Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high of $94,000 on January 5, 2026, despite weak U.S. manufacturing data. The ISM Manufacturing PMI reported a contraction with a reading of 47.9, yet investor optimism remains strong, driving Bitcoin's price upward. This rise in Bitcoin's value comes as corporate entities like MicroStrategy continue to accumulate, with Michael Saylor purchasing 1,286 BTC. The rally in Bitcoin is part of a broader risk-on sentiment, with assets such as gold, silver, and U.S. equities also experiencing gains. Despite low trading volumes, institutional interest persists, as evidenced by ETF inflows averaging $32 billion in 2025. However, analysts express caution, noting the weak demand fundamentals and the need for stronger economic indicators to sustain the rally. A potential target of $100,000 has been suggested if Bitcoin maintains its current levels.
