DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, April 17, 2026, Chainwire
Bybitthe second largest cryptocurrency in the world by trading, report that global markets have reached new highs, led by historic highs in the S&P 500 and supported by corresponding gains in risk.
The S&P 500 closed above 7,000 for the first time on April 15, an important psychological milestone and a historic high for the index. The benchmark has posted gains of about 7.8% month-to-date in April and about 2.9% year-to-date in 2026 (before the market opens on Friday, April 17), reflecting a strong US economy. A number of US stocks continued to rise sharply following the Bybit Study analysis from April 6, extending the range significantly.
The conference is part of an international event. The MSCI All Country World Index, which tracks more than 2,500 stocks in developed and emerging markets, rose to 1,064, according to Bybit Learn analysis.
Major technology-driven brands have also advanced. The Nasdaq 100 is up 10.9% in April and 4.3% year-to-date, showing signs that it could continue its gains over the next 12 months. Meanwhile, the Taiwan RIC Index rose 18.1% in April and 28.3% year to date, confirming a strong recovery even in other Asian markets. Taiwan’s stock market, worth about $4.14 trillion, has overtaken the United Kingdom as the seventh largest in the world.
Outpacing the indices, equities have made significant gains. Shares of Bloom Energy have soared, rising 55% in April and 141.7% year to date. Several major US companies, including Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Lam Research, Marvell Technology and Dell Technologies, also hit new highs in recent sessions, showing strong strength across sectors.
Han Tan, chief researcher of Bybit Market, said, “Increasing economic activity around the world shows steady optimism among investors that a peace deal between the US and Iran is close. However, it remains to be seen whether all the market expectations will match the reality of the country.
The increase in capital prices and the increase in the number of individuals guarantee a period of increased risk in the global financial markets, in which traditional and digital products show similar sentiments. More information is available on the website.
