Francis Hunt · "The Market Sniper" / "The Crypto Sniper" — UK-based technical trader and educator (Hunt Volatility Funnel method); runs the Market Sniper and Crypto Sniper YouTube channels and a paid community. Macro frame: a Western debt/fiat collapse, long anti-fiats (gold, silver, crypto).
Mitsubishi Corp — a Japanese name with a better technical setup than the Nikkei itself; 5–6x, matching Buffett’s trading-house picks, enough to absorb a ~30% weaker yen.
Bottomed June 26 (inverted H&S reversal, early on dollar debasement) — traded pragmatically, not a freedom token; expects Bitcoin dominance to fall as alts outperform.
King of the “anti-fiats” — moved first when the 2021 debt crisis began; past fixes were suppression that overshoots on release, and the ~$5,600→$4,300 pullback is path volatility. Hold it physical, not tokenized.
Long-term US Treasuries (iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF — asset-class proxy)
Short the long end: 10-year HVF next rest 5.334%, 30-year target 6.339% — a rates blowoff as offshore Treasury buyers (yen carry, petrodollar, Cayman basis trade) reverse.
In one line: the 40-year bond bull is over and the long end is heading for a rates blowoff (US 10-year 5.334%, 30-year 6.339% on his funnel targets) as the offshore buyers of US debt reverse — expect a Lehman-style fiscal event and a tokenized/digital reset, and own the anti-fiats: physical gold first, silver and miners next, then crypto (privacy coins and "chosen" large-cap rails over Bitcoin).
Sovereign debt is breaking. Bond bear called since 2021; yields in upside HVF continuation patterns; the Fed follows the bond market ("the cowardly general"), and Hormuz energy inflation keeps rates rising. (2026-SEP-16)
Treasury demand was structural, not organic. Yen carry, petrodollar recycling and the Cayman basis trade (~$2T on a $7.5B-GDP island) are unwinding; measure the dollar against the yuan and peso, not DXY. (insights)
Anti-fiats win, in order. Gold → silver → miners → crypto; equities priced in gold peaked in 1999. Bitcoin bottomed June 26 but dominance should fall — favours Zcash, Monero, XRP, XLM, Tron, Solana. (2026-SEP-16)
Selective equities. Nikkei still short of its ~80,000 target (dip-buy; Mitsubishi 5–6x); KOSPI rolled into a monthly head-and-shoulders top. (2026-SEP-16)
Timing and survival. A fiscal event "within 3 years and quite possibly within the next week"; hold cash while it counts, physical gold, self-reliance, and multi-jurisdiction optionality — he regards tokenization and social-score digital money as dystopian. (2026-SEP-16)
