When the stock market dips and investors are concerned about inflation, gold's price tends to increase.
Gold has historically held its value and increased in price over time, making it a useful long-term investment tool.
Investors can use gold as a safe-haven ****** et by buying physical gold coins or bars, gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs), or gold mining stocks.
Gold is a safe-haven investment, meaning its value remains steady or even increases during periods of economic uncertainty. Unlike stocks, the price of gold isn't tied to a single country or company, and gold has been a valuable ****** et for centuries.

While it's extremely difficult to predict a stock market pullback, there are certainly harbingers that the market could be in for a rough ride over the coming month. The September-October period ahead of U.S. mid-term elections is historically a volatile one. In fact, Cantor Fitzgerald notes that the S&P 500 index has fallen by 5% or more during these two months in 15 of the past 24 midterm election cycles.
At the same time, two major market valuation indicators point to stocks being at extremely frothy valuations. The S&P 500 Shiller CAPE (cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings) ratio is at over 40 times for the first time since before the dot.com market crash. The so-called Buffett indicator (U.S. stock market value divided by gross domestic product), named after Warren Buffett, is over 230%, well above the 120% where the market is considered overvalued. Throw in a war and a stressed consumer, and the ingredients for a market pullback are there.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
There is no guarantee of a big market dip, and even if there were one, I wouldn't panic. Instead, I'd view it as a strong buying opportunity. AI has changed the equation, leading to big productivity gains that are just beginning, and stocks are generally cheap on a forward basis. The market today is very different than in the past. The S&P 500 is no longer led by cyclical and financial companies. Instead, it's dominated by large tech companies with strong balance sheets that produce enormous operating cash flow.
Let's look at five exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to scoop up if the market dips in the coming month.

Apple is skipping the base iPhone 18 this fall in favor of three premium devices: the iPhone 18 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable — rumored to be called the iPhone Ultra, Duo, or Fold. The foldable is the headline. It's expected to feature a 7.8-inch internal display, a 5.3-inch external screen, an A20 Pro chip, and a thickness of just 4.5mm unfolded, with pricing estimated between $1,999 and $2,399 and limited initial supply. It marks Apple's entry into the foldable category years after rivals — a potentially major new product cycle for one of the world's most valuable companies.
Here's the pattern every ETF investor should understand before today's close. Nearly two decades of data show that Apple tends to "sell the news" on launch day itself. AAPL averages a roughly 0.3% decline on iPhone launch days, with a median drop of about 0.6% — the classic case of anticipation being priced in before the reveal.
But the weakness rarely lasts. Apple has averaged a 0.5% gain the very next session (positive in 15 of 24 releases), and the longer-term picture is decisively bullish: AAPL has gained in the 60 days following an iPhone reveal 17 times since the original 2007 launch. The biggest such move was a 20% gain in the 60 days after the iPhone 11 reveal in 2019. In other words, launch-day dips have historically been buying opportunities, not warning signs. **** ysts have also downplayed fears about the ~$2,000 foldable price tag, arguing a premium halo product is unlikely to dent Apple's overall economics.
Apple is not just a stock — it's one of the largest weights in the entire ETF universe. As one of the biggest companies in the world, it sits near the top of the S&P 500, the Nasdaq-100, and virtually every technology index. That means a move in AAPL ripples through hundreds of funds, and millions of investors have significant Apple exposure without realizing it. When Apple moves on event day, these are the ETFs that move with it.
A handful of funds carry outsized Apple weights and will feel today's move most acutely. GXPT (Global X PureCap MSCI Information Technology ETF) holds roughly 19.2% in Apple — the highest of any diversified fund. FTEC (Fidelity MSCI Information Technology Index ETF) holds about 16.3%, VGT (Vanguard Information Technology ETF) about 16.2%, TRUT (VanEck Technology TruSector ETF) roughly 15.1%, and TOPT (iShares Top 20 U.S. Stocks ETF) around 14.5%. For these funds, Apple is a dominant driver of daily returns.

