Serenity: Negative News in US Stocks May Serve as Accumulation Tactics for Institutions, Luring Retail Investors to Hand Over Shares

On June 11, 'White-haired Stock God' Serenity posted on platform X, stating that during the cycle of new technological architecture shifts, retail investors often take the lead in positioning, while institutional funds gradually take over and dominate market pricing in subsequent stages. Taking stocks like SIVE, NBIS, and RKLB as examples, these stocks initially had a low proportion of institutional holdings, but as institutions continued to increase their stakes, the stock prices eventually reached historical highs. Serenity believes that the current decline in the US stock market and the emergence of negative sentiments towards certain listed companies may be related to some institutions needing to acquire liquidity and accumulate shares at lower levels. In recent years, when certain sell-side institutions have released negative research reports or when the market has seen concentrated negative news, it often coincides with a phase of institutional accumulation. Investors need to conduct independent research and establish their own investment logic, and should not be easily swayed by market noise. The modern liquidity cycle of the US capital market essentially often manifests as a transfer of holdings from retail investors to institutions, and this process may not necessarily align with the interests of retail investors.

  • First Tokenized Stock Trading Venues May Emerge Next Quarter

    On September 22, Taylor Lindman, Chief Legal Counsel of the SEC's Crypto Special Working Group, stated in an interview that under the SEC's five-year "Innovation Exemption" framework, the first compliant tokenized stock trading venues could gradually take shape as early as next quarter. This exemption has officially come into effect, allowing qualified platforms to conduct tokenized trading of U.S. stocks on public blockchains through licensed automated market makers (AMMs) and liquidity pools. Institutions planning to enter this space are required to issue operational notices and report to the SEC within one business day after publication. These public notices will also serve as important signals for the market to assess which companies are entering this sector. Lindman anticipates that there will be some delay in companies submitting relevant notices, likely falling within the next quarter. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and Lindman both emphasized that this model "leans more towards on-chain finance rather than true DeFi," as each trading platform has a clear operating entity responsible for compliance, rather than being completely decentralized peer-to-peer finance.
