January 18th has an interesting market observation. Industry veteran analysts stated that the five trading days at the beginning of the month indeed sent out many positive signals — such a start is significant for the year's overall trend and also increases the possibility of the S&P 500 hitting the 7700 point target.

Recently, the fluctuations in the financial sector, the broader market, and the crypto market somewhat reflect policy influences. Washington's push to restrict credit card interest rate measures, if implemented, would significantly constrain the lending capacity of financial institutions. This could be a considerable shock to the entire financial industry.

However, on the other hand, the progress of the 《Clarity Act》 in the crypto field is considered a major positive. It’s important to note that the crypto market suffered quite a bit last October, but as time passes and the distance from that low point grows, the recovery potential is quite substantial. This logic is easy to understand — with clearer policies and established industry rules, market confidence can gradually be restored.

Based on this judgment, the outlook for Bitcoin is quite optimistic. It’s not an overstatement to expect BTC to break new historical highs this year. As for Ethereum, the analyst’s attitude might be even more positive — some believe ETH could outperform BTC in terms of performance. How the market unfolds will still depend on subsequent policy developments and technical performance.
