The world’s largest asset manager, BlackRock, has made a very compelling case for Bitcoin. The asset manager asserted that the flagship crypto shares a similar risk profile to the magnificent seven stocks and recommended that investors allocate up to 2% to BTC.
BlackRock Makes Compelling Case For Bitcoin
Forbes reported about a recent research report by BlackRock, which made a case for why investors should look to invest in the flagship crypto. The report, written by the firm’s analysts, stated that Bitcoin offers a risk profile similar to that of the Magnificent Seven firms (Apple, Amazon, Tesla, Nvidia, Meta, Google, and Microsoft).
In line with this, these analysts determined that a 1% to 2% allocation to Bitcoin brings about a similar risk profile to these stocks. Meanwhile, the asset manager highlighted the correlation between BTC and these traditional assets but suggested that there might be a divergence soon enough.
BlackRock claimed that this will happen because of factors such as the global fragmentation of the financial system, growing geopolitical tensions, a lack of confidence in the financial system, and growing deficits.
