Investors looking to historical data for clues on whether Bitcoin’s current slump is drawing to a close may be disappointed to see that price rebounds have tended to lag those posted by the stock market.
The largest digital currency by market value rarely sits within a close range of its all-time highs, according to data complied in a report by Bitooda Holdings Inc. By comparison, major U.S. stock indices seldom fall below a 10% correction from record highs. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite have only experienced two brief bear markets since 2014, including one at the onset of the pandemic.
