Today's jobs report, the latest evidence that the labor market is softening just a bit, just as President Trump's policies raise some concerns about the broader economy. Plus, Bitcoin bearing losses this morning, following initial declines after President Trump signed in an order creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve and additional stockpile of other digital assets.

This order coming ahead of the gathering of crypto executives at the White House later on this afternoon where they're expected to meet with President Trump and the White House cryptozar David Sachs to discuss the industry's outlook. And signs of optimism for the AI trade. Broadcom shares surging to the upside by the most in three months after the company gave an upbeat forecast that was driven by strong demand on AI spending, a sign of relief for the trade that has been under a bit of pressure as of late.
