Billionaire \u201cBond King\u201d Jeffrey Gundlach believes Bitcoin (BTC) will plummet further despite having already fallen by about 70% from its all-time high.<\/p>\n
In a new CNBC interview, the CEO of asset management firm DoubleLine Capital says<\/a>\u00a0he wouldn\u2019t be \u201csurprised at all\u201d if the flagship crypto asset fell by more than 50% from the current levels to around $10,000.<\/p>\n \u201cThe trend in crypto is clearly not positive. I mean it topped out a long time ago. Remember, I was with you in July of last year, and Bitcoin was up at like $60,000 or something. And then it dropped down to $30,000\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n It managed to rally back but it looks like it is being liquidated. So I\u2019m not bullish at $20,000 or $21,000 on Bitcoin. I wouldn\u2019t be surprised at all if it went to $10,000.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n At time of writing, Bitcoin<\/a> is trading for $21,062, an increase of about 5% from the 2022 low of $20,111 reached earlier this week.<\/p>\n Gundlanch also warns the recent collapse of some cryptocurrencies could be a sign of a looming crisis in the digital asset space.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve had such a huge decline in parts of the stock market. Emerging market equity year-to-date is down 15%. Most equities are down. Nasdaq\u2019s down 28%, Bitcoin is down 53% year-to-date and 45% just since the last Federal Reserve meeting. <\/em><\/p>\n We\u2019ve already seen around the edges some blow-ups in parts of the crypto world and that could be foreshadowing some problem.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n DoubleLine Capital, headquartered in Tampa, Florida, had more than $122 billion<\/a> of assets under management at the close of this year\u2019s first quarter.<\/p>\n