Just when you thought it was safe to draft a Giants RB, the team signed Najee Harris. Could he be the spoiler in a suddenly crowded backfield?
If you're a Cam Skattebo true believer, or if you plan to add Tyrone Tracy as an insurance policy, there's still a chance that this could all work in your favor. Harris is still returning to form after tearing his Achilles last year. He has only 19 touches since the end of the 2024 season. He has not yet earned a weekly role, and there's a chance he could be a distant third wheel.
More realistically, however, Harris will help stabilize a relatively injury-prone RB corps. Skattebo missed nine games last year and is known for inviting contact. I'd put his over/under on 2026 games played at 13.5. The expectation this summer has been that Tracy would be in line for at least a few spot starts. Although he filled in admirably for Skattebo last year, he regressed a little bit statistically on a per-touch basis, including dips in yards per carry and broken-tackle rate.
The addition of Harris takes some pressure off the Giants to overwork Skattebo, and it also generates competition with Tracy for the 1B role. It's essentially a lose-lose if you've been targeting either of those guys. The only winner is Harris, who has plenty of room to pop based on his current overall-237 / RB66 ADP. We'll know in the next one to two weeks whether he'll be a fantasy spoiler candidate.

The US dollar initially fell against the ******* anese yen in European trading but looks like as we swing into the United States time frame, the dollar is making a little bit of a comeback.
The interest rate differential continues to favor the US dollar over the longer term, and I do like buying dips here whenever I get the opportunity.
The 159 level underneath is a support level, so is the 158.75 level, so I'll be watching both of those if we do pull back in order to find value.
But I have a longer-term position in this pair already. It looks like we're just continuing to see carry traders come in and take advantage of the swap at the end of each session, so I remain bullish.
The US dollar is a little bit softer against the Swiss franc, but it is currently sitting near a support level in the form of 0.8125.

Tate McRae is putting her toned physique front and center in Calvin Klein's latest denim campaign. The 23-year-old singer and dancer stripped her look down to the essentials while posing for the brand's Fall 2026 "Feel the Fit" campaign, photographed by Carlijn Jacobs.
In one striking campaign shot, McRae reclines on a peach carpeted floor against a wall of mirrors. She wears a barely-there black bra with dark-wash Calvin Klein jeans. The low-slung denim sits beneath her belly ***** on, leaving her entire midriff exposed as she leans back against her reflection and poses barefoot.
McRae wore her long blonde hair loose and tousled around her shoulders, keeping the styling minimal and letting the denim and her abs command attention. Her makeup look features bronzed skin, rosy cheeks, and a glossy light pink lip.
The rest of the campaign features the "Sports Car" singer experimenting with several different ways to style Calvin Klein jeans. One image has McRae stretched across a black leather couch in a fitted cropped white T-shirt and roomy dark denim.
She goes barefoot once again, with warm lighting casting dramatic shadows across the frame. Another photo turns up the heat with McRae posing on her hands and knees in the same white baby tee. The denim dips dramatically at the back to reveal the Calvin Klein label.

Today, massive put option trading in Bank of NY Mellon (BNY) shows that some investors are earning a 3.33% 150-day short-put yield. That could imply investors are shorting these puts to establish a potential lower buy-in point for BNY stock ahead of its upcoming earnings, especially if BNY dips.
BNY is at $163.44 in midday trading, and the strike price of this huge volume of BNY puts is $150.00, expiring on Jan. 15, 2027. The chart below shows that BNY stock has been on a 3-month upward trek.

Investors have been piling into a long-dated, in-the-money (ITM) call option contract on Corning Inc. (GLW), as seen in a Barchart report today. That's a very bullish signal from investors, as Corning will benefit from data-center and AI-related demand. This could lead to strong free cash flow (FCF) forecasts.
GLW stock is at $162.09 in midday trading today. That's up from a recent bottom at the end of July ($124.05 on July 29). The company reported strong results on July 28 before the market open and has been rising since.

Analysts have been raising price targets for Cisco Systems (CSCO), which is set to report fiscal Q4 earnings on Aug. 12 (after the market close). CSCO stock has been trading in a range for a while now. Shorting one-month out-of-the-money (OTM) puts and calls is an attractive play that has worked well for investors.
CSCO closed at $121.43 on Friday, which is roughly where it was two months ago. For example, on June 1, it closed at $121.33. That was just two weeks after its last earnings release on May 13.

