Extreme Fear Hits Fear and Greed Index Again: 4th Time in 12 Months — What It Signals for BTC and ETH
According to @StockMKTNewz, the Fear and Greed Index has dropped into Extreme Fear for the fourth time in the past 12 months, with prior episodes on December 19, February 25–March 21, March 31–April 24, and starting again on October 16. According to CNN Business, the index measures U.S. stock market sentiment on a 0–100 scale, with 0–25 categorized as Extreme Fear. According to CNN Business, Extreme Fear readings indicate elevated risk aversion and are sometimes viewed as contrarian signals when markets may be overly pessimistic. According to Kaiko Research and Coinbase Institutional, crypto assets such as BTC and ETH often track broader risk appetite in U.S. equities, so sustained Extreme Fear in stocks can coincide with thinner liquidity and higher intraday volatility in crypto. |
