HIVE Digital Mined 89 BTC In February, Growing HODL Portfolio To 2,620 BTC Valued At $220M

Earlier this month, top executives from South Korea&#8217;s shipbuilding conglomerate Hyundai Heavy Industries Group and Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) met to push forward AI-driven shipyard innovation and future defense capabilities.
What Happened: HD Hyundai executive vice Chairman Chung Kisun visited Washington, D.C., to meet with Palantir CEO Alex Karp and discuss the companies&#8217; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/09/28943372/palantir-hyundai-consolidate-partnership-expanding-into-shipbuilding">ongoing collaboration on building</a> an AI-powered shipyard.
The two leaders reviewed the progress of their &#8220;Future of Shipyard&#8221; (FOS) initiative, launched in 2021, and explored potential defense-related applications of artificial intelligence.
According to HD Hyundai, the companies agreed that AI-based defense solutions could play a pivotal role in national security strategies for both South Korea and the U.S.&nbsp;
Chung's visit comes as part of his U.S. tour to attend CERA Week, the major global energy conference taking place in Houston from March 10–14.

Why It's Important: The FOS project aims to complete the construction of an intelligent, autonomous shipyard by 2030, targeting a 30% boost in productivity and a 30% reduction in construction time.
In addition, the companies are co-developing an unmanned surface vessel (USV) named &#8220;TENEBRIS,&#8221; and collaborating through HD Hyundai Infracore.
This deepening partnership comes at a time of strong momentum for Palantir. Last month, the company reported <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/02/43449486/palantir-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-us-revenue-up-52-customer-count-up-43-strong-guidance-this-is-a-new-phase-unlike-anything-that-has-come-before">fourth-quarter revenue</a> of $827.52 million, beating analyst expectations of $775.91 million.&nbsp;
With this, Palantir has topped analyst projections for six consecutive quarters, with U.S. revenue rising 52% year-over-year. Its U.S. commercial business surged 64%, while government revenue increased 45%.
Meanwhile, on Sunday, VOA <a href="https://www.voanews.com/a/trump-pledges-to-resurrect-shipbuilding-as-china-seen-outpacing-us-/8004070.html">reported</a> that the U.S. Navy's fleet is shrinking despite efforts to expand, with more ships being decommissioned than built. Meanwhile, China's fleet is rapidly growing.
Major shipbuilders like BAE Systems and Huntington Ingalls Industries are operating below capacity due to inconsistent Navy contracts and budget delays. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has vowed to create a new White House office to boost U.S. military and commercial shipbuilding.
Price Action: Palantir shares closed 5.52% higher at $84.90 on Friday but dipped 0.098% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp Meets Hyundai Vice Chair to Enhance AI Shipyard, Defense Collaboration Amid Trump's Call for US Shipbuilding Revival

On Sunday, Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) services chief Eddy Cue shared insights into Apple TV+'s selective content strategy while praising the global success of &#8220;Severance," calling it one of the most culturally impactful shows of recent years.
What Happened: During a panel at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, Cue joined actor-director Ben Stiller for a wide-ranging discussion on the breakout success of Severance and Apple TV+'s content approach.
"It's been a long time since we've seen a show capture the imagination like this," Cue said of Severance, which Apple says is now its <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/02/43855319/apple-stock-set-for-streaming-lift-severance-breaks-record-after-x-ads-tim-cook-promo">most-watched series ever</a> on the platform.
Despite having early access to episodes, Cue admitted he still waits for each weekly drop: "I tend to wait… I just love the storytelling."

Cue emphasized Apple TV+'s strategy of focusing on quality over quantity. "We're not going to throw 20 shows up against the wall and hope that one sticks," he said. "The ones that we do — they all need to stick. Otherwise, we have nothing else."

