If the bull market really returns, it will be a super-disaster for retail investors with less than 1 million in assets.
The first bear market saw an 82% decline, the second bear market saw a 77% decline, and the maximum decline in the third cycle so far is only 53%.
These are terrifying figures. I estimate that, factoring in the impact of Trump and Wall Street entering the market, the decline will be set at 60%, with just below 50,000 as the ideal range.
If the bull market really returns at the current price, retail investors with less than 1 million in assets will not even be able to put toge

$ETH
Ethereum experienced a sharp rise on August 19th following the US Treasury Department's decision to expand its bond repurchase program. The price surged 19.5% in 24 hours, reaching $2,286, before briefly climbing to $2,334 during the day before pulling back slightly.
The direct trigger for this move was the Treasury's decision to increase the amount of long-term bond repurchases to $4 billion per transaction. This move lowered long-term interest rates and increased demand for risk assets. In Ethereum's case, another factor contributing to the rise was the liquidation of approximately $5.

After ETH$ETH ’s strong surge yesterday, presumably no one dared bet against the trend and short today.
The short setup Zhixia provided early this morning reached its first target smoothly!
The pullback held support right at the Bollinger middle band, and the rebound unfolded as expected.
The price dipped as low as 2222, precisely entering the entry zone, then climbed all the way to 2267, perfectly validating the forecast.
Many people were still hesitating and waiting for the market to choose a direction, while Zhixia had already set the entry point and take-profit target in advance, firmly ke

Bitcoin is now sitting above its Bull Market Support Band.
A weekly close above it would be a major step forward and could start bringing FOMO back into the market.
Two consecutive weekly closes above the band, and sentiment could shift very quickly.
The market will start leaning toward “the bottom is in”, and instead of waiting for lower prices, people will start chasing Bitcoin higher.

Are we back?
What bullishness is this!

China’s Richest Man: A High-Risk Profession
1/
In 2020, Jack Ma publicly criticized China’s financial regulatory system at a financial summit.
As a result, Ant Group’s IPO was urgently halted. In the years that followed, the once most influential Chinese entrepreneur faded from public view, and his whereabouts became a mystery.
In 2021, Huang Guangyu was released from prison. He was elected China’s richest man three times and single-handedly built the Gome Retail empire, which reached a market value of ¥100 billion. By the time he walked out of prison, his era had long since ended.

$GLD is showing some strong short-term momentum.
At the time of this snapshot, GLD was trading around $413.88, up 3.85% on the session.
The interesting part is the price action.
GLD pushed up toward the $414 area and is holding close to the session high, showing that buyers are still active.
Key levels from the chart:
• $414 → immediate resistance
• $413.50 → short-term support
• $413.20 → next support
• $412.96 → recent intraday low
The 1-minute chart is clearly volatile, so I wouldn’t chase a move just because price is running.
If GLD breaks and holds above $414, momentum could continue.
