Ansem: In the short term, the outlook has shifted from bullish to bearish, and the U.S. stock market may have reached the end of the macro cycle
Renowned trader Ansem stated in the podcast "Market Bubble" that he has recently shifted from a bullish to a bearish stance, reducing his positions and taking profits over the past few days, while also shorting a portion.Regarding stocks, Ansem believes that mainstream targets have seen significant increases, accumulating a large amount of unrealized profits, and have hardly experienced any proper corrections. Now, significant de-risking and profit-taking are starting to occur. He thinks that the U.S. stock market may be at the tail end of the macro cycle, with funds withdrawing.For the cryptocurrency market, Ansem believes that crypto performed strongly in Q3, but it may just be a counter-trend rebound rather than the beginning of a new bull market. Crypto had previously outpaced the weakness in stocks, rebounding after being oversold; if stocks continue to weaken, they may drag crypto down with them, and Bitcoin could fall back to around $70,000. He also expressed continued optimism about tokenized stocks, viewing them as a key pathway to bring more traditional capital onto the blockchain, as well as a catalyst for the next wave of real users and capital inflow, and reiterated his positive outlook on ZEC, emphasizing its privacy Bitcoin attributes.
