The first half of 2023 is done. Over. Complete. Finished. So, here we are in July (Happy 4th) and the march to 2024 is officially under way. By the way, the first half of this year has been something to behold. Financial markets defied the Fed’s policy of raising interest rates and zoomed higher (S&P500). Gold didn’t ignore the rising rates and lost 5% for the first half. Bitcoin and ethereum had a great first half thumbing their noses at the SEC’s heavy hand of regulation. Oh well.
So here we are in the middle of summer. After this week’s jobs report number on Friday (+240K) things probably will get very VERY quiet. Enjoy the summer and relax. Keep long BITCOIN and ETH , stay away from GOLD (yup, dead money) and DO NOT expect the S&P 500 (or S&P 7) to repeat the first half of the year. Reality and gravity will eventually spoil the bullish fever.
Happy 4th of July.
IT HAPPENED. AGAIN. FIRST BITCOIN EXCEEDED THE PRICE OF GOLD (2017) AND NOW…….ETH IS FIRMLY ABOVE THE SHINY METAL’S PRICE. IT’S RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU; GOLD HAS BEEN REPLACED BY THE DIGITAL ASSET TWINS. SORRY GOLD BULLS.
NEW TARGETS:
- BITCOIN 2023…….UP……new all time highs
- ETH 2023…………UP……..new all time highs
- GOLD 2023……….??????????
- S&P 500 2023……..DOWN…….DOWN……DOWN……...LOOKING AT 3,250
Current trading positions:
- SLIGHTLY LONG BITCOIN
- SLIGHTLY LONG ETH
- NEUTRAL GOLD
- SHORT S&P 500
We compare the price of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Gold & the S&P 500. We use the CME Bitcoin Indexes (BRR & BRTI) and the CME Ethereum Indexes (ETH_RR_USD) & (ETH_RTI_USD) for reference as well as the London Bullion Market afternoon price settlement on the digital assets & gold.
