Goldman Sachs now forecasts a 45% chance of a U.S. recession within the next year—its highest estimate since post-pandemic inflation kicked off. Tightening financial conditions, global trade tensions, and incoming tariffs are putting serious pressure on the economy.
📉 Economic red flags:
- Q4 2025 GDP growth forecast cut to just 0.5%
- Rising stagflation fears could trigger early Fed rate cuts
- Wall Street sentiment dims—JPMorgan joins the recession chorus
But here’s the twist: Goldman is buying more Bitcoin.
📈 Crypto conviction:
- BTC holdings now exceed $1.5B, mostly via BlackRock’s and Fidelity’s ETFs
- IBIT positions up 88%, FBTC up 105%
- Goldman sees BTC as a hedge in a weakening TradFi environment
Even as the macro outlook darkens, Bitcoin is emerging as a potential safe haven—and institutions are paying attention.
Will crypto once again thrive under pressure?
