Bitcoin's recent uptrend has been driven by more than just technicals; it has been accompanied by
renewed volatility in equities after President Trump signaled his readiness for a trade war over commodities.
The November election outcome could
trigger renewed volatility in financial markets, but should investors bother to do anything about it?
With treasury yields well below 2 %, the stock market
exhibiting renewed volatility, and returns on cash non-existent, investors are also turning to alternatives such as real estate, exchange traded funds, and energy commodities.
While some traders view this as opportunity,
the renewed volatility also could make investors more skittish about stocks.
Of course,
the renewed volatility unsettled investors, and bears roared loudly while bulls pulled in their horns.
The renewed volatility came despite reassurances from the government that it would continue to support the stability of the markets.
Moreover, copious amounts of ink have been used to explain
the renewed volatility in markets without any real consensus emerging.
