Financial Insights That Matter
The U.S. dollar index (DXY) has fallen below 100 and gold has surged to new all-time highs as escalating tariffs have heightened global economic uncertainty. Consequently, asset prices have taken a hit—most notably in the tech sector and cryptocurrencies.
Since reaching its all-time high of $109,000 in January, bitcoin (BTC) has declined approximately 26%. When compared to the “Magnificent Seven” tech stocks, bitcoin’s drawdown sits right in the middle, signaling its growing maturity as an asset.
Tesla (TSLA) is currently the worst performer, down nearly 50% from its peak. NVIDIA (NVDA) follows with a 31% drop. Apple (AAPL), Bitcoin, Meta (META), Google (GOOG), and Amazon (AMZN) have all declined around 26%, while Microsoft (MSFT) stands out with a relatively modest 18% drawdown.
To highlight bitcoin’s resilience in this current 3-month correction, is to compare it to a similar period during its 2021 downturn—from November 2021 to February 2022—when it plummeted 45% from $69,000 to $38,000. At that time, bitcoin was the worst performer among major tech names, though Tesla also suffered significantly.
This comparison underscores how bitcoin has grown more resilient over time as its market cycles progress and the asset continues to mature.
