Tom Lee, founder and chief strategist of Fundstrat Global Advisors, a firm closely followed by the financial world, discussed recent market developments on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” program.
Specifically addressing the impact of geopolitical tensions and war in the Middle East on asset prices, Lee highlighted the resilience of cryptocurrencies during this period.

Addressing concerns about “war-induced inflation” dominating the markets, Lee characterized the current situation as an “inflation shock” rather than a permanent inflation trend. Arguing that the impact of volatility in oil prices on consumers is balanced by the economic stimulus created by war spending, the renowned analyst implied that cryptocurrencies remain an alternative for investors in this uncertain environment.
Tom Lee believes that despite the volatility in March, much of the weakness in the markets is behind us. He thinks that the course of the war and central bank policies are the biggest determinants of market behavior, and argues that in the event of a peace, markets could experience an “explosive” recovery.
