4. Was That The Bitcoin Bottom?

No Matter Where One Has Decided to Invest Their Money, 2022 Has Likely Been Rough

The number of negative macroeconomic factors in play can be eye-opening. The rise of the Omicron variant, continued COVID-related labor/supply chain issues, talk of rising interest rates, and the highest inflation levels in decades have all weighed heavily on investor sentiment. This has led to a downturn in the markets, including the S&P 500, which dipped over 10% in January. Bitcoin (BTC), of course, has not been immune to bearish sentiment plaguing the rest of the investing world. After reaching an all-time high of $67,582 in early November, it has been in free fall ever since. Until the past two weeks, that is.

1. As Stocks Tumbled, the World’s Largest Gold ETF Saw Record Buying Demand

One Month Into 2022, the Stock Market is Experiencing the Most Uncertainty and Volatility Since the World Went Into Lockdown in March 2020

Most recently, investors’ primary cause of concern has been the Federal Reserve and its weekly flip-flopping on whether or not they will raise interest rates to combat inflation. Like virtually every correction in history, investors who fled risky assets look at gold as a safe place to park their money. There are several ways to invest in gold, including actual gold bullion, gold futures contracts, gold mining/processing companies and an ETF composed of gold-centric companies. It is this last option that has seen a surge of attention recently. Near the end of January, the SPDR Gold Trust ETF (NYSE: GLD), the largest ETF backed by gold bullion, saw the highest daily influx of investments since its inception in 2004. The largest Gold ETD saw approximately $1.6 billion inflow, enough to buy over 27 tonnes of gold bullion at today’s prices.
