The ICE/BofA U.S. High Yield Index Option-Adjusted Spread (OAS) has recently fallen to 3.2% from a six-month peak of 3.4%. This decline in the OAS, which measures the yield difference between U.S. dollar-denominated high-yield corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury securities, signals a positive shift in economic sentiment and corporate credit health. As a result, this drop supports increased risk-taking in both cryptocurrency and equity markets. Bitcoin and the Nasdaq have experienced a renewed upswing due to this change. However, the OAS previously surged by 100 basis points over four weeks to mid-March, correlating with a drop in bitcoin prices to below $80K. Analysts anticipate that the OAS spread might widen in the coming weeks, reflecting potential economic challenges ahead.

The magic number this cycle… $184,181.

$QQQ #BTC
On a TTM basis the NASDAQ has outperformed Bitcoin NOV21 thru MAR25
The NASDAQ’s TTM CAGR is 6%, while Bitcoin’s CAGR is 5%
If this continues, institutional money will flee. They will not choose to underperform the tech sector while also stomaching 10x the volatility

Remember the “number” needed for QQQ inclusion (roughly $230/share)?
> $96,337 bitcoin price is (roughly) the new “number” to have a shot at S&P 500 inclusion
Should be an interesting four weeks.
