Even when the US currency was trading below 89 cents, America announced a solid short-term performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dollar's value, on the other hand, is steadily declining. He predicted the dollar's slow demise if it continues to plummet at its current rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cIn the short term, the dynamics have been and will continue to be in place for the dollar to be marginally or moderately stronger\u2026In the longer term, I think the dollar \u2026 [is] doomed,\u201d Gundlach said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>After dooming the USD, Gundlach turned his attention to Bitcoin. Bitcoin, he claimed, is nothing more than a trading vehicle. Being short or long on bitcoin means the investor is treading water in treacherous territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gundlach believes that the <a href=\"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/bank-of-america-starts-trading-bitcoin-futures.html\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"6244\">Bitcoin market is too volatile<\/a> to invest in and that even for members of the crypto community, now is not the best moment to hold Bitcoin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gundlach believes that prices will continue to fall and that BTC will become much more affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThe chart on bitcoin looks pretty scary\u2026.I have a feeling you\u2019re going to be able to buy it below 23,000 again.
