We are not out of the bear market yet. It's laughable that some "gurus" are already saying we are in a bull market. Historically speaking, there are two crucial factors that cannot be ignored:

1. The bull only comes after rates are cut and we enter quantitative easing This is because in QE there's more money in the markets that can flow into assets However, what they don't tell you is that... Price actually dumps the months after every rate cut.

Right now, we haven't even started cutting rates yet. And even when that happens, price will dump. Here is a pic showing what I mean. Vertical lines are the last 5 major rate cuts. This is how the $ES reacted. [img:5PPH1lVRA] The bottom is not in my friend.

2. Another factor you want to keep in mind is the $BTC halving cycle. Last halving was May 2020. Price dumps hard and bottoms 2 months before halving cycle begins. [img:iWj8hL7LO]

Most likely this was manipulated by all the big players to give them good prices to buy in before the big pump. Yes. That virus that happened in 2020 was a scam to get you to panic sell to the market makers among other things.

Still remember the days back in 2021 when I would get criticized by many that I was "cold" and "heartless" when I spoke against the whole shenanigans. And now it's a flex if you are unvaccinated.

Just a side note but having a contrarian mindset is key to succeeding in the markets. Can't be a part of the top 10% if you're thinking like the sheep. Do your own research. Form your own opinions. Then stand up for those opinions.

Anyways... Back to the main point. Next $BTC halving is April 2024. Likely the 2nd week of April 2024. This gives you a period of about 10 months from now till the next bull market begins to get your shit together.

Every bull run creates generational wealth for those who are prepared. And yet many will fail and achieve nothing. Because they will not be in a position to take advantage of the opportunity that is right in front of their eyes. Don't let that be you.

Anyways... One bonus point for all of you who are still here. We need to talk about the yield curve inversion.

Not going to explain what that is but let's just say that when the yield curve gets inverted... Recessions tend to follow. This has successfully predicted the last 7 recessions dating back to the Great Depression in 1929. [img:IvtsHpc-Y]

Usually there is a period of 12-18 months after the yield curve gets inverted before a recession follows. We are about 12 months in so far from the yield curve inversion back in 2022. You have been warned.
