Pay attention: liquidity is telling us where Bitcoin and gold are headed, here's what we see. Global Liquidity leads risk assets by about THREE MONTHS. The $2.5 trillion Q1 expansion drove a 13% MSCI World rebound in Q2. The May liquidity peak has left Q3 gains at just 2.7%. Fed liquidity drives Bitcoin. It fell from roughly $80,000 in mid-May to $60,000 as Fed liquidity stalled, recovered to around $85,000, and is still weak. PBoC liquidity drives gold. It dropped to $4,000 in Q2, climbed to $4,700 in August, and has since settled near $4,300 as Chinese injections slowed over the past two to three weeks. This is key: Fed conditions continue to weaken through the quarter.
