The negative correlation of the stock markets with gold and Bitcoin continue to its trend. As reported yesterday, the two commodities (or digital asset) began an uptrend against the negative move in stocks. While the uptrend does not seem to hold, the negative correlation is getting stronger.
Have We Hit Bottom?
The rate of unemployment in the U.S. has dipped and is now starting to show revival. The unemployment rate declined to 13.3 per cent in May from 14.7 per cent in April. Around 2.5 million people were rehired during the second half of May as the COVID-19 lockdown ended.
The news is extremely positive for the stock markets as it strengthens the outlook of the economy. SPX jumped 2% to $3185, rising above the highs in March. Hence, completely retracing the coronavirus dump.
On the other hand, Gold fell by 1.8% breaking below the support around $1690-$1700.Bitcoin dropped 1.34%, as well. However, it was two hours earlier than the announcement on employment was made. Therefore, either BTC acted as an early indicator, or the drop was completely uncorrelated to the Fed’s report.
While the employment rates of even 13% are massively high, the stocks are pushing up to reflect that the worst might be over, for now.
