During prior risk-on equity waves, Bitcoin\u2019s 90-day correlation with the S&#038;P has repeatedly climbed into the 0.3\u20130.5 range, compared with near-zero or negative readings during risk-off periods. <\/p>\n<p>UBS had projected the S&#038;P 500 reaching 7,500 by year-end 2026 on the back of roughly 14% earnings growth, with approximately half of that expansion driven by AI and tech. The index hitting that target ahead of schedule compresses the forward timeline for every correlated risk asset. <\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s price structure shows a clean reclaim of the 200-day EMA, with horizontal resistance clustered near its prior all-time high. The technical setup is not ambiguous after it reaches what looks to be a local bottom. But the question now is whether macro momentum holds long enough to push through it.<\/p>\n<p>The primary variable to watch is institutional infrastructure demand, specifically whether the Nasdaq options market and spot ETF complex continue to absorb supply at current levels or begin showing outflow pressure ahead of the next macro data print.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoins Oil Price Collapse Is the Disinflationary Shock Crypto Has Been Waiting For<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/chart\/1YM1GbAn\/?symbol=COINBASE%3AETHUSD\" id=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/chart\/1YM1GbAn\/?symbol=COINBASE%3AETHUSD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Brent cru<\/a>de tumbling back below $100 per barrel is not just an equity catalyst; it is a direct input into the inflation trajectory that has kept the Federal Reserve hawkish and crypto markets range-bound. <\/p>\n<p>The Iran deal oil price dynamic runs a clean causal chain: lower crude means lower CPI expectations, which would likely be followed by the Fed less compelled to hold <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptonews.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rates<\/a> restrictively, dollar softens, liquidity conditions loosen, so risk assets, including Bitcoin, can reprice higher.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<blockquote data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<div lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\n<p>\ud83d\udea8 BREAKING:<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\ud83c\uddee\ud83c\uddf7 BRENT CRUDE HAS FALLEN BELOW $100 AS OPTIMISM GROWS AROUND A POSSIBLE U.S.-IRAN AGREEMENT<\/p>\n<p>THE DEAL MAY INCLUDE A CEASEFIRE AND THE REOPENING OF THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ<\/p>\n<p>NEARLY 20% OF GLOBAL OIL SUPPLY MOVES THROUGH THE STRAIT<\/p>\n<p>MARKETS ARE STARTING TO PRICE IN A\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/bQGMGo4V1t\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/bQGMGo4V1t<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/aLNOVzUwFM\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/aLNOVzUwFM<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u2014 The Bitcoin Times (@TheBitcoinTime) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheBitcoinTime\/status\/2058909883810910622?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">May 25, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Brent had spent weeks above $100 following Iran\u2019s disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint carrying roughly 20% of global oil supply.
