To The Moon

$Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$  

If you bought $CRCL near the highs, you're not alone. Many retail investors got in during the hype surge — only to be blindsided by Goldman Sachs’ Neutral rating and $83 price target, implying a brutal 54% downside from current levels ($182.90).

You're probably asking: Should I cut losses, average down, or brace for more pain?

Let's break it down — with empathy, realism, and a trader's edge.

🔍 Analyst Split:

🟢 Morgan Stanley: Overweight, PT $210 — sees long-term moat in stablecoin market

🟡 JP Morgan: Neutral, PT $160 — cautious on monetisation amid tightening liquidity

🔴 Goldman Sachs: Neutral, PT $83 — flags bubble-like earnings multiples (60x Q5–Q8)

🌍 Macro Matters:

🏦 Fed signals ‘higher for longer’ — spooks growth-heavy, high-multiple names

📉 Bond yields rising = pressure on future earnings-based valuations

🪙 $BTC losing steam (<$63k) → CRCL sympathy weakness

⚖️ Global regulatory limbo over stablecoins keeps institutions cautious

🧠 3 Realistic Scenarios:

1. Bounce & Reclaim: BTC rebounds, CRCL reclaims $200 → chance to exit or scale out

2. Stagnant Drift: $160–170 base forms, giving bulls breathing room but no breakout

3. Flush to Fair Value: Breaks $150 = path to $100–120 support (Goldman's camp wins)

💡 If you're holding high-cost positions:

Consider bull call spreads to limit capital exposure while staying in the game

Use bounces to exit partially and re-evaluate — preserve capital for conviction setups

Avoid panic — bottoms are formed when fear peaks and volume spikes

🤝 You're not stuck — you're early. Now it's about being smart, not just hopeful.

📌 Watch this week's inflation data and BTC momentum closely. They'll guide the next leg.
