#JPMorgan includes Bitcoin in its long-term return forecasts for the first time
Those old Wall Street foxes finally can’t keep up the act. 🤫
In its latest 10-year outlook, JPMorgan has given BTC a “long-term pass” for the very first time. It forecasts a baseline annualized return of 10% over the next decade! 📈
What does that mean? It beats U.S. stocks (7.5%) and gold (5.5%) outright. But in traditional finance, returns and risk are always joined at the hip. JPMorgan immediately threw cold water on the idea: that 10% return comes with volatility as high as 55%. So its conclusion is a bit of a mixed message: “It’s a good asset, but it’s too volatile, so it still doesn’t belong in a core portfolio.” 🙅♂️
Still, the “if it’s so bad, why do you keep buying it?” rule never fails. 🤷♂️
The report says “not recommended,” but the Q2 holdings data don’t lie: JPMorgan quietly added $400 million to its position in BlackRock’s IBIT, bringing the total to $650 million. Warning investors in its report while frantically buying on the market—that’s just like a landlord saying “this place has bad feng shui” while secretly signing a 10-year lease. 🤫
As for the long-term price target, it puts Bitcoin at $266,000. 💎
Don’t get hung up on “not included in core portfolios.” Those who understand the signal are looking at what lies beneath: when one of the most conservative, established investment banks puts Bitcoin into the same model as stocks and bonds for the first time, it’s effectively handing institutional investors a “legitimate ticket to enter.” 🎫
The door isn’t wide open yet, but the key is already in the lock. 🔑$BTC
