IP #110: Bitcoin Chaos, Tech Pull-Back, & Tariff Threats: The Rising Risk Engines

Send us a text

In this episode of Investor’s Playbook, we’re digging into a triple whammy in the markets: crypto, tech stocks, and trade policy all converging into serious shake-ups. First up: Bitcoin fell to around $105,000, sliding from recent highs and triggering alarms about potential deeper corrections.

Then we turn to the tech sector: major tech names pulled back sharply as fears of tougher regulations and trade headwinds with China crept back into the headlines. And finally – tariffs. The return of aggressive talks about tariffs—especially between the U.S. and China—has amplified uncertainty, making investors more cautious about growth and global supply-chain vulnerabilities.

We’ll unpack how these three forces intersect: how crypto can be a risk barometer in times of policy stress, why tech stocks are especially sensitive to trade and regulation, and what tariff escalation could mean for corporate earnings, inflation, and volatility. We’ll also highlight what to watch next: key support zones for Bitcoin, sectors that might hold up better (or worse) amid these shocks, and strategic take-aways for your portfolio.

If you’re trying to make sense of why the markets are feeling jittery—even when they were pushing higher just weeks ago—this episode gives you a clear breakdown of the forces at play and how you can think about reacting.
