Safe-Haven Performance in the Age of Bitcoin
Minhas, Sabrina; Rodziewicz, David; Ruiz, Rebecca; Maniff, Jesse Leigh (2020-04-15)
In past periods of financial stress, investors seeking “safe havens” have shifted toward government bonds and gold. In recent years, some have questioned whether Bitcoin could also serve as a safe haven. We compare the behavior of government bonds, gold, and Bitcoin from January 1995 through February 2020 and find that the 10-year Treasury note behaved like a safe haven consistently, gold occasionally, and Bitcoin never. During March 2020, however, none of the assets can be classified with confidence as a safe haven.
