[BRIEFING.COM] The advance has strengthened approaching midday, with the S&P 500 (+1.3%), Nasdaq Composite (+2.0%), and DJIA (+0.6%) continuing to chart session highs.
Robinhood Markets (HOOD 124.41, +4.59, +3.83%) and Coinbase Global (COIN 203.35, +9.10, +4.68%) are among the top performers in the financials sector, as Bitcoin surges again today, moving past the $85,000 mark to its best level since Janyary.
Strategy (MSTR 166.20, +12.28, +7.98%) is also up sharply, reflecting its role as a bitcoin-treasury proxy. The company said it purchased 950 bitcoin between September 14 and September 20 and did not sell shares through its at-the-market offering program during that period.
