10x Research: Average annual return of Bitcoin after the midterm elections is 53.9%
10x Research, a cryptocurrency market research organization, stated that the average return of Bitcoin after the U.S. midterm elections is a decline of 13.6% in 1 month, a decline of 21.6% in 2 months, a decline of 13.3% in 4 months, an increase of 3.5% in 6 months, and an increase of 53.9% in 1 year.
10x Research noted that this phase first experiences a pullback, followed by outperforming the S&P 500 index, the Nasdaq index, and gold within 12 months, with average returns during the same period being an increase of 14.3%, an increase of 23.1%, and an increase of 18.5%, respectively.
10x Research indicated that from an 80-year historical perspective, the surge in volatility after elections typically corresponds to the exhaustion of cycles rather than structural institutional breaks. The organization stated that after the Democrats gained control of Congress, higher baseline deficit spending and welfare expansion would accelerate the trend of currency devaluation.
10x Research also reviewed historical precedents of cycles after past midterm elections and explained why patient capital should view this pullback as an entry point, with discussions centered around the clearing events proposed after the midterm elections.
