Goldman Sachs: Crypto Market Meltdown Not A Threat To The U.S. Economy

The United States economy is currently at tethers with soaring prices of goods and services and a negative growth rate, indicating an imminent recession is on the horizon.

But the instability in the crypto market appears to have been the focus of U.S. policymakers, as the United States has occupied a quarter of the global digital asset market.

However, the Wall Street banking behemoth Goldman Sachs sees no reason for panic over the crypto market. Contrary to what the U.S. lawmakers are making of the situation, the crypto market will have a negligible impact on America’s economy.

According to the economists at Goldman Sachs, up to $1 trillion was lost in the market value of the crypto industry over the last year. At the same time, the total household net worth in the U.S. is $150 trillion, as per the record from the previous year.

Therefore, i\the economists are confident that the crypto market valuation is small compared to the entire household worth of the United States. It is expected that any market downtrend from the crypto industry will have little effect on the U.S. economy.

Crypto vs. Stock Impact on the Economy

The recent market correction has seen over $7 trillion wiped from the equity market. Economists are keen on finding out the exact impact of the sell-off on both the crypto and equity markets on the macroeconomy.

According to a Bloomberg quote of research on the collapse of the equity market, the result shows a spillover effect culminating in a drop of about 3 cents in individuals’ spending for every dollar lost in the stock market.

As a result, the five-month sell-off that has taken place this year means a reduction in spending by more than $300 billion. Furthermore, the same study revealed that last year’s total U.S household net worth comprises 33% stocks, while crypto can only account for a measly 0.3%.

This is to say, the equity market pattern is the driver of value changes in the entire household net worth in the United States, with cryptocurrency contributing marginally to it.

Which is a Better Investment?

Many things have to be considered before deciding to invest in any market because both have peculiarities peculiar to their industry. The equity market seems to have the upper hand as the destination of choice for investors.

Stocks have been in existence for hundreds of years, unlike cryptocurrency, which can be likened to the new kid on the block. Equities have grown to become pillars of financial frameworks for individuals and countries due to their long-term objectives of bringing modest gains to investors.

The volatility in the cryptocurrency price has made it a no-go area for many who are averse to risks, as any turmoil in the market will lead to a massive loss of funds.
