Bias

OVERWEIGHT

Catalysts

  • Near-term momentum is bullish: MACD has crossed above zero, RSI has recovered from oversold, and price has reclaimed both the 50- and 200-day SMAs.
  • Medium-term structure remains bearish: The death cross (50-SMA below 200-SMA) is not yet resolved. A sustained close above ~$1,100 would be needed to invalidate it.
  • Volatility has been exceptional: The 15% round-trip from $950 to $1,093 and back toward $1,070 in three weeks is well above BLK's typical range.

Risks

  • Event-driven repricing risk if expectations diverge from incoming evidence.
