Canaan Inc. (CAN), a leading manufacturer of bitcoin mining machines, saw its stock soar 8.24% on Friday during the intraday trading session, following the rally in bitcoin prices and rising optimism around the crypto mining industry.
The surge in CAN's stock price was driven by a bullish technical signal called a "golden cross" formed when the stock's 50-day moving average crossed above its 200-day moving average. This pattern is often seen as a precursor to a potential bullish breakout.
Additionally, investors are optimistic about the future prospects of the crypto mining industry under the incoming Trump administration. Expectations of crypto-friendly regulations and increasing investor interest in the sector following Trump's election victory have fueled the rally in crypto-related stocks.
