Macro-Economic Update

U.S. Manufacturing Shows Modest Growth, But Storm Clouds Loom

The S&P Global Manufacturing PMI hit 50.7 in April — beating expectations and marking a 4th month of expansion. Domestic orders rose slightly, but exports tumbled as tariffs and a weak dollar took their toll.

Jobs were cut for the first time since October, input costs surged, and inflation hit a 29-month high. Confidence? At its lowest since last August, with rising costs and weak global demand spooking businesses.

Explosive Week for Bitcoin & Ethereum Inflows – Big Money Is Back

This past week delivered one of the most explosive surges in capital inflows into major crypto wallets that we’ve seen in a long time.

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum recorded massive spikes in high-value wallet activity, signaling a strong wave of institutional or whale accumulation:

  • Bitcoin: Over 91,000 BTC flowed into large wallets in just one single day
  • Ethereum: Saw more than 550,000 ETH in daily inflows – a multi-month high

These inflows mark a renewed wave of confidence in the market. Big players are moving in again, and where the money goes, momentum often follows.

Trump, Wall Street & a $900M Crypto Bet – What Just Shook the Market

This week saw crypto collide with big finance and politics. SoftBank dropped nearly $900M into a new Bitcoin-focused firm backed by Tether and Bitfinex, while CME Group announced upcoming XRP futures, signaling deeper traditional market involvement.

Macroeconomic shifts like a weaker dollar and eased U.S.-China tensions boosted interest in digital assets. Meanwhile, Citi projected the stablecoin market could hit $4T in five years. 

The wildest twist? Donald Trump invited top holders of his meme coin to a private dinner, proving once again that anything can happen in crypto.

Key Macroeconomic Insights

Crypto Surges as Global Trade Tensions Ease, China Beats GDP Expectations, and Japan–U.S. Trade Talks Heat Up

U.S. Tariff Twist Boosts Markets
The U.S. temporarily exempted smartphones and computers from the new 125% China import tariffs — a surprise move that sent equities and crypto climbing. Investors saw it as a sign of strategic flexibility amid rising trade tensions.

China’s Economy Holds Strong
Despite tariff pressure, China’s Q1 GDP grew 5.4% YoY, matching last quarter’s pace — the strongest growth since mid-2023 and beating expectations.

Japan–U.S. Trade Talks Heat Up
Japanese officials met with U.S. counterparts in Washington to discuss trade — and in a surprise move, President Trump personally joined the talks, signaling high-level urgency and commitment.
