According to findings of a recent Bank of America (BOA) survey, buying bitcoin has now surpassed tech stocks as the most crowded trade. This new ranking means tech stocks have been relegated into second place for the first time since October 2019.
Bitcoin Bubble RankingStill, a majority of the interviewed fund managers believe bitcoin “to be in a bubble.” Consequently, as the Reuters report notes, a majority of these respondents predict that the value of bitcoin will halve within 12 months.
Since the start of 2021, the value of bitcoin has surged 30% from just under $29,300 to reach the all-time high (ATH) of over $41,900 on January 8. This 30% growth in value after just 8 days follows the crypto’s price rising by over 300% in 2020. However, at the time of writing, bitcoin is trading at just $34,400.
Meanwhile, another survey by Deutsche Bank finds that many investors currently see bitcoin as the number one bubble. For instance, when asked to rank bitcoin on the 1-10 bubble scale, nearly half of respondents gave the crypto-asset a 10. Tesla is the next asset to be labeled a bubble by respondents after the tech giant’s stock “soared nearly 750%.” Tesla “is seen as emblematic of highly-priced tech stocks.”
However, in sentiments similar to those expressed by respondents to the BOA survey, a majority of respondents to the Deutsche Bank study predicted that in the next twelve months, bitcoin and the Tesla stock ie “more likely to halve than double in value.”

Furthermore, a record 92% expected higher global inflation over the next year, though Deutsche Bank’s survey also showed 71% expected the U.S. Federal Reserve to resist the temptation to start removing the stimulus that has helped markets rally.
