Political Statement Investments

Bitcoin and gold are emerging as potential winners in the wake of a divisive U.S. presidential election. Both assets are seen as political statements, benefiting from disruptions in the established order. Gold, a traditional safe-haven asset, is viewed as immune to inflation and currency debasement by central banks. On the other hand, Bitcoin, often referred to as digital gold, operates outside the traditional financial system, with its value determined by market forces of supply and demand.
"Owning Bitcoin is owning something that was created outside of the political and financial system," said an analyst. The recent surge in Bitcoin and gold prices coincides with the ongoing Super Tuesday primaries, underscoring the significance of these assets in uncertain times. $SPDR Gold ETF (GLD.US)$ $Coinbase (COIN.US)$ $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$
