On the news front, we need to pay attention to the following important news

Bill Ackman, the founder of Pershing Square Asset Management, announced on Monday that he had closed his long-term short position in U.S. Treasuries. The decision quickly drove gains in U.S. stocks and U.S. Treasuries. Ackman said there are too many risks globally and it is no longer appropriate to continue shorting the bond market at current interest rate levels. Additionally, he believes the U.S. economy is slowing down faster than recent data suggests. Ackman's precise market observations have attracted much attention during the new crown epidemic, and his decision to close positions has once again attracted widespread attention. Previously, the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield exceeded the 5% mark, but fell back after Ackman's statement.


In addition, "old bond king" Bill Gross also expressed his opinion, saying that he is buying short-term interest rate futures and predicts that the U.S. economy will decline in the fourth quarter. He pointed to turmoil at regional banks and rising auto loan delinquencies as signs of a significant slowdown in the U.S. economy.


Recently, long-term U.S. bond prices have fallen sharply as the Federal Reserve insists on tightening monetary policy and the U.S. fiscal deficit surges, causing U.S. bond yields to surge. Many institutions predict that U.S. bond prices may hit a bottom, and this view is also widely spread on Wall Street.


UBS believes that the “desperate selling” on October 12th marked the bottom of U.S. Treasury bonds. Institutions such as Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs have also expressed bullish views on the U.S. bond market. Michael Hartnett, chief investment strategist at Bank of America, believes that U.S. bonds will be one of the best-performing assets in the first half of 2024.


At present, neither Grayscale nor BlackRock’s ETF has been approved, and there is no obvious progress. Although Grayscale has obtained a court case, the final decision-making power lies with the SEC, and the authorization is still uncertain. The review time range is from 0 to 240 days, and the time limit is unknown. Therefore, the premium of GBTC may trend towards the price of BTC, but whether it can be converted into a BTC spot ETF is still uncertain, and approval is also full of uncertainty. BlackRock also did not receive SEC approval and although funds were prepared, they were not approved. The SEC has not yet issued an official decision, and market expectations are currently focused on ARK’s final deadline, which is January 10 next year.


To be clear, the current rise is mainly due to expectations for the early approval of the BTC spot ETF. This expectation is projected into the market in advance, and prices rise.
