Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. (PURR) stock surged Friday as crypto-linked stocks rallied ahead of a key U.S. Senate vote. The broader market also traded higher. The Nasdaq gained 1.08%, while the S&P 500 rose 1.01%.
Crypto-linked stocks rose ahead of an upcoming Senate procedural vote on the Clarity Act, according to market data.
Sen. Cynthia Lummis said on social media that the updated bill text reflects “bipartisan hard work over August.” The comments fueled investor optimism that the legislation could clear the key procedural hurdle.
Hyperliquid Strategies also received a bullish analyst update this week. On Thursday, Cantor Fitzgerald maintained an Overweight rating on the stock and raised its price forecast to $34.20.
Technical Analysis
PURR remains in a strong longer-term uptrend. The stock has gained 201.03% over the past 12 months.
Shares are trading 8.8% above their 20-day simple moving average of $10.81. They are also 38.4% above the 50-day SMA of $8.50 and 44% above the 100-day SMA of $8.17.
The 20-day SMA remains above the 50-day SMA, supporting the bullish trend.
However, momentum has cooled. The MACD is below its signal line, while the histogram is negative. That suggests buying momentum has weakened from its previous pace.
