[Tom Lee: U.S. stocks may bottom out this month, rising oil prices are relatively positive for U.S. stocks] BlockBeats News, March 15, Ethereum treasury company BitMine Chairman Tom Lee said in an interview with CNBC, 'I think overall, tech stocks have actually performed quite well, including software stocks. This makes sense to us, but I want to say something that might seem a bit counterintuitive. Rising oil prices are actually relatively positive for U.S. stocks. One reason is that the U.S. is a net producer of oil. When people worry that rising oil prices will drag down global economic growth, they are instead more inclined to hold growth stocks. This will prompt investors to buy into the U.S. stock market because the U.S. market itself is a "growth index," especially the MAG-7 and software sectors. So I think the current market performance actually makes sense. I also believe the stock market may be forming a bottom this month. The issue with private credit has actually existed for some time, and it is only now gradually coming to light. But I don't think the situation is as systemic as the market fears. Many people immediately think of Lehman Brothers and the global financial crisis when they see problems, but there are many reasons why this situation is different. First, the market size is not as large as it was back then. Second, the credit stress signals we are seeing now are not as severe as they were in 2008. So I think it is indeed weighing on the financial sector right now, but it will not become a systemic issue for the entire market or economy.'