Why It's Important: Cue's remarks highlight Apple's continued focus on prestige programming in a crowded streaming landscape.
Rather than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/streaming">emulate rivals like</a> Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) with a high-volume output, as Cue highlighted, Apple TV+ plans to carve out a niche with select, critically acclaimed titles.
Severance, created by Dan Erickson and directed by Stiller, explores a dystopian workplace where employees are surgically separated from their personal lives.
With appearances by Adam Scott, Patricia Arquette, and Christopher Walken, Severance is shaping up to be Apple TV+'s flagship franchise.
Now in its second season, the series has earned critical acclaim and a cult following. Apple has already confirmed a third season is in development.
Unlike Netflix shows that drop all episodes at once for binge-watching, &#8220;Severance&#8221; follows a weekly release schedule, with its season 2 finale set for March 21.
Apple&#8217;s streaming service costs $9.99 per month, making it one of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/07/40014040/apple-to-follow-netflix-disney-ad-supported-appletv-streaming-plan-could-launch-soon">more affordable ad-free options</a> available.
Price Action: Apple&#8217;s stock ended Friday at $239.07, gaining 1.59%. It later slipped 0.15% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed some improvement in the overall market sentiment, while the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Friday.
U.S. stocks settled higher on Friday, with the Dow Jones index gaining more than 200 points during the session. However, the index recorded losses last week.
The S&amp;P 500 recorded its worst week since September, falling 3.1% last week. The Dow declined 2.4%, while the Nasdaq Composite tumbled 3.5% during the week.
On the economic data front, the February jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, released Friday, showed a moderate increase in employment and also a slight increase in the unemployment rate.
The U.S. economy added 151,000 jobs in February, up from a downwardly revised 125,000 in January, but below expectations of 160,000, as tracked by Trading Economics. The unemployment rate ticked unexpectedly higher to 4.1%, above the 4.0% expected.
Genesco Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GCO#NYSE">GCO</a>) shares dipped over 16% on Friday after the company reported worse-than-expected fourth-quarter financial results. American Public Education Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APEI#NASDAQ">APEI</a>) shares surged 22% after the company reported better-than-expected quarterly financial results.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with utilities, information technology and energy stocks recording the biggest gains on Friday. However, consumer staples and financial stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 223 points to 42,801.72 on Friday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.55% to 5,770.20, while the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.70% at 18,196.22 during Friday's session.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) and Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTN#NYSE">MTN</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 20.5, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Friday, versus a prior reading of 17.8.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Dow Gains Over 200 Points But Records Weekly Loss: Fear Among Investors Eases But Greed Index Remains In 'Extreme Fear' Zone

Spanish banking heavyweight Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BBA#NYSE">BBA</a>), better known as&nbsp;BBVA, said Monday it secured regulatory consent to launch trading services for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) in the country.
What Happened: BBVA received approval from Spain&#8217;s&nbsp;securities regulator, Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, to offer trading services for the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, a Reuters report said. The bank, the second-largest in Spain after Banco Santander, is gearing up to introduce&nbsp;a service that will allow&nbsp;its customers to purchase, sell, and manage transactions securely via its app.
This move by BBVA comes on the heels of similar initiatives by other European banks.

BioNTech, Oracle And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Monday

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) will join the S&amp;P 100 index, S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices announced Friday, as the data analytics firm continues its remarkable post-election rally.
What Happened: &#8220;Palantir is proud to be admitted into the S&amp;P 100. Onwards,&#8221; the company stated Sunday on X.
The Denver-based company will replace Dow Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOW#NYSE">DOW</a>) in the index effective Mar. 24, coinciding with the quarterly rebalance. Intuitive Surgical Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISRG#NASDAQ">ISRG</a>) and ServiceNow Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOW#NYSE">NOW</a>) will also join the S&amp;P 100, replacing The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KHC#NASDAQ">KHC</a>) and Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>).
Palantir has emerged as the top-performing S&amp;P 500 stock since President Donald Trump&#8216;s November election victory, surging nearly 60% to $84.82. This represents an annualized return exceeding 184%, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44202991/best-and-worst-performing-sp-500-stocks-since-trumps-election-win">according to Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Market analysts attribute Palantir&#8217;s meteoric rise to its artificial intelligence capabilities and CEO Alex Karp&#8216;s support for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44202991/best-and-worst-performing-sp-500-stocks-since-trumps-election-win">government efficiency initiatives</a>.

Why It Matters: Recent analyst assessments present a mixed outlook. While the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> stands at $70.30 among 25 analysts, the three most recent ratings from Wedbush, Loop Capital, and Citigroup average $123.67, implying a potential upside of nearly 46%.

