About this episode

The episode discusses market reactions to the Iran ceasefire and analyzes the ongoing bullish and bearish trends in various assets.

Markets ripped on the Iran ceasefire headlines, but Mike says the bigger bearish process may still be unfolding. Mike and David break down why Bitcoin, oil, global liquidity, and the S&P’s 200-day moving average are all flashing mixed signals, and why the real bottom may still require more pain, patience, and weak-hand capitulation. ---- 📣GALAXYONE | SOLANA STAKING https://bankless.cc/GalaxyOne ---- 🎯THE DEFI REPORT | FOLLOW & SUBSCRIBE https://thedefireport.io/friends https://thedefireport.transistor.fm/ https://thedefireport.io/ https://x.com/the_defi_report https://x.com/JustDeauIt ---- TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 2:56 Market Reactions to Ceasefire 6:28 Analyzing the Bull & Bear Cases 11:02 The Pessimist's Perspective 15:34 Iran's Strategic Position 22:37 Understanding the Liquidity Cycle 26:58 The Long-Term View on Bitcoin 31:34 Short-Term Market Signals 36:08 Closing & Disclaimers ---- Not financial or tax advice.
