Summary
Major cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, largely held their gains near record levels even as global equity markets and other risk assets came under pressure. Investor Michael Burry warned that tech and AI-related stocks are in a parabolic, overvalued phase, urging investors to take profits as semiconductor shares and the Nasdaq 100 trade at stretched valuations. Rising oil prices, higher Treasury yields and renewed U.S.-Iran tensions, along with a key U.S. inflation report due Tuesday, threaten to test the recent rally in both equities and crypto markets. Bitcoin BTC $ 81,002.49 traded over $81,000 in Asian morning hours Tuesday after briefly touching $82,026 overnight.
