Bitcoin now trades at less than $67,200 and is getting destroyed.
In fact, it last traded at $67,129 – which is great news for traders that are short related stocks, such as Robinhood (HOOD) and Strategy (MSTR), which just saw its price target by analysts at Canaccord. Both have become falling knives and could drop even more.
Until Bitcoin shows some signs of bottoming out – which may not happen any time soon – both of those stocks are solid short opportunities. More bearish forecasts see Bitcoin falling below $60,000, with extreme downside scenarios pointing to levels near $30,000.
