A lot of people think BTC failed its role as the recession-proof safe heaven. What they fail to understand is the true purpose of BTC, which is created to resist the unlawful seizure and confiscation, to avoid the loss of purchasing power typically associated with fiats due to their inflationary nature and to avoid the defunct that comes with the sovereign debt risk.
BTC never claimed and nor does it ever try to be the safe-heaven asset during the recession. In order to make that assertion, it needs to be the asset that has the low volatility because investors tend to hold the low-volatility assets during the time of uncertainty.
Few Macro list to go through
#1. Recession is overdue for the U.S economy and Coronavirus could just be that catalyst that pops the debt bubble. The recession talk is, perhaps, premature, but not unwarranted. All three major stock market indexs' SMA 50 are ready to cross below their SMA 200. On the bright side, SPX and DOW have bullish divergence on the daily timeframe while Nasdaq does not.
#2. If you believe the stock market will not fall below S&P's 2017 high, then we are near the bottom. IF you think we will go below 2017 high, then we still have the room to go even lower.
#3. Pay attention to this moth's unemployment related indicators, retail metrics, manufacturing-related indexes and housing-related signals. Reports about rising jobless claims along with the potential 20% unemployment figure, if proven true, could further dampen investor's confidence.
#4. Market will not fully recover from the coronovirus panic until the exponential growth slows down. Currently, U.S is approaching 10000 cases and the exponential growth does not seem to be slowing down even with the social distancing measure in place. Next week will be critical because spring break is just right around the corner...
#5. It was a little disconcerting to see 1.5 trillion stimulus package to have a very little to no impact on the market. However, you can count on president Trump to do everything he can do rescue the freefalling stock market. U.S senate just passed the coronavirus relief bill and a larger aid package is expected to follow. Moreover, ECB just announced the stimulus package as well. The effect of all these measures will be determined once we get the more definitive timeline.
#6. Did all the big players get out of their underwater positions in time or are they waiting to sell into the next rally before the market dips even further?
If BTC continues to move on its own, then we can ignore everything I said above! If not, the strength of the U.S economy will determine which kind of halving we will see.
