Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin was trading weak early Tuesday, having penetrated support at $57,653, the Oct. 23 low. The leading cryptocurrency by market value has been losing ground since reaching record highs near $69,000 on Nov. 10.
“There hasn’t been any strong catalyst to propel bitcoin’s price forward, and whales [large investors] have not been accumulating like they did in previous bull runs – which paints how global macro uncertainties have kept prices muted,” Stack Funds' head of research Lennard Neo said.
Stack Funds’ COO and co-founder Matthew Dibb said the pullback represents a typical bull market correction and may be extended further. “There is mounting concern that inflationary pressures will cause a drop in risk assets, including bitcoin. We believe it will happen at some point, but it is not exactly imminent,” Dibb said.
Action in traditional markets indicates potential for a deeper drawdown. The reappointment of Jerome Powell as Chairman of the Federal Reserve, by U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday, reinforced bets that the central bank would hike rates faster to control inflation. U.S. stocks erased early gains, while gold and silver fell after Powell’s reappointment. The dollar index hit a 16-month high of 96.60 early Tuesday and the U.S. two-year yields rose to 0.63%, the highest since March 20.
