Trump's Impact and Bitcoin ETFs Skyrocketing: Uncovered Secrets
November 13, 2024
Institutional appetite for Bitcoin continues to grow as US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw their biggest trading day in over 7 months. According to Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart, total daily volume reached $7.22 billion on November 11, the 6th highest ever. The surge follows IBIT’s previous record-setting performance last Thursday when it recorded over $4 billion in traded shares, its highest daily volume since launch. BlackRock’s IBIT accounted for half of volumes—roughly $4.6 billion worth of shares traded today, followed by FBTC which surpassed $1 billion. However, that day’s activity resulted in $69 million in net outflows, followed by more than $1 billion in net inflows the next day—its largest single-day capital injection since inception. High trading volumes can indicate both buying and selling activity, and market observers may need several days to determine whether the recent volume surge translates into sustained net inflows.
The uptick in Bitcoin ETF trading volumes comes amid Bitcoin bullish momentum post-election. Following Donald Trump’s victory, which many perceive as favorable for crypto policies, there has been a wave of optimism that likely fueled both the Bitcoin price rise and the corresponding increase in ETF trading volumes. Bitcoin has flipped silver in market capitalization, reaching a valuation of $1.736 trillion and becoming the world’s 8th largest asset. This achievement came hand-in-hand with a surge in Bitcoin’s price, which shot past $88,000—a 10% jump in a single day. Meanwhile, silver prices dipped by 2%. Bitcoin now trails only giants like gold, Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Saudi Aramco.
Moving on to a different sector, the question arises about how Trump's return to the White House will impact oil prices and stocks. A recent article on Biztoc delves into the analysis of global supply, low valuations, and fat dividend yields in relation to oil stock prices. With Bitcoin surging, the focus shifts to whether altcoins are next in line for a potential rally. The article on InvestorPlace explores the implications of Trump's presidency on the oil market and whether oil stocks are a prudent investment choice with his potential return to power. Amidst the fluctuating landscape of global markets, the interplay between political decisions and financial markets remains a key point of interest for investors and analysts alike.
As the cryptocurrency and traditional finance worlds intersect, the impact of political events on market dynamics becomes increasingly significant. The surge in Bitcoin ETF trading volumes reflects a growing institutional interest in digital assets, while the speculation surrounding Trump's influence on oil prices underscores the interconnected nature of global markets. With both Bitcoin and oil stocks experiencing shifts in response to external factors, investors are closely monitoring developments to make informed decisions in an ever-evolving financial landscape.
