Trader Notes: Crypto Bully <a href="https://x.com/BullyDCrypto/status/1932047416792166806">shared</a> a simple, yet effective Monday trading strategy built around three key pillars:
Use the Weekly Open – A reclaim of this level can signal potential longs, while a rejection or breakdown suggests short setups.
Mark the Weekend Range – Identify Saturday–Sunday highs and lows to define short-term boundaries.
Watch Open Interest (OI) – Entry signals often emerge when OI builds up and then flushes.
According to <a href="https://x.com/santimentfeed/status/1932116013476204605">Santiment</a>, Bitcoin's sharp bounce from near $100,000 back to $108,000 has sparked a retail FOMO wave, with the second-largest spike in crowd excitement seen in two weeks. Just days earlier, panic selling had dominated, but now sentiment has flipped.
Yet, in crypto's emotion-driven market, surging retail optimism is often a contrarian indicator. Historical patterns show that when retail sentiment gets euphoric, caution may be warranted.
Rekt Capital <a href="https://x.com/rektcapital/status/1932121659168731197">noted</a> that $104,400 has held as weekly support for four consecutive weeks. He <a href="https://x.com/rektcapital/status/1932123282041454878">sees</a> only one major weekly resistance between current levels and a potential return to price discovery mode for BTC.
Stockmoney Lizards added that Bitcoin's structure is looking increasingly bullish, highlighting ongoing short liquidations and a possible squeeze setup. "Once it fires," he said, "expect a large green candle."

From Benzinga's Cannabis Capital Conference: Bianchi & Brandt Co-Founder, Laura Bianchi Says Cross-State M&A And License Deal Structures Are Complicated, Says Process Can Be Slow And All Parties Should Be On The Same Page

A silver &#8220;supercycle&#8221; may already be underway, as the structural market tightness and resurgent investor interest in the grey metal set the stage for a potential breakout above the all-time high of $50 per ounce last reached in 2011, according to Otavio Costa, macro strategist at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/expert-ideas">hedge fund Crescat Capital.</a>
"Silver is just catching up to gold," Costa said in an exclusive interview with Benzinga, noting that the metal's decade-long underperformance is poised to reverse.
Since early June, silver prices have surged over 10%, breaking above $36.80 on Monday and reaching levels last seen in February 2012. The iShares Silver Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLV#NYSE">SLV</a>) has now risen 25% year-to-date through June 9, perfectly matching SPDR Gold Trust&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) performance.
Costa indicated silver is now entering a critical phase that could resemble historical boom cycles.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Silver-To-Gold Ratio Signals More Room To Run</h3>
When gold leads, silver then follows. 
Silver is "the next one in line," Costa said.
The grey metal is trading at roughly 100 ounces per ounce of gold—a level Costa calls historically unsustainable and a clear setup for a sharp reversal.
"We've only seen this a few times in history," he said. "Every time, the ratio eventually collapses."
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">The gold-to-silver ratio is now breaking down as silver accelerates and begins to catch up with gold. Just a month ago, investors were telling me this time was different — that the ratio wouldn't revert and we were witnessing a structural shift. But notice the trend.… <a href="https://t.co/r4JE7gAoPt">pic.twitter.com/r4JE7gAoPt</a>
&mdash; Otavio (Tavi) Costa (@TaviCosta) <a href="https://twitter.com/TaviCosta/status/1932101773604307231?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 9, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
According to the expert, silver is now transitioning from being viewed strictly as an industrial commodity to being increasingly perceived as a monetary hedge—just as gold demand from central banks accelerates.
"Silver has been a monetary metal in the past, and once it starts moving higher, it becomes less of an industrial and much more of a monetary metal," he said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Silver At $50? The Next Key Resistance</h3>
Costa told Benzinga that the metal's next technical battleground is the $50 threshold—a level reached during the 2011 rally and in the late 1970s Hunt Brothers episode.
"There's no such thing as a triple top," he said. 
"Once silver breaks $50, we enter price discovery. Nobody knows where it goes from there."

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Dynamics Say Demand Sharply Outweighs Supply </h3>
Costa highlighted the lack of new silver discoveries and project development. "There are no major supply additions coming that will significantly alter the market in the next few years," he said.
At the same time, industrial demand—especially for solar panels—is rising rapidly.
"The demand factors have changed quite significantly," Costa said.
Solar now represents 15% to 17% of global silver demand, a sharp increase from the low single-digit percentages of just a few years ago.
Crescat Capital owns San Cristobal, one of the largest silver mines in the world, and Costa highlighted unusual pricing behavior in the physical market.
He said Chinese buyers have been paying premiums of $1 to $3 per ounce on silver concentrate over the past 6 to 12 months.
"That premium wasn't reflected in the futures market—but now we're starting to see it," he said.
"I'm already invested in silver. But you never have enough of it."

The acquisition coincides with the launch of Watsonx AI Labs. According to IBM, Seek AI's software will become a foundational part of the lab's technological framework.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">IBM Aims To Turn Manhattan Into A Global AI Nucleus</h2>
Founded in 2021 by former data scientist Sarah Nagy, Seek AI builds tools that allow users to interact with complex datasets using natural language prompts, automatically converting them into structured query language queries and generating insights,<a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/ibm-strengthens-ai-investment/"> </a><a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/06/02/ibm-acquires-data-analysis-startup-seek-ai-opens-ai-accelerator-in-nyc/">TechCrunch</a> reports.