Palantir Joins S&P 100 After AI-Driven Rally, Stock Surges Almost 60% Since Trump Victory

The cryptocurrency market capped last week on a sour note after Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) crashed to $80,000 on Sunday evening. While the broader market crashed, investors sought refuge in gold-backed coins.&nbsp;
What happened: Bitcoin Cash topped the gainers' list, returning nearly 11% to its holders in a week where blue-chip coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) fell 10% and 15%, respectively.
Bitcoin Cash is a result of a hard fork of the original Bitcoin blockchain in 2017 and is considered an affordable alternative to the apex cryptocurrency.
Physical gold-backed cryptocurrencies such as Tether Gold and PAX Gold were among the safe bets amid the downturn, yielding 2% and 1.70%, respectively.

Overall, the total cryptocurrency market capitalization contracted 12% over the week to $2.70 trillion.&nbsp;

Reported Earlier, Japan Adjusted Current Account For January 1.94T Vs. 1.97T Est.; 2.73T Prior

Two of Wall Street&#8217;s most influential figures took significant financial actions just days before a major market downturn, raising questions about market timing and insider knowledge.
What Happened: JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon sold $234 million worth of JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) stock on Feb 20, according to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The sale involved approximately 866,361 shares at around $269.83 per share through various family trusts and LLCs.
Days later, Warren Buffett&#8216;s Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) announced a record $334 billion cash balance, suggesting potential caution <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43904932/warren-buffett-favors-5-treasury-bills-over-buybacks-as-berkshire-hathaways-cash-pile-surges-the-rate-of-change-thats-most-telling-says-lawrence-mcdonald">about market valuations</a>.
Over the next 18 days following these moves, the Nasdaq 100 crashed 8.83%, with JPM stock falling over 9.63% in the same period.
Dimon&#8217;s trades have historically served as leading market indicators. During the pandemic in May 2020, he publicly <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/26/jamie-dimon-says-jpmorgan-is-a-very-valuable-company-at-these-prices.html">stated</a> JPM was &#8220;very valuable&#8221; amid the market panic, with the stock surging 41% higher within three weeks—event traders dubbed the &#8220;Dimon Bottom.&#8221;
These moves coincide with broader market concerns about the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44212386/stock-futures-drop-as-reverse-trump-trade-takes-holdpeter-schiff-says-market-shift-long-overdue-and-will-likely-continue-for-a-decade">economic outlook and policy direction</a>. Futures dropped Sunday evening, with Nasdaq-100 futures falling 0.80% to 20,068.25. The previous week saw the S&amp;P 500 decline 3.10% and Nasdaq Composite drop 3.45%.
Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Chair Robyn Denholm recently sold about $33.7 million in stock, according to an SEC filing on Monday. Since the transaction on Dec. 2, the stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44099647/tesla-chair-robyn-denholm-sells-over-30-million-in-shares-as-stock-drops-nearly-3-amid-trump-tariff-concerns">has dropped 30.69%</a>.

Why It Matters: Economic concerns have intensified as President Donald Trump described the economy as going through &#8220;a period of transition&#8221; when questioned about recession possibilities. Bond market signals have raised alarm bells, with investors moving into short-dated Treasuries amid anticipation of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44212386/stock-futures-drop-as-reverse-trump-trade-takes-holdpeter-schiff-says-market-shift-long-overdue-and-will-likely-continue-for-a-decade">potential Federal Reserve rate cuts</a>.
Buffett recently characterized tariffs as &#8220;an act of war&#8221; that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44122159/warren-buffett-calls-tariffs-an-act-of-war-warns-they-function-as-a-tax-on-goods-amid-market-turmoil">functions as a consumer tax</a>. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has warned that tariffs could reduce corporate earnings by 1-2% for every 5% tariff increase, potentially triggering a 5% S&amp;P 500 decline.
Despite market uncertainty, Buffett maintains his long-term bullishness on American companies, stating, &#8220;A majority of any money I manage will always be in the United States.&#8221;

Jamie Dimon Cashed Out $234 Million In JPMorgan Stock, Warren Buffett Stockpiled $334 Billion In Cash — Weeks Later, Markets Crashed. Coincidence?

