Weekly: Tariff Tensions Test Markets Ahead of Big Bank Earnings
Last Week's RecapU.S. Market - A dramatic Sell-offIndexes: The week finished weak after a dramatic Friday sell-off.

Big-Tech’s PerformanceMacro Headlines This Week:The U.S. government shutdown continues to ripple through the economy. Since entering shutdown mode on October 1, select federal agencies have halted normal operations, delaying data releases and curtailing government contracts and project spending. Key economic indicators—like employment and manufacturing reports—are proving hard to release on time, reducing market visibility. That said, CPI data is still slated for release on October 24, thanks to the Labor Department recalling some staff to compile it (to avoid unduly influencing the Fed).

$Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF(SCHD)$ I opened 1.0 share(s) $Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF(SCHD)$ , When the markets are down SCHD provides a resilient, income generating anchor.

🌟🌟🌟Last Friday felt like a thunderclap across the crypto sky . One moment Bitcoin was basking in its USD 125k glory . The next moment Bitcoin plunged into USD 110k abyss, rattled by Trump's 100% tariff bombshell. Exchanges froze. Order books locked. Over USD 9.5 billion in liquidations swept away dreams and leverage alike. It was sudden , severe and systemic - the very definition of a Black Swan event . But here is the twist: even in the chaos , conviction flickered . Bitcoin held the USD 100k line , a psychological fortress. ETFs inflow did not reverse. They accelerated - as if institutions saw not fear but a great buying opportunity. Ethereum closed stronger than it opened , a quiet signal of resilience . The Fed's dovish stance remains and rate