</ul>
IBM said in the statement that Seek AI's natural language platform will be integrated into its AI development ecosystem, enabling startups and partners to build applications with conversational data capabilities.
The newly launched Watsonx AI Labs is located in Manhattan's Flatiron District at One Madison, where IBM says it plans to build and test next-generation AI systems with engineers, researchers, and startups.
According to IBM, the lab will co-create enterprise-ready AI applications spanning cybersecurity, customer service, and open-source frameworks. The facility will also focus on domain-specific AI solutions and prioritize responsible governance, a rising concern among enterprise adopters.
New York City's growing role in AI development factored heavily into IBM's decision to base the lab there. According to<a href="https://www.technyc.org/nyc-tech-snapshot-2025"> Tech: NYC</a>, the city hosts over 2,000 AI startups and experienced a 25% increase in AI workforce growth from 2022 to 2023. Since 2019, AI startups in NYC have collectively raised $27 billion in funding.
IBM mentioned in the statement that it also plans to collaborate with local universities and research institutions to nurture future talent and expand its innovation footprint.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Relocation And Investor Backing Strengthen IBM's AI Expansion</h2>
Seek AI had previously secured nearly $10 million in backing from investors such as Battery Ventures, Conviction Partners, and NJP Ventures, according to TechCrunch.
Once the acquisition is finalized, IBM says the startup will relocate its operations to One Madison, aligning itself physically and strategically with IBM's flagship Manhattan-based Watsonx AI Labs.
&#8220;By anchoring this mission in New York City, we are investing in a diverse, world‑class talent pool and a vibrant community whose innovations have long shaped the tech landscape,&#8221; Ritika Gunnar, IBM's general manager of data and AI, said in the statement.

IBM said that it will provide select startups inside the lab with mentorship, access to technical talent, and financial support through its $500 million Enterprise AI Venture Fund. These startups will be able to test, refine, and deploy AI applications built with tools like Seek AI's natural language platform. Companies successfully building enterprise-ready solutions may be eligible for long-term partnership and global amplification via IBM Ventures.
Julie Samuels, president and CEO of Tech: NYC, said in IBM&#8217;s statement that the move underscores New York's strength as an innovation hub and a magnet for enterprise AI development. She added that the initiative could be transformative for local communities and the broader tech economy.
With Seek AI's technology now in-house and the Watsonx AI Labs underway, IBM appears committed to shaping the future of enterprise AI from the epicenter of one of the world's most dynamic cities.

'US, China Trade Talks to Continue Tuesday After Day One Wraps' - Bloomberg News

Video game retailer GameStop Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) could continue upwards momentum with a strong first-quarter financial report Tuesday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">after market close.</a>
Here's a look at the analyst estimates and key items to watch.
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect GameStop to report first-quarter sales of $754.2 million, down from $881.8 million in last year's first quarter, according<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0609"> to Benzinga Pro data.</a>
The company has missed analyst estimates for sales in six straight quarters and eight of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect GameStop to report a profit of 4 cents per share, an improvement on a loss of 12 cents per share in last year's first quarter.
The company beat analyst estimates for earnings per share in the fourth quarter and has beaten analyst estimates in five of the last 10 quarters overall. The first quarter loss last fiscal year was the only loss in GameStop's four fiscal quarters last year.
A strong first-quarter report and positive earnings per share could be a strong start for the company.

Key Items to Watch: GameStop's report comes after several positive news items sent shares higher.
The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45643177/gamestop-buys-4710-bitcoins-heres-why-markets-are-watching">announced the purchase</a> of 4,710 Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) last month, which came after the company announced plans to add cryptocurrency to its balance sheet.
GameStop has also been in the spotlight with strong momentum due to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44984453/gamestop-stock-rises-amid-switch-2-preorders-whats-going-on">release of the Nintendo Switch 2 </a>gaming console from Nintendo (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NTDOY#OTC">NTDOY</a>). GameStop stores were open at midnight for the June 5 release of the console with long lines and sellouts reported at locations across the country.
The bad news for GameStop investors is that the gaming company has typically reported financial results without providing guidance, holding a conference call, or communicating with shareholders.
Shareholders would likely love to hear an update on the Bitcoin purchase and whether more cryptocurrency purchases are coming with the company's cash. They would also love to hear how Nintendo Switch 2 demand could factor into second-quarter results, as the first quarter will cover February, March, and April.
Instead, investors may have to save their optimism for future quarterly results and focus on what the company does report.
One item that has been present in recent reports is the company's growing Collectibles revenue, which comes as the retailer ramps up supply and marketing for trading cards and grading services. This comes as hardware and software sales for the gaming market have faced pressure as gamers turn to digital offerings.
A strong report could send GameStop shares higher, extending the recent streak of positive momentum. However, if details on Bitcoin or the Nintendo Switch 2 remain limited, investors may choose to stay on the sidelines.
GME Price Action: GameStop stock was up 2.1% to $30.22 on Monday, compared to a 52-week trading range of $18.73 to $35.81. However, GameStop stock is down 2.4% year-to-date in 2025.

