Bitcoin's correlation with global liquidity is stronger than that of gold and stocks
According to a report by venture capitalist Lyn Alden, Bitcoin (BTC) has an 83% correlation with global liquidity, surpassing all major asset classes. The report points out that Bitcoin typically rises during periods of liquidity expansion and adjusts when liquidity contracts, making it the "purest indicator of liquidity". From May 2013 to July 2024, the correlation between Bitcoin and global liquidity reached 0.94 but weakened in the short term, with rolling averages over 12 months and six months at 0.51 and 0.36 respectively. Liquidity is measured by M2 supply which includes cash and bank account funds etc. The report believes that global liquidity is a key driver of long-term price performance for Bitcoin; investors can use this information to analyze market cycles for Bitcoin. However, this correlation may weaken under significant industry events or extreme market conditions.

Crude oil is "coming back", but refined oil is "not coming back"; the global refining gap is widening.
According to Goldman Sachs, global refined oil exports have declined by about 6 million barrels per day year-on-year, with the Gulf region and Russia contributing three-quarters of the decrease. Unlike crude oil, which can be rerouted, damaged refineries cannot be relocated, and the Gulf region's refined oil exports have only recovered to 40% of pre-war levels. Goldman Sachs expects global refinery utilization rates to recover only by the second half of 2027; based on this, it has more than doubled its forecast for diesel profit margins in 2027.
