PANews reported on May 2 that according to The Block, the U.S. GDP in the first quarter of 2025 fell by an annualized 0.3%, the first negative growth since 2022. BRN chief research analyst Valentin Fournier pointed out that slowing economic growth and cooling inflation may prompt the Federal Reserve to adopt a more dovish monetary policy stance, providing support for risky assets such as Bitcoin. The current bullish price trend is the main demand driver. A new round of liquidity injection may lead to alternative risk assets such as cryptocurrencies benefiting more than stocks, as stocks may struggle in the event of an economic slowdown.
Since "Liberation Day," Bitcoin has risen more than 13% to a two-month high, while the S&P 500 has risen less than 1% in the past 30 days, with Bitcoin outperforming the stock market.
