3 Bitcoin-Related Stocks to Gain From Crypto Rally

The cryptocurrency market is staging a solid comeback, with Bitcoin (BTC) on track to hit $70,000 after falling below $60,000 last month. The Federal Reserve’s jumbo rate cut announcement in September amid the upcoming U.S. election has raised optimism surrounding riskier assets, especially tech stocks and cryptocurrencies.

Given this scenario, it would be ideal to invest in Bitcoin-centric stocks such as Robinhood Markets, Inc. HOOD, NVIDIA Corporation NVDA and CME Group Inc. CME that have strong growth potential in the near term.

Bitcoin Rebounds From Recent Lows

Bitcoin was trading at $67,249.66 on Thursday. The world’s most popular cryptocurrency had reached $68,376 on Wednesday. It is now well on track to hit new highs with optimism building around riskier assets following the Fed’s 50-basis-point rate cut last month and the looming U.S. Presidential election, which is less than a month away.

Also, increased global liquidity and China’s economic stimulus have been fueling the ongoing rally. Bitcoin last traded above $70,000 in July after reaching an all-time high of $73,750 on March 14. The cryptocurrency is now up 11% for the week, the largest reading since April and a 10-week high.

Bitcoin-Related Stocks to Benefit

The Federal Reserve has been maintaining a dovish stance since it announced its first rate cut in more than four years last month. Market participants are hopeful about two more 25 basis point interest rate cuts this year, which is likely to further boost the crypto rally.

Lower interest rates favor growth assets such as cryptocurrencies because they decrease the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets. In a low-interest-rate setting, investors often seek out assets that offer greater potential returns, even if they come with increased risks.
