Stock Market Sees Largest Surge Since V-Shaped Recovery, Another Leg For Bitcoin?

On the heels of positive vaccine news and a winner finally being declared in the US presidential election, major US stock indices like the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average set a new all-time high price record. Due to the ongoing correlation with the stock market, could Bitcoin also see another leg higher, and finally also set a new peak after three years of a bear market?

Blue Wave: S&P 500, Dow Jones Set New All-Time High On Positive Vaccine News

Bitcoin price action all last week was some of the most bullish its been in years, taking the leading cryptocurrency by market cap all the way to just under $16,000. The long-awaited “decoupling” of the cryptocurrency and the stock market also arrived, according to analysts, which explained previous stock market weakness compared to Bitcoin.

But with a winner of the US election finally called by the Associated Press, stock markets instead followed, soaring to new all-time highs.

The S&P 500, set a new record, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average that has thus far only set lower highs since Black Thursday, finally hit a new peak for 2020 before pulling back some.

The move in the stock market is unexpected, as most analysts have concluded a collapse is near. Several signs that the stock market is topping have been completely ignored and markets appear to be completely irrational in the face of economic disaster.

And if stocks are instead bullish with a Biden win, a combination that also wasn’t expected, could this also propel Bitcoin to a new all-time high in 2020?

2020: Could It Be The Year Bitcoin Breaks $20K?

Bitcoin at this point came to less than $4,000 away from setting a new all-time high price record last week. The ongoing rally has sparked discussion of the crypto asset’s decoupling from the stock market, but a surprise rally in stocks could keep the correlation continuing for some time.

While it did indeed look like Bitcoin was decoupling, today’s price action and impulse up in the major US stock indices, like the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones, suggest that they could be following the cryptocurrency market as they have in the past.

It is not clear why this would exist, but perhaps the always-on crypto market makes investor sentiment change more susceptible and therefore occur ahead of the rest of the finance market.

This isn’t the first time Bitcoin has looked to be a leading indicator for the stock market. But the correlation isn’t all negative. The stock market’s recovery has helped keep Bitcoin climbing, and this latest push to all-time highs, could also follow in Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency could finally retest its previous high of $20,000.

I'm Tony Spilotro. Behind the pseudonym, I'm a digital media executive and global remote work leader with a decade of content experience and excellence. Here, I explore my newfound passions pertaining to privacy, finance, economics, politics, cryptography, property rights, and other libertarian-esque views. I am a Bitcoin evangelist, maximalist, and educator whenever I can be, helping to spread its message of freedom from government control, monetary policy mismanagement, and passing the buck - literally – to future generations. My journey from a curious retail crypto investor to a serious Bitcoin advocate, trader, and technical analyst is an unusual one, but life-changing nonetheless and has become less about money and more about a long-overdue revolution. While a firm believer in the laws governing math and science, I am profoundly fascinated by the impact of astrology and astronomy including moon and solar cycles and planetary alignment and their ability to influence and potentially predict markets. It hasn't yet clicked for me as to how to put anything to use, but I consider it my current rabbit hole I can't yet dig out of. My perspective of growing up alongside the internet, the dot com era, the Great Recession, and roots in video games collecting coins and rare items caused Bitcoin to immediately make sense to me. Through all of these lenses, I seek to produce content that is educational and entertaining, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read what I have to say. Please follow me on Twitter and feel free to drop me a line if you would like to work together.
