Tesla gets its pay package re-approved (again)

😎 Market Vibes

Good morning, traders. It's a classic Monday cocktail: Bitcoin hits $123K, Tesla gets its pay package re-approved (again), and 30% tariffs are back on the menu. Meanwhile, yields are creeping up, earnings are loading, and everyone's pretending they understand what "tight integration" means when Musk says it. Let's vibe.

But first - we wanted to share this crypto blueprint from our partners at Crypto 101:

🌀 Tariffs, Treasuries, and Crypto Chaos

• 📉 Futures Dip on Fresh Tariff Threats: US index futures slipped early Monday after Trump announced sweeping 30% tariffs on the EU and Mexico starting August 1. Global trade tensions are back in the driver's seat - and risk appetite is taking a hit.

• 📈 Bitcoin Breaks $123K Before Cooling: Bitcoin briefly surged up to $123,000 in early trading before settling just under $122K. The move marks a fresh 2025 high, fueled by renewed retail FOMO and global macro uncertainty.

• 📊 10-Year Yield Nudges Higher: Treasury yields are inching up toward 4.44%, signaling investors are hedging for longer inflation pressure or another rate curve fakeout. Bond traders clearly didn't get the summer slowdown memo.

• 🛢️ Oil Creeps Up Amid Global Jitters: Brent climbed above $70 while WTI hovered near $68.60. Middle East tensions and fresh tariff fears are giving energy markets a reason to tighten up - and traders are watching for any sign of a supply shock.

• 🚗 Tesla Ticks Up After Shareholder Vote: TSLA popped 1.1% pre-market as shareholers green-light Musk’s $55.8 B payday. The stock is still down 22% year-to-date, but investors are watching closely as Musk doubles down on AI through his startup xAI.

💸 Trade Talk

Shareholders gave Elon's $55.8B pay package a big thumbs-up - again - but the Delaware court hasn't budged. TSLA popped pre-market, but let's be real: the stock's still down 22% this year. Investors aren't trading the court ruling... they're trading the Elon ecosystem, and right now, xAI's buzz is doing more heavy lifting than Tesla deliveries.

🧠 Big Brain Energy

Bitcoin blasted past $123K at its peak today - the highest level since late 2021 - before settling back around $122K. It's up roughly 30% year-to-date, powered by both strong institutional flows and a wave of federal-level crypto bills in Congress (think GENIUS Act, Clarity Act, Anti‑CBDC).

🧨The Outrage Meter

The U.S. is rolling out 30% tariffs on EU and Mexican imports starting August 1 - and markets are already bracing for impact. From auto parts to industrial machinery, companies are scrambling to reprice supply chains on short notice. The timing? Just weeks before peak Q3 inventory planning. Traders aren't mad... just calculating how many earnings calls will now include the word "headwinds."
