Bitcoin, gold

According to the Tudor Investment CIO, the market has commodities “ridiculously under-owned” and that’s why he’s bullish on the commodities as well. Jones also has Nasdaq as a long term bet – despite who wins the US presidential election. Data on Polymarket shows most crypto traders on the platform lean Donald Trump.

While he takes a bullish outlook on BTC gold and commodities in general, Jones is bearish on bonds amid worrying government spending. He believes if the government does not get serious about this, it’s a scenario that could see the bond market hit a major sell-off.

Amid this outlook, the hedge fund manager does not also plan to own any fixed income.

“The question is after this election will we have a Minsky moment here in the United States and U.S. debt markets?” he commented.

Bitcoin price hovered around $67,500 at the time of writing on Tuesday, Oct. 22, up 52% year-to-date and 125% over the past year. The cryptocurrency rallied to an all-time high of $73k in March.

Meanwhile, gold has been on a tear in recent weeks. As of Tuesday, the precious metal’s price ticked $2,747.68 for an all-time high. Gold price has increased over 33% year-to-date.