At first glance, Vistra Corp (VST) doesn't seem like a particularly great investment. It's not just for the matter that VST stock has incurred an 88% Strong Sell rating by the Barchart Technical Opinion indicator, though that is an obvious distraction. Primarily, the ticker's 60-month beta translates to an incredibly choppy trajectory that puts confidence in short supply.
However, as an options trade, we may be able to leverage the wild dynamics of VST stock to our benefit. In essence, Vistra represents a fundamentally relevant enterprise, thanks to the company's integrated retail electricity and power generation. Naturally, artificial intelligence has very strong implications for VST's broader trend.

The uranium fund's history of deep dives offers a tough lesson for anyone tempted by the current discount.
Of the 15 times the Global X Uranium ETF (URA) has taken a steep dive since 2010, 14 are old enough to have a full twelve-month track record, and only 6 of those 14 episodes ended with a positive return. With the fund now sitting about 36% below its 52-week high, you are likely looking at that loss and asking a simple question: is this a bargain, or a warning sign?
For some funds, a dip is a gift. For others, it is a trap. The difference often comes down to what the fund holds. A broad, diversified basket is generally thought to recover more reliably from drawdowns. A concentrated, single-theme fund carries no such ****** umption, it can stay underwater for years if its theme falls out of favor. URA's own history suggests buying its dips is far from a sure thing.
A History of Hard Knocks
When URA has fallen this hard in the past, the typical outcome over the following year was not a rebound. The median return in the twelve months after a dip was negative 4%. While some episodes paid off handsomely, the range of outcomes was wide, from a one-year loss of 47% to a gain of 126%.

SPY's 8.82% early-2026 slide let IRA holders convert shares at a lower taxable value, sheltering the entire rebound inside a Roth permanently.
Filling the 22% bracket during a dip and paying conversion taxes from a taxable account moves every share into the Roth intact.
Since 2018, conversions cannot be undone, and large ones can trigger IRMAA surcharges or push long-term capital gains into a higher rate.

If you have a traditional IRA or an old 401(k), the IRS runs a quiet sale every time the market dips. It is baked into how the tax code prices a Roth conversion: you pay ordinary income tax on the dollar value of what you move, on the day you move it. When your portfolio is down, that bill shrinks even though your share count does not.

The fast-growing Mediterranean chain has a history of rewarding dip-buyers, but the price you'll pay to get in still requires careful consideration.
At Cava (CAVA), the strategy is clear: win on value. While many restaurant peers have been raising prices, Cava's management is playing a different game. On its latest earnings call, the company reiterated its focus on keeping prices down to drive traffic, noting that its price adjustments have been "only slightly more than half of ****** ulative CPI since 2019." It's a bold move designed to build loyalty and gain market share. For investors, however, the stock has recently served up a sharp pullback of about 29% from its recent high. That has you wondering: is this a chance to buy into a winning strategy at a discount, or is it a trap?
The answer starts with history, which offers some encouragement, though on a very small sample size. This isn't the first time the stock has seen a steep drop. The question is what happened next.
How Past Cava Dips Have Played Out
Since going public in 2023, Cava has experienced a drop of this magnitude on 3 separate occasions. For the two prior dips old enough to have a full 1-year result, the median return over the following twelve months was a sizable 123%. That's a powerful bounce-back. However, it wasn't always a straight line up. Buyers typically had to stomach a bit more pain first, with the median worst further drawdown hitting 17% before the recovery took hold. The detailed history in the table below shows the range of outcomes, but the past pattern has been one of eventual, strong recovery.

If you're looking to invest $1,000 in the stock market, it's hard not to like the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSEMKT: VOO). The exchange-traded fund (ETF) tracks the S&P 500, a bucket of 500 prominent U.S. companies. On top of that, you can invest as little as a dollar, the fund charges very low fees, and Vanguard is an iconic and trusted name in the investment community.
Unfortunately, reading the news headlines is stressful these days. People are tossing around frightening words like "recession" or "bubble." Naturally, the fear of losing money can be paralyzing. But history suggests that investing in VOO will likely work out well for you, especially if you have time and patience.

