📊 Global M2 Money Supply (YoY) Is Starting to Decline
The annual change in Global M2 Money Supply is beginning to fall. Although global M2 is still growing compared to one year ago, the pace of expansion is slowing, indicating that liquidity creation across major economies is decelerating.
Rising M2 has often been associated with bullish movements in Bitcoin, though the correlation is not always consistent. Historically, when Global M2 Money Supply (YoY) turns negative, it aligns with Bitcoin cycle bottoms, especially after halvings in the last three cycles. However, reaching negative territory could take many months, and it may not happen at all, making it essential to monitor this metric over time to understand the state of global liquidity.
