Fundstrat’s Tom Lee Says Recent Market Dip an Opportunity for Investors – Here’s Why

Veteran investor Tom Lee says investors are better off remaining bullish on markets despite the recent correction in equities and other risk assets. In a new interview on CNBC, Fundstrat’s head of research says that the correction in equities – which saw the S&P 500 dip from above 6,000 to 5,832 – is likely an opportunity for investors to go long rather than stay cautious. “This is another buying opportunity in our view. 2024 has proven to be a year where the market’s been strong and it has eluded many opportunities for sustained weakness. I know [December 18th’s] pullback was really painful, but to us, I think the fundamental supporting stocks are intact and I think it’s a good opportunity for investors here.” Lee notes that the volatility index (VIX) – which measures the stock market’s expectation of volatility based on S&P 500 index options – rose sharply on December 18th. He says that historically, such a rapid rise has correlated with market bottoms. “The market has been bleeding lower. If you look at internals for the last ten days, [December 18th] looks capitulatory because not only did we have a 90% down day, but the VIX exploded by 75%. There are only four times in history where it’s risen 60% in a day, so [December 18th] was the fifth time in its 35-year history. Of those four times, the market recovered all of its losses within a week three out of the four times. The fourth time it took a month. So I think what you had was people panicking to get out of a momentum trade that’s ending because we’re so close to year-end. But here’s the interesting thing. The forward VIX-futures curve barely moved. So it was almost as if people were seeking protection through the VIX on [December 18th].” As of Friday’s close, the S&P 500 traded at 5,930 points.

Here’s How Cardano’s 17% Weekly Correction Can Help ADA Hit $6 This Cycle: Analyst

TL:DR; Cardano’s native cryptocurrency, alongside the rest of the market, has slumped hard on a weekly basis, dropping to well below $1. However, history shows that similar corrections have been followed by massive gains for the asset, with predictions of up to $6. ADAUSD. Source: TradingView ADA’s recent price performance could be analyzed from two main perspectives – short-term and long-term. When looking at the past ten days or so, the landscape is quite gloomy. Within this timeframe, the asset went from $1.2 to under $0.8. Although it has recovered some ground to $0.9 now, it is still 25% down since December 12. The broader landscape, though, shows a different picture. ADA’s price stood in a tight range between $0.3 and $0.4 for weeks ahead of the US presidential elections and the subsequent promising words by IOG’s founder, Charles Hoskinson. It exploded to a new multi-year peak of over $1.3 later on, and even now, with its correction to $0.9, it is still 160% up in less than two months. The first scenario is more painful for now, but when analyzing larger cycles, such as the current bull one, the second plays a more important role. Consequently, crypto analyst Ali Martinez focused on the long-term perspective to determine that ADA’s most recent correction could actually be a blessing in disguise. He noted that the token has followed an ‘eerily similar pattern’ to the previous cycle in 2020. Back then, the asset’s first major retracement after a substantial rally “happened at the very same time as the correction we are experiencing today.” As such, he believes ADA could shoot past its 2021 ATH of $3.09 (according to CoinGecko) and hit a new peak of $6. #Cardano $ADA is following an eerily similar pattern to its previous cycle. Back in 2020, the first major correction after the bull rally began happened at the very same time as the correction we are experiencing today. $6 next! pic.twitter.com/CPrYdQQqyx — Ali (@ali_charts) December 22, 2024 It’s worth noting that such a price tag would put ADA’s market capitalization at well above $200 billion, which would make the asset the third-largest, at least according to how the market looks today.
