BTCUSDT Risk assets continued their move higher as volatility retreated further. The S&P 500 has reclaimed the $5800 level, marking a 5% rebound from the trough just two weeks prior. BTC has surged 15% since briefly dipping below $77k last week, with alts broadly outperforming over the same period.
The spike in VIX, which topped at 30 and triggered a wave of stop losses along with a sharp reduction in positioning, has now retraced to 17. We see the equity move as a tactical relief rally driven by asset managers rotating back to into risk, rather than a response to any fundamental macro shift.
Uncertainty surrounding U.S. trade policy and the broader political landscape remains front of mind. Trump has teased further tariff measures ahead of the April 2nd deadline. However, the market still lacks clarity on the scope, timing and magnitude of these potential actions. Until then, we expect more sideways volatility.
Copper and Gold have taken center stage. Copper has rallied to fresh all-time highs on the back of tightening supply dynamics. While hopes of China-led demand recovery are being cited, we believe these are only a secondary tailwind. Meanwhile, Gold has also breached the $3000 level, though we anticipate this to act as a key psychological cap.
In digital assets, we see scope for BTC to outperform tactically in the near term. In a surprising twist, GameStop (GME) has added BTC to their treasury. While this is not a first in the corporate adoption story, the symbolic weight of GME's meme status could rekindle speculative fervour among retail participants. As the 2021 playbook reminds us, retail flows, if coordinated, have the power to challenge institutional positioning.
BTCUSDT Synthetix founder Kain Warwick: During the ICO era, projects had to pay $50k to $300k per month to collaborate with mm to attract large investors and get listed on exchanges. Nowadays, mm strategies have evolved furtherโprojects sell tokens at a discount to liquidity funds before the TGE and agree on market bidding, while handing over large amounts of tokens to exit-strategy market makers, who pump the price in a low-liquidity market before dumping them.
โซ S&P 500/gold ratio dropped to the lowest level since the pandemic, reflecting the increasing demand for safe shelter and warning to the US economy. The analyst at the State Street Global Advisors said this could be a sign of the re -evaluation of growth prospects and corporate profits in the US.
