Pi Network Prints First Major Bullish Signal Since July 1 — What’s Next?
PI Network’s recent 2% price rise signals a potential shift in momentum, with the MACD crossover indicating bullish strength. However, it needs fresh buying pressure to sustain the rally toward key resistance levels.
PI Network bulls appear to be making a comeback, thanks to an improvement in overall market sentiment over the past 24 hours.
The token’s price has climbed by 4% in the past 24 hours, sparking speculation about whether a new bullish phase is about to begin.
Buy Pressure Builds in PI
PI’s 4% uptick has triggered a bullish crossover on its Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). For context, the token’s MACD line (blue) has just crossed above its signal line (orange) for the first time since July 1, signaling growing bullish momentum.
The MACD indicator identifies trends and momentum in its price movement. It helps traders spot potential buy or sell signals through crossovers between the MACD and signal lines.

As with PI, when the MACD line crosses above the signal line, it signals bullish momentum, suggesting that buying activity is increasing. Traders interpret this setup as a buy signal, which could add more upward pressure on the meme coin’s price.
While PI’s MACD and signal lines remain below zero because of its prolonged bearish trend, this crossover highlights a cooldown in selloffs as bulls attempt to regain market control.
Further, readings from the PI/USD one-day chart show its Balance of Power (BoP) at 0.61, indicating that buy-side pressure is gaining strength.

The BoP indicator measures the strength of buyers versus sellers in the market, helping to identify momentum shifts. When its value is negative, sellers dominate the market, with little to no buyer resistance.
Conversely, positive BOP readings like this suggest buyers dominate the market over sellers and drive newer price gains.
Can Buying Pressure Carry PI Across the Line?
PI currently trades below resistance at $0.477. If demand climbs, the altcoin could flip this barrier into a support floor, propelling its price toward $0.508.
However, for PI to sustain this upward momentum and push toward higher resistance levels, there must be a significant influx of new demand to absorb the existing supply.

Without fresh buying pressure, the current rally could quickly lose steam. In that case, PI risks slipping back into its previous consolidation range—or worse, falling toward the $0.445 support level.

Hashrate orders are booming, why is "AI trading" falling out of favor? JPMorgan reveals the time lag between AI investment and productivity realization
Joseph Lupton from the JP Morgan Global Economic Research Team pointed out in a research report on November 10 that recent improvements in labor productivity have been driven more by capital deepening and increased intensity of factor utilization. The broad efficiency gains from AI, resulting from process reconstruction, data integration, and organizational adjustments, will still take time to materialize. This means orders for chips, servers, and electrical equipment may grow first, but continuous investment returns for computing power operators and end users may not arrive at the same pace.
AI investment enters the "Trough of Disillusionment", the next 18 months will be a life-or-death test!
Goldman Sachs believes that the AI investment cycle is currently in the "trough of disillusionment," but this is not the first time. The core contradiction lies in the fact that the business models of new cloud computing providers are highly dependent on end-user returns from AI spending, while currently "there are basically zero companies that can attribute profits to AI." Social Capital founder Palihapitiya has clearly defined an 18-month key window, during which the market will decide which AI business models are sustainable and which are not.
Anthropic's Core Concern: Revenue Can Be Withdrawn at Any Time, but Computing Power Costs Are Locked in for up to 20 Years
Zheshang Securities believes that Anthropic's revenue is mainly based on usage-based billing, with remaining performance obligations covering only about 5.1 months of annualized revenue, while compute power costs are already locked in with $895.4 billion in irrevocable commitments, some extending as far as 2045. Revenues can be reduced at any time, but costs are non-exitable, creating a highly asymmetric maturity gap between the two—this is the company's real core constraint.
Triple Pressure from the Federal Reserve, Treasury, and Congress; Goldman Sachs: Liquidity Crisis May Occur in 2027
Goldman Sachs warns that the reserve ratio of bank assets has dropped to around 11%, only slightly above the crisis trough of 2019. In the second half of 2027, a deadlock in debt ceiling negotiations will force the Treasury to rebuild the TGA, triggering a "perfect storm" of a sharp drop in reserves and a surge in T-bill supply; combined with stalled money market fund buying, this will create a huge liquidity black hole. The Federal Reserve could be forced into the awkward position of lowering interest rates and launching large-scale bond purchases to rescue the market.
