MM #287: Crypto Panic, Real Estate Slowdown, 2026 Market Warning Signs & Quarter Zip Movement w/ Jason Gyamfi

This week on Market Mondays, we’re breaking down the biggest moves in investing, crypto, and global markets. We cover the futures trading tip of the week, this year’s most important investing lesson, and why Bitcoin’s drop to $85,000 has traders in “extreme fear.” We debate whether the bottom is close, if a fall to $70K or even $65K is realistic, and why MicroStrategy trading below the value of its own Bitcoin may signal either a loss of institutional confidence or the best buying opportunity of the cycle. We also unpack whether Ethereum could fall under $2,000 and how December’s market behavior might preview what 2026 looks like.

We explore one of the most important conversations for any entrepreneur or investor: If you lost everything tomorrow, what are your first five moves? Ian and Rashad lay out the fastest, most realistic path to rebuilding from zero. We also break down whether to prioritize dividends or growth in today’s economy, how much company stock someone at Microsoft should realistically hold, and whether $70K Bitcoin is still a real near-term target. On the macro side, Japan’s 10-year yield hits 1.84% (highest since 2008), potentially signaling the end of the global carry trade — with major implications for U.S. stocks, tech, and crypto.

We close with silver hitting $59 for the first time ever, posting a 100%+ yearly gain — is now the time to invest? Plus, we review new data revealing the minimum income needed to live comfortably in 2025, with rising housing, food, and healthcare costs reshaping what financial stability really means. And we’re joined by Jason Gyama, Founder of the Quarter Zip Movement, bringing strategy, energy, and culture to the conversation.
