Our Research and Investment Management analysts Michael Cyprys and Denny Galindo discuss how and why cryptocurrencies are transitioning from niche speculation to portfolio staples. Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michael Cyprys: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Cyprys, Head of U.S. Brokers, Asset Managers and Exchanges for Morgan Stanley Research.Denny Galindo: And I'm Denny Galindo, Investment Strategist for Morgan Stanley Wealth Management.Michael Cyprys: Today we break down the forces making crypto more accessible and what this shift means for investors everywhere.It's Tuesday, November 11th at 10am in New York.We've seen cryptocurrencies move from the fringes of finance to being considered a legitimate part of mainstream asset allocation. Financial platforms, especially those serving institutional clients, are starting to integrate crypto more than ever.Denny, you've written extensively about the crypto market for some time now among your many jobs here at Morgan Stanley. So, from your perspective in wealth management, what are you hearing from retail clients about their growing interest in crypto?Denny Galindo: Yeah, we actually started writing about crypto back in 2017. We had our first explainer deck, and we started writing extensive educational reports in 2021. So, we've covered it for a while.Advisors who dabble in crypto typically had this one client. He asked a lot of questions about when they could do more. We also had some clients who were curious, maybe their neighbor made a lot of money, bought a new boat and they were like wondering, you know, what is this Bitcoin thing?Now, this year we've seen a sea change. I think it was the election really started it; the Genius Act, and some of the legislation also kind of added to it. Almost all this interest is really on Bitcoin only, although we also have gotten a decent amount of interest about stablecoins and how those might impact things. But it's really just the beginning and I think it's an area that's; it's not going to go away.Mike, on the institutional side, what trends are you seeing among asset managers and brokers in terms of crypto adoption integration?Michael Cyprys: So, we've seen a big move into the ETF space as large money managers make crypto easier to access for both retail and institutional investors. Now this comes on the back of the SEC approving the first spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs back in 2024. And since then, we've seen firms from BlackRock to Fidelity, Franklin, Invesco, and many others, including crypto native firms having launched spot Bitcoin ETFs and spot Ethereum ETFs. And these steps in the minds of many investors have legitimized crypto as an investible asset class.Most recently, we've seen the SEC adopt generic ETF listing standards for crypto ETFs that can make it easier to accelerate ETF launches in reduced regulatory frictions. And today the crypto ETF space is about $200 billion of assets under management and saw inflows of over [$]40 billion last year, over [$]45 billion so far this year – despite some of the near-term volatility. And most of the asset class today is in Bitcoin, single token ETFs, with BlackRock and Fidelity managing the largest ETFs in the space.Speaking of products, what types of crypto are retail investors most curious about? And why do those particular ones make sense for their portfolios?Denny Galindo: Yeah, I think you hit the nail on the head. The most popular products are really the Bitcoin products. We as a firm allowed solicitation in Bitcoin ETPs more than a year ago in brokerage accounts. We just expanded them to allow them in Advisory in October. So, we're still early days here. There really hasn't been that much interest in the other crypto products.Now when people think about this, there's three buckets here. There are some people that think of it like digital gold. And they're worried about inflation. They're worried about government deficits. And that's kind of the angle that they're approaching crypto from. A second group think of it like a venture capital, like a disruptive innovation in tech that's going after this big addressable market. And, you know, hopefully the penetration will rise in the future. And then the third bucket is really thinking [of it] out it as a diversifier. So, they're saying, ‘Hey, this thing is volatile. It doesn't match stocks, bonds, other assets. And so, I kind of want to use it for diversification.'Now, Mike, when you have these discussions with institutional clients, how do they view the risk and potential of these different cryptocurrencies?Michael Cyprys: What's interesting with the crypto space is adoption started on the retail side with institutions now slowly beginning to explore allocations. And that's the opposite of what we've seen historically with institutions leaning in ahead of retail in areas, whether it's commodities or private markets. But it's still early days.On the institutional side, we're starting to see some pensions, endowments, foundations begin to make some small allocations to Bitcoin as a long-term inflation hedge. But keep in mind, institutions tend to make investments in the context of strategic asset allocations, often with a broader macro framework.Denny, you've written quite a bit about the four-year crypto cycle. Could you explain what that is and where you think we are in the current crypto cycle?Denny Galindo: Yeah, if you look at the data, you see a pretty clear trend of a four-year cycle. So, there's three up years and one down year, and it's been like clockwork, since Bitcoin was invented.Now when you see something like that, you always try to explain like: why is this happening? So, there's two kind of dominant explanations that we've seen. So, one's macro, one's micro. Now the macro version for crypto is really the M2 cycle. So, we see that M2 to that global M2 money supply has kind of accelerated and decelerated in four-year cycles, and Bitcoin tends to really match that cycle. It tends to accelerate when M2's accelerating and it tends to decline when it's decelerating or declining.But there's also this