The S&P 500 index is famous for a reason: It might be the most proven wealth-building machine humankind has ever seen. The index is an evolving basket of America's best companies. It weights companies by market cap, so the better a stock performs, the larger it becomes in the index. The index has generated an annualized return of 10.33% since 1957. In other words, your money would double about every seven years.
Of course, that's annualized, so it smooths out the spikes and dips, and to be clear, it's not always a smooth ride. The stock market is a collective of human emotions, so things can go to extremes -- in both directions, now and then. There have been outright market crashes throughout history, including the Great Depression in 1929 and the COVID-19 pandemic nearly a century later.

Semiconductor investors have been here before. After a scorching run, chip stocks have tumbled again, with memory names sliding more than 20% into bear market territory and the broader group shedding hundreds of billions in value.
In the current artificial intelligence (AI) cycle, that kind of drop has repeatedly turned out to be a tech buying opportunity rather than a warning. The question worth asking now is whether the pattern will hold one more time.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Throughout this cycle, sharp sell-offs in chip stocks have tended to reverse quickly. When Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO) spooked the market with cautious guidance earlier this year, the sector shed more than $1 trillion in value in a matter of days, then rebounded as investors remembered that AI infrastructure spending was still climbing. The reason the dips kept getting bought is simple: Demand kept reaccelerating faster than supply. Global chip sales hit a record in 2025 and are forecast to jump again in 2026, with AI-related chips accounting for roughly half of the total. As long as data center build-outs stayed hungry and memory stayed in short supply, every pullback looked cheap in hindsight.
Here is the sober counterpoint. Semiconductors reside in a highly cyclical corner of the market, and history has shown that not all rebounds are quick or universal. Past downturns have carried the sector down 30%, 50%, even 80% from its highs, and those busts always followed a familiar script: Surging demand invites a wave of new capacity, and eventually supply catches up and prices fall. Warnings that the memory shortage could flip into oversupply by 2027 or 2028 are getting louder. A 20% dip is a gift right up until the cycle turns, at which point the same "buy the dip" instinct becomes a trap.

Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) is one of the 10 Best Stocks to Buy in 2026 According to Billionaire D.E. Shaw.
Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) has shaped up to be one of the hottest stocks on the market. The shares are up by 711% over the past year and by 214% year-to-date. More recently, the shares have struggled and have had to contend with several dips. As Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) is the only American company capable of manufacturing high end memory chips, its ability to cater to the AI industry has been at the center of debate for the firm. For instance, Phillip Securities kept a Buy rating on the shares and raised the share price target to $1,870 from $530 on June 29th. The financial firm discussed Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU)'s ability to enter into more long term agreements, as it outlined that it expects the current memory chip shortage to extend beyond 2027.
Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) also announced on July 9th that it would invest an additional $3 billion into chip manufacturing facilities in America. The investment builds on the firm's earlier plans. Its chief procurement officer outlined that "securing a reliable supply of critical input materials is essential to supporting Micron's long-term growth and technology roadmap."

ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Strategy discussed Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:

The Los Angeles Rams have built their roster with a plethora of versatile players who contribute on offense, defense and/or special teams. As a result, the team has been able to weather slow starts, injuries, and other setbacks over the last three seasons, being one of the most successful franchises in football over that time.
A big reason for their success has been Kyren Williams. Despite taking on three separate roles over the last three seasons, the Rams running back remains a successful ball carrier, pass catcher, and pass protector. It's that versatility that makes him such a success in fantasy football, despite his ever-changing responsibilities. NBC Sports' Kyle Dvorchak states that despite a decreased workload as a ball carrier, his fantasy production remained consistent compared to years past.
Kyren Williams chugged along like usual, posting 15.5 PPR points per game off the back of over 1,500 yards from scrimmage and 13 touchdowns. Williams finished the year as a low-end RB1, though his role changed drastically compared to 2024.
Despite losing a considerable amount of work to Blake Corum, Williams’ fantasy output barely dropped. That comes down to the fact that his efficiency both on the ground and through the air ticked up. The concern for Williams is that he either continues to lose work to Corum or his yards per carry dips, as it did in 2024 when he averaged 4.1 yards per attempt.
With Corum set to have an even larger role, especially with the Rams' 13-personnel offense becoming an even bigger part of their operation, some could have concerns that 2026 could be the year Williams fails to reach 1,000 rushing yards or takes a dramatic fall in fantasy production.

