Apple earnings, Binance hack, midterm elections - What’s moving markets
Apple earnings, Binance hack, and midterm elections are key market-moving catalysts.
Context
What happened: U.S. stock futures pointed higher on Monday as investors turned to a busy earnings week led by Apple's first results under new CEO John Ternus, alongside a Binance security breach, Iran conflict developments and the U.S.
Why it matters: Apple's results could test whether its product launches and AI strategy can sustain growth while memory-chip costs rise, and analysts expect rising component costs to weigh on profit growth. The Binance withdrawals highlight how quickly confidence can be tested in the cryptocurrency market after a major security incident.
Market: +1.5% today ($43.62), -41.9% YTD, 1.1x vol — as of 08:45 UTC
