Analysts say the decoupling of Bitcoin from bond yields shows a structural shift

According to PANews, analyst Darkfost believes that when both the U.S. dollar index and bond yields rise simultaneously, capital often flees risk assets, and Bitcoin usually experiences a pullback. Historically, cryptocurrency bear markets have coincided with rising trends in bond yields and the dollar index. Conversely, when the dollar index and bond yields lose momentum, investors prefer risk assets, typically related to monetary easing or expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts, enhancing bullish sentiment in the cryptocurrency market.

In the current cycle, Bitcoin is unusually decoupled from bond yields. Despite bond yields reaching historical highs, Bitcoin continues to rise, accelerating its increase when the dollar index falls. This indicates a structural change in Bitcoin's role in the macro landscape, being seen as a store of value or redefining its response to traditional macro forces.

According to Jin10 data, CITIC Securities pointed out that the global economy will remain stable in the first half of 2025, with major central banks continuing to cut interest rates. In the second half, the slowdown of the U.S. economy will affect global economic momentum, while non-U.S. regions have advantages due to loose monetary policies.

The output gap in non-U.S. regions still has room for recovery, but the extent of recovery is constrained by policy uncertainty and the preemptive growth of exports in the first half of the year. CITIC Securities holds an optimistic view on the European market, recommending an increase in emerging market weight to balance the allocation.
