Shiba Inu Slips to 7-Day Low—Can Bulls Turn the Tide Before Q2 Closes?
Shiba Inu (SHIB) has slumped to a seven-day low, driven by global uncertainty and bearish technical signals. The token faces critical support at $0.0000102, with further losses possible.
Leading meme coin Shiba Inu (SHIB) has plunged to a seven-day low, dropping nearly 15% over the past week. At press time, the altcoin trades at $0.0000116.
The downturn comes amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, which have cast a shadow over broader crypto market sentiment and triggered a wave of risk-off behavior among SHIB holders.
SHIB Traders Brace for More Losses
On the technical front, momentum indicators suggest that the meme coin may face further losses in the short term. For example, the token’s BBTrend remains red on the daily chart, confirming that bearish forces are firmly in control.

The BBTrend measures the strength and direction of a trend based on the expansion and contraction of Bollinger Bands. When BBTrend values are positive, it typically signals a strong uptrend, while negative values indicate increasing bearish momentum.
Observed on the one-day chart, SHIB’s BBTrend indicator has posted red histogram bars that have gradually increased in size over the past 13 days. This signals strengthening sell-side pressure among the token’s spot traders.
Furthermore, the meme coin’s Elder-Ray Index supports this bearish outlook. At press time, the indicator is below zero at -0.0000011.

The Elder Ray Index measures the strength of buying and selling pressure in the market, using two key components: Bull Power and Bear Power. When the index is negative, sellers dominate the market. This confirms the bearish trend in the SHIB markets and hints at a continued downward momentum in the short term.
Can SHIB Hold the Line?
SHIB currently trades just above the key support level at $0.0000102, a price floor last tested in April. If bearish pressure intensifies, SHIB could retest this critical zone.
If the support level fails to hold, a further decline in market sentiment and weak demand may drive the token toward $0.00000939.

Conversely, if bullish momentum builds and buyer interest returns, the Shiba Inu token price could stage a recovery, with a potential upside target near $0.0000122.

The 10-year US Treasury yield approaches 5.4%, with the AI halo unable to hide the "inflated" risks of the S&P 500
Behind the S&P 500's record high, only 30% of its constituent stocks are above their 50-day moving average, marking the narrowest market breadth at a record high since 1990. The Russell 2000 has fallen for five consecutive weeks, and high-yield bond yields have soared to 15%. Societe Generale warns that if US Treasury yields rise to 6% and oil prices reach $150, the S&P 500 could fall by more than 20% next year. In addition, some top-performing fund managers have completely exited AI stocks in favor of energy, stating that once financing dries up, it will be "game over."
Oil tanker freight reaches a sixty-year high: shipping oil from the US to China is more expensive than launching a rocket!
The freight for a single barrel of crude oil has soared to $41, approaching half the oil price, and for a single trip, the freight was once enough to buy an oil tanker. The Middle East crisis has led to a structural shortage of shipping capacity in the Strait of Hormuz, coupled with ship-to-ship transfers extending turnaround times. VLCC freight rates have skyrocketed from an annual average of $9.2 million to $77 million—an increase of more than eight times. Refiners’ profits are being rapidly eroded, the average price of second-hand oil tankers has reached a historic high, and, unusually, surpassed the price of new vessels.
Following the Drop but Not the Rise! Silver Trapped in Difficulties
The logic of AI and solar energy demand continues to play out, yet prices are falling against the trend—macroeconomic forces such as a strengthening US dollar and rising real interest rates have completely suppressed fundamentals. Speculative funds offloaded $1.6 billion in a single week, marking a yearly peak, while CTA net short positions reversed by $2.6 billion to the highest level this year. However, Goldman Sachs analysts believe that the extreme short positioning itself is building reversal momentum, highlighting an asymmetry; once macro headwinds subside, a retaliatory rebound could be easily triggered. After a similar shakeout last time, silver surged 15% in six weeks.
