Crypto Market Leads Gains In Market Recovery

While the S&P index is still down 17.5% for the year, Bitcoin on the other hand is up 3.2%. Bitcoin is considered to be the risky asset, meanwhile S&P stocks are supposed to be the more risk averse option for investors to enjoy calmer waters and steady rises.

Currently it seems Bitcoin is behaving as the more stable and secure market. The opposite seems to be true of traditional stocks that are still deep in losses after volatile movements, often seen in risky assets such as Bitcoin.
