Tom Lee: Institutional Investors Exit During Year-End Holidays, Algorithmic Trading and Tax-Loss Selling Dominate the Market
According to Odaily, Tom Lee, Chairman of BitMine, posted on X stating that during the final holiday trading period of the year, many institutional investors typically choose to exit the market. The dominant market forces shift to algorithmic trading and trading bots, combined with year-end sell-offs driven by tax avoidance needs. These factors together shape the market dynamics in the last few days of December.
Tom Lee previously pointed out, when BitMine disclosed last week’s additional purchase of 44,463 ETH, that as the year-end holidays approach, overall market activity tends to decline, and tax-loss selling exerts temporary pressure on the prices of cryptocurrencies and related stocks. This effect is usually most pronounced between December 26 and December 30, and BitMine is adjusting its market strategy based on this seasonal characteristic.
