What to know:
- Bitcoin surged close to $100,000 following President Trump's announcement of an impending trade deal with a major country.
- The trade deal announcement is expected at a news conference, with speculation pointing to the U.K. as the involved country.
- Bitcoin's rally is supported by improving macroeconomic conditions, including falling bond yields and a weakening dollar.
Bitcoin zoomed close to $100,000 early Thursday as President Donald Trump said a tariff deal with a “big, highly respected country” is to be announced soon.
Trump will hold a “major” trade deal news conference at 10 a.m. ET, where the announcement is supposed to be the “first of many.”
The identity of the country involved remains unclear. Still, some reports say the U.K. Easing tariffs could soften inflationary pressures and improve the backdrop for investing in crypto, tech, and other high-beta assets.
