Bitcoin Now Third Most Traded Asset by Asset Managers: Bank of America

According to a fund manager survey for July posted by Bank of America (BofA), “long Bitcoin” has dropped to the number three spot as the most crowded trades. The Global Fund Manager Survey is Bank of America Securities’ monthly report is a survey carried out on about 200 institutional, mutual, and hedge fund managers around the world.

The updated ranking now has “long tech stocks” in the number one spot, followed by “long ESG” as number two, “long Bitcoin” at number three, and “long commodities” at number four.

According to the survey, fund managers were less bullish on growth, earnings, and inflation compared to the year before. Overall, 74% of managers expect growth and inflation to remain “above trend.”

In May, “long Bitcoin” was the most crowded trading asset, followed by “long tech stocks” and “long ESG.” By June, “long commodities” overtook “long Bitcoin” as the most crowded trade, pushing it in the number two spot. In that month, “long tech stocks” came third, while “long ESG” moved to number four.

In other news, BofA recently announced that it had assembled a cryptocurrency research team. Last week, the bank noted that:

“We are uniquely positioned to provide thought leadership due to our strong industry research analysis, market-leading global payments platform, and our blockchain expertise.”

Bank of America, ridiculed for being anti-crypto a while back, recently released a report noting that digital currencies “could boost economic growth” in emerging economies.
