Bitcoin Records Its Worst Drop Since 2022’s Crash (And September Jobs Report Sends Mixed Signals)
Description
Stocks plunged Thursday despite Nvidia delivering blowout earnings, with the Nasdaq falling 2.15% and volatility spiking to April highs. Nvidia posted $57 billion in revenue and strong guidance—but shares still sank, signaling investor anxiety over AI valuations. The September jobs report showed 119,000 new jobs and rising unemployment at 4.4%, a mixed signal for the Fed as it considers future rate cuts. Bitcoin fell 3.4%, marking a 23% monthly drop—its worst since 2022—as ETF outflows and leveraged liquidations rattled crypto markets. Coinbase, MicroStrategy, and Marathon Digital slumped alongside the broader risk-off sentiment. Walmart jumped 6.5% after raising guidance and announcing a Nasdaq move, while Topgolf Callaway sold a majority stake in its entertainment business for $1.1 billion to refocus on golf equipment. And Waymo announced plans to test its robotaxis in Minneapolis, Tampa, and New Orleans, aiming for full driverless rollout next year.
