Americans expect stocks to rise in 2025, along with global political strife
History shows that rising stock market indices will be accompanied by rising prices for bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, albeit in a more volatile manner.
Two-thirds of Americans expect the stock market to rise in 2025, but about the same percentage of people expect it to be accompanied by more political strife within the United States and international discord, a poll has found.

Sixty-six percent of respondents expect 2025 to be the year the stock market rises, a sign that the stock market will rise in 2025. The U.S. economic outlook is up about 30 percentage points from its 2023 forecast, which was made in December 2022 during a period of high inflation and low confidence in the economy.
The latest poll also showed that only 23% of Americans expect “positive” political cooperation within the United States under the Trump administration, while only 32% expect 2025 to be somewhat peaceful internationally.
Still, the downward figures represent an improvement from the 2023 vote of 9% and 14% in favor of political cooperation and international peace.
Sentiment could have an impact on crypto markets.