bottoms-up way of looking at it, and commodities are really the place we go to for that analysis. So, a lot of commodities, you know, could be coffee, could be oil – if something disrupts supply, you tend to get the shortage, you get the price moving up.Then you get commodity speculators piling in, adding leverage. And it'll just kind of go parabolic. At some point something pops the bubble, usually more supply, and then you get like a great depression. You get like an 80 percent draw down. All the leverage comes out and the whole thing crashes. So crypto has also followed that.Now, we break the four-year cycle into four seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. And each season has a different characteristic about which parts of the market work, which don't work, what things look like. We are in the fall season right now. And that tends to last about a year. We wrote a note last year on this. Fall is the time for harvest. So, it's the time you want to take your gains.But the debate is, you know, how long will this fall last? When will the next winter start? Or maybe this pattern won't even hold in the future. And so, this is the big debate in the crypto circles these days.And Mike, given the volatility, given the great depressions we talked about in Bitcoin with these, you know, 70-80 percent drawdowns, how do you see it fitting into institutional portfolios compared to other cryptocurrencies?Michael Cyprys: Compared to other cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin is still viewed as the flagship asset within the crypto space – just given higher adoption, greater liquidity, the sheer market value. It has longer history and better regulatory clarity as compared to other tokens. But given the volatility as you mentioned, and the early days nature of cryptocurrencies, adoption is still quite nascent amongst institutional investors.Some institutional investors view Bitcoin as digital gold or macro hedge against inflation and monetary debasement. It's also sometimes viewed as a low correlation diversifier within multi-asset portfolios. But even that's also been a debate in the marketplace too.As we look forward from here, crypto adoption within institutional portfolios could potentially expand as regulatory clarity establishes a clear framework for digital assets, right? We had the Genius Act recently that focused on stablecoins. Next up is market structure. There's a bill working its way through Congress.We've also had developments on the ETF side that lower[s] barriers for institutions to gain exposure there. Not only is it more accessible within traditional portfolios, but the ETF fits nicely into day-to-day workflow.So, bottom line is institutional views on Bitcoin and crypto are evolving, and how firms view Bitcoin – we think will depend upon the institution's objectives, their risk tolerance and portfolio context. And keep in mind that institutional allocations don't turn on a dime. They tend to be slower moving.Denny, do retail clients take a similar approach or are they more likely to take bigger bets?Denny Galindo: Our clients struggle with this question. And so, we get a lot of questions like, ‘Okay, I don't want to miss this. I'm a little nervous about it. What allocation should I use here?' And so, we go back to our three, kind of, typical investors when we try to answer this question. We really try and help people figure out where is equal weight.So, we wrote a note in February called “Are you Underweight Bitcoin?” And we have three different answers depending on how you're thinking of it. And, you know, there's a big debate. There's no clear answer. And that's not really where we want our clients. We want them to be smaller where they can have some exposure if they want it. Not everyone wants it, but if you do want it, you can have it. And it won't really dominate the volatility of the portfolio.Now, on another note, Mike, are you seeing legacy platforms start to offer crypto as well?Michael Cyprys: So crypto ETFs are generally available in self-directed brokerage accounts across the industry today. Schwab, for example, commented that their customers hold $25 billion in crypto ETFs, which is about, call it 20 percent share of the ETF space. But access to these crypto ETFs is a bit more restricted within the Advisor-led channel. But we're starting to see that broaden out for ETFs and eventually might see model portfolios with allocations toward crypto ETFs.But when you look at spot crypto trading, though, that generally remains out of reach of most legacy platforms. The key hurdle for that has been regulatory clarity and with a more crypto friendly administration that is changing here.So, Schwab, for example, acknowledged that they have the regulatory clarity needed and they're working towards launching their spot crypto trading platform in the first half of next year.On that topic, Denny, how do you view the merits of holding crypto directly versus through an exchange-traded product like ETFs?Denny Galindo: Yeah, I mean, our clients are mostly not day trading this product and kind of moving it back and forth.So, the ETPs have been a pretty good answer for them. The one issue is liquidity. And so, we're not used to thinking of this in; the U.S. equity markets are the most liquid markets. But in crypto, the crypto markets, the spot markets are actually more liquid than the equity markets.So, you get a lot of liquidity even after hours, even 24x7. And as other markets around the world kind of take the lead. But most of our investors aren't treating it that way. They're not day trading it, and they're really keeping it more like that digital gold allocation. And so, they just need to adjust the position size, you know, once a month, once a year maybe; just kind of buy and hold.But I wonder, you know, as more people get more comfortable, it could become more important in the future. So, it's an open question, but for now, the ETPs have been a pretty good answer here.Michael Cyprys: Fascinating space. Denny, thanks so much for taking the time to talk.Denny Galindo: It was great speaking with you, Mike.Michael Cyprys: And thanks for listening.

