Why are deadbeat stocks Oracle, Microsoft, and AMD suddenly the week’s best performers?

This week gave beaten-up stock names a strange new job. They stopped acting like laggards and started leading the screen. Oracle (NYSE: ORCL), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), and AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) came into Friday on track for huge weekly gains, the kind that reset charts and force traders to stop laughing at names they had written off.

Oracle rose 27% for the week, its best run since June 1999. AMD added 14% for the week, hit an all-time high on Thursday, and kept alive a 13-session winning streak that has pushed the shares up more than 42%.

Microsoft also climbed 14% in what is its best week since April 2015 after a brutal March quarter in which the software giant lost almost a quarter of its value, its worst quarter since 2008.

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) gained about 15% this week after Elon Musk said on Wednesday that the company hit a key milestone on its AI5 chip.

Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO), Micron (NASDAQ: MU), and ON Semiconductor are each up about 30% so far in April. Marvell is up 41% this month. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software ETF, or IGV, is up about 14% week to date, which puts it on track for its best week since its record week in October 2001.

The SPDR Info Tech Fund, known as XLK, hit an all-time high on Friday for the first time since October 2025 and closed at a record level after 13 straight days of gains. That fund also logged its best week since April 2025.

Hyperliquid Price Prediction: What Next as HYPE Nears $50 Resistance After Golden Cross
Hyperliquid is nearing a critical resistance level around $50 after a nice pump from a higher-low formation. Will this supply wall break this time?


Hyperliquid (HYPE) is consolidating from earlier gains, down 3.8% in the past 24 hours to trade at $43.7 per coin. Despite this, it has solidified its position as the 10th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. With a market cap of $11.19 billion, it leads its closest rival, UNUS SED LEO (LEO), by over $1.84 billion.

Earlier, HYPE was on a clear uptrend, having increased 8.51% in the past seven days. This has ensured it has the second-best growth in the past 30 days in the top 10 crypto ranking by market cap. Only Tron (TRX) has outperformed, with a 4.32% growth in this timeframe.

#Bitcoin has long been promised to function as money. In practice, it rarely does.While 99% of transactions are still speculative trading, for as long as bitcoin has been a thing it has been used to skirt governments’ economic controls. Cryptocurrencies are particularly attractive for countries facing sanctions.The Iranian government is considering charging oil tankers for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz in cryptocurrency. The reports have excited the bitcoin community with crypto markets jumping slightly in response. “Once the email arrives and Iran completes its assessment, vessels are given a few seconds to pay in bitcoin, ensuring they can’t be traced or confiscated due to sanctions”, an Iranian government spokesperson told the Financial Times.$2 million per ship – in cryptoAccording to blockchain intelligence firm TRM Labs, Iran’s armed forces, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has accepted payments from ship operators since March, charging up to US$2 million per vessel to transit the strait. Payment can be made not only in bitcoin but also in Chinese yuan or the dollar-pegged “stablecoin” tether.For shipping companies, the details remain unclear. But many ships are unlikely to set sail without assurances of safe passage from the IRGC.The US has taken a hard line. President Donald Trump has accused Iran of extortion and stated that the US would hunt down and intercept any ships in international waters that paid the Iranian tolls.The stalemate is likely to tighten an already narrow choke point. The war has reduced the passage of tankers to a trickle.Practical problemsOur research has examined how individuals and governments facing sanctions use cryptocurrencies as a way to buy and sell oil, raise hard currency and sidestep economic embargoes. Iran is no stranger to crypto shenanigans. Around 4.5% of all bitcoin mining takes place there, allowing the country to purchase imports and bypass US sanctions.Yet implementing a bitcoin-based toll sy

In Trump news

today, President Trump criticized Pope Leo XIV as "WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy" in a social media post that escalated a days-long public feud with the first American pope, who has repeatedly condemned the US-Israel war on Iran and called Trump's pre-strike threat to wipe out Iranian civilization "truly unacceptable." Summary Trump also claimed Pope Leo supports Iran having nuclear weapons, a claim the pope did not make, and said he did not want "a Pope who criticizes the President of the United States," adding that Leo had not been on anyone's list to become pope before the conclave. Pope Leo fired back from aboard a plane to Algeria: "I have no fear of the Trump administration or speaking out loudly about the message of the Gospel," and vowed to continue calling for peace regardless of White House pressure. The confrontation has drawn rebukes from European leaders including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, a Trump ally, who said it is "right and normal" for the pope to call for peace and condemned Trump's remarks as unacceptable. Trump news today centers on the most pronounced public rupture between a US president and a sitting pope in modern history, one that began with Leo's Palm Sunday call for peace during the Iran war and escalated through the week into direct personal attacks exchanged via social media post and press conference. Leo, born in Chicago and elected in April 2025, has been increasingly direct

Cardano Founder Explains Why Midnight and NIGHT Differ Fundamentally From Ripple and XRP



Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson contrasts Midnight ($NIGHT) with Ripple and $XRP, arguing that the two models differ fundamentally in how value is created and distributed.

Hoskinson made this known during a recent interview with Wendy O on “The O Show.” His commentary centers on ownership, token utility, and whether network growth directly benefits token holders.

Key Points

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson argues that Midnight ($NIGHT) and $XRP differ fundamentally in value creation and distribution.

He argues Ripple uses $XRP sales to generate capital for external investments and acquisitions, but $XRP holders never benefit from this model.

Hoskinson compares Ripple’s model to Tether’s, where value accrues mainly to a central entity.

His comments have reignited tensions with the $XRP community, raising the prospect of renewed disputes with figures like Brad Garlinghouse.

$XRP Holders Don’t Benefit From Ripple’s Value Creation Model

Speaking in response to questions about $XRP’s recent momentum, Hoskinson acknowledged the token’s visibility but challenged the underlying structure supporting its growth.

He claimed that Ripple retains significant control over $XRP supply and uses the token as a mechanism to generate capital, which it then deploys into external ventures such as acquisitions and new business lines.

According to him, this model creates a disconnect between $XRP holders and Ripple’s broader financial success. While the company expands its footprint through moves like acquiring firms such as Hidden Road or launching new products, he argues that $XRP holders do not gain ownership rights or direct financial exposure to those developments.

He further pointed to the absence of staking or yield mechanisms as evidence that $XRP’s value proposition is
