In this week’s podcast, Imran Lakha and David Brickell discuss the recent uptick across crypto markets as US yields backed off on softer inflation than expected last week, and a fresh wave of optimism was seen ahead of Donald Trump’s Inauguration as President of the US.
So far price action has been choppy around the event with no clear breakout and much of the weekend volatility was centered around the MEME coins launched by the First Family. David still sees the macro setup as very bullish and is unconcerned about reports of a BoJ rate hike later this week sparking more carry trade unwinds.
