As the U.S. stock market soars following the promising results from Pfizer's coronavirus vaccine trials, Bitcoin's rally is slowing after the currency failed to break past the $16,000 level. 

Bitcoin is currently trading at $15,361 and is down 1.03% after nearing $16,000 earlier on Monday. Edward Moya, a senior market analyst at Oanda Corp, told Bloomberg that Bitcoin's price action is mirroring gold demonstrating that investors see the cryptocurrency as a safety trade. With a vaccine for coronavirus seemingly imminent, traders are reducing their crypto exposure, Moya said.
