On this October 13th, 2025 episode of The Gentle Ledger, markets exhale after last week’s turbulence. The Dow climbs over 1%, the Nasdaq rebounds more than 2%, and tech stocks — led by Broadcom’s AI partnership with OpenAI — help restore calm to Wall Street. Overseas, Asia and Europe move with quiet optimism, while gold glimmers above $4,100 as investors balance relief with caution. Oil finds footing after sharp losses, and Bitcoin steadies near $108,000 following a volatile stretch. Through soft, meditative narration, this episode guides listeners through a day of recovery — a reminder that even after storms, the markets, like breath, return to rhythm.
