Crypto Stock Barometer | Listed Companies’ Weekly Net BTC Purchases Plunge Over 80%, Coinbase and Block Buck the Trend with First-Time Accumulation; Bitmine’s ETH Holdings Rise to ~5.206 Million, Targeting 5% of Circulating Supply by Year-End (May 12)

Editor’s Note: Following a phased resolution of the US-Iran situation, the US stock market and global indices have simultaneously started to rise, with AI-related sectors such as storage, computing power, and energy leading the surge particularly strongly. Additionally, mật mã-related stocks have gradually recovered, with major players we have frequently mentioned, like Strategy (MSTR), Coinbase (COIN), and Circle (CRCL), all beginning their strong rebounds. Circle (CRCL), in particular, initially fell sharply after releasing its Q1 earnings last night due to market performance metrics like revenue falling short of expectations. However, it subsequently rebounded significantly, buoyed by product and business updates such as Arc Network and Agent Stack. Its price briefly broke through $130, leaving less than a 15% increase to reach the $150 target price we previously mentioned, maintaining a bullish outlook. It is worth noting that the US stock market is currently experiencing an influx of global liquidity, and its market performance is highly similar to the crypto market, with the trend of “strong leaders getting stronger, while small-cap or junk stocks are ignored” continuing.

Global Hot Money Flows into US Stocks, AI Far from “Bubble” Stage

Overseas Investors’ Allocation to US Stocks Reaches 63%, Surpassing Dot-Com Bubble Peak

Cointelegraph recently reported that overseas investors are pouring into the US stock market at a record pace, with their stock allocation ratio hitting 63%. This figure has doubled from the level following the 2008 financial crisis and has surpassed the peak seen during the dot-com bubble.

CICC: AI Has Not Yet Reached a Typical “Bubble” Stage

A research report from China International Capital Corporation (CICC) states that since the end of March, led by AI, the US stock market, the A-share ChiNext board, and stock markets in South Korea and Japan have continued to strengthen. While factors such as the lack of further deterioration in geopolitical tensions and improved market sentiment have contributed, the standout performance of tech stocks in Q1 has also played a significant role. AI has “dominated” recent market performance as well as earnings and growth.

Considering discussions from the three dimensions of demand, investment intensity, and market pricing, AI has not yet reached a typical “bubble” stage. However, it is objectively true that investment is “front-running” relative to demand and capacity, which is a primary reason AI has progressed amidst setbacks over the past few years. In fact, the AI rally since 2023 has not been a one-way upward trend. Roughly speaking, it typically involves two quarters of rapid increase, followed by increased concerns about a bubble, leading to a quarter of consolidation or decline while waiting for new catalysts.
