Have not looked at it in a while but I am guessing something to do with sector rotation out of biotech stocks into the current AI mania.
Inflation came in hot. Up to 3.5 %. Is Powell gonna do what needs to be done and channel his inner Paul Volcker ? Or will he continue to pussy foot around
If and when he drops rates, just get ready for some hyperinflation type prices on things we need.
Not sure rates will drop this year. I sure hope not. I would love to see Powell talk about more rate hikes
I thought Powell talked about maybe 7-8 rate cuts this year, then it was lowered to 3-4. If his/their target for inflation is 2% and they keep missing it, what actually needs to be done? Cut rates. He said if the jobs/labor numbers come back softer than expected, he would cut rates. Of course, you and I will believe that when we see it.
The government is borrowing a Trillion dollars every 100 days. That's 3 Trillion in borrowing to go along with the already massive deficit. When you're borrowing money to just pay the interest of money owned, its not gonna end well. It can be papered over only so long until something breaks.
The Trillion the government borrows is spent back, theoretically, into the country's economy increasing the GDP. That's laughable, has any of us ever seen the government spend money wisely? So, 3 Trillion borrowed will raise the GDP by 3 Trillion. How does that math work?
The day is approaching when Powell will be faced with defending the dollar or saving the stock market. Which one you think he'll pick? If the USD dies, the country dies. That was the plan since 1913.
Sell off prior to the halving? Or has Bitcoin already peaked this cycle?
I think just a sell off and Bitcoin hits 100-115 by Q3/4

I have seen speculation it's peaked.
Hard to say.
I could see the scenario where we're 12 years away from $120K+
This is the storyline every single time the halving event hits and then all the Bitcoin Maxi's tell you that is the only thing to invest in while the Retail folks buy Bitcoin and they move all the Retail money they just took to Ethereum... then they will hype up Ethereum as the only alternative to Bitcoin and then move into the other alts starting with Solana, Avalanche or Cardano... and so on and so on and so on.
Whales do what they do... pump their bags and sell. The key is getting in before them
I can see a scenario where it's 120K by Christmas, then a sell off to 90K by the end of the year.
Regardless, it's always fun to speculate. LOL
Good for people that bought Jan 1.. bad for people that bought in two months later
I mean, AI is not going away...that would be like saying the internet is going away.
Could it bust? yeah, of course. But before is busts it will change things.
I agree. Obviously .com was the way of the future but there was a lot of pain bc of the bubble it created
Remember how companies would be crazy huge and then...gone!
I legit remember NONE of these

I bought back my other half that I sold at $500 of GSOL (Solana) today at $374. Bull flag looks justtttt about ready for another leg higher. Still holding GBTC.
I'm waiting for BONK to get to a penny and then I'm done workin boys.
I think we have about 4 to 5 more months of steady levels before we actually see the bull hit. NFA, but if you want in I think this is your time table IMO
It’s up 20% since my post. Not quite as flat as Taylor Swift’s ass.
Right, but I think it will go up a bit more and then dip another 20% a couple more times before you start seeing the 20% up 5% down moves
The US dollar has endured as the world's primary reserve currency for decades, benefiting from factors such as the size and stability of the US economy, the liquidity of US financial markets, and the widespread use of the dollar in international trade and finance. However, challenges such as mounting debt levels, trade imbalances, and geopolitical tensions can contribute to speculation about the future of the currency.

COTI to the moon!! Hopefully we’re all COTI millionaires 5 years from now 🥳
I still want to see BONK at a penny! Looking forward to that beer in Tampa bay if it does!
Coti has lost half its value since you posted this. Black Monday is here 😱
Dude I've only got a bit in cash left as well. Sucks for me in that regard, I'm not really all that concerned about it because I don't plan on selling until peak season anyway. If it dives deeper, I'm thinking that it might be better for me so I can just buy in more and lower my average buy in costs.
If a recession is hitting and persists through the next BTC cycle and BTC still peaks as it has anyway, I could see how ETF's that contain BTC or ETH or ADA ect ect could still perform well against the general market during the peak season.
Then I would be ready to grab a ton of crypto about roughly a year after the peak in '25. So I'm eyeballing July '26 to July '27 to buy back in. If cycle persists that would be ~40k BTC at that point.
This is going to be a huge excuse-filled day for the cryto-bros!
I have some too, but I am not a crypto-bro, I get that you can make some money off it but it is a total hoax but I will gladly keep trying to make cash off it.

I bought some BTC since it got under 50k. Not sure how low it will go though