From a sharp tech sell-off and an unexpected drop in US private jobs to mixed results at Singapore’s big banks and the STI hitting fresh highs, investors face a lot of moving parts. Dan Koh hosts Abhilash Narayan, Investment Strategist at HSBC Private Banking, for a deep dive into valuation pressures, economic signals, what Singapore’s latest trio of banks' earnings results tell us about the economy, what’s behind the STI’s record highs, and how global investors should position from here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

US President Donald Trump emerged from his meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping beaming, labeling the conversation "truly great. "But the one-year truce struck on Thursday in South Korea is likely to only stabilize relations between the world's two largest economies rather than resolve fundamental differences, with both sides buying time to further reduce dependence on each other in strategic areas. And it made clear just how much stronger China has become since Trump's first term in office. Trump's move to cut the fentanyl tariff and extend the existing truce on reciprocal tariffs will leave many products facing a levy around 47%, low enough for China's massive manufacturing base to remain competitive with regional rivals. Just as significantly, the US agreed to suspend a rule expanding restrictions on blacklisted Chinese firms, showing that Xi's sweeping rare earth curbs could potentially put a cap on new US export controls — something China has sought for years. We heard from Max Baucus, former US Ambassador to China. He spoke to Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong.Plus - in the US, after the bell, Amazon reported third quarter results that beat analyst estimates driven by its cloud business growth. Apple meantime, reported revenue in Greater China fell well short of analysts' estimates in the latest quarter. We speak to Ross Mayfield, Investment Strategist for Baird Private Wealth Management.

Dans ce podcast, Jeremy Fasquelle et Hiba Mouallem, Investment Strategist, analyse pourquoi le lithium est un métal crucial aujourd'hui, ainsi que comment et pourquoi y investir. Alors que le monde amorce sa transition vers une économie bas carbone, la demande en lithium s'envole. Ce métal stratégique est en effet un composant essentiel des batteries des véhicules électriques et des systèmes de stockage d'énergie issus du solaire et de l'éolien. Mais l'approvisionnement en lithium reste complexe. Son extraction, techniquement exigeante, est concentrée dans quelques zones géographiques clés : l'Amérique du Sud, l'Asie et l'Australie. Cette concentration expose la chaîne d'approvisionnement à des risques géopolitiques croissants. Côté marché, le prix du lithium a connu une forte volatilité et se situe actuellement à des niveaux historiquement bas. Cette chute a conduit à la fermeture temporaire de plusieurs mines, réduisant l'offre disponible. Toutefois, les fondamentaux de la demande restent solides : batteries de smartphones à plus grande capacité, besoins accrus en stockage d'énergie renouvelable, et montée en puissance des véhicules hybrides et électriques. Ces dynamiques devraient soutenir une reprise progressive des prix du lithium.Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

Even the most disciplined investors can be influenced by emotions and biases. In this episode, Benjamin Jang, Investment Strategist at Nicola Wealth, introduces John Nicola, Chairman, CEO & CIO, who explores the field of behavioural finance. John examines the psychological traps that can influence even the most experienced investors, from loss aversion and overconfidence to anchoring and confirmation bias, and how these behaviours can affect long-term returns. Drawing on historical examples and modern research, John highlights practical ways investors can counteract bias through systematic rebalancing, disciplined asset allocation, and diversification.

Historian and investment strategist Edward Chancellor draws parallels between the current surge in tech giants — the Magnificent 7 — and past speculative bubbles such as the 19th-century British railway mania and the 1990s internet boom. He warns of overvaluation fuelled by massive investments in artificial intelligence.Explore how rising interest rates, a soaring national debt – what Chancellor calls the "debt supercycle" – and the Federal Reserve's repeated crisis interventions may be setting the stage for a more severe financial crash.In this episode of PFI Talks, conducted by Jiří Zatloukal, Chancellor also discusses the contrasting impacts on U.S. residential versus commercial real estate, the rise in gold prices as a market “Armageddon” bet, and the economic consequences of deglobalization accelerated by tariffs and shifting capital flows under the Trump administration.

