Tom Lee says stop timing the bottom and start buying the dip

Thomas Lee, speaking on stage at Hong Kong Consensus 2026, said investors should be looking at opportunities as crypto is in the midst of a "mini winter."

What to know:

  • Fundstrat's Thomas Lee urged investors to view the sell-off as a buying opportunity, arguing that gold has likely peaked for the year and that bitcoin and ether are poised to outperform
  • Lee sees ether possibly needing a brief dip below $1,800 before a sustained recovery.
  • Bitcoin fell back below $67,000 on Wednesday, extending a pullback from last week's rebound and marking a roughly 50 percent drawdown from its October record highs.
