CFRA Research Energy equity analyst and deputy research director Stewart Glickman joins Asking for a Trend to discuss his outlook on oil prices (BZ=F, CL=F). Glickman forecasts "mediocre" crude oil pricing for 2025, projecting WTI crude at around $65 per barrel and Brent crude at "somewhere close to $70." He notes that the current price range is likely to persist. However, he cautions that this outlook is "not great news for energy investors." He points to record-high oil production levels, which he expects to plateau in the coming year. "Couple that with a wobbly demand outlook, and I don't think it's great for pricing," Glickman explains. He tells Yahoo Finance that oil markets "haven't really found a sustainable path towards much higher oil prices."

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) extends its rally fueled by former President Donald Trump's reelection, surging to a fresh record high above $86,000 and lifting other crypto-related stocks like Coinbase Global (COIN), MARA Holdings (MARA), and MicroStrategy (MSTR) along with it. Asymmetric founder, CEO, and CIO Joe McCann joins Asking for a Trend Host Josh Lipton to discuss his view that bitcoin will jump to $100,000 under Trump. "There's a number of actual structural market forces at play right now behind the price of bitcoin," McCann says, naming Trump's unexpectedly winning the popular vote and the red sweep. "Given the amount of momentum that the Trump administration has from the crypto industry and its support, you're actually seeing, I think, a lot of buying outside of the United States as well, even though primarily the majority of the buying has been US-based and the reason is the strategic bitcoin reserve that they've actually floated."

Alpine Macro Chief Geopolitical Strategist Dan Alamariu joins Asking for A Trend to discuss how a Trump administration would impact the economy and stock markets. Alamariu argues that Trump will "govern in a relatively more modern way" than many anticipate. In his analysis of Trump's economic policies, specifically regarding tariffs and fiscal measures, he suggests these won't have the inflationary impact or cause the deficit expansion that many investors fear. Looking at market performance as an indicator, Alamariu suggests that Trump would be unlikely to implement policies that could hamper stock market growth. He emphasizes that the Trump administration clearly understands that "if they were to spark inflation, they would court political defeat." In his view, Trump would avoid stoking inflation ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, as this could jeopardize Republican control.

The presidential election results could significantly impact various market sectors, with cryptocurrency emerging as a key focus area. "Trump has always been a little more friendly to the crypto environment, but even Harris had a kind of 'reset' where she kind of sat back down with the crypto community after seeing how influential these dollars were," IDX Advisors chief investment officer Ben McMillan told Yahoo Finance Anchor Josh Lipton. McMillan emphasizes that comprehensive crypto regulation should be a top priority for the next administration, noting that the current regulatory framework has been "haphazard" over the years.
