This rebound accompanied a rise in trading volumes, indicating stronger conviction among traders, which can further fuel the upward momentum.
At least three indicators indicate a strong bullish outlook for the PEPE market, suggesting that the memecoin could experience a significant 50% price increase by June’s end. Let’s explore these potential catalysts in detail.
<h2 id="pepe-s-rising-wedge-pattern-hints-at-70-gains-ahead">PEPE’s rising wedge pattern hints at 70% gains ahead</h2>
As of June 11, PEPE’s price was hovering around the lower trendline of its current rising wedge pattern, indicating potential support and a likely rebound toward the upper trendline at around $0.00002661, up approximately 70% from the current price levels.

Rising wedges usually resolve when the price breaks below the lower trendline, accompanied by increased trading volume, leading to a significant drop. However, PEPE’s ongoing rebound from the trendline indicates that such a breakdown is not imminent.
Two critical support levels near the wedge’s lower trendline support this potential rebound: the 50-day exponential moving average (50-day EMA; the red wave) and the 1.0 Fibonacci retracement line.

Nevertheless, a break below this support confluence could trigger a bearish scenario, with possible downside targets ranging between $0.00000283 and $0.00000642 by June’s end or in July, depending on the breakdown point.
<h2 id="whale-accumulation-signals-market-confidence">Whale accumulation signals market confidence</h2>
PEPE’s market shows bullish signs due to its largest investors’ continued accumulation and holding behavior. 
The percentage of PEPE supply held by the largest holders — 1 billion or more — remains relatively stable, fluctuating slightly around the 96.02% mark. This indicates that the largest investors are not significantly altering their positions during June’s price correction.

Smaller holders, including those with 10 million–100 million PEPE and 1 million–10 million PEPE, have been actively accumulating during price dips, suggesting increased participation and confidence among retail investors. 
Overall, the growing percentage of smaller and mid-sized Pepe holders indicates broadening interest and strategic accumulation in the market, boosting its upside prospects in June.

PEPE’s potential for a 50% rally by June’s end is bolstered by expectations that the United States Federal Reserve may cut interest rates in September
According to&nbsp;UBS chief strategist Bhanu Baweja, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell will keep the options to slash rates earlier than anticipated due to a rising unemployment rate in the U.S., which rose to 4% in May from 3.9% the month prior.<iframe width="100%" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/S9t-BbVhuOc" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen data-ct-non-breakable="true"></iframe>
Bond traders have also <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">increased their bets</a> for a 250-basis-point (bps) rate cut in September, with their probabilities rising to 50% ahead of the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-cpi-fomc-exchanges-shed-1-2-b-btc">meeting on June 12</a> from 48.6% a month ago.
These bets are resulting in a sharp decline across Treasury yields ahead of the FOMC meeting, with returns on the benchmark 10-year note falling 180 bps in a day.

Lower bond yields increase the opportunity costs of holding non-yielding risk assets like cryptocurrencies. This may increase traders’ appetite for the riskiest memecoins such as Pepe, Dogecoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/doge-price-index">DOGE</a>), Bonk (BONK) and others in June.