PHILADELPHIA — One team jumped the board, big time. Two brothers were reunited with the Brew Crew. And it wasn’t the greatest day to be a pitcher.
While Major League Baseball’s draft began in relatively predictable fashion — UCLA shortstop Roch Cholowsky was chosen first overall by the Chicago White Sox, despite some smoke and a few mirrors in recent days — it also had its share of unforeseen turns.
USA TODAY Sports breaks down the first round and a little bit beyond as the game’s annual selection meeting tipped off at Philadelphia’s Convention Center on Saturday, June 11:
Perhaps general managers took one of the most cynical phrases of scouting — “There’s no such thing as a pitching prospect” — a little too literally. This draft made history when 15 of the first 16 players selected were hitters. The San Francisco Giants the only ones zagging by taking UC Santa Barbara right-hander Jackson Flora fourth overall. After that, a pitcher didn’t get selected until the Texas Rangers took Gio Rojas, the lefty from Florida baseball factory Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, with the 16th pick.
What gives? Well, many of the anticipated top college arms had concerns. Cameron Flukey missed time with a rib fracture this year, leaving him available to the Detroit Tigers at No. 22. Logan Reddenmann and Cole Carlon each suffered velocity dips late in the year, leaving them available to the Colorado Rockies and Toronto Blue Jays, respectively, at picks 38 and 39. And a bevy of SEC pitchers — from Florida’s Liam Peterson (19th, Guardians) to Arkansas’ Hunter Dietz (35th, Yankees) and Carson Wiggins (27th, Mets) had command or health concerns that suppressed their value.

Businesses and governments managed to keep energy prices from skyrocketing as much as feared during the Iran war by leaning into a "just-in-time" delivery system that harnesses innovations in digital and satellite technology and that reduces the need to stockpile barrels of oil.
Call it the "Amazon of oil," said Jim Wicklund, a veteran oil ****** yst and managing director at the PPHB energy investment firm, comparing energy industry dynamics to the ecommerce giant's famous mastery of inventory and logistics.
Even with President Trump declaring the Iran ceasefire "over" on Wednesday amid a fresh exchange of military strikes, the U.S. benchmark for crude prices still only spiked about 5% to $74 per barrel—way below the mid-May high of $112.
While energy traders may see the latest attacks and verbal barbs as dips along the negotiation rollercoaster, they've also been encouraged by the adaptability of global energy logistics, even amid the greatest global energy shock of the modern age when the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz temporarily cut off almost 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas supplies.
"When you go back to the 1970s when we had the oil shocks, you had no way of knowing what oil was where and what it was doing," Wicklund told Fortune. "Today, I can hit my terminal and find every tanker full of oil on the ocean, who owns it, what's in it, and who to call to get it diverted to me. So, inventories have not meant nearly as much to oil prices here in the last few years as they used to.

The Euro has gone back and forth during the early part of the Tuesday session as we find ourselves just hanging around above the 1.14 level. The 1.14 level, of course, is a round figure that a lot of people will be watching very closely, with the idea being that traders are just simply hanging out, looking for a reason to get moving. It is worth noting that we are in the midst of forming a potential bearish flag, opening up a drop down to the 1.12 level, and that would not surprise me. I like the idea of fading rallies.
The US dollar continues to form a bullish flag against the Swiss franc, and I do think that it is probably only a matter of time before we look to the 0.82 level. Breaking above the 0.82 level opens up the possibility of a move to the 0.84 level. Short-term pullbacks, I think, continue to see support near the 50-day EMA, which is now hanging around the 200-day EMA, and therefore, I think the so-called golden cross will probably attract longer-term bulls. This is a pair that I've been long in for some time, and I will be wanting to add to the upside here.
The US dollar initially dropped against the ***** anese yen, but we continue to see a lot of noise in this pair as traders are looking for a continuation to the upside. That being said, keep in mind that the Bank of ***** an recently intervened in the market, and even if they do intervene, you can see that buyers come back in to take advantage of the interest rate differential.
That's typical in these types of markets as central banks generally intervene to keep things from getting out of hand; they're not necessarily able to influence the market longer-term most times. At this point, I look at the 160-yen level as your floor. I like the idea of buying dips and have held for quite some time in this market.

