Mid-cycle distribution describes a phase in an asset’s market cycle where significant amounts of the asset are transferred from long-term holders to newer or short-term investors, typically after a substantial price increase. This process suggests that early investors are taking profits, while new capital enters the market. It often occurs before a market peak and can precede a price correction. Analyzing this distribution helps identify shifts in ownership and market sentiment.
