Crypto Industry News:
Goldman Sachs' Gary Black closed his position on TSLA after the company bought BTC for $ 1.5 billion, avoiding a 28% crash. Now he is calling on the company to sell acquired bitcoins to buy back shares. Former CIO Goldman Sachs sparked this suggestion lively discussion on Twitter. '
On February 8, news came out that Tesla had purchased BTC worth $ 1.5 billion. The TSLA share price fell 28% from $ 863.42 to $ 621.44.
Black suggested that TSLA would attract more fund managers with a share buyback program, considering them more valuable to the investor than buying BTC "with excess cash".
Some Twitter users agreed that share buyback appeared to be a more appropriate way to use the funds, while others felt that too much attention was being paid to what Tesla did with 8% of their cash reserves.
Technical Market Outlook:
After the BTC/USD bounce had been capped at the level of $52,506, the price reversed towards the technical support located level of $48,021. This level had been violated as well, so the BTC/USD pair trades close to the next technical support located at $45,710. Due to the weak and negative momentum the bears might intensify the pressure and push the market lower towards the key short-term technical support seen at $43,097.
