Tom Lee's first trip abroad in the new year: a broad rally at the start of the year is a good omen, but a bear market may appear around mid-year

BlockBeats News, on January 8th, Tom Lee stated in an interview with CNBC that a broad rally at the beginning of 2026 (stocks, precious metals, cryptocurrencies, etc.) has always been a good sign for investors and institutional investors. This year will be “joy, depression, and rally,” similar to the pattern of 2025. “There will be a moment this year that makes people feel like entering a bear market,” but it will then rebound strongly, and ultimately the stock market will end on a bullish note. He predicts the S&P 500 index could reach 7,700 points by the end of 2026.

He believes that when the market tests the new Federal Reserve Chair, there could be a 15% to 20% correction, especially in the second half of the year. But this is not the end of the cycle, rather a buying opportunity.

Michael Saylor: Bitcoin’s winter is over; institutional and sovereign adoption could fuel the next uptrend

Gate News message, April 25 — Michael Saylor, co-founder of MicroStrategy, said "winter's over" as Bitcoin climbed to approximately $78,000, signaling a shift in market sentiment. According to analyst Mati Greenspan, recent market moves since the flash crash have been corrections within a broader bull market, with Bitcoin's bottom now in place. Greenspan believes the next leg of gains will be driven by "sovereign adoption," including central banks adding BTC alongside gold to their reserves. Governments and institutions are increasingly incorporating Bitcoin into their holdings. The U.S. government currently holds approximately 300,000 BTC and has discussed establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve. El Salvador continues making daily purchases, while the U.K. government and several U.S. state pension funds have added Bitcoin to their asset allocations.
