According to market reports, Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, stated in the 2026 outlook that Bitcoin's low correlation with major asset classes such as gold, stocks, and bonds is expected to provide higher risk-adjusted returns for asset allocators, making it an effective portfolio diversification tool in the coming years. ARK's analysis of weekly returns from January 2020 to January 2026 shows that Bitcoin's correlation with gold is only 0.14, much lower than the S&P 500 index's correlation with bonds at 0.27. Wood believes Bitcoin's strictly limited supply growth, with a new issuance rate of around 0.8% annually for the next two years decreasing to about 0.4% per year thereafter, contributes to its inherent scarcity. She notes that the predictable supply pattern, coupled with increasing demand, has driven Bitcoin's price up by 360% since the end of 2022.
