In a brand new technique session, Cowen tells his 789,000 YouTube subscribers that when the Fed begins reducing charges, which CME’s FedWatch Device signifies is more likely to occur as early as March, danger belongings like Bitcoin may very well decline in worth.
“As fee cuts arrive it’s sometimes not essentially the most bullish factor for danger belongings, not as a result of fee cuts in and of themselves usually are not bullish, however as a result of a fee reduce in and of itself is theoretically bullish.
However the issue isn’t the speed reduce itself. It’s why the speed reduce is going on. And on this cycle, much more so given the place inflation is, you’d should think about that if a fee reduce had been to reach with inflation as excessive as it’s, there’s in all probability a purpose that that’s taking place. Final cycle, we did get form of a [Bitcoin] mid-cycle prime [in September 2019] proper across the time that fee cuts arrived…
In case you take a look at issues just like the S&P 500 or danger belongings usually, generally they prime out nicely earlier than fee cuts arrive. Generally they prime out just a little bit after they arrive, however normally, fee cuts arriving haven’t been an awesome factor for danger belongings, not less than over the quick time period. When it turns into an excellent factor for danger belongings is when you get to the final fee reduce… As a result of when you get to the final fee reduce, it mainly implies the market thinks the Fed has finished sufficient and that they’ve gone again to sufficiently looser financial coverage to get the financial system again on observe.”
Cowen additionally warns that Bitcoin might dip to check ranges inside the bull market help band, which is fashioned by the 20-week easy transferring common (SMA) and the 21-week exponential transferring common (EMA).

“I believe it’s worthwhile to regulate the eight-week transferring common this week. Once more, it’s presently round $42,300, which is true across the present worth. If we get under it, there’s an excellent likelihood we’re going to check the bull market help band, which is all the way in which down at $35,000 to $37,000. Simply take into consideration $36,000 or so is the place it’s, which, by the way in which, from the present worth would symbolize a drop of roughly 13% to get again to the 21-week EMA and a few 16%-17% drop to get again to the 20-week SMA…
This can be a sample that we’ve seen quite a bit.”
