Bloomberg Intelligence's chief commodity strategist, Mike McGlone, issued a bearish outlook on Dogecoin (DOGE) in a recent tweet. McGlone, a frequent commentator on Bitcoin and Ethereum, compared the current cryptocurrency market to historical financial bubbles, drawing parallels to the dot-com crash of 2000, the 1929 market crash, and the subsequent Great Depression.
He highlighted a correlation between the gold-to-Bitcoin ratio and DOGE's price movements, suggesting that DOGE, along with other speculative assets, may be facing a significant price reversal. This correlation, he argues, indicates the potential for a substantial decline in DOGE's value, prompting investors to shift their holdings towards safer assets like gold.
McGlone's tweet stated: "Dogecoin, 1929, 1999 Risk-Asset Silliness and Gold - The ratio of #gold ounces equal to #Bitcoin trading almost tick-for-tick with #Dogecoin may show the risks of reversion in highly speculative #digitalassets, with #deflationary implications underpinning the metal. Full report…"
This pessimistic assessment echoes his earlier predictions of a potential Bitcoin price drop to $10,000, citing similarities between the current market conditions and the pre-dot-com crash environment. The recent reduction in Meta shares held by Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood, though not explicitly linked by McGlone, could be interpreted as further evidence of a broader market correction.
