Trader Unveils Massive Downside Target for Bitcoin, Calls for Multi-Month BTC Bear Market – Here’s His Outlook
A trader who nailed the Bitcoin market top earlier this year believes BTC will witness a period of falling prices in the coming months.
Pseudonymous analyst Bluntz tells his 318,000 followers on the social media platform X that he thinks Bitcoin is already in a bear market that will last about two years.
The trader shares a chart suggesting that he arrived at that time frame by measuring the length of the most recent Bitcoin bull market, which he says lasted from December 2022 to January 2025.
“Time-wise will probably last into 2027 in my opinion, give or take 25%.”

He also predicts that during the period of a sustained downtrend, Bitcoin may lose up to 55% of its current value before hitting a bear market bottom.
When asked about his downside price target for BTC, Bluntz replied ,
“$36,000.”
At time of writing, Bitcoin is trading for $80,296.
While Bluntz is bearish on Bitcoin, he says one precious metal is about to start a bull run. Looking at the two-week chart of gold versus silver (XAUUSD/XAGUSD), the analyst thinks the pair has printed a major lower high after completing an ABC rally.
“Time to pay attention to silver, in my opinion… Finally.”

Bluntz practices the Elliott Wave theory, which states that a bullish asset tends to witness a five-wave downtrend after concluding an ABC rally. A bearish gold-versus-silver chart suggests that silver is about to outperform gold.
Last week, gold printed a fresh all-time high at $3,167 per ounce.
At time of writing, silver is trading for $30 per ounce.

Goldman Sachs Global Stock Market Outlook: AI Capital Expenditure to Peak Next Year, Earnings Growth to "Slow Down Significantly", Cloud Giants Become "Defensive Assets"
Goldman Sachs’ 2027 Global Equity Strategy points out that the AI capital expenditure boom is nearing its peak, and global profit growth will slow significantly. S&P 500 earnings growth is expected to drop from 36% to 11%, with depreciation pressures gradually emerging. However, cloud giants’ valuations have adjusted to a forward P/E of 19.7, lower than the staples sector, and are classified as “relatively defensive” assets. Goldman Sachs predicts an S&P 500 target of 8,700 points and suggests overweighting the US and Japan, while underweighting Europe.
With $135 billion worth of Nvidia stock, will Jensen Huang cash out?
After Jensen Huang stepped down, his Nvidia holdings of approximately 812 million shares, valued at $135 billion, became a major pressure on the stock price. Any reduction in holdings is subject to both legal and market constraints: shares can only be sold compliantly after the disclosure of any undisclosed negative information, and the volume is equivalent to six trading days’ total market transactions, meaning large-scale cashouts would have to be spread over several months.
Will the traditional Christmas rally still happen in the US stock market this year?
After a simultaneous technical and position-based recovery in the US stock market, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan have successively signaled a year-end rebound. Extremely light positions, mean reversion of valuations, and seasonal support together create conditions for a short squeeze. However, global manufacturing import price inflation has annualized at around 24%, surpassing the pandemic peak, and the inflation bill will come due intensively in the first quarter of next year. Goldman Sachs warns that once the year-end rally materializes, it may exhaust future upside potential.
