The week will be dominated by earnings reports from crypto-related companies, although the fallout from the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs on Friday is also expected to ripple through the markets.
Miners including MARA Holdings (MARA) and Hut 8 (HUT) are on the list and will fuel discussions about diversifying into high-performance computing centers and AI support. Also on the AI front, Nvidia (NVDA), maker of chips for the AI industry and the world’s largest publicly traded company by market capitalization, reports earnings on Wednesday.
Also on Wednesday’s list is Circle Internet (CRCL), issuer of the second-largest stablecoin, USDC.
On the broader economic front, a number of US Federal Reserve policymakers are expected to deliver speeches in the coming days. And don’t forget the U.S.-Iran talks, which resume Thursday in Geneva, even as both sides step up their military preparations.
