Hey Ninjas 🥷 This is truly great news for the entire ecosystem. Canary Capital is about to launch INJC the staked $INJ ETF which will soon be available in the US financial market. The fund will hold spot INJ and intends to stake at least 90% of its holdings under normal circumstances. Investors will be able to buy its shares just like any other stock or ETF. No wallets, private keys or validators needed. Staking rewards (currently around 7% on @injective ) are automatically restaked within the fund meaning each share can represent an increasing amount of $INJ over time after fees. The actual tokens will be held by BitGo. The fund is also structured more like the spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs than the earlier European product (AINJ). Holding $INJ through INJC gives investors exposure to $INJ and staking returns without having to manage anything themselves. Of course for those who want to participate directly in the network vote on governance proposals or choose their own validators holding $INJ directly remains the better option. Most likely many investors will choose to do both. This is one of the most seamless and accessible ways to gain exposure to crypto staking through traditional financial markets. Think about what this means: traditional investors can now access $INJ and its staking potential through a familiar brokerage account. Another major step toward bringing @injective closer to mainstream finance. The ecosystem keeps building. 🥷

🚨 BREAKING: The "safe havens" sold off with everything else. Gold just hit a one-year low and silver fell below $50 on the same day tech stocks tumbled. 🪙📉 📊 The numbers • Spot gold fell 3.1% to $3,897 an ounce by 11:47 a.m. ET, its lowest since October 2025, per Reuters • Gold is now down about 30% from its January record of $5,595, per Reuters • Silver dropped about 6% to $49, its first time under $50 in 11 months; it's down roughly 18% in October, per Reuters/MINING.COM • It now takes 79 ounces of silver to buy one ounce of gold, vs 46 in January, per Reuters • At 12:09 p.m. ET: Nasdaq down 2.6%, S&P 500 down 1.6%, MSCI's world index down 1.4%, per Reuters • Brent crude rose 2.4% to $117.58, and traders price a more than 70% chance of a Fed hike in December, per Reuters 🗣️ What people are saying • Bears: "The sky is falling... Metals will not be able to escape the gravity well of a nasty stock correction," said metals trader Tai Wong • Bulls: Commerzbank sees forced selling and margin calls, not lost faith, and expects metals to recover; analysts say central banks tend to buy more below $4,000 • Skeptics of silver: HSBC says industrial and jewelry demand is falling and sees silver averaging $64 in 2027 ✅ The facts • Reuters, gold and metals: au.marketscreener.com/news/t… • Reuters, global markets: au.investing.com/news/econom… • MINING.COM: mining.com/gold-price-slumps… ❓ Unverified • Viral "$1 trillion wiped out in minutes" tallies: the dollar figure depends on which index and which minute you measure. Reuters reports percentage moves, not a single dollar total. 🤔 Why the numbers can mislead A "one-year low" means gold is back about where it was a year ago, not wiped out. Gold pays no interest, so when oil pushes up inflation and rate-hike bets, it gets costlier to hold. When stocks fall fast, investors often sell what's still up to cover losses. All prices are intraday and will move by the close. 🇮🇳 सोना एक साल के निचले स्तर पर, चांदी $50 से नीचे। When stocks, gold and silver all fall together, where would you park your savings? #Gold #Silver #StockMarket

Stocks Get Hammered as ES and NQ Plunge, Crude Oil Surges to $104.99, Gold Falls to $3,900 and Bonds Rally MARKET RECAP — FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 2026 The ES and NQ are getting hammered again on Friday, the final trading day of October, as another wave of selling hits technology stocks, particularly the semiconductor and artificial intelligence sectors. The selling started overnight and carried into the regular session, with the Nasdaq taking the brunt of the damage. The ES sold off to 7,613.00, down 141.25 points, or 1.82%, from Thursday's settlement of 7,754.25. The NQ plunged to 28,568.00, down 994.00 points, or 3.36%, from Thursday's settlement of 29,562.00. The Nasdaq's losses are significantly larger than those of the S&P 500, highlighting the continued selling pressure in high-valuation technology and AI-related stocks. The pressure intensified as investors digested earnings and guidance from Amazon ($AMZN) and Intel ($INTC). Investors are increasingly questioning whether the enormous amounts being invested in artificial intelligence infrastructure will generate sufficient returns. Concerns about capital spending, profitability and the sustainability of the AI boom continue to weigh on the technology sector. Crude Oil ($CL) Rallies to $104.99 While equities continue to sell off, crude oil has moved sharply higher, trading up to $104.99 a barrel. Escalating geopolitical tensions involving Iran and concerns about potential disruptions to Middle East energy supplies have helped support crude prices. This is an unfavorable combination for the stock market. Higher crude oil prices can add to inflationary pressure just as investors are becoming increasingly concerned about the possibility of additional Federal Reserve rate hikes. Gold ($GC) Plunges to $3,900 Gold has also come under heavy selling pressure, falling to $3,900 after breaking below the psychologically important $4,000 mark. The decline is particularly notable because gold is failing to attract sustained safe-haven buying despite the sharp selloff in the ES and NQ and rising geopolitical tensions. The combination of falling stocks and falling gold suggests investors may be reducing risk and raising cash rather than simply rotating into precious metals. U.S. Dollar ($DXY) Falls to 101.54 as Treasury Bonds Rally Another notable development is the weakness in the U.S. dollar. The Dollar Index ($DXY) sold off to 101.54, while 30-year Treasury bond futures ($ZB) rallied to a reported 108.41 before pulling back to 107.53, up 0.20%. The divergence is important. Normally, rising crude oil prices can put additional upward pressure on inflation expectations and Treasury yields. However, today's rally in bonds suggests investors are also seeking the relative safety of U.S. government debt as equities come under heavy pressure. The weaker dollar, stronger bonds and lower stock prices indicate that investors are reassessing economic growth, interest rates and risk exposure. Our View What stands out today is the unusual combination of sharply lower equities, higher crude oil, a weaker dollar, a rally in Treasury bonds and heavy selling in gold. The ES has traded down to 7,613, a decline of 1.82%, while the NQ plunged to 28,568, down 3.36% at the session low. Crude oil has rallied to $104.99, gold has dropped to $3,900, and the Dollar Index has slipped to 101.54. I have said this many times: When bonds are going down and crude oil is going up, it's generally not a good combination for the ES and NQ. Today is different because bonds are rallying alongside crude oil while the equity markets continue to fall. That tells me the market is dealing with more than just inflation concerns. Investors are also worried about economic growth, geopolitical risks and the enormous amounts of money being invested in artificial intelligence. The other important factor is the calendar. Today is the final trading session of October, and month-end portfolio adjustments, institutional rebalancing and closing imbalances could add to volatility into the 4:00 PM ET cash close. Historically, when the last trading day of October falls on a Friday, the S&P 500 has finished higher in six of the ten qualifying sessions from 2003 through 2025. However, the average return was slightly negative, suggesting that the seasonal tendency offers little protection against aggressive selling. Our Lean The ES and NQ remain vulnerable as long as technology stocks continue to lead the downside. The sharp divergence between crude oil and equities, combined with the rally in Treasury bonds and weakness in the dollar, suggests that investors are becoming increasingly defensive. The big question is whether buyers can stabilize the ES and NQ after the sharp declines or whether month-end selling, portfolio rebalancing and closing imbalances accelerate the move into the 4:00 PM ET cash close. @MrTopStep Futures Education and News
