Fundstrat strategist Sean Farrell says he would buy heavily if the Bitcoin price falls, but not go all in yet.

Sean Farrell, Fundstrat’s head of digital asset strategy, says crypto is becoming more attractive for longer-term investors, telling Coinage in a July 13 interview that the market is “getting to the point where the risk-reward for crypto is looking a lot better than equities.” He said:

“I do think that we are getting to the point where the risk-reward for crypto is looking a lot better than equities. If we get to that low $50K range, I’ll certainly be backing up the truck … I think it would be a huge, huge opportunity for folks.”

But Farrell is not making a case for an imminent surge in the price of Bitcoin because higher interest rate expectations, high real rates and volatility in the Middle East can keep putting pressure on the cryptocurrency.

Why Bitcoin Has Lagged Stocks

Farrell argued that stocks have had the stronger case because corporate earnings have been growing faster than global liquidity.

That provided an incentive for investors to remain invested in companies posting higher profits instead of switching to Bitcoin which performs better in loose financial conditions. Farrell explained:

“If you look at the growth in global liquidity and compare that to the growth in earnings, you’ve had the growth in earnings per share outpace the growth in liquidity. In that environment, you should favor those productive assets that are growing at a rapid pace”

However, he expects that balance may begin to shift over the next three to six months. Should liquidity start growing faster, investors could once again turn toward Bitcoin and other assets that tend to perform well when money becomes easier to access.

Strategy Risk Has Eased, but It Has Not Disappeared

Commenting on Michael Saylor’s Bitcoin treasury giant Strategy, Farrell said the company doesn’t pose an “imminent unwind risk,” though it could remain a longer-term threat if Bitcoin stays flat for years.

For Farrell, a move into the low $50,000s could still happen, but after the market absorbed Strategy’s first sales without triggering a wider collapse, such a drop may now look more like a long-term entry point than the beginning of a crisis.
