📊 Stocks in the US rose for the third straight day as the market continued to assess the effect of the Israeli-Hamas conflict. Bond yields fell as investors desired the safety of US Treasuries, and these falling yields helped to bolster the stock market. Today was the first day that Treasuries have been traded since the start of the Israeli-Hamas conflict, as the bond market was closed on Monday.

📊 The global Crypto market is down $1.05T via CoinMarketCap stablecoins accounting for 95.97% of the total crypto market 24-hour volume.
