Good afternoon and welcome to Markets Desk, your midday read on what's moving markets and money.
Poet Technologies is in freefall today, with shares cratering nearly fifty percent in what amounts to a record single-session drop for the company. The trigger was a disclosure that Marvell Technology is walking away from a key artificial intelligence partnership, and investors wasted no time repricing the relationship β or the lack of one β with brutal efficiency.
Shifting to crypto, Bitcoin has clawed its way back toward eighty thousand dollars, posting gains of roughly fifteen percent over the past month and trading near seventy-seven thousand as of this morning. The rally has coincided with a broader bullish April for equities, though analysts are cautioning that the durability of this move remains an open question, particularly given the concentration of buying behind it.
And on the compensation front, Elon Musk is set to receive rights to three hundred and four million Tesla shares tied to his two thousand eighteen pay package β a legal battle that stretched eight years before finally landing in his favor. The award had been challenged and clawed back through the courts, but Musk now stands to collect one of the largest individual payouts in corporate history.
That's the tape.
