Foreign Ministry confirming that U.S.-Iran diplomatic efforts to open the Strait of Hormuz are in highly progressive stages. 
  • Yield Decompression Play: Collapsing oil prices have successfully dragged down fixed-income yields, unburdening highly leveraged, small-cap equity proxies.
  • Institutional Bid Floor: Despite medium-term technical channels flashing caution, the combination of positive July ETF inflows and broader market short-covering has generated a steady, late-afternoon institutional bid underneath the digital asset sector. 

🎯 Key Session Closing Targets

  • Bitcoin (BTC): Having cleared the major $64,000 threshold, bulls are looking to cement this zone to target a multi-day retest of the $64,500 resistance block. 
  • Strive, Inc. (ASST): Trading near its daily high of $12.53, the equity is positioned to snap its immediate down-channel if it logs a close above its current $12.50 pivot line.
