Bitcoin: Here's the "$64,000 Question"

 

Will the cryptocurrency ever trade at its all-time again?

By Elliott Wave International

In the 1950s television game show, "The $64,000 Question," contestants answered general knowledge questions and the money they could earn doubled as questions became more difficult.

The show's title spawned the well-known phrase -- "that's the $64,000 question" -- which, as you probably know, means the crucial question which gets to the heart of a matter.

Well, "the $64,000 question" for bitcoin is: Will the cryptocurrency ever trade at its all-time of $64,899 again (which was reached on April 14 of this year)?

This is a top-of-mind question for many bitcoin investors who've seen the cryptocurrency bounce back from every "correction" since the start of its meteoric rise.

For instance, on Jan. 27, the headline of a major financial magazine asked (Forbes):

Bitcoin Has Crashed. Is This The End?

That was in response to Bitcoin's swift slide from near $42,000 to around $30,000.

Yet, bitcoin's Elliott wave pattern suggested that the price would rebound. Here's a chart and commentary from the Feb. 5 Global Market Perspective, an Elliott Wave International monthly publication which covers 50+ worldwide markets:

Our preferred [Elliott wave] count is that [Bitcoin] is advancing within the subwaves of a [larger up wave]. ... The wave IV (circle green) correction played out for most of January. Wave evidence suggests that the correction ended on Jan. 22.

Bitcoin: More Volatility Directly Ahead?

 

Here's how Elliott wave analysis helps you prepare for cryptocurrency volatility

By Elliott Wave International

If there's a single word to describe bitcoin's price action, that word is "volatile."

Yet, those who invested roughly a year ago in the cryptocurrency -- and stuck with it -- have been hugely rewarded. (At least until very recently, as bitcoin traded more than 50% lower from its all-time high on May 19, as the price careened nearly 30% at one point on that day alone.)

Indeed, Elliott Wave International cryptocurrency analyst Tony Carrion provided a video update on bitcoin in the March 2020 Global Market Perspective, a monthly publication from Elliott Wave International which provides coverage of 50+ worldwide financial markets.

True or False: Inflation = Stock Market Sell-off?

 

Before you answer, recognize that the "market has a law of its own"

By Elliott Wave International

The topic of inflation has been grabbing a lot of financial headlines.

Indeed, financial journalists have "blamed" inflation for recent stock market sell-offs.

On May 11, when the Dow Industrials closed 475 points lower, an intraday headline said (Reuters):

Wall Street drops on inflation jitters, led by tech stocks

The next day, on March 12, the sell-off persisted. Another financial news source noted (CNBC):

Dow tumbles 680 points in worst decline since January as hot inflation reading spooks investors

So, at least two news organizations agree that inflation was the culprit behind the sell-offs.

However, investors who follow the news closely may have done a little head scratching. Meaning -- at the start of the same week (May 10) -- the Dow climbed to a record high. So, were inflation worries absent on that day? Not according to this May 10 headline (CNBC):

Americans fear highest inflation in nearly a decade

 

 

Dear reader,

Here's a rare treat for you.

Seldom do our friends at Elliott Wave International produce a video issue of their most famous monthly publication, the Elliott Wave Theorist. When they do, the issue tends to provide a sweeping view of major market trends and (especially) turns, filled with charts, with editor Robert Prechter's voice-over providing a highly compelling narrative.

That's exactly what the recent April issue of the Theorist comprises.

In it, EWI provides their long-term outlook for 3 key markets: interest rates, commodities and stocks.

Robert Prechter originally delivered this presentation to a foundation on January 18, 2021. Since then, rates have followed the script by rising sharply. Commodities broke with their recent history as well and gained. Stock indexes made new highs -- and have seen some weakness since.

Theorist subscribers, who received the issue in mid-April, say:

"Just a quick line to say how much I enjoyed your presentation... Very thought provoking" -- Martin P.

"A well done and excellent Theorist which caused me to really think about 2021, as it unfolds." -- John M.

This single video issue sells for $108 in the EWI store. They are allowing us to share it with you FREE with this coupon code: WAVE2021. You need to simply enter the code and then sign up for Club EWI to watch.
