This is it! The big one! Err maybe not, contrarians on alert!


Recommended Posts

At some point it has to be the big one right?  But usually it comes as a surprise, this is the classic point of a black swan event, it is unexpected.  So that means the slow build up negatives do not amount to a black swan so therefore this is NOT it.  That said a stock market crash doesn't have to be a fall off a cliff moment like in 1987 so maybe...

 

At any rate my thought is this, that there is a **** of a lot of negative press noise around the US election and Fed rate rise risk (or in reality the risk that they won't!) and Brexit and so on.  Recently I saw an article about how if NFP Friday is a red day this will be the longest losing streak for global stocks since 1980.  But wait a minute how can that be?  The index hasn't fallen that far!  The stat means longest number of consecutive days in the red, even if just by 1 point.  Lies, **** lies and Stats and the regular punter only sees these headlines and not the real facts.

 

I can't help wondering if we will either see a rush back into risk and a rally before the "real" drop begins.  Even if this is the beginning of the end expect a serious retrace rally before it really gets going.

 

Bottom line is contrarians are on alert for the opposite of what the mainstream is expecting AND watch out for bear traps!

    • Is very obvious that dogs and cats are the best friend to human considering these are the most prominent meme communities in the crypto space. Well toad, rabbit, ****, bull etc all tried but Cats and Dogs meme remain top community. The love for this two can be traced to the pioneering pet of Atsuko Sato (Cat and Dog), the dogs inspired Shiba inu and doge.   Now, the Cats meme communities are pushing for the exposure of “Cate” known as the Kabosu Mama. They believe that CATE isn’t just any cat but a legendary meme feline that has been the best friend to the famous $DOGE and now extends a paw of friendship to $NEIRO.   Currently, $CATE is trending after many top exchanges listed the meme.  I wonder if this might be the next doge or shiba but considering its tokenomic and total supply I think is worthy to add to watchlist. Also considering this is related to the Sato family will it become the top cat community meme?        
    • Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s oldest and most valued cryptocurrency, remained steady around the $58,000 mark over the weekend. This stability comes as a contrast to other popular altcoins like Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), Solana (SOL), Ripple (XRP), and Litecoin (LTC), which all experienced declines. The Market Fear & Greed Index reflected this sentiment, standing at 39 out of 100, indicating a state of "Fear" in the market. Among the altcoins, Nervos Network (CKB) emerged as the biggest gainer with a 5% increase over the past 24 hours. On the other hand, Bittensor (TAO) saw the steepest decline, with a 9% drop in the same period. What to Expect from the September Fed Meeting Fed Meeting Overview The US Federal Reserve’s meeting on September 17-18 is expected to announce an interest rate cut on September 18. The market predicts a higher chance of a 50 basis points (bps) cut compared to a 25 bps cut. Data from CME FedWatch and Polymarket shows a strong likelihood for a 50 bps reduction. Historical Context This will be the first rate cut since March 2020. Previous rate cuts have historically benefited Bitcoin, as seen with the 2021 bull run. Potential Impact on Bitcoin Short-Term Outlook Doctor Profit, a crypto analyst, warns of potential short-term declines in Bitcoin if the Fed announces a rate cut. Market uncertainties, like geopolitical issues, could increase volatility. He advises careful risk management during this period. Long-Term Forecast Doctor Profit remains positive about Bitcoin’s long-term outlook. He expects Quantitative Easing (QE) to increase market liquidity, benefiting Bitcoin. Additionally, liquidity from FTX creditors in Q4 could further support Bitcoin’s price. Future Rate Cuts Citi analysts forecast a total Fed rate cut of 1.25% this year. Further rate cuts may follow the September meeting, impacting Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.
