Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin Resilient to Stock Market Weakness Bitcoin has jumped to two-week highs above $47,000 despite classic risk-off action in traditional markets. S&P 500 e-mini futures are nursing a loss, indicating a lower opening for the benchmark stock index.
The cryptocurrency’s resilience has raised investors’ hopes for a stellar rally in October, with several analysts and traders referring to October as “Uptober” on Twitter – a newly coined slang, representing expectations for a price rally this month.
October is a seasonally bullish period, and bitcoin’s recent stability amid stock-market losses and China’s blanket ban on virtual currency businesses is reminiscent of the cryptocurrency’s resilience in the face of the negative news seen just before the beginning of the bull run from $10,000 in September-October 2020. Bitcoin's performance relative to S&P 500 in final four months of 2020 (Source: TradingView) It remains to be seen if history will repeat itself. While rising inflation expectations across the globe and falling real or inflation-adjusted bond yields are supportive of a renewed bull run, the Fed’s impending taper – or scaling back – of stimulus may slow down the ascent.
Fears of faster Fed taper may grip markets, bringing pain for asset prices, in general, if the U.S. core personal consumption expenditure data due at 12:30 UTC today blows past expectations.

Technician's Take by Damanick Dantes, CMT Bitcoin Rallies Above $47K; Resistance at $50K Strong demand from short-term buyers has pushed bitcoin above $47,000 for the first time in two weeks. Technical indicators show improving upside momentum on the daily chart, which is the first positive reading since July. Bitcoin's daily chart with RSI (Source: TradingView, CoinDesk) BTC is back above the 200-day moving average, which provides an advantage for buyers aiming to return on pullbacks.The relative strength index (RSI) is not yet overbought on the daily chart, which could keep buyers active over the short-term. On the weekly chart, the RSI is neutral, and upside momentum remains weak. This suggests a period of consolidation could persist below the $50,000-$55,000 resistance range.
