Market Snapshot — Today’s Highlights (as of December 10, 2025 10:45 AM EST)

Cryptocurrencies (BTC/USD)

Bitcoin (BTC) is trading around $92,077, up modestly over the last 24 hours, reflecting renewed interest as markets await the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy decision. The broader crypto market remains cautiously optimistic, with moderate gains among major altcoins and heightened intraday volatility as traders position ahead of key macro announcements.

Gold & Silver

Silver recently surged past $60/oz, a milestone driven by tight supply and stronger industrial demand, particularly in technology and renewable energy sectors. Gold continues to hold firm as investors seek safety amid economic uncertainty. Analysts note strong intraday buying interest, suggesting further upside potential if inflation data surprises to the upside or rate cuts are delayed.

S&P 500 (U.S. Large-Cap Equities)

The S&P 500 remains near record highs, trading with limited movement as investors await fresh guidance from the Federal Reserve. Current data shows a minor pullback within the week, though the broader uptrend remains intact. Traders report low volume as the market holds steady ahead of upcoming macroeconomic events.
