The rally that has propelled U.S. stocks to new highs may experience some volatility in the coming weeks but is expected to finish strong by year-end, said Scott Rubner, head of equity and equity derivatives strategy at Citadel Securities. The S&P 500 is up 17% from its low for the year, and short-term risks include stretched valuations, seasonal volatility typical of September and October, and potential selling by trend-following funds, Rubner wrote. However, these potential signs of weakness are unlikely to persist as the tailwinds supporting the stock market’s rise—including corporate spending on artificial intelligence and demand from retail investors—will continue to power the market in the final months of 2025. “Stay positive on structural demand, but hedge against near-term risks as September-October remains a window of vulnerability,” Rubner wrote, adding that investors should view short-term pullbacks as buying opportunities.

Publicly listed VivoPower International (stock symbol: VVPR) announced that its crypto mining subsidiary, Caret Digital, will increase its XRP holdings at an effective cost of 65% below the market price by expanding its mining scale and exchanging the mined tokens for XRP. The company did not specify the planned XRP acquisition amount or the type of mining token to be used for the exchange. VivoPower began implementing its XRP treasury strategy in May of this year, supported by a $121 million private placement led by the chairman of Saudi Arabia's Eleventh Holding. The company previously partnered with BitGo for custody and over-the-counter trading, and has also partnered with the Ripple-backed Flare network for a yield farming program.

The company stated that its strategy combines mining exchange and equity acquisitions to reduce its average holding cost. As of Tuesday's close, VivoPower's stock price fell slightly by 0.5% to $5, with a market value of approximately $50 million.
