WHY THIS REPORT MATTERS

April 9 was a pivotal day for Bitcoin mining companies; some have since risen 50%. Most investors missed it. Our pattern analysis caught several of those moves (see Signals table). Crypto equities have been a rich source of alpha for both equity and crypto traders. Our CIO Strategy publication includes a weekly chart book on crypto equities and why stocks moved that week. Here is our current view across the three categories: diversified crypto equities, crypto treasury companies, and Bitcoin miners, and where we still see opportunities for the weeks ahead.

In our February 20 report, we flagged Circle as a short-squeeze candidate: with 18% of Circle shares being sold short, most of those shorts were underwater, and the earnings catalyst was imminent. Our valuation model puts Circle's fair value in the $80–$120/130 range. Below $80 is cheap; above $120/130 is expensive. At current levels, the shares are mid-range, neither a compelling buy nor a reason to sell. By March 10, we rotated out of Circle and into direct Bitcoin beta via MicroStrategy, selling a covered call at the $160 June strike for $15 to manage downside.

Below, we break down the current opportunities in crypto equities.
