Bitunix Analyst: US Expands "Stocks for Boosters" to TSMC or Samsung; ETH Key Support at 4100 to 4150 for Rebound

5 hours ago

August 20th: According to insiders, the U.S. Commerce Secretary Raimondo is advocating for a government stake in exchange for subsidies under the "Chip Act". The scope may potentially expand from Intel to Micron, TSMC, and Samsung. The White House has confirmed that it is collaborating with Intel on a 10% government stake deal, and some existing subsidies may be renegotiated. This move is likely to enhance the U.S.'s discourse power in the AI supply chain but has also triggered governance and fiscal controversies. In the crypto market, there is a notable buying interest around 4100 - 4150 for ETH, with secondary support at 3900 - 4000. Bitunix analyst's recommendation: If the "Stock-for-Subsidy" plan is put into practice, it is expected that AI capital expenditures and risk appetite will rise; conversely, if policy progress is hindered, volatility will increase. It is recommended that investors focus on policy developments and the technological stock funding landscape, and avoid chasing short-term fluctuations in heavily liquidated zones. For ETH, adopt a medium- to long-term strategy with risk budgeting, and focus on monitoring changes in the AI supply chain and U.S. dollar liquidity.

Capital Economics: Market Overestimating Fed Rate Cut Prospects, US Short-Term Rates Face Upside Risk

On August 20th, Kevin Thozet, a member of the TCW Group Macro Investment Committee, stated in a report that there are upward risks to the US short-term interest rate, and the market is overly confident about the prospects of the Fed's interest rate cuts. The US money market has already priced in at least two interest rate cuts this year, which reflects the market's expectation that signs of a further slowdown in the US economy and inflation will emerge. Thozet said: "Considering the resilience of the US economy, policy uncertainty, and the persistence of inflation pressure, we believe this expectation is too high." The trend of long-term US Treasury bond yields is more balanced. The current 10-year US Treasury bond yield at 4.300% is expected to fluctuate within a range of approximately 50 basis points above and below the current level. (FXStreet)

If Ethereum drops below $4,000, the cumulative long liquidation pressure from major CEXs will reach $1.841 billion

On August 20th, based on Coinglass data, if Ethereum drops below $4000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of mainstream CEX in terms of long positions will reach $1.841 billion. On the other hand, if Ethereum rebounds above $4300, the cumulative liquidation intensity of mainstream CEX in terms of short positions will reach $1.88 billion. BlockBeats Note: The liquidation chart does not display the exact number of contracts to be liquidated or the precise value of the contracts to be liquidated. The bars on the liquidation chart actually represent the significance of each liquidation cluster in relation to adjacent liquidation clusters, that is, the intensity. Therefore, the liquidation chart shows to what extent the price of the underlying asset will be impacted when it reaches a certain position. Higher "liquidation bars" indicate that the price will have a more pronounced reaction due to a liquidity cascade when it reaches that point.
