QCP Capital reports a stark reversal in market sentiment following the election, with U.S. Equities and Bitcoin facing historic sell-offs. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq both experienced significant losses, dropping 2.7% and 3.8% respectively due to rising pessimism.
Put option volumes for U.S. Equities have surged to levels not seen since 2020, indicating heightened market fears. Bitcoin tested a key support level near $75,000 amid market turmoil, suggesting active investor strategies to mitigate risk.
Despite bearish trends, unexpected demand for longer-term Bitcoin call options suggests traders anticipate a possible recovery. Additionally, declining Treasury yields and a weakening U.S. Dollar may present unique opportunities for USD-denominated assets.
