Tech Stock Declines Pressure Bitcoin as Hedge Fund Predicts $70K Target
The recent selloff in the crypto market is linked to a speculative bubble burst in memecoins and declining stock market sentiment. Key points include:
- The Nasdaq fell over 2% before market close, totaling a 7% drop in recent sessions.
- Declines were led by chipmakers after Nvidia's earnings report, with Nvidia down 5%.
- High valuations and President Trump's tariff threats contributed to stock market corrections.
- Quinn Thompson of Lekker Capital advised caution in risk assets, noting strong inflation data and unanchored long-term inflation expectations.
- Thompson indicated a bearish outlook for crypto, stating that positive news has failed to boost prices and targeting Bitcoin at around $70,000 by March.
