January 31, a JPMorgan analyst said that Bitcoin futures appear to be in oversold territory, while gold and silver futures have entered overbought territory. This is because investors, whether through retail or institutional channels, are increasingly favoring precious metals over Bitcoin.Headed by Managing Director Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, JPMorgan analysts noted in a report on Wednesday that for much of 2025, retail investors engaged in the so-called "debasement trade," simultaneously buying Bitcoin and gold ETFs. However, this trend shifted around August: cumulative inflows into Bitcoin ETFs stalled and turned into net outflows in the fourth quarter.The analysts pointed out that during the same period, inflows into gold ETFs saw a significant increase, with nearly $60 billion in net inflows for the year. They added that inflows into silver ETFs were also concentrated mainly in the final quarter of 2025, coinciding with outflows from Bitcoin ETFs, indicating a shift of retail investor funds from Bitcoin to precious metals.The analysts believe that institutional behavior has reinforced this shift. According to JPMorgan's Institutional Futures Positioning Proxy, estimated based on changes in open interest of Chicago Mercantile Exchange futures contracts, hedge funds' significant long positions drove a sharp increase in silver long positions from the fourth quarter of 2025 to early 2026. Similar positioning trends have been observed in gold futures for much of the past year.In contrast, the analysts stated that Bitcoin futures positions have not seen similar growth over the past year.The analysts used momentum indicators to track Commodity Trading Advisors and other trend-following traders' positions, which showed a clear differentiation among the three assets. The analysts noted that gold futures are already overbought, silver futures are currently in severe overbought territory, and Bitcoin futures are in oversold territory. They added that such positioning increases the risk of profit-taking or mean reversion in gold and silver in the short term.

January 31st, Wintermute founder Evgeny Gaevoy posted on social media:In fact, I would prefer public figures to speak cautiously. The market volatility on October 10th was obviously not a so-called "software glitch," but a flash crash in a highly leveraged market triggered by macro news on a low-liquidity Friday evening. Since we're talking about this, I also understand that no one likes a bear market—watching all asset classes except crypto assets rise. While finding a scapegoat is easy, blaming a single trading platform is not honest from a cognitive perspective.

January 31st, Citigroup Friday said that the gold investment allocation is supported by a series of intertwined geopolitical and economic risks, but about half of these risks may dissipate later this year.Citibank said that some core risk factors supporting gold demand — including concerns about U.S. government debt and AI uncertainty — could lead to the gold price remaining at elevated levels above historical averages.However, the bank estimated that most of the risk currently priced into the gold price will not truly materialize by 2026, or even if it does, it will not hold beyond 2026. The bank added: "We see the Trump administration working to achieve 'American-style gold stability' during the 2026 midterm elections, and we also see the end of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the eventual easing of the Iran situation, all of which will mean a relative decline in risk compared to current levels. If Powell's nomination is approved, this will further confirm our long-held view that the Fed continues to maintain its political independence. This view is another mid-term negative factor affecting the gold price." (Oriental Wealth)
