ChainThink reports that on June 20, according to CNBC, Tom Lee, Chairman of BitMine, Ethereum’s largest treasury, said investors overreacted to the Federal Reserve’s meeting, which was overall quite dovish.

He believes the market interpreted the removal of forward guidance and changes to the dot plot as a hawkish shift, but new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh appears to be signaling a move toward using more modern data and real-time alternative data to understand inflation, without yet offering a clear judgment.

If the data changes, the dot plot may also adjust quickly. Regarding the outlook, Tom Lee stated that the current stock market environment remains favorable, and he does not yet believe the market has peaked.

However, he cautioned that the real challenges may emerge later this year due to factors including the Federal Reserve’s overhaul of its policy framework, phased unlocking of SpaceX’s outstanding shares this year, potential IPOs by Anthropic and OpenAI diverting liquidity, and disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz that could trigger supply chain shortages.

He also noted that investors have not yet become overly bullish, and the condition of speculative funds being exhausted has not yet occurred.