Asian stocks were poised for a mainly positive open Thursday as investors continued to ramp up bets that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates next month. Meantime, Bloomberg Economics says China's July activity data due Friday will likely show signs growth softened heading into the second half, echoing early indications in business surveys and tracking its full-year outlook. We get more on the state of China's economy from Helen Zhu, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer at NF Trinity.Plus - stocks have soared to record levels and volatility has slumped to multi-year lows as traders now fully expect a quarter-point move by the Fed after an inflation print earlier this week was seen as benign.

President Donald Trump announced Israel and Iran had agreed to what he called a “complete and total” ceasefire, easing fears that a conflict between the two adversaries might escalate. Trump, who made the surprise announcement on his Truth Social platform days after ordering airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, said the accord would begin around midnight US time and is aimed at a lasting end to the fighting. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a tweet afterward that while there is no ceasefire agreement, his country had no intention to keep responding to Israeli attacks after 4:00 a.m. Tehran time. We break down the headlines with Joe Mathieu, co-host of Bloomberg Radio and Television’s Balance of Power. Oil slumped and stocks rallied after Trump announced the ceasefire, spurring optimism the worst of the Middle East conflict is over. Global benchmark Brent crude tumbled almost 5% in early Asian trading after the surprise comment. S&P 500 futures rose 0.5%, while key stock indexes advanced in Japan, Hong Kong and Australia. The news damped demand for haven assets with the dollar weakening against all its Group-of-10 peers and gold dropping. Bloomberg’s Jill Disis speaks with our TV colleagues, Yvonne Man and David Ingles, in Hong Kong. Plus - we look at how all the day’s news may play into the Federal Reserve’s inflation outlook.

Tune in monthly to hear from UBS Asset Management's multi-asset team for thoughts on the global macro environment, and markets. Featured are Evan Brown, Portfolio Manager, and Head of Multi-Asset Strategy, & Fatou Konteh, Investment Strategist, UBS Asset Management. Recorded on 05.06.2025

Amidst headlines proclaiming economic doom from Trump's tariffs, a surprising reality emerges: Chinese exports to the United States represent a mere 2.3% of China's GDP. This revealing statistic underscores China's remarkable transformation from an export-driven economy to one powered by domestic consumption and services.Henry Greene, Investment Strategist at KraneShares, breaks down this economic evolution with remarkable clarity. China's exports to America have plummeted from over 25% of total exports in 2006-2010 to just 14% today, while their manufactured goods exports represent only about 11% of GDP. For investors concerned about Chinese internet companies, the news grows even more intriguing – less than 2% of revenues from KWeb portfolio companies (including Alibaba, PDD, Tencent, and Meituan) originate from American consumers. Only PDD Holdings, with its popular Temu app, faces meaningful exposure at roughly 15% of revenue.The conversation explores several misconceptions plaguing market narratives. Concerns about Chinese company delistings from U.S. exchanges largely rehash existing policies from the 2020 Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, rather than representing new threats. Similarly, trade tensions around Taiwan reflect long-standing political posturing rather than imminent geopolitical shifts. Meanwhile, Chinese internet valuations remain compelling at roughly 17% earnings multiples compared to 30% for U.S. tech counterparts.Looking forward, multiple growth catalysts remain intact regardless of trade negotiations. Artificial intelligence development continues at pace with companies like Alibaba introducing increasingly efficient models. Consumer confidence has room to recover from pandemic-era lows. Perhaps most promising, cloud computing penetration among Chinese businesses sits at just 50% – substantially below Western rates and echoing the internet adoption curve that powered earlier growth cycles.Discover how savvy investors are navigating this complex landscape using strategies like balanced onshore/offshore exposure, covered calls, buffer products, and Asian fixed income to capitalize on China's economic resilience while managing volatility.

Speaking exclusively to Bloomberg, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent played down the recent selloff in the bond market, rejecting speculation that foreign nations were dumping their holdings of US Treasuries. In her latest column, Bloomberg Opinion's Shuli Ren writes China is done retaliating against President Donald Trump's exorbitant tariffs, calling the administration's actions a "joke" that it no longer considers worthy of matching. The question now is whether President Xi Jinping will find a more potent weapon to strike back - such as its $760 billion worth of Treasury securities. We get her reaction to Bessent's comments. Plus - a degree of calm returned to Wall Street, with stocks and bonds notching a twin rally after a tumultuous week in the grip of President Trump's disruptive trade war. We get reaction to the day's market action from Ross Mayfield, Investment Strategist at Baird.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
