One of the world's largest asset managers, BlackRock, in its report "Global Forecast for 2025" highlighted artificial intelligence (AI) and bitcoin as key factors that can change the face of the global economy.
Artificial intelligence: the new Industrial Revolution?
According to BlackRock analysts, AI has the potential to surpass even the industrial revolution. It not only automates routine tasks, but also opens up new horizons for scientific research and innovation. The rapid growth in the complexity of AI models (from 10 parameters in the 1950s to 1 trillion today) indicates the rapid development of this technology.
The key thesis is that AI can become a catalyst for a new industrial revolution.
Bitcoin: from Digital Gold to a means of payment
BlackRock sees bitcoin not only as a speculative asset, but also as a promising tool for diversifying its investment portfolio. The limited supply of bitcoins and the growing demand for them make this cryptocurrency look like gold. In addition, bitcoin is increasingly being considered as a means of payment, which strengthens its position in the financial market.
The key thesis: Bitcoin has the potential to become a reliable means of saving and payment.
The correlation of bitcoin with traditional assets is gradually decreasing, which makes it attractive to investors who want to reduce risks.
The macroeconomic context
According to BlackRock analysts, high inflation rates and significant investments in the development of artificial intelligence will have an impact on the monetary policy of central banks. In particular, the US Federal Reserve rate is expected to remain elevated.
Conclusion
The BlackRock report shows the growing interest of institutional investors in new technologies and digital assets. Artificial intelligence and bitcoin may become key drivers of economic growth in the coming years. However, investors should keep in mind that these markets are fraught with high risks.
Sincerely, Financial trader was with you
