Asian Stocks Slide on Bond Stress: Will Safe Havens BTC and Gold Keep Rallying？

Most Asian share indices are headed for weekly losses as bond market stress persists. However, Bitcoin (BTC) and gold both rallied as investors reached for safe havens instead.　　The moves reflect a broader flight from risk.

Avalanche: Why AVAXs rally faces THIS test after $2.4M whale deposit

Avalanche [$AVAX] encountered exchange-side selling pressure after a whale transferred tokens worth $2.4 million into Coinbase.　　The whale transferred the tokens in multiple transactions over a period of 4 hours. Besides, the wallet retained over 865,400 $AVAX, worth $5.73 million, after completing those deposits. Notably, the remaining holdings carried additional supply implications because the whale was yet to stake the tokens.　　Therefore, those tokens remained liquid and potentially available for further transfers toward exchanges. With the broader crypto market experiencing gains today, $AVAXs price rose 6.8% to $6.79 in 24 hours, at press time.　　Market activity was also substantially higher, with daily volume rising by 129.52% to about $415 million. That growth provided even more space for buyers to absorb incoming supply without having to sell the recovery immediately.　　However, more whale deposits may necessitate the need for more demand near the resistance level.　　Top traders kept leaning toward longs　　Bullish positioning among Binances top traders complemented the sharp expansion in $AVAX trading activity. The top trader accounts consisted of 65.82% long and 34.18% short accounts.　　Accordingly, this resulted in a Long/Short Ratio of 1.93 as of writing, giving bullish accounts a substantial numerical advantage. This positioning strengthened the demand argument behind $AVAXs recovery toward the upper

Ex-Fed Chief Dudley Warns Stocks Are in Bubble Territory as Treasury Boosts Buybacks

Bill Dudley, a former president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, says the US stock market is in bubble territory, pointing to stretched valuations and a slowing artificial intelligence (AI) investment cycle.　　Dudley made the comments on Bloomberg Television this week, as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent moves to contain a sharp rise in long-term bond yields.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Stretched Valuations Underpin the Bubble Call　　Dudley pointed to the Shiller CAPE ratio, the Shiller cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings (CAPE) ratio, which sits near 41. That compares with a 25 to 30-year average of about 17, and a record of 44 set in December 1999. In simple terms, investors are paying far more for each dollar of company earnings than history suggests is safe.　　He also cited the Buffett Indicator, the ratio of stock market value to gross domestic product (GDP), which stands around 240%.
