Opinion: Bitcoin's holiday performance runs counter to the "Christmas robbery" hypothesis

According to on-chain analyst Ai Aunt's analysis reported by Jinse Finance, the performance of Bitcoin during the Christmas & New Year's Day holidays in the past five years has shown significant volatility between December 20th and January 6th, but the actual price fluctuations, except for the particularly drastic ones in 2020, have remained within 10% in the other years. However, 80% of the years have shown good performance in the following two months, and if the bottom-fishing time is narrowed down to the week after New Year's Day, there is still a 60% chance of profit.

Observing the performance of the NASDAQ index in the past five years during the Christmas period, there has been significant volatility, but the overall price fluctuations have been small, so it can be inferred that the end of the holiday will not have a significant negative impact on Bitcoin in the US stock market.

In summary, although this bull market is greatly affected by the inflow and outflow of BTC ETF, the NASDAQ index did not show a significant decline during the Christmas period and after, which has little impact on cryptocurrencies. The price performance of Bitcoin itself is contrary to the speculation of the "Christmas robbery".

  • Morgan Stanley: 2028 as a Key Observation Point for Global Memory Competition Landscape

    On August 29, Morgan Stanley pointed out that the rise of Chinese memory manufacturers should not be viewed merely as a technological catch-up or low-cost substitution; what is truly noteworthy is that their production capacity may gradually become large enough to alter the supply structure of the global memory market. Changxin Technology and Yangtze Memory Technologies are currently entering the mainstream product market and gradually extending into high-profit markets such as HBM, high-end server DRAM, and enterprise SSDs. Morgan Stanley considers 2028 as an important observation point for the global memory competition landscape. From 2026 to 2027, demand for AI servers, capacity crowding of advanced wafers by HBM, import substitution, and the time required for customer certification may absorb most of the new supply from Chinese memory manufacturers. By 2028, as Chinese manufacturers expand production, the additional capacity from Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, which had previously initiated expansions, will also be released. At that time, the supply variables in the global memory market will significantly increase. Morgan Stanley estimates that Changxin's DRAM monthly production capacity will rise from 180,000 wafers in 2025 to 300,000 in 2026, accounting for approximately 13% of global DRAM wafer capacity and about 11% of bit shipments; by 2028, it is expected to further increase to 500,000 wafers, and by 2031, it could reach 800,000 wafers. If the expansion proceeds smoothly, Changxin's global DRAM bit shipment market share could approach 15% by 2030, and it may even have the opportunity to surpass Micron in production capacity around 2028, becoming the third-largest DRAM supplier in the world.
