PEPE and NEIRO, these Ethereum ecosystem tokens, have recently become a hot topic again. Bloomberg analyst Mike McGlone recently sent a signal: gold, silver, copper, and related metal stocks may face the risk of "excessive rally" in 2026.

His logic is straightforward—too much of a rise. Remember the pattern with Bitcoin and crude oil? The initial surge was fierce, and the pullback was equally sharp. The precious metals sector is now somewhat like that state; although the fundamentals are fine, the rapid increase in price will naturally stimulate supply and suppress demand, ultimately leading to a correction.

The same logic applies to US stocks and metal stocks. It’s not that a crash is imminent, but such sustained rapid growth is hard to maintain. The bull market isn’t over yet, but from crypto to traditional asset markets, there’s a sense of being hijacked by overheated sentiment.

Will 2026 really bring a wave of correction? It depends on whether the market can find a balance between maintaining enthusiasm and staying rational. What’s your take?

PEPE26,55%

NEIRO12,24%

BTC1,82%

Predicting 2026 again? McGlone's rhetoric is getting old, huh. A big rise in precious metals = a inevitable correction. That logic is a bit too absolute. PEPE and NEIRO are currently just sentiment-driven markets. Don't mix them with traditional assets; they're two different things. But to be fair, it's a bit overheated, but who can precisely pinpoint the adjustment point? Anyway, I'm still waiting.

Here we go again. Every time it surges sharply, someone yells "collapse," causing panic among people.

Another "2026 Adjustment Theory" again, it's making my ears callus haha This logic is actually just saying not to get too excited too early, but I think—people who say this are always bouncing back and forth between missing out and bottom fishing PEPE folks don't look at fundamentals at all, they just look at who shouts the loudest, so...

Brother Mai, your analysis this time is on point. After a sharp rise, a correction is inevitable. This iron law has never been broken.

Here we go again with the "rise too fast will pull back" rhetoric... I've heard it so many times haha, but it's still going up. PEPE and NEIRO are still flying, who dares say it will crash in 2026? The so-called smart analysts are always late to realize. Precious metals will adjust, the US stock market will adjust, so what about cryptocurrencies? Not adjusting? How come the logic is so twisted? Actually, to be honest, no one really knows. Pretending to have a logic is safer than admitting ignorance. True reversals often don't happen when analysts say so; they come when you least expect it.
