Bits + Bips: Why ‘All Assets Will Go Up’ in the Near Future - Ep. 716

Listen Later

1 hour 20 minutes

As the PBOC and Fed shift their stances on rates and liquidity flows, the macro landscape is evolving rapidly. In this episode of Bits + Bips, we unpack how these policy changes could spark a massive surge across all asset classes—from equities and bonds to Bitcoin and crude oil.

The hosts, joined by Nikos Kargadouris, a seasoned trader, discuss why liquidity is about to flood the markets, why fears of a U.S. recession may be overblown, and how even memecoins could benefit.

Plus, are central banks close to buying bitcoin ETFs?

Show highlights:

How the PBOC's shift in policies impacted the markets and when we’ll see a “bazooka”

How market complacency and short positions on oil amid geopolitical tensions could lead to mispricing and unexpected volatility

How rising crude oil prices could slow the U.S. economy, despite the country being a net oil exporter

How strong payrolls data reduced market expectations of U.S. rate cuts

Why predictions of a U.S. recession might be off

Whether it matters for crypto who wins the elections

The chances of central banks adopting Bitcoin

What the outlook for memecoins looks like in the next months

Whether the HBO documentary about the identify of Satoshi Nakamoto will be a disappointment
