Bitcoin Tracks Nasdaq at 0.87 — No Longer a Reliable Hedge
I note Bitcoin’s correlation with the Nasdaq is now 0.87, which means it’s moving closely with tech equities rather than acting as an independent hedge.
I’m treating it more like a high-beta tech asset for portfolio construction and I’m monitoring whether this correlation persists through different market regimes.
Analysis
Recommendation
I’m advising to watch BTC as a tech-like risk asset: avoid treating it as a hedge, consider position-sizing accordingly, and monitor correlation changes before using it for diversification.