In an effort to mock President Donald Trump&#8217;s declaration, renowned economist Peter Schiff declared his own Strategic Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) Reserve on Friday, promising not to sell any of it.
What Happened: Schiff took to X to explain the structure of the reserve. 
&#8220;Just like the U.S. government, I&#8217;m developing a budget-neutral strategy for acquiring my Bitcoin at no incremental cost,&#8221; Schiff said, taunting the Trump administration&#8217;s plan for acquiring more BTC.
Schiff also posted the address of the so-called reserve and invited contributions from his followers.

Schiff clarified that none of the Bitcoins in the reserve will be sold, similar to the structure of the U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. 
&#8220;It will show why a Bitcoin reserve is a bad idea. I&#8217;m going down with the ship, so others never get on board,&#8221; he added.
According to on-chain <a href="https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/btc/3CfJ9FqLPEWHnqf9PD5EWXTby8qYQ66BRX">data</a>, the address had zero Bitcoin balance as of this writing, with the entirety of the received stash worth $4,452.17 transferred to a different address.

Why It Matters: Schiff&#8217;s announcement follows his recent criticism of the U.S. government&#8217;s decision to create a Bitcoin strategic reserve.

Bitcoin tumbled to $80,000 Sunday evening due to concerns around Trump&#8217;s trade policies, sparking a ripple effect across the broader industry.

Mario Day Bonanza: Nintendo Offers $349 Switch Deal, Super Nintendo World Sweepstakes, And Talking Mario Alarm Clocks

A Beechcraft Bonanza carrying five people crashed in a parking lot in Lititz, Pennsylvania, near a retirement village south of Lancaster Airport, on Sunday afternoon, according to Federal Aviation Administration officials. All passengers survived and were transported to hospitals for treatment.
Air traffic control recordings revealed the pilot reported &#8220;an open door&#8221; and requested to return for landing shortly before the crash, <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/small-plane-crashes-pennsylvania/story?id=119615364">reported</a> ABC News. Despite being cleared to return, controllers soon instructed the pilot to &#8220;pull up&#8221; moments before the aircraft went down around 3 p.m.
Collin Rugg, owner of Trending Politics, shared a clip of the plane crash on X.
According <a href="https://apnews.com/article/plane-crash-lancaster-airport-pennsylvania-97c3834637bd62a8eb6a0f8e8b981274">to</a> the Associated Press, approximately a dozen parked cars were damaged, and residents of Brethren Village were briefly advised to shelter in place as a precaution, according to Duane Fisher, police chief of Manheim Township.<a href="https://apnews.com/article/97c3834637bd62a8eb6a0f8e8b981274?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>

Small Plane Crashes In Pennsylvania Retirement Facility Parking Lot After Pilot Reports 'Open Door'

Influential cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez anticipated a significant rebound for Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) despite the market slump on Sunday.
What Happened:&nbsp;Martinez, known for spotting chart patterns and issuing price predictions, said in an X post that Dogecoin was nearing a critical&nbsp;support level at the lower&nbsp;boundary of the ascending channel. 
&#8220;Holding above $0.16 could fuel&nbsp;a strong rebound,&#8221; the analyst projected.
An ascending channel pattern is a bullish continuation pattern that suggests that the bullish trend is likely to continue after a period of consolidation.

Martinez also drew attention to the surge in whale interest for the dog-themed cryptocurrency over the last few days. 
About 1.7 billion tokens, worth $290 million at prevailing prices, were snapped by the largest DOGE whales in the last 72 hours, potentially paving the way for the next breakout.
The finding was corroborated by IntoTheBlock, which <a href="https://app.intotheblock.com/">showed </a>a 41% jump in DOGE transactions valued at over $100,000 in the last 24 hours.

