[BRIEFING.COM] The S&P 500 (+0.2%), Nasdaq Composite (+0.2%), and DJIA (+0.2%) are modestly higher just after midday.
Circle Internet Group (CRCL 66.62, +3.61, +5.73%) is sharply higher after receiving final approval from the OCC to establish Circle National Trust, a national trust bank that will initially provide federally regulated digital asset custody for CRCL and its affiliates, with USDC reserve management planned as a future capability. The approval, which follows conditional OCC approval in December 2025, is supporting the stock because it gives CRCL a stronger federal regulatory framework around key stablecoin infrastructure while arriving after a volatile pullback in the shares.
