MTE: U.S. Midterm Election Outlook Indicates Strength in U.S. Stocks and Crypto Assets, Dip Still a Buying Opportunity

On January 14, QCP released its daily market analysis, noting: U.S. employment remains solid, inflation stable. Risk sentiment has fully rebounded, with gains across risk assets—stocks, precious metals, the U.S. dollar, and crypto. While news circulates about Venezuela, Iran, and U.S. involvement, markets stay largely calm. Crude oil carries a geopolitical risk premium, but the broader trend remains resilient. More practically, investors are framing current conditions through the U.S. midterm elections: Markets expect Trump to lean on liquidity and a stronger U.S. stance to lift performance, support U.S. asset outperformance, and drive global “risk-on” mood. After multiple failed attempts to break above, Bitcoin has finally topped $95,000. If precious metals keep benefiting from currency devaluation trades, Bitcoin’s relative value edge could draw funds back to digital assets again. Key risks still loom: the upcoming U.S. Supreme Court tariff ruling and further escalation in Venezuela or Iran. That said, current price action signals major risks are already priced in. Without a truly disruptive event, pullbacks should be buying opportunities.
