Golden Finance reports that Lin Chen, the head of APAC business at Deribit, stated in a post on X that the market has been continuously sluggish for over two months from August 3 to October 14, until BlackRock's earnings report sparked an overall improvement in sentiment, with the current greed index at 72. With MicroStrategy's ($MSTR) earnings report due to be released soon, if it performs well, market sentiment is expected to rise further. This week, trading is expected to revolve around the election gambit, as a small number of institutional investors have already begun partial sell-offs or hedging through options to avoid the uncertainty risk brought by the elections.
