According to UBS analysis, the Nasdaq-100 volatility index (NDX) reached approximately 27 on Tuesday (July 7), the highest level relative to the broader Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX) since the 2002 dot-com crash. UBS equity derivatives research head Maxwell Grinacoff noted th

The Nasdaq-100 (NDX) fell 3.2% on Friday as a broad risk-off mood swept Wall Street, weighing heavily on tech stocks. Arm, AMD, and Micron led the decline as investor sentiment shifted toward caution.

Raoul Pal stated on March 8th that global liquidity is a key macro factor, highly correlated with BTC and NDX since 2012, with an annual growth of about 10%. He pointed out that liquidity remains loose and predicted that the US will further cut interest rates to stimulate disposable income. The crypto market is currently oversold, and the next two weeks will be a critical period to watch.

Bank of America said that the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 are slowing down, which could lead to CTAs starting to unwind as the price trend pulls back. Strategists, including Chintan Kotecha, wrote that CTA models show a slight decline in long positions on the SPX and NDX last week, with a similar gradual unwinding possible this week, while the stop-loss trigger points at SPX 4996 and NDX 17275 are still within reach. They noted that both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 posted their first two-week losing streak since October last year, even though the S&P 500 hit a record high last week. The model shows that the CTA remains bullish on the Euro Stoxx 50 and Nikkei 225.

PANews reported on January 9 that Bitcoin (BTC) has recently decoupled from the Nasdaq (NDX) index, ending the trend of moving in tandem with Wall Street tech heavy-stock indices for most of the past four years, according to CoinDesk. According to data tracked by Fairlead Strategies, the 40-day correlation between Bitcoin and Nasdaq is currently zero, indicating a lack of correlation between the two asset classes. The correlation between the Bitcoin and the Nasdaq has been positively correlated since the beginning of 2020, peaking at 0.8 during the Crypto AssetsBear Market of 2022. The collapse in correlation also means that Bitcoin can now act as a diversifier for portfolios. Fairlead Strategies expects Bitcoin to remain unaffected by the Nasdaq for some time.
