Legendary Trader Peter Brandt Unveils End-of-Year Downside Price Targets for S&P 500, Bitcoin and Ethereum

Veteran trader Peter Brandt believes that risk assets such as the S&P 500, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) will see much lower levels by the end of the year.

Starting with the US stock market, Brandt tells his 792,500 followers on the social media platform X that the S&P 500 looks bearish after breaching support at 5,800 and retesting the level as resistance.

Brandt predicts that the S&P 500 will close the year slightly below 4,500 points.

As of Fridays close, the S&P 500 is trading at 5,282.

Looking at Bitcoin, Brandt sees BTC dropping to around the $50,000 price zone after violating a parabola that has kept Bitcoin bullish since 2023.

At time of writing, Bitcoin is trading for $85,280.

At time of writing, ETH is worth $1,616.

As for gold, the trader thinks that the precious metal has more room to run to the upside this year. He shares a chart suggesting that gold has broken out of an ascending channel pattern and could hit prices close to $3,600.

An ascending channel indicates that an asset is in an uptrend as it prints higher highs and higher lows. A channel breakout suggests that an asset is in the midst of a strong bull market.

Gold is worth $3,327 as of Fridays close.