Dogecoin Plunges 9% But Top Analyst Believes Meme Coin Could Stage A 'Strong' Rebound In Case This Happens

A former Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) executive has accused the company and CEO Mark Zuckerberg of going to extraordinary lengths—including enabling censorship and offering data access—to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/23/07/33097839/mark-zuckerbergs-chants-against-china-proves-costly-for-his-metaverse-ambitions-in-country">gain a foothold in China</a>.
What Happened: In a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35867623/meta-whistleblower-alleges-that-his-repeated-warnings-to-mark-zuckerberg-about-teen-safety-issues-on">whistleblower complaint</a> filed with the SEC in April, Sarah Wynn-Williams, Meta's former global policy director for China, made these allegations.
She stated that the company, formerly Facebook, developed a China-specific censorship system in 2015 and proposed installing a "chief editor" to manage and potentially shut down content during periods of social unrest.
The 78-page whistleblower complaint, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/03/09/meta-china-censorship-facebook-mark-zuckerberg/">reviewed</a> by The Washington Post, claims Meta was prepared to give the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) oversight of all Facebook content in China and store user data locally—making it more accessible to government surveillance.

"One of the top priorities for President Trump is the West winning this [AI] critical race and yet for many years Meta has been working hand in glove with the Chinese Communist Party, briefing them on the latest technological developments and lying about it," stated Wynn-Williams.
In a response to the publication, Meta spokesperson Andy Stone said that the company "ultimately opted not to go through with the ideas we'd explored," and that this was "widely reported beginning a decade ago."
Meta did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.
Why It's Important: The complaint underscores long-running concerns about Big Tech's willingness to compromise on free expression and privacy in pursuit of market access.
Earlier this year in January, Meta agreed to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/01/43325503/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-pays-trump-25-million-to-settle-lawsuit-over-facebook-instagram-ban-after-jan-6-riot-a-big-year-for-redefining-our-relationships-with-governments">$25 million settlement</a> with President Donald Trump over his suspension from Facebook and Instagram. Trump's 2021 lawsuit alleged that Meta and other tech companies engaged in improper censorship.
Since the beginning of the year, Meta has reportedly modified its products and policies in line with Trump&#8217;s political stance and directives. Meta&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42960291/metas-content-moderation-changes-alarm-advertisers-as-zuckerberg-aligns-with-trump-and-musk">content moderation updates</a> have also raised concerns among advertisers.
Last month, Zuckerberg visited the White House to <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43551024/mark-zuckerberg-visits-white-house-for-advancing-american-tech-leadership-abroad-as-meta-ceo-continues-to-strengthen-ties-with-trump">discuss how Meta can support</a> and promote American tech leadership overseas.
Price Action: Meta&#8217;s stock ended Friday at $625.66, down 0.36%. In after-hours trading, it slipped another 0.23%. Year to date, Meta has gained 4.41%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Stock Futures Drop As 'Reverse Trump Trade' Takes Hold—Peter Schiff Says Market Shift 'Long Overdue' And Will Likely Continue For A Decade

On Sunday, Bill Ackman responded to a post by David Sacks regarding the U.S. involvement in Ukraine. Ackman questioned the implications of allowing Russia to control Ukraine, emphasizing the strategic importance of Ukraine&#8217;s resources.
What Happened: Ackman posed a rhetorical question, asking if it would be beneficial for the U.S. to let Russia dominate Ukraine and its valuable resources, including rare earths and agriculture. He further inquired about the potential consequences if Russia were to expand its influence over Eastern Europe.
Ackman asked, &#8220;Once Russia has Ukraine, do we let them take the rest of Eastern Europe?&#8221;

Sacks had previously posted on X that the U.S. should &#8220;never have gotten involved in Ukraine.&#8221; He claimed that the military-industrial complex profit and so did the family of former President Joe Biden, but Ukraine suffered.

In response to Ackman, Sacks countered that Ukraine&#8217;s neutrality from 1991 to 2014 did not cause issues for the U.S. and criticized the decision to involve Ukraine in NATO and support a coup in 2014.

"There&#8217;s now a new gap open up to ~$86,000. There&#8217;s also still the gap from way before open around ~$77,000, which didn&#8217;t close entirely last time around. So keep an eye out for those levels this week, " the analyst remarked.
CME gaps are the differences in price between the closing price on a given trading day and the opening price on the following trading day on a Bitcoin futures chart.&nbsp;

The fact that we&#39;re making these massive gaps on a weekly basis now just shows how choppy and volatile the current environment has been. There&#39;s now a new gap open up to ~$86K. There&#39;s also still the gap from way before open around ~$77K… <a href="https://t.co/D0ohrpEY0c">pic.twitter.com/D0ohrpEY0c</a>
