June’s chart of the month looks at Bitcoin versus the 3x leveraged NASDAQ ETF, dating back to 2012.
Over this extended period, Bitcoin has exhibited a remarkable 92% correlation.
Does this mean that Bitcoin is a safe haven? Or behaves more like a highly leveraged expression of risk appetite?

Mid-week Polymarket market
Market rates isn’t something that was covered in this video, but they will be in the Market Wrap this coming weekend.
The ECB might have risen rates by the time you read this, the BoJ is likely to do the same, and Indonesia has risen rates this week to the best of my knowledge.
Will The Fed raise in June? Unlikely according to Polymarket and the general consensus.