The fund's past suggests deep pullbacks often rebound, but what's inside the basket makes this time a unique decision.
Of the 5 times the ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (ARKW) has fallen this steeply, 4 were followed by a positive return over the next twelve months. That is the kind of record that makes a dip feel like an opportunity. With the fund currently down about 17.7% from its 52-week high, you are likely weighing whether its history of bouncing back is a reliable guide, or if this time is different.
A dip can be a gift in a broad, diversified fund. In a concentrated one, it can be a trap. The question is where ARKW sits on that spectrum, and its own past offers a mixed verdict.
What Did Those Recoveries Actually Look Like?
The historical record is encouraging, but not without its sharp edges. For those four successful recoveries, the median return in the twelve months after a dip was +30%. But that median hides a wide spread of outcomes. Across all five instances, the one-year returns ranged from a painful negative 65% to a strong +61%. This tells us that while the odds have favored a rebound, the ride has been anything but uniform. Past dips, like the ones in December 2021 and April 2023, presented similar crossroads for investors.

The creative software giant is prioritizing significant user growth over short-term financial stability, prompting investors to re-evaluate the company's long-term value.
At Adobe (ADBE), the mission is clear: go get the users. The company is in the middle of a major strategic shift, aggressively pushing a "freemium" model to bring hundreds of millions of new people into its ecosystem through tools like Firefly and Express. Management is being upfront about the cost, stating on its latest call that "The strategic shift to acquire more freemium customers lowers our second half ARR growth expectations from individual subscribers." This pivot comes as the stock has pulled back from its recent highs.
For investors, this creates a sharp question. When a great company's stock gets cheaper, it can be a gift. But this pullback is happening alongside a deliberate, near-term hit to a key growth metric. So, is this dip an opportunity to own a stronger future Adobe, or is it a trap set by near-term uncertainty? Let's look at the evidence.
When you buy a dip, you're hoping for a quick and profitable rebound. History, however, suggests that for Adobe, it's rarely that simple. Looking back to 2010, the stock has seen 12 sharp drops of 20% or more within a single month. The record of buying those dips is decidedly mixed.
Of those 12 instances, only 6 resulted in a positive return over the following year. The median return after twelve months was actually a negative 4%. Buyers who stepped in also had to stomach more pain before any potential recovery; the median worst further drawdown after buying was 17%. In short, history shows that buying a steep drop in Adobe has resulted in positive returns about half the time, often involving a significant wait and further downside.

Feyenoord have moved decisively after the end of the Robin van Persie era, confirming Giovanni van Bronckhorst as their new head coach.
It is a return loaded with logic, emotion and expectation. For Feyenoord, Giovanni van Bronckhorst is not simply a familiar name. He is a former player, a **** le-winning manager and someone who understands the particular rhythm of De Kuip.
Robin van Persie’s first full season brought Feyenoord a second-place Eredivisie finish and Champions League qualification. On paper, that is hardly a disaster.
Yet football clubs rarely make decisions on league position alone. Feyenoord finished 19 points behind PSV Eindhoven, and that gap told its own story. There were extended dips in form, questions over consistency and criticism around Van Persie’s man-management.
After an internal review, Feyenoord chose to remove the 42-year-old despite one year remaining on his contract.

Bitcoin Dips Below $80K as ****** ysts Say Profit-Taking Is on the Rise

Bitcoin rallied to nearly $82,500 on Wednesday for the first time since January—but has slipped in the last 24 hours to recently trade below $80,000.
The broader move, which has seen the top crypto ****** et gain more than 17% in the last month, is still part of a “bear market rally,” according to ****** ysts at CryptoQuant. And as profit levels grow, Bitcoin may be on the precipice of more selling.
“Bitcoin holders realized 14.6K BTC in daily profits on May 4, the highest level since December 10, as the 37% rally from the April lows pushed holders back into profitable territory,” the firm wrote, noting that the surge has created the “first significant profit realization event since December 2025” as short-term holders have been locking in gains since mid-April.
“Historically in bear markets, spikes in realized profits at key resistance levels precede local price tops or sustained consolidation phases,” the firm continued.
According to CryptoQuant’s data, the 30-day net realized profit for Bitcoin traders has climbed back into positive territory, meaning that more holders have notched gains than losses during that time—a move it called a “structural inflection point” in market dynamics.
