The surge in financial stocks is mirrored by a 2.9% increase in the price of Bitcoin (BTC/USD), which has now surpassed $67,886. This positive momentum is further supported by the stability of the 10-year US Treasury yield, which has remained steady at 4.35%.

The US international trade deficit has also widened for the third consecutive month, reaching $68.9 billion in February.

The rise in initial jobless claims warrants attention, while the widening trade deficit highlights the ongoing challenges faced by international trade.
