The best forecasts of the week
Eric Trump “agrees” the ether should be over $ 8,000, because the m2 global money rises
Analysts say that the ether is underestimated and “should be commercial above 8000 USD” as global liquidity, measured by a wide money supply (m2), reached a new record level of 95.58 trillion USD on Friday.
The global supply of liquidity, i.e. M2, aggregates liquidity corrected to the American dollar from the main economies, including the United States, euro area, Japan, Great Britain and Canada.
The growing M2 means that there is more money in the economy, including bank accounts, checks and other liquid assets. Such a surplus of liquidity can increase the influx of capital to more risky assets such as Crypto.
It seems that the ether observes a similar M2 supply trajectory, defined by the Wyckoff accumulation method, in 2025, although with a significant period of delays.