The surge followed a positive revision from Citigroup, which maintained its Buy rating and increased its price target for the semiconductor giant from $100 to $120 per share.

Investor optimism is also buoyed by AMD's recent strategic moves.

The company recently reported strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45237261/amd-q1-earnings-revenue-eps-beat-driven-by-expanding-data-center-ai-momentum-chipmaker-expects-strong-growth-in-2025">first-quarter earnings</a> and provided an optimistic revenue forecast for the second quarter.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy AMD Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Advanced Micro Devices&#8217; case, it is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, AMD has a 52-week high of $187.28 and a 52-week low of $76.48.

CDC Advisory Committee To Review Merck's ENFLONSIA For Infant RSV Protection; Ordering Expected To Begin In July, With Shipments Delivered Before Start Of 2025-2026 RSV Season

Over 340 current and recently terminated U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) employees have publicly protested the Trump administration's deep cuts to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/national-institutes-of-health">the agency's research budget</a>.
What Happened: Reuters noted that more than 60 NIH employees signed a letter, accusing NIH leadership — including Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy — of allowing political interference to override scientific priorities.
The stakes are high, they noted, citing how patient safety is at risk and public resources are wasted.
Signatories claim in the letter that the agency has eliminated 2,100 research grants worth $9.5 billion and cut another $2.6 billion in research contracts since Trump took office in January.
The letter, also addressed to NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and members of Congress, comes ahead of Bhattacharya's scheduled testimony before the Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday.
The letter states that the cuts have halted clinical trials and left patients without oversight for experimental treatments or implanted devices.
The employees told Reuters the terminated programs represented years of work and financial investment. They warned that the cuts were made without proper review, sometimes bypassing peer evaluations in favor of political motivations.

FDA&#8217;s Top Vaccine Official Walks Out, Sparking Debate on Safety and Public Trust</a>
Why It Matters: Bhattacharya said the letter mischaracterized NIH's recent policy directions. 
Citing internal staff reports, Reuters highlighted that the Trump administration has proposed slashing NIH's budget by $18 billion next year. This would reduce it by 40% to $27 billion. Nearly 5,000 NIH employees and contractors have already been laid off under Kennedy's restructuring of U.S. health agencies.
In February, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/02/43618745/us-states-sue-national-institutes-of-health-over-4-billion-annual-cut-in-biomedical-research-grant-budget" rel="noreferrer noopener">a complaint&nbsp;was filed</a> arguing that &#8220;Without relief from NIH&#8217;s action, these institutions&#8217; cutting-edge work to cure and treat human disease will grind to a halt.&#8221;
The lawsuit also mentioned, &#8220;In issuing the Rate Change Notice, the NIH has also acted beyond its statutory authority and has failed to promulgate the change using notice and comment rulemaking.&#8221;
In March, The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) unveiled a sweeping restructuring plan to cut costs, streamline operations <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44519638/us-department-of-health-and-human-services-aligns-with-trumps-executive-order-to-cut-10k-jobs-save-18-billion" rel="noreferrer noopener">and refocus priorities</a>.

Through early retirements and other initiatives, the total number of employees will shrink from 82,000 to 62,000.

NIH Revolts: Scientists Decry Budget Cuts, RFK Jr. Political Interference, Warn Of Long-Term Public Health Damage

MP Materials Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MP#NYSE">MP</a>) shares are moving higher. The U.S. is set to engage in trade talks with China in London on Monday. Rare earth materials are expected to be a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45841817/us-listed-chinese-stocks-gain-as-us-china-trade-talks-spark-optimism">key topic of discussion</a>.
What To Know: Morgan Stanley analyst Carlos De Alba upgraded MP Materials from Equal-Weight to Overweight and raised the price target from $23 to $34 on Friday.
The analyst said MP Materials is best positioned to benefit from growing geopolitical focus on critical mineral supply chains, according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/07/morgan-stanley-upgrades-mining-stock-as-best-pick-to-play-rare-earths.html">CNBC</a>.
MP Materials operates the only rare earth mine in the U.S. at Mountain Pass, California, while China controls most of the global market for rare earth processing. De Alba noted that trade tensions have pushed mineral supply chains into focus.
In April, China imposed export restrictions on certain rare earth elements in response to tariffs introduced by President Donald Trump. While talks are ongoing, those restrictions remain in place. Notably, the U.S. depends on China for about 70% of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45841817/us-listed-chinese-stocks-gain-as-us-china-trade-talks-spark-optimism">imports for rare earth</a> elements.
Last week, Trump eased limits under the Defense Production Act, which could allow the U.S. government to offer above-market prices for rare earths. Morgan Stanley said MP is well positioned to benefit from this policy shift.
The company is also building a fully domestic supply chain and plans to begin commercial production of rare earth magnets used in electric vehicles, wind turbines and other advanced technologies. Analysts are optimistic that MP will be able to generate positive free cash flows longer term.
