Bitcoin slipped to $73,558 (-1.06%) as risk assets diverged — equities rallied on ceasefire optimism while crypto faded. ETH down 0.76% in sympathy.

The Trump regulator dropping the Winklevoss case should be tailwind, but BTC dominance at 57.7% with falling prices says new flows aren't arriving. Crypto trades like a stale long here, not a fresh bid.

$72,000 is the line that turns this from chop into a real downside test. ETF flow data Friday; any positive headline on the Genius Act/regulation push could re-anchor. Resistance $75,500.

Microsoft surged 3.47% to $426.99, the day's mega-cap leader on a multibillion-dollar Pentagon software deal report from Dell. Azure/AI demand stack stays in play.

MSFT is monetizing every AI angle — government, enterprise, OpenAI partnership. The Pentagon deal validates Azure's defense vertical, the highest-margin durable revenue stream available to a hyperscaler.

Whether the deal headline gets confirmed/expanded. $430 is the breakout level; clean print opens $440. Support $420. AI capex commentary from peers will matter into next earnings.
