Morgan Stanley Recommends 4% Crypto Allocation for Opportunistic Growth

  • Morgan Stanley's Global Investment Committee advises allocating up to 4% of portfolios to cryptocurrency for investors seeking "opportunistic growth."
  • Suggested allocations vary: 2% for balanced growth, 3% for market growth, and 0% for wealth conservation or income-focused investors.
  • The focus is primarily on Bitcoin, described as "digital gold."
  • Comparatively, BlackRock and Fidelity suggest a 2% allocation, while Grayscale and VanEck recommend 5% and 6%, respectively.
  • This reflects a shift in perception among major financial institutions towards recognizing cryptocurrency as a viable asset class.
