#密码资产动态追踪 Analysts have been eyeing the 4500-4600 level since December 3rd. The market opened with a sharp surge of 90 points, once again hitting a new high! The price soared to $4601!
What is the market buying now? It boils down to two main reasons. First, the expectation of a rate cut in 2026 possibly signaling a loosening of 150 basis points, which effectively lowers real interest rates and boosts the valuation of precious metals. Second, global gold ETFs have experienced net inflows for six consecutive months, with Asian funds showing the most active performance. Shanghai Gold and international gold prices are moving in tandem, providing solid support for the market.
However, a warning sign must be noted—the short-term volatility is indeed worth caution. The rise in gold prices fundamentally still relies on geopolitical premiums, and institutions' bullish outlook of up to $4800 is based on this logic. The problem is, once market sentiment wanes and risk appetite recovers, the risk of a pullback can be quite severe. Investors should focus on the long-term, keep an eye on fundamental changes, and never get blinded by short-term gains. $XAU $PEPE $BEAT

The logic of geopolitical premium will eventually collapse. Now that we're pushing to 4600, the market is starting to surge. Once risk appetite shifts and a correction occurs, you can eat half of the gains.

Once the 4600 level is broken through, it's time to take profits. The geopolitical premium won't last long.

Did 4600 break? So fast... The geopolitical premium has been exhausted, I have a feeling it will crash later.

Oh no, it's rising again. The 4600 level has really arrived.
We definitely need to be cautious about the geopolitical premium; once risk appetite recovers, it could drop back in minutes.
The rate cut expectation sounds good, but who knows how long it can last.
I'm still hesitant, watching it go up but just not daring to chase.

Geopolitical premium won't last long; once emotions subside, it will plunge directly. Don't be blinded by 4600.

4601, so what? Once the geopolitical premium is exhausted, it's time to run.

Geopolitical premium this wave of gains is satisfying, but don't be fooled by 4600. During a pullback, it could directly break through 4500.

Once again, it has hit a new high, but I still feel a bit anxious. The market is moving too fast, and I feel the risks are accumulating.
