1M: −13.6% 2M: −21.6% 4M: −13.3% 6M: +3.5% 1Y: +53.9% It hurts first. Then it beats the S&P 500 (+14.3%), Nasdaq (+23.1%) and gold (+18.5%) over 12 months. While drawdowns of this velocity test conviction, an 80-year historical lens indicates that post-election volatility spikes typically mark cyclical exhaustion rather than structural regime breaks. With Democrats taking Capitol Hill, higher baseline deficit spending and entitlement expansions are set to accelerate currency debasement trends. Below, we break down the historical precedent across past post-midterm cycles and explain why patient capital should view this washout as an attractive entry point.

View original →Bitcoin buy-and-hold returned 63% a year over the past decade. An investor who bought five years ago has made just 2.3% a year. The difference isn’t luck. Bitcoin is now a $1.5 trillion asset, and moving it requires institutional and sovereign capital. Those investors respond to growth, inflation, the Fed and the dollar. For most of the past year, that backdrop has been the worst possible mix for Bitcoin. In today’s report, we cover: • What has worked over the last five years, and what hasn’t • The macro regime Bitcoin needs for big rallies, and how far we are from it • Why we think the worst of the repricing is behind us • How we’re positioning now We’ve also launched a Latest Views section on our Market Updates page, with our current call on each asset and the report behind it.

View original →Bitcoin: Why Buy-and-Hold Stalled and What Comes Next Many newer Bitcoin investors are committed to buy-and-hold. After an annual return of just 2.3% over the past five years, that conviction is being tested. Buy and hold has done well over 10 years, but the market has changed, and the last five years have been much harder. In this report, we explain why, which data points investors should watch, and how to act on them. Bitcoin doesn’t move in a vacuum, and neither do the flows behind it. A clear framework and a consistent process lead to better decisions. This report sets out what drives Bitcoin and how our process tells us when to be bearish, neutral, or bullish. We are also adding a new section to our Market Updates landing page (https://t.co/4PKimhmo8O). It shows our current views and links to the key reports behind them, so subscribers can quickly find what matters. We will update those reports whenever our view changes materially, across all 10x Research publications. Anyways, the full report on why buy-and-hold stalled, which indicators investors should be monitoring, which strategy has actually generated double digit returns even during the last five years is all in the report: https://t.co/6SyuUvyExg